00:10:47,413 --> 00:10:49,949
Wonder what that's about.
>> Jack: Well, I don't think it
165
00:10:50,016 --> 00:10:52,284
has much to do with Marchetti.
She had that gleam in her eye,
166
00:10:52,351 --> 00:10:54,353
you know, the one she gets when
she's up to something.
167
00:10:54,420 --> 00:10:57,623
>> Summer: Mm.
I cannot get drawn into any of
168
00:10:57,690 --> 00:10:59,692
her drama.
I am still walking on cloud nine
169
00:10:59,759 --> 00:11:03,662
from our vow renewal ceremony.
Thank you again, by the way, for
170
00:11:03,729 --> 00:11:05,164
helping us to make it so
special.
171
00:11:05,231 --> 00:11:08,200
>> Jack: The Abbott home is your
home.
172
00:11:08,267 --> 00:11:11,504
You don't need to thank me.
I was glad we could do it there.
173
00:11:11,570 --> 00:11:15,474
And for the record, you were
every bit as lovely a bride
174
00:11:15,541 --> 00:11:18,577
there as you were in Milan.
>> Summer: Aww.
175
00:11:18,644 --> 00:11:21,414
Well, I am very grateful to you
for hosting and for the
176
00:11:21,480 --> 00:11:24,316
compliment, but that's not
exactly what I was thanking you
177
00:11:24,383 --> 00:11:26,719
for.
>> Jack: Oh? What then?
178
00:11:26,786 --> 00:11:29,655
>> Summer: I just wanted to
thank you for being the best
179
00:11:29,722 --> 00:11:34,060
father to the best husband and
partner that I could ever hope
180
00:11:34,126 --> 00:11:39,131
to have.
>> Diane: The vow renewal was so
181
00:11:39,198 --> 00:11:41,700
beautiful.
You and Summer make such a
182
00:11:41,767 --> 00:11:43,702
lovely couple.
And what about my little
183
00:11:43,769 --> 00:11:46,172
Harrison?
He was so adorable.
184
00:11:46,238 --> 00:11:48,841
[ Sighs ]
I can't tell you how much it
185
00:11:48,908 --> 00:11:50,776
means to me that I was there to
witness it.
186
00:11:50,843 --> 00:11:53,679
It's something I would have
thought was impossible just a
187
00:11:53,746 --> 00:11:59,418
couple months ago.
You okay?
188
00:11:59,485 --> 00:12:02,688
I hope you didn't let
Tucker McCall's party-crashing
189
00:12:02,755 --> 00:12:07,960
stunt put a damper on the day.
It was perfect, despite his
190
00:12:08,027 --> 00:12:10,629
unwelcome appearance.
>> Kyle: Nothing could wreck the
191
00:12:10,696 --> 00:12:14,233
ceremony for me.
But I did hear a lot of
192
00:12:14,300 --> 00:12:17,303
innuendos being thrown around
the reception relating to you
193
00:12:17,369 --> 00:12:21,240
and Tucker's past.
>> Diane: Oh [scoffs] that is
194
00:12:21,307 --> 00:12:26,479
ancient history, long over.
Half of the women in this town
195
00:12:26,545 --> 00:12:29,115
have a past with Tucker.
I hope you don't hold it against
196
00:12:29,181 --> 00:12:30,950
me.
>> Kyle: You know very well I
197
00:12:31,016 --> 00:12:35,554
can forgive for past mistakes,
but Phyllis seems to think this
198
00:12:35,621 --> 00:12:39,725
is a very present connection
between you and Tucker.
199
00:12:39,792 --> 00:12:44,029
Please tell me that's not true.
200
00:12:44,096 --> 00:12:46,565
>> Tucker: I realize I can't
just pop in here and expect you
201
00:12:46,632 --> 00:12:50,202
to take me back all of a sudden
after all this time.
202
00:12:50,269 --> 00:12:52,638
>> Ashley: It's good that you
know that.
203
00:12:52,705 --> 00:12:57,143
It's not gonna happen.
I moved on with my life, Tucker,
204
00:12:57,209 --> 00:13:01,413
and I never looked back.
>> Tucker: I'm sorry to hear
205
00:13:01,480 --> 00:13:04,016
that.
>> Ashley: I am curious about
206
00:13:04,083 --> 00:13:08,721
something, though.
Um, I find it very interesting
207
00:13:08,787 --> 00:13:11,390
that you show up here just a few
months after Diane did.
208
00:13:11,457 --> 00:13:13,559
It's almost like you followed
her back to Genoa City, isn't
209
00:13:13,626 --> 00:13:16,996
it?
>> Tucker: That's not the case.
210
00:13:17,062 --> 00:13:20,599
No, I was, uh -- I was as
surprised as I'm sure you all
211
00:13:20,666 --> 00:13:25,137
were that she was still alive.
And trust me -- I have zero
212
00:13:25,204 --> 00:13:27,873
interest in revisiting anything
with that woman.
213
00:13:27,940 --> 00:13:31,577
That was over long before you
and I even broke up.
214
00:13:31,644 --> 00:13:36,849
I swear.
You believe that?
215
00:13:36,916 --> 00:13:40,085
>> Ashley: No, I don't.
But I don't need to belabor it,
216
00:13:40,152 --> 00:13:42,354
either.
If you're not gonna tell me the
217
00:13:42,421 --> 00:13:44,590
real reason why you're in
Genoa City, then we have nothing
218
00:13:44,657 --> 00:13:46,659
else to discuss.
You said what you need to say,
219
00:13:46,725 --> 00:13:51,830
I responded, and you can go.
220
00:13:51,897 --> 00:13:59,038
>> Audra: Thank you.
221
00:13:59,104 --> 00:14:02,508
>> Nikki: Excuse me.
Are you Audra Charles?
222
00:14:02,575 --> 00:14:06,178
>> Audra: Yes, I am.
>> Nikki: Well, it's a pleasure
223
00:14:06,245 --> 00:14:07,379
to meet you.
I'm Nikki --
224
00:14:07,446 --> 00:14:11,550
>> Audra: Nikki Newman, co-CEO
of Newman Enterprises, wife of
225
00:14:11,617 --> 00:14:15,487
the esteemed Victor Newman.
>> Nikki: Well, I'm impressed.
226
00:14:15,554 --> 00:14:18,457
>> Audra: I pride myself on
knowing the major players in the
227
00:14:18,524 --> 00:14:20,993
business world.
>> Nikki: Well, then you also
228
00:14:21,060 --> 00:14:23,762
know that I am Noah Newman's
grandmother.
229
00:14:23,829 --> 00:14:26,232
I understand you knew him in
London.
230
00:14:26,298 --> 00:14:29,868
>> Audra: Yes, I did know him in
London.
231
00:14:29,935 --> 00:14:33,372
And I was pleasantly surprised
to discover he's back here in
232
00:14:33,439 --> 00:14:37,309
Genoa City.
I even got the chance to go to
233
00:14:37,376 --> 00:14:40,145
the opening of his incredible
club last night.
234
00:14:40,212 --> 00:14:42,514
>> Nikki: Oh, my goodness.
What a coincidence.
235
00:14:42,581 --> 00:14:45,985
It's a small world.
>> Audra: I'm actually here on
236
00:14:46,051 --> 00:14:49,922
business, doing some consulting
work for Chancellor-Winters.
237
00:14:49,989 --> 00:14:54,293
It's lovely to meet you.
I've admired your career from
238
00:14:54,360 --> 00:14:57,463
afar.
And of course Noah adores his
239
00:14:57,529 --> 00:15:01,533
family, so I had the privilege
of hearing about the Newmans
240
00:15:01,600 --> 00:15:04,670
from that perspective, as well.
>> Nikki: Ahh.
241
00:15:04,737 --> 00:15:08,907
Well, I'm afraid grandsons don't
confide in their grandmothers as
242
00:15:08,974 --> 00:15:12,511
they do their friends, so I'm
sure you know much more about me
243
00:15:12,578 --> 00:15:14,513
and my family than I do about
you.
244
00:15:14,580 --> 00:15:17,216
>> Audra: Yeah, I guess that's
possible.
245
00:15:17,283 --> 00:15:21,520
>> Nikki: And since you're
working at Chancellor-Winters, I
246
00:15:21,587 --> 00:15:24,590
hope you can appreciate the
importance of keeping the legacy
247
00:15:24,657 --> 00:15:26,425
of my dear friend Katherine
alive.
248
00:15:26,492 --> 00:15:29,962
>> Audra: Of course.
Katherine Chancellor is a
249
00:15:30,029 --> 00:15:32,131
legend.
>> Nikki: Mm.
250
00:15:32,197 --> 00:15:34,733
Do you have time to sit down
with me?
251
00:15:34,800 --> 00:15:37,803
I'd love to hear more about you.
252
00:15:42,875 --> 00:15:45,277
>> Jack: Well, I thank you for
the compliment, but I think you
253
00:15:45,344 --> 00:15:48,414
deserve most of the credit for
making Kyle the fine man that he
254
00:15:48,480 --> 00:15:52,384
is today.
>> Summer: Mm. Thanks.
255
00:15:52,451 --> 00:15:54,653
I hope you liked the photos that
I forwarded to you from the
256
00:15:54,720 --> 00:15:56,355
ceremony.
Let me know which ones are your
257
00:15:56,422 --> 00:15:57,823
favorites, and I'll get them
printed out.
258
00:15:57,890 --> 00:16:00,926
They all so good.
I -- I can't decide.
259
00:16:00,993 --> 00:16:05,798
I especially love the one of you
and Harrison and the one of you
260
00:16:05,864 --> 00:16:09,201
and Kyle and Harrison, the three
generations of Abbotts.
261
00:16:09,268 --> 00:16:11,203
And then the one of Kyle and
Harrison.
262
00:16:11,270 --> 00:16:14,940
God, that one's so cute.
>> Jack: I love them all, and
263
00:16:15,007 --> 00:16:17,609
I've decided I'm going to become
an official grandfather and get
264
00:16:17,676 --> 00:16:20,746
one of those digital frames so I
can have them on a loop all day
265
00:16:20,813 --> 00:16:23,015
long.
>> Summer: [ Laughs ]
266
00:16:23,082 --> 00:16:26,885
>> Jack: Summer, you have been a
part of my life since the day
267
00:16:26,952 --> 00:16:30,723
you were born, literally.
That you are now the center of
268
00:16:30,789 --> 00:16:35,127
my son's life brings me a kind
of joy I cannot describe.
269
00:16:35,194 --> 00:16:39,698
To see you two happy and in love
brings me so much happiness.
270
00:16:39,765 --> 00:16:43,936
To have the three of you living
in the Abbott family estate --
271
00:16:44,002 --> 00:16:49,475
well, you make a house a home.
I hope you know you are welcome
272
00:16:49,541 --> 00:16:51,777
to stay there as long as you
like.
273
00:16:51,844 --> 00:16:54,880
>> Summer: Thank you, Jack.
We love it there.
274
00:16:54,947 --> 00:16:58,584
>> Jack: It has been the thrill
of my life to watch the two of
275
00:16:58,650 --> 00:17:02,187
you grow and mature into a
loving couple, there for each
276
00:17:02,254 --> 00:17:05,224
other in the great moments,
there for each other in the
277
00:17:05,290 --> 00:17:10,763
tougher moments, but most of
all, to see you become smart,
278
00:17:10,829 --> 00:17:15,167
attentive, adoring parents to
Harrison.
279
00:17:15,234 --> 00:17:20,672
It gives me hope for the future.
>> Diane: I can't tell you how
280
00:17:20,739 --> 00:17:22,975
disturbing those allegations are
to me.
281
00:17:23,041 --> 00:17:26,645
Just when I'm beginning to gain
your trust and forgiveness,
282
00:17:26,712 --> 00:17:29,915
Tucker shows up and suddenly
there's doubt, all because of
283
00:17:29,982 --> 00:17:31,784
some history?
And I do mean history.
284
00:17:31,850 --> 00:17:34,019
>> Kyle: That's not exactly a
denial.
285
00:17:34,086 --> 00:17:36,822
>> Diane: [ Sighs ] Alright, I
will tell you what I told Jack
286
00:17:36,889 --> 00:17:41,527
and Phyllis and Nikki.
I am shocked that that man had
287
00:17:41,593 --> 00:17:44,263
the gall to show his face in
Genoa City again.
288
00:17:44,329 --> 00:17:49,067
I sincerely regret my past with
him, and I wish he had never
289
00:17:49,134 --> 00:17:51,036
come back into our lives.
>> Kyle: I'm not trying to
290
00:17:51,103 --> 00:17:53,439
accuse you of anything, Mom.
I just want to know the truth.
291
00:17:53,505 --> 00:17:56,542
That's why I'm coming to you
directly to ask rather than let
292
00:17:56,608 --> 00:17:59,878
rumors run rampant.
I value the open communication
293
00:17:59,945 --> 00:18:03,348
we've built.
>> Diane: Trust me.
294
00:18:03,415 --> 00:18:07,586
The only current connection I
have to Tucker is one of pure
295
00:18:07,653 --> 00:18:09,555
loathing.
>> Kyle: Mm.
296
00:18:09,621 --> 00:18:13,292
Well, glad to hear it 'cause I
know enough about McCall to not
297
00:18:13,358 --> 00:18:16,462
particularly like the fact that
he's returned.
298
00:18:16,528 --> 00:18:21,533
>> Nikki: Katherine was a titan
299
00:18:21,600 --> 00:18:25,103
in the business world.
And in her day, that did not
300
00:18:25,170 --> 00:18:29,608
come easy for a woman.
It took real power and skill to
301
00:18:29,675 --> 00:18:32,444
navigate that world and come out
on top.
302
00:18:32,511 --> 00:18:36,148
Oh, she was such a role model
for me.
303
00:18:36,215 --> 00:18:40,652
But enough of my old friend.
I'd like to know more about you.
304
00:18:40,719 --> 00:18:46,358
Now, I remember Noah said that
you were an artist like him, but
305
00:18:46,425 --> 00:18:49,495
you say that you're doing some
work for Chancellor-Winters.
306
00:18:49,561 --> 00:18:52,564
Doesn't sound very much like
art.
307
00:18:52,631 --> 00:18:55,834
>> Audra: I mean, I -- I was an
artist.
308
00:18:55,901 --> 00:18:59,505
And, in fact, I hope I still am.
But, I mean, it was just never
309
00:18:59,571 --> 00:19:03,842
something that paid the bills.
I always needed a day job.
310
00:19:03,909 --> 00:19:08,647
And after years of scraping by,
I went to business school to
311
00:19:08,714 --> 00:19:14,720
please my parents, a fallback
career, which they insisted on.
312
00:19:14,786 --> 00:19:18,790
As it turned out, I enjoyed it,
and I was good at it.
313
00:19:18,857 --> 00:19:23,161
>> Nikki: Mm.
Do you ever wish you had pursued
314
00:19:23,228 --> 00:19:26,398
your art full time?
Do you miss it?
315
00:19:26,465 --> 00:19:30,869
>> Audra: I-I keep working on my
art as a creative outlet, but
316
00:19:30,936 --> 00:19:33,605
sometimes parents really do know
best.
317
00:19:33,672 --> 00:19:36,642
>> Nikki: [ Chuckles ]
Well, I think it's wonderful you
318
00:19:36,708 --> 00:19:40,012
were able to satisfy both sides
of yourself.
319
00:19:40,078 --> 00:19:45,817
Now, Noah also mentioned that
you worked for a nonprofit
320
00:19:45,884 --> 00:19:48,287
organization that supports
artists.
321
00:19:48,353 --> 00:19:50,756
Um...
Ugh. I'm forgetting the name.
322
00:19:50,822 --> 00:19:53,292
>> Audra: You must mean
Wild Beauty.
323
00:19:53,358 --> 00:19:56,962
>> Nikki: Yes, yes, that's it.
It sounds like a great
324
00:19:57,029 --> 00:20:00,032
organization that I should
consider supporting.
325
00:20:00,098 --> 00:20:02,768
Can you tell me a little more
about that?
326
00:20:02,834 --> 00:20:06,605
>> Tucker: It's funny -- after
327
00:20:06,672 --> 00:20:12,644
all this time imagining seeing
you and practicing in my mind
328
00:20:12,711 --> 00:20:16,114
what I was gonna say, I never
imagined this would be your
329
00:20:16,181 --> 00:20:19,551
reaction.
>> Ashley: You thought I'd say,
330
00:20:19,618 --> 00:20:21,720
"Welcome back, let's give it
another shot, Tucker"?
331
00:20:21,787 --> 00:20:25,924
>> Tucker: No, of course not.
I just...
332
00:20:25,991 --> 00:20:33,031
Well, I had prepared myself for
your anger, fury, even hatred.
333
00:20:33,098 --> 00:20:39,438
But I wasn't prepared for this,
for apathy.
334
00:20:39,504 --> 00:20:45,444
>> Ashley: "Apathy's" a good
word, and so is "indifference."
335
00:20:45,510 --> 00:20:49,748
>> Tucker: That's even worse.
[ Clears throat ]
336
00:20:49,815 --> 00:20:51,984
'Cause at least if you were
angry, I'd know that you still
337
00:20:52,050 --> 00:20:55,654
had feelings for me.
You know, the fine line
338
00:20:55,721 --> 00:21:03,061
between love and hate.
339
00:21:03,128 --> 00:21:09,468
Okay. [ Clears throat ]
Well, before I go, I...
340
00:21:09,534 --> 00:21:11,770
I'm gonna give you something,
something from our time
341
00:21:11,837 --> 00:21:16,975
together.
Um, I'm hoping it will at least
342
00:21:17,042 --> 00:21:24,916
show you that you've never left
my mind.
343
00:21:24,983 --> 00:21:31,323
You remember that?
>> Ashley: Of course I do.
344
00:21:31,390 --> 00:21:34,893
It's from the...
>> Tucker: The Japanese tea
345
00:21:34,960 --> 00:21:37,429
ceremony, yeah.
>> Ashley: Yeah. I remember.
346
00:21:37,496 --> 00:21:41,733
>> Tucker: Wasn't that a
beautiful and serene moment?
347
00:21:41,800 --> 00:21:48,373
>> Ashley: No, thank you.
>> Tucker: No, please.
348
00:21:48,440 --> 00:21:53,078
>> Ashley: Okay. Suit yourself.
I'll keep it.
349
00:21:53,145 --> 00:21:58,717
Uh, is there anything else?
>> Tucker: No.
350
00:21:58,784 --> 00:22:05,424
May I speak to you again,
351
00:22:05,490 --> 00:22:10,696
please, at some point?
Just after you've had a chance
352
00:22:10,762 --> 00:22:16,735
to -- to process what I've told
you.
353
00:22:16,802 --> 00:22:19,337
Please promise me you'll think
it over, at least.
354
00:22:19,404 --> 00:22:20,739
>> Ashley: I don't need to think
anything over.
355
00:22:20,806 --> 00:22:22,641
I've heard everything I need to
hear.
356
00:22:22,708 --> 00:22:31,149
Goodbye, Tucker.
357
00:22:31,216 --> 00:22:40,859
[ Door opens ]
358
00:22:40,926 --> 00:22:42,928
>> Ashley: [ Sighs heavily ] Mm.
359
00:22:50,836 --> 00:22:52,838
>> "The Young and the Restless"
>> "The Young and the Restless"
360
00:23:11,490 --> 00:23:14,593
>> Audra: Wild Beauty does
wonderful work -- donating to
361
00:23:14,659 --> 00:23:16,928
artist, encouraging their
creativity.
362
00:23:16,995 --> 00:23:20,999
I had a job there for some time
in London, but I mean, obviously
363
00:23:21,066 --> 00:23:23,769
I don't work there anymore.
>> Nikki: Hmm.
364
00:23:23,835 --> 00:23:28,607
It sounds like a noble endeavor.
Who funds it?
365
00:23:28,673 --> 00:23:31,777
>> Audra: I was never really
part of the financial side of
366
00:23:31,843 --> 00:23:35,046
things.
I mainly helped the organization
367
00:23:35,113 --> 00:23:41,653
identify artists to support.
I'd love to continue this, but I
368
00:23:41,720 --> 00:23:45,991
have a meeting to get to.
It was lovely meeting you.
369
00:23:46,057 --> 00:23:49,227
And as I said, I've long admired
your career.
370
00:23:49,294 --> 00:23:52,998
>> Nikki: Well, thank you.
I'm sure you will be crossing
371
00:23:53,064 --> 00:23:55,700
paths with business leaders
whose names you will
372
00:23:55,767 --> 00:23:59,671
recognize -- the Newmans, the
Abbotts.
373
00:23:59,738 --> 00:24:02,374
You already know the team at
Chancellor-Winters.
374
00:24:02,440 --> 00:24:05,377
Even Tucker McCall has returned.
Do you know him?
375
00:24:05,443 --> 00:24:08,880
>> Abby: Mom!
376
00:24:08,947 --> 00:24:10,448
>> Ashley: Honey!
>> Abby: Hi!
377
00:24:10,515 --> 00:24:11,850
>> Ashley: Hi!
>> Abby: Mwah!
378
00:24:11,917 --> 00:24:13,852
Welcome back. I missed you.
>> Ashley: I missed you.
379
00:24:13,919 --> 00:24:16,087
>> Abby: How was Paris?
>> Ashley: Oh, same as usual.
380
00:24:16,154 --> 00:24:17,956
Perfect.
Although I was too busy to
381
00:24:18,023 --> 00:24:20,091
really enjoy it this time.
>> Abby: Oh, that's too bad.
382
00:24:20,158 --> 00:24:22,394
>> Ashley: And I'm so sorry I
had those flight issues so I
383
00:24:22,460 --> 00:24:25,197
couldn't come to Kyle and
Summer's vow renewal ceremony.
384
00:24:25,263 --> 00:24:27,632
>> Abby: Well, I'm sure you
heard that there was an
385
00:24:27,699 --> 00:24:29,835
unexpected guest.
>> Ashley: Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm.
386
00:24:29,901 --> 00:24:31,703
Mm-hmm.
In fact, I met with Tucker
387
00:24:31,770 --> 00:24:34,306
earlier.
>> Abby: Why would you bother?
388
00:24:34,372 --> 00:24:37,709
I hate the idea of the two of
you face-to-face.
389
00:24:37,776 --> 00:24:40,745
I saw him here having dinner
with Devon, and I made it very
390
00:24:40,812 --> 00:24:42,447
clear that he is not welcome
here.
391
00:24:42,514 --> 00:24:44,783
But of course, that didn't
matter because Tucker is a
392
00:24:44,850 --> 00:24:48,153
disgusting human being who
thrives off greed and
393
00:24:48,220 --> 00:24:49,955
exploitation.
>> Ashley: Okay, well, that does
394
00:24:50,021 --> 00:24:52,090
sound a little like Tucker.
>> Abby: I can't believe that he
395
00:24:52,157 --> 00:24:55,594
has some fantasy of making
amends with you or that you gave
396
00:24:55,660 --> 00:24:57,429
him the time of day.
>> Ashley: Just relax, okay?
397
00:24:57,495 --> 00:24:59,631
There's nothing to worry about.
I was over him when he left
398
00:24:59,698 --> 00:25:00,866
town.
>> Abby: Good.
399
00:25:00,932 --> 00:25:02,934
>> Ashley: And I think even less
of him now than I ever did,
400
00:25:03,001 --> 00:25:05,036
okay?
>> Abby: That's good to hear.
401
00:25:05,103 --> 00:25:07,906
>> Ashley: And I also don't
believe for a second that he's
402
00:25:07,973 --> 00:25:10,408
back here because of some deep,
abiding love that he has for me.
403
00:25:10,475 --> 00:25:13,745
>> Abby: [ Sighs ] Neither do I.
Tucker has an agenda, and
404
00:25:13,812 --> 00:25:17,649
whatever it is, I want him as
far away from my mother and my
405
00:25:17,716 --> 00:25:22,087
family as possible.
406
00:25:22,153 --> 00:25:25,023
>> Diane: Thanks again, Kyle.
It's one of the favorite parts
407
00:25:25,090 --> 00:25:28,493
about my job -- getting to have
quick, impromptu lunches with my
408
00:25:28,560 --> 00:25:30,829
son, and just seeing you around
the office brightens my day.
409
00:25:30,896 --> 00:25:33,131
>> Kyle: Well, mine, too.
>> Diane: You know, I-I-I hope
410
00:25:33,198 --> 00:25:36,935
you, um, understand why I got a
bit defensive when you
411
00:25:37,002 --> 00:25:39,704
questioned me about Tucker.
It's just a reflex when his name
412
00:25:39,771 --> 00:25:42,340
comes up at this point.
>> Kyle: I get it.
413
00:25:42,407 --> 00:25:43,942
Now, I've got to track down
Summer.
414
00:25:44,009 --> 00:25:45,911
We've got some important
business to discuss.
415
00:25:45,977 --> 00:25:47,445
>> Diane: Oh.
Well, do you need me?
416
00:25:47,512 --> 00:25:49,047
Is it about the upcoming press
conference?
417
00:25:49,114 --> 00:25:52,150
>> Kyle: No, thanks.
This is "CEO to creative
418
00:25:52,217 --> 00:25:54,586
director" stuff.
I'll see you later.
419
00:25:54,653 --> 00:26:01,593
>> Nikki: Hello, ladies.
420
00:26:01,660 --> 00:26:03,128
>> Abby: Hi.
>> Phyllis: We received your
421
00:26:03,194 --> 00:26:06,531
texts to meet here.
>> Abby: The three of you
422
00:26:06,598 --> 00:26:09,935
meeting voluntarily?
I don't even want to know what
423
00:26:10,001 --> 00:26:11,603
you're sharing if it's not
insults.
424
00:26:11,670 --> 00:26:13,872
>> Phyllis: Good.
Nothing to see here.
425
00:26:13,939 --> 00:26:17,175
>> Abby: Great.
Then I will leave you to
426
00:26:17,242 --> 00:26:18,977
whatever this is.
>> Ashley: Bye, honey. Love you.
427
00:26:19,044 --> 00:26:23,081
>> Abby: I love you.
>> Nikki: Bye.
428
00:26:23,148 --> 00:26:26,818
>> Ashley: So, here we are
again, ladies, the magnificent
429
00:26:26,885 --> 00:26:30,622
triumvirate dedicated to getting
Diane out of this town.
430
00:26:30,689 --> 00:26:33,091
How's that going?
Because I have somebody else I
431
00:26:33,158 --> 00:26:35,894
want to add to that list --
Tucker McCall.
432
00:26:35,961 --> 00:26:38,330
Another undesirable that needs
to leave Genoa City.
433
00:26:38,396 --> 00:26:40,298
>> Phyllis: Funny you should
mention that.
434
00:26:40,365 --> 00:26:42,867
>> Nikki: Because we're
convinced that Diane and Tucker
435
00:26:42,934 --> 00:26:44,936
are a package deal.
436
00:26:54,079 --> 00:26:56,381
>> Summer: So, why did you bring
me here?
437
00:26:56,448 --> 00:26:59,150
It seems like kind of an odd
place to have a work meeting.
438
00:26:59,217 --> 00:27:01,619
>> Kyle: Well, I wanted to get
you out of the office to avoid
439
00:27:01,686 --> 00:27:05,323
running into any of our parents
or any other work interruptions.
440
00:27:05,390 --> 00:27:07,425
>> Summer: Huh.
My calendar says "breakout
441
00:27:07,492 --> 00:27:09,894
summit."
Is this one of those corporate
442
00:27:09,961 --> 00:27:12,764
leadership strategy exercises
that you've been wanting to try?
443
00:27:12,831 --> 00:27:15,967
>> Kyle: In a way.
I've finalized our plans for our
444
00:27:16,034 --> 00:27:18,837
breakout escape.
>> Summer: Oh, so, that's what
445
00:27:18,903 --> 00:27:20,805
this is about.
>> Kyle: I've been working on
446
00:27:20,872 --> 00:27:23,808
the perfect honeymoon to
celebrate my marriage to the
447
00:27:23,875 --> 00:27:29,347
most beautiful woman on earth.
Picture a secluded Costa Rican
448
00:27:29,414 --> 00:27:35,854
beach, a private chef who makes
herself scarce after every meal,
449
00:27:35,920 --> 00:27:39,424
piña coladas and oceanside spa
treatments.
450
00:27:39,491 --> 00:27:42,160
>> Summer: Ooh.
I can't believe that you planned
451
00:27:42,227 --> 00:27:44,329
this all on your own.
And you even found a time that
452
00:27:44,396 --> 00:27:45,697
we could both get away from
work?
453
00:27:45,764 --> 00:27:47,699
You really are the perfect
husband.
454
00:27:47,766 --> 00:27:49,567
>> Kyle: Mm.
I guess I'm inspired by my
455
00:27:49,634 --> 00:27:56,307
perfect wife.
>> Summer: We can't get on that
456
00:27:56,374 --> 00:27:58,977
plane soon enough.
>> Kyle: Ahh.
457
00:27:59,044 --> 00:28:04,416
I -- I do have one request.
It's just an idea.
458
00:28:04,482 --> 00:28:11,089
You can say no if you disagree.
But I was wondering if maybe for
459
00:28:11,156 --> 00:28:14,125
the last few days we had --
>> Summer: The nanny bring
460
00:28:14,192 --> 00:28:18,096
Harrison down for a couple of
days of fun-filled family beach
461
00:28:18,163 --> 00:28:22,600
vacation?
Oh, God.
462
00:28:22,667 --> 00:28:24,369
That wasn't what you were going
to say?
463
00:28:24,436 --> 00:28:30,842
>> Victor: I don't think you
464
00:28:30,909 --> 00:28:35,914
have anything to worry about.
Have a seat.
465
00:28:35,980 --> 00:28:40,452
Victoria's going to play this
very discreetly.
466
00:28:40,518 --> 00:28:42,420
But there's something else that
worries me.
467
00:28:42,487 --> 00:28:47,025
>> Michael: What could that
possibly be?
468
00:28:47,092 --> 00:28:51,062
>> Victor: Tucker McCall, I have
a feeling, is here because he
469
00:28:51,129 --> 00:28:57,368
wants to play a hand in the
Chancellor-Winters deal.
470
00:28:57,435 --> 00:29:00,238
>> Michael: That seems unlikely.
From what I hear, he's divested
471
00:29:00,305 --> 00:29:05,276
himself of all of his holdings
except McCall Unlimited.
472
00:29:05,343 --> 00:29:08,279
You know, he's switched gears
from world domination to
473
00:29:08,346 --> 00:29:10,148
downsizing his companies.
>> Victor: That doesn't mean a
474
00:29:10,215 --> 00:29:12,951
damn thing.
Think about it for a moment.
475
00:29:13,017 --> 00:29:19,657
He's Katherine Chancellor's son.
He's Devon's father, Dominic's
476
00:29:19,724 --> 00:29:22,627
grandfather.
I think his motives are more
477
00:29:22,694 --> 00:29:26,631
personal.
And the man is not known to play
478
00:29:26,698 --> 00:29:29,300
by the rules.
>> Michael: Careful.
479
00:29:29,367 --> 00:29:30,735
Many people would say that about
you.
480
00:29:30,802 --> 00:29:33,138
>> Victor: I don't give a damn
what they say about me.
481
00:29:33,204 --> 00:29:37,475
But I will not let anyone,
certainly not Tucker McCall,
482
00:29:37,542 --> 00:29:42,480
to interfere with plans that
Victoria has for our business.
483
00:29:42,547 --> 00:29:45,884
>> Ashley: So, it's no
coincidence that Diane was seen
484
00:29:45,950 --> 00:29:48,653
riding around in a Bentley
that's the same make and model
485
00:29:48,720 --> 00:29:50,221
as the one owned by
Private Image.
486
00:29:50,288 --> 00:29:52,724
>> Nikki: Absolutely not, and we
have Victor's team to thank for
487
00:29:52,790 --> 00:29:54,459
finding out the ownership of
that car.
488
00:29:54,526 --> 00:29:57,862
>> Ashley: Right.
Private Image owns a nonprofit
489
00:29:57,929 --> 00:29:59,898
arm called Wild Beauty that's
based in London.
490
00:29:59,964 --> 00:30:01,199
>> Phyllis: Yes.
>> Ashley: Okay.
491
00:30:01,266 --> 00:30:03,535
>> Phyllis: And your father
called you "my beauty."
492
00:30:03,601 --> 00:30:06,271
>> Ashley: Mm-hmm.
>> Phyllis: And Tucker called
493
00:30:06,337 --> 00:30:09,340
you "Beauty," right?
>> Ashley: Yeah.
494
00:30:09,407 --> 00:30:12,177
>> Phyllis: There. There.
That connects Tucker to
495
00:30:12,243 --> 00:30:15,780
Wild Beauty, thereby connecting
him to Diane.
496
00:30:15,847 --> 00:30:19,083
>> Ashley: Right.
It's kind of a reach, though,
497
00:30:19,150 --> 00:30:21,386
don't you think?
I mean, the only proof you have
498
00:30:21,452 --> 00:30:24,689
is that the name of the
organization somewhat resonates?
499
00:30:24,756 --> 00:30:26,624
I don't know.
>> Phyllis: Excuse me, Ashley,
500
00:30:26,691 --> 00:30:28,293
but my instincts have never
ceased to point me in the right
501
00:30:28,359 --> 00:30:29,394
direction.
>> Ashley: Okay, I'm just
502
00:30:29,460 --> 00:30:30,628
trying to get to the bottom of
this.
503
00:30:30,695 --> 00:30:34,232
>> Nikki: Alright, anyway --
anyway, Victor's team is trying
504
00:30:34,299 --> 00:30:37,468
to find more proof.
In the meantime, I just had a
505
00:30:37,535 --> 00:30:40,738
very interesting conversation
with Audra Charles.
506
00:30:40,805 --> 00:30:44,008
>> Ashley: Who's that?
>> Nikki: Audra is my grandson
507
00:30:44,075 --> 00:30:47,612
Noah's ex who used to work for
Wild Beauty.
508
00:30:47,679 --> 00:30:52,650
And I asked her if she ever came
across a Tucker McCall.
509
00:30:52,717 --> 00:30:56,087
>> Phyllis: And?
>> Nikki: Well, she admitted
510
00:30:56,154 --> 00:30:59,891
that she knew of him but didn't
know him.
511
00:30:59,958 --> 00:31:03,094
>> Phyllis: I mean, I don't
believe that.
512
00:31:03,161 --> 00:31:07,031
I don't believe that she worked
for a company that we believe
513
00:31:07,098 --> 00:31:10,001
Tucker had a financial stake in
and she never met him.
514
00:31:10,068 --> 00:31:12,470
>> Ashley: What if -- I mean,
there's a possibility, right,
515
00:31:12,537 --> 00:31:16,174
that Tucker has no connection to
Wild Beauty or Private Image.
516
00:31:16,241 --> 00:31:20,845
>> Nikki: Well, Ashley, I know I
just told you about this Audra
517
00:31:20,912 --> 00:31:25,216
person, but Tucker came to town
practically on her heels.
518
00:31:25,283 --> 00:31:28,753
We are so close to tying this
thing together.
519
00:31:28,820 --> 00:31:31,823
We just have to find that
missing piece of the puzzle.
520
00:31:38,963 --> 00:31:40,164
>> Summer: Oh, my God, I am so
521
00:31:40,231 --> 00:31:41,799
sorry.
I didn't mean to step on your
522
00:31:41,866 --> 00:31:44,302
wonderful honeymoon plans.
It's just that I've been looking
523
00:31:44,369 --> 00:31:46,304
at the pictures from the vow
renewal ceremony.
524
00:31:46,371 --> 00:31:49,574
And then I was talking to Jack,
and I was thinking how much love
525
00:31:49,641 --> 00:31:52,343
we have in our little family.
And -- I don't know -- for some
526
00:31:52,410 --> 00:31:54,846
reason, I was thinking that you
were having the same idea, but
527
00:31:54,912 --> 00:31:56,714
I --
>> Kyle: [ Laughing ] I was.
528
00:31:56,781 --> 00:32:00,451
I had the exact same idea.
I just can't believe you came up
529
00:32:00,518 --> 00:32:04,088
with the same one, too.
>> Summer: That is a huge
530
00:32:04,155 --> 00:32:07,425
relief, and I'm thrilled.
But, baby, you shouldn't be
531
00:32:07,492 --> 00:32:09,894
shocked.
We love each other, and we love
532
00:32:09,961 --> 00:32:12,030
our son.
And who doesn't love a family
533
00:32:12,096 --> 00:32:13,665
beach vacation?
>> Kyle: You're right.
534
00:32:13,731 --> 00:32:16,768
We're completely in sync.
Just proof we were meant to be.
535
00:32:16,834 --> 00:32:18,970
And everything we went through
in the past, the breaking up,
536
00:32:19,037 --> 00:32:21,272
getting back together again,
breaking up again --
537
00:32:21,339 --> 00:32:23,141
>> Summer: Getting back together
again.
538
00:32:23,207 --> 00:32:25,510
>> Kyle: It's just proof that
once we finally made it
539
00:32:25,576 --> 00:32:28,446
permanent, we were destined to
last forever.
540
00:32:28,513 --> 00:32:32,450
>> Summer: Mm.
>> Ashley: So, whatever happened
541
00:32:32,517 --> 00:32:34,919
with Talia Morgan's articles?
I thought it was supposed to be
542
00:32:34,986 --> 00:32:37,422
some big exposé that shed light
on what Diane was up to in
543
00:32:37,488 --> 00:32:39,424
Los Angeles.
Instead, only one was published.
544
00:32:39,490 --> 00:32:40,658
That was it.
>> Phyllis: Ah.
545
00:32:40,725 --> 00:32:42,694
>> Nikki: Yeah.
Her editor suddenly shut it
546
00:32:42,760 --> 00:32:44,128
down.
>> Phyllis: Yeah.
547
00:32:44,195 --> 00:32:46,764
We believe that someone applied
pressure.
548
00:32:46,831 --> 00:32:50,535
Somebody out there doesn't want
any more stories about Diane.
549
00:32:50,601 --> 00:32:54,172
>> Ashley: So, if it's true that
Diane was seen riding around in
550
00:32:54,238 --> 00:32:57,575
Tucker's Bentley, then that
means they were in contact after
551
00:32:57,642 --> 00:32:59,477
she "died."
What happened?
552
00:32:59,544 --> 00:33:01,579
Did they hook up after he found
out she was alive?
553
00:33:01,646 --> 00:33:04,782
>> Nikki: Or did he know all
along that she had staged her
554
00:33:04,849 --> 00:33:05,983
death?
>> Ashley: Yeah.
555
00:33:06,050 --> 00:33:07,985
How far does this go back?
>> Phyllis: Yeah, these are all
556
00:33:08,052 --> 00:33:09,587
the questions that we should be
asking.
557
00:33:09,654 --> 00:33:13,524
These are pieces of the puzzle.
I mean, they really are.
558
00:33:13,591 --> 00:33:16,060
What is Tucker's connection to
this company that owns the
559
00:33:16,127 --> 00:33:17,795
Bentley?
And, ultimately, what's his
560
00:33:17,862 --> 00:33:19,864
connection to Diane?
>> Ashley: Yeah.
561
00:33:19,931 --> 00:33:22,533
So, the only issue is, if Victor
didn't have any luck with his
562
00:33:22,600 --> 00:33:25,136
professionals making a financial
tie-in here, I mean, are we
563
00:33:25,203 --> 00:33:27,338
gonna have any better luck with
amateur sleuthing?
564
00:33:27,405 --> 00:33:29,374

567
00:33:34,011 --> 00:33:36,414
>> Phyllis: Yeah.
I mean, Nikki and I -- we're
568
00:33:36,481 --> 00:33:38,282
doing the heavy lifting.
Really.
569
00:33:38,349 --> 00:33:41,085
And we're not coming up with any
answers because they've
570
00:33:41,152 --> 00:33:43,554
obviously been scrubbed.
>> Ashley: Just relax, okay?
571
00:33:43,621 --> 00:33:45,990
I mean, I've done a little
reconnaissance of my own,

Phyllis, here, okay?
>> Nikki: Oh. Well, do tell.
573
00:33:48,393 --> 00:33:50,161
>> Ashley: I met with Tucker
earlier.
574
00:33:50,228 --> 00:33:52,997
I told him I was very suspicious
of the timing, him coming back
575

to Genoa City so soon after
Diane did.
576
00:33:54,899 --> 00:33:57,835
Of course, he swears that there
was no connection.
577
00:33:57,902 --> 00:34:00,138
>> Nikki: You believe him?
>> Ashley: No.
578
00:34:00,204 --> 00:34:03,074
I learned a long time ago not to
trust in Tucker's swears.
579
00:34:03,141 --> 00:34:05,676
I also made sure that he
understood there was no hope for

Yep.
