>> Mariah: Excuse me. We are looking for the owner
of the hottest new club in town. Do you know where he might be?
>> Tessa: Yeah, he had this super-swanky opening,
but I heard that there were invited guests that didn't come.
>> Mariah: Yeah, and I'm sure that those two losers
have a very viable reason. >> Noah: Okay, let's hear
the sob story. >> Mariah: We are so, so sorry
we missed the opening night, but we had to get some paperwork
in for the adoption attorney. >> Tessa: We got you a gift.
Will you ever forgive us? >> Noah: Depends on what you
got me. >> Mariah: That is a "reserved"
sign, which I would like you to install on whatever
the best seats are in the house. They're for us, of course.
>> Tessa: Mm-hmm. >> Mariah: We -- we're your
gift. >> Noah: Got it. Thank you.
>> Mariah: No snarky comment, witty retort?
What -- What's wrong? >> Noah: I'm not sure.
>> Mariah: What happened? >> Noah: Just, you know, a
little blast from the past showed up at the grand opening
last night. >> Tessa: Who?
>> Noah: My ex from London. Audra.
>> Audra: Allie, nice to see you again.
>> Allie: Hi. >> Audra: [ Sighs ]
Last night flew right by. Feels like a blur.
I take it from the empty seat, Noah is too busy getting
his club ready for its second evening in business
to spend any time with you. >> Allie: Well, we've both been
hard at work all day, but we managed to squeeze in
a little time during our breaks. We don't like to be apart
for too long. >> Audra: I'm so glad Noah's
found someone to be with. >> Allie: Not as happy as we
are.
>> Chelsea: [ Sighs ]
[ Sighs ] Hey, great minds think alike.
It was such a beautiful day, I had to --
>> Billy: You had to what? Camp out here and wait for
your moment to ambush my son?
♪♪ ♪♪
>> Victoria: Just so you know, Dad has enlisted Michael
to look into Tucker McCall's most recent activity
and to find out if he has an agenda with the
Chancellor-Winters IPO. >> Nick: Guy's got a lot of
strong personal motives to want to get his hands on the company.
>> Victoria: Well, he had a majority stake as Chancellor in
the past. Maybe he's just looking out
for Devon's position there. >> Nick: Or he could go bigger.
>> Victoria: Like he usually does.
>> Nick: Especially since Katherine didn't leave him the
company in her will. >> Victoria: I believe
that his inheritance consisted of her vinyl-record collection.
>> Nick: Which should have some strong sentimental value,
but he probably feels slighted, you know, like she didn't love
or trust him enough to give him the reins,
and now he's just pissed off enough that he wants to get
a part of the family business right now.
>> Victoria: Well, what if Tucker wants more than a large
percentage of Chancellor-Winters?
What if he wants it all? >> Nick: Well, if that's the
case, we need to ask ourselves a very important question, Vick.
Do we really want to get into a fight with McCall over something
that he sees as his birthright?
>> Lily: Did you get the e-mail from Audra?
>> Devon: I did. She moves real fast.
>> Lily: I know, right? As soon as Nate suggested
speeding things up with taking the company public,
she was right on it. >> Devon: Yeah, about that.
>> Lily: [ Sighs ] Devon, I know. I know.
You want to take things slow. >> Devon: No, I'm having
second thoughts altogether 'cause I don't know if rushing
things is the right move. >> Lily: Look, we're all
concerned about Tucker, okay? That's why we're speeding things
up, so that he can't come after us.
>> Devon: I understand why we're doing it.
It's just not a fun thought to have to imagine that my father's
trying to steal our company. >> Lily: I know, I'm sure.
And, you know, I really hope that we're wrong about him.
I do. But if we take these
precautions, then we can protect Chancellor-Winters.
>> Nate: Thank you for coming here with me to talk.
I thought if we had some privacy, it might make
it easier for us to figure out how to make this work again.
As much as you miss this place...
...I miss you even more. >> Elena: Do you?
>> Nate: Of course. We have so many happy memories
here. So even when you're not here,
I see myself making coffee for two.
Us getting cozy on the couch.
And standing right here is where I surprised you with keys.
>> Elena: Yeah. >> Nate: So this is where I will
stand... while I remind you
that this is our home. This is where we started
building our future together, creating memories,
putting down roots, building a solid foundation.
Elena, I want to create more memories with you.
I want to fill this place up with all the chapters
of our story. This is just one obstacle.
We are stronger than this. We have managed
to best every other challenge, and I'm sure we can get past
this, too. But only if we do it together.
Elena, please, come back home.
>> Victoria: We can take
on McCall Unlimited any day. >> Nick: Vick, I would bet on
us, too, of course, but this could turn into a colossal
battle that we just don't need, especially when you consider
the possible legal risks of involving Nate.
>> Victoria: We're walking a fine line, but we haven't broken
any laws. >> Nick: Well, not yet we
haven't. Look, we just acquired a bunch
of new companies. Let's focus on them right now
and try and maximize their value to Newman.
Can we just agree to step back and really think about
what is the right play here? >> Victoria: There's no time.
We have to move now. >> Nick: What is the rush?
>> Victoria: Nate has persuaded Lilly and Devon to speed up the
timeline for taking Chancellor-Winters public.
>> Nick: Well, that doesn't seem like a very good sign to me.
[ Sighs ] Look, I really believe you need
to question what your actual motives are here.
Don't just think about what we can gain,
but also what we can lose.
>> Chelsea: Whoa, whoa, whoa. Wait a second.
Since when is sitting on a bench and enjoying some sunshine
an ambush? >> Billy: Well, what would you
call it? >> Chelsea: A lovely afternoon
till you showed up. >> Billy: Right, so you weren't
sitting here, waiting for my son to show up so you could talk
to him about being his mother? Because that's what he said
happened. >> Chelsea: I bumped into him
by chance. I did not accost him.
>> Billy: That's not how he took it.
>> Chelsea: I just wanted to make sure he was alright.
>> Billy: By pushing him to bond with Connor as his brother,
Chelsea? >> Chelsea: No, no, that was not
the reason. >> Billy: Look, Victoria and I
have warned you -- do not push this.
We are his parents. If you do not respect that,
we're going to have some problems.
>> Chelsea: Johnny and I have a biological connection.
That deserves some respect, too.
>> Elena: I hate this, Nate. I hate being away from you.
But it's killing me to see what's happening to you.
>> Nate: Elena, I am still the same man you fell in love
with, and what I'm doing for Chancellor-Winters,
it's no different than being in an operating room with
a patient's life on the line. I take the initiative,
override the bad advice, and trust my gut to do
what had to be done. I'm sure you would do the same.
>> Elena: Yes, in this hypothetical situation, but --
>> Nate: Yes, I heard your concerns, and I have taken them
to heart. Yes, we used to work together
and make decisions about our jobs together.
But now that our career paths have diverged,
we should trust each other to make the right decisions
in our respective professions. So from now on,
why don't we leave our careers outside that door?
Outside our relationship? Can we do that?
>> Elena: I don't know, Nate. >> Nate: Can we at least try?
Elena, what we have is so good, it's so much bigger than a job.
You still love me, right? >> Elena: Of course I do.
>> Nate: Then put faith in our love.
[ Knock on door ] >> Elena: Are you expecting
someone? >> Nate: No.
[ Sighs ]
>> Victoria: Nate, I'm sorry to pop in like this, but I, uh...
Hello, Elena. I tried calling.
>> Nate: I'm sorry. I haven't been checking my
phone. >> Victoria: If you're in the
middle of something, we can talk later.
>> Nate: Yeah, that might be best.
>> Elena: Actually, it's fine. I need to get going.
You can finish your conversation.
>> Nate: Okay. And we'll finish this later?
>> Elena: I'll call you.
>> Nate: [ Clears throat ]
>> Victoria: If you need to back out, now would be the time
because that window is about to close.
>> Billy: You know, I thought we were all on the same page,
to make sure that we put Johnny first,
to give him the time and the space to handle this
in the way that he sees fit, but you keep pushing for more
than you originally asked, going against our wishes.
>> Chelsea: It was just an honest conversation.
>> Billy: A conversation that my son is not ready to have,
Chelsea. I mean, you freaked him out.
>> Chelsea: I feel terrible about that.
I just wanted to listen to what he had to say.
Honestly, I am proud of him for sticking up for himself.
I didn't fight him on anything. I didn't chase him
when he walked away. I would never put him in that
position. >> Billy: Well, your very
presence puts him in that position.
>> Chelsea: What did you want me to do when I saw him, Billy,
huh? Turn around and walk away?
That would have hurt him even more.
I thought I was putting him first by showing him kindness
and compassion. You know, frankly, you don't
understand what it feels like knowing that a child
that you wanted to protect and that you nurtured for all
those months who grew inside you wants nothing to do with you.
It's extremely painful, and I don't think you understand that.
When I look into Johnny's eyes, I feel a connection.
Does he really feel nothing in return?
This whole thing is ripping me up inside, so if you could just
stop chastising me and try to understand where I'm coming
from. >> Billy: Chelsea, you got
to give my son some space. I mean, you have gone years
without this need for connection.
>> Chelsea: He has always been in my heart.
Always. >> Billy: Okay, well, do you
know what I think is going on? And I may be wrong, but...
maybe you're feeling a little bit lost in your world right
now, and you see Johnny as an opportunity to try
and balance things out. >> Chelsea: How dare you accuse
me of trying to use that little boy.
>> Billy: That's not what I meant.
>> Chelsea: I love him. I've always loved him.
And I thought you understood that.
But you're just like Adam. You know, he accused me
of trying to use Connor to fix my broken parts.
Is that what you think I'm doing with Johnny?
Is that how you see me? I'm not a bad person.
>> Billy: I don't think you are. But we have to get over
this hump. And I've tried to be respectful,
and I want nothing but the best for you.
But at the end of the day, and above all else,
I will protect my children.
>> Nate: I didn't say anything about backing out of this.
>> Victoria: Not explicitly, no. But you did mention that our
arrangement has already been causing conflict in
your relationship with Elena. And if that's true,
maybe you should ask yourself if it's worth it.
>> Nate: There's no need to change anything.
I have everything under control. >> Victoria: Do you?
>> Nate: Yes. Elena and I were just in the
process of straighten things out right when you arrived.
>> Victoria: Well, good. That's encouraging.
I'm happy to hear that. And I'm sorry for my bad timing.
>> Nate: No problem. My professional and personal
lives are still on track. >> Victoria: Good.
Because this job, what we're about to do is going
to require your full focus. >> Nate: Top priority.
But now I'm wondering why you would suggest that I back out.
Are you the one having second thoughts?
>> Mariah: Your ex came all the way here from London?
>> Noah: Mm-hmm. >> Tessa: Why is she even in
town? >> Mariah: I thought she was
some sort of rising star in the art world.
>> Noah: Audra dabbled in some amateur art, but she always had
a business degree. I guess after I left town,
she dove all the way into finance and didn't look back.
>> Mariah: Is that a reason why she's here?
>> Noah: Yeah, she said her company sent her here
to work with Chancellor-Winters on some big deal.
>> Mariah: And you believe her? >> Noah: I mean, she seemed cool
enough. There was no hard feelings.
But I don't know. I got a bad vibe.
Maybe it's our history. >> Mariah: I don't like her.
>> Tessa: You don't know her. >> Mariah: I don't have to.
She broke my brother's heart. That's all I need to know.
You know, this Audra person, she should probably just finish
up whatever business she has with the Lily and Devon and go
back to where she's wanted. >> Tessa: Yeah, she means that.
>> Noah: Oh, trust me, I know. >> Tessa: Look, as your wife,
I am contractually obligated to have your back...
>> Mariah: Thank you. >> Tessa: ...but I don't think
Audra's a threat. >> Mariah: She isn't?
>> Tessa: Maybe if Noah was the same brokenhearted person he was
when he came back into town, but look at him now.
His life is on track. He's got the hottest club
in town, and he's head over heels for Allie.
This Audra person? Powerless.
>> Billy: Vick, it's me. Listen, give me a call when you
get a second. It's not an emergency,
but give me a call when you can.
>> Esther: Good morning, Mr. Abbott.
>> Billy: Esther, what are you doing here?
>> Esther: Same thing you are. >> Billy: Well, yeah,
some people question it, but I actually work here.
>> Esther: So do I. >> Billy: Really? This is you?
You're working here in this situation?
>> Esther: Yeah, I am the new receptionist.
>> Billy: Well, hell, yeah. That's the best news
I've heard in a very long time. Welcome to the cool-kid club.
>> Esther: Oh, I am so excited about my new job.
You here to see the boss? >> Billy: I am, yes. After you.
[ Knock on door ] >> Lily: Come in.
>> Esther: The files you requested.
>> Lily: Oh, thank you, Esther. >> Esther: I hope you don't
mind. I got in a little early,
and there wasn't much to do, so I decided to do a little
light dusting. [ Both chuckle ]
>> Lily: You didn't have to do that.
>> Esther: Eh, force of habit. >> Lily: Okay.
[ Both chuckle ] Well, thank you.
>> Esther: Welcome. >> Billy: [ Sighs ]
Why didn't you tell me about the new hire?
>> Lily: It was Devon's doing. And given your recent
proclamation that you don't really know
what you're doing here, I'm surprised you even care.
>> Mariah: Look at him. Noah, come on, you're blushing.
>> Noah: No, I'm not. >> Tessa: Aww, that is so
adorable. You are crazy about her.
>> Noah: I mean, who wouldn't be crazy about her?
Come on, she's beautiful, smart, funny, easy to talk to.
I think Allie might be my game changer.
She has this positivity that's just infectious.
I love it. >> Mariah: Well, we think that
she is borderline amazing. >> Tessa: And that's just for
laughing at your jokes. >> Mariah: [ Chuckles ]
Ah, I'm so relieved to think that this Audra person
is not going to be any trouble. >> Noah: I didn't say Audra
wouldn't be trouble.
>> Audra: Thank you.
Hey, you don't have to rush off just yet, do you?
I hate drinking alone. Let me join you. I insist.
>> Allie: Well, if you insist. How can I refuse?
>> Audra: So tell me everything. How did you and Noah meet?
>> Allie: Well, we -- we met through mutual acquaintances,
and then we hit it off. And we've been together
ever since. >> Audra: Cute.
I'm really glad for you, but I should warn you.
He goes through these moody-artist phases.
>> Allie: Well, every artist has his blue period.
I mean, look at Picasso, right? >> Audra: I used to call Noah's
his purple funks. Just thought I'd give you some
warning. >> Allie: Okay, well, the fact
is, you know that person that you're referring to?
I actually don't recognize, because the Noah that I know,
he's upbeat and hilarious, grounded
and, oh, so productive. He's an amazing son and brother
and boyfriend. Noah's phenomenal.
>> Audra: Incredible. >> Allie: Yeah, and he's -- he's
thriving here, you know, and I think that's really
because of the environment. He's surrounded by
so much wealth and authenticity. >> Audra: Oh, I get it.
He's not doing the art thing anymore.
>> Allie: Oh, no, he is. The club itself is a work of
art. And, Audra, if you can't see
that, then, well, you never really appreciated him.
But I should thank you, you know, for whatever you did
to make him leave London. No, no, hear me out,
because now he is back where he belongs.
>> Audra: I think you're getting the wrong idea.
>> Allie: [ Chuckles ] No, I am not.
Okay? I see right through you,
and I will only say this once. Nothing you say or imply
will ever make me question Noah's affections for me.
>> Audra: That was never my intention.
Look, I am thrilled Noah's found the right partner.
I mean, we were just too volatile and unpredictable and,
mm, God, the electricity... Too dynamic to last.
I mean, I suppose it was inevitable the fire
would burn us both out. But that doesn't sound like it's
a problem for the two of you. Hm. You're so lucky.
>> Billy: You know that I shared my low level of job
satisfaction with you because I don't want to lie to you.
I tried very hard to make this fit.
>> Lily: Well, have you figured out what you want to do yet?
>> Billy: No, not exactly.
>> Lily: I just really miss our old, solid working dynamic.
I wish we could go back to that. >> Billy: Look, I am not going
to leave you high and dry, okay? I will wait till the dust
settles after the IPO, and then I will slowly walk away
so there is no appearance of instability.
>> Lily: Okay. Thank you. I appreciate that.
>> Billy: I would try and find my replacement, but I know
you're going to want to do that. >> Lily: I do want to do that.
[ Chuckles ] >> Billy: I hope this isn't
too infuriating for you because I don't want to damage
what we have. You are the most important part
of all of this.
>> Victoria: Earlier today, Nicholas asked me to consider my
motives for pursuing Chancellor-Winters.
>> Nate: What did you say? >> Victoria: I told him that
I -- I didn't know. I had to ponder it.
But then it became abundantly clear.
Katherine never left her company to her son Tucker.
She never bequeathed it to Jill or Devon.
She left it to my father. And even though Jill
convinced him to sell it to her, Katherine made her true
intentions clear. She wanted Victor Newman
to be her successor. So I feel justified
in my motives, and my moves
are going to set things right. They're going to bring that
company back into the Newman fold the way that my godmother,
my mother's best friend intended.
>> "The Young and the Restless" >> "Will Continue."
>> Victoria: Elena. >> Elena: You and Nate are
finished already? >> Victoria: Yes, we had
a very productive conversation. And you and I can be honest
with each other, can't we? >> Elena: I hope so.
>> Victoria: May I? >> Elena: Of course.
>> Victoria: I, um... I know that Nate
filled you in on our plan about Chancellor-Winters,
and I understand that you have some concerns,
but Nate is a smart, good man, and I'm genuinely sorry
if this has caused any problems in your relationship.
>> Elena: Victoria, since we're being honest,
are you really sorry?
>> Victoria: Of course I am. >> Elena: From where I'm
sitting, it seems like you stand to gain the most from this plan.
>> Victoria: Well, it might seem like that from an outside
perspective, but that's hardly the case.
>> Elena: Then why don't you care about what's going to
happen to Nate? And why are you ignoring this
collision course he's set himself on with his family?
>> Victoria: Nate knows exactly what he's doing.
Don't fault him for learning how to play the game.
>> Elena: You calling this a game is all I needed to hear.
>> Lily: I'm really going to miss working with you, you know,
knowing that I can just turn around whenever I want and get
your advice and perspective on things.
But I really do hope that you find peace, whatever that may
be. And, no, this is not going to
damage us because I love you so much, even all the infuriating
parts of you. >> Billy: Well, I'll still be
at your beck and call at home. You'll be able to ask me to do
anything. >> Lily: Okay, I'm going to
take you up on that. >> Billy: You know, this could
actually be exciting for us. Won't be so joined at the hip.
Although, you have fine hips. >> Lily: [ Chuckles ]
Okay, butter me up. >> Billy: Oh, I'm not joking.
You better watch yourself. You're going to walk
through that front door after a long day,
and I'm going to be missing you. >> Lily: Oh.
Promises, promises. >> Billy: Well, this is one I
intend to keep. >> Lily: [ Chuckles ]
Well, listen, just keep things quiet about leaving.
Okay? For now. >> Billy: You have my word.
>> Lily: Okay. [ Knock on door ]
Hi. >> Esther: Audra's here for the
meeting. >> Lily: Oh, great.
Audra, come on in. >> Audra: Hey.
>> Lily: Hi. We're just waiting on Nate.
But, first, I want to thank you for all the hard work
on fast-tracking the IPO. >> Audra: Oh, I'm just doing my
job, but happy I could help. >> Nate: Sorry I'm late.
>> Devon: Is everything okay? >> Nate: Of course.
Why wouldn't it be? >> Lily: Did you read Audra's
e-mail? >> Nate: Yes, I did.
>> Audra: Wonderful. So if no one has any issues or
concerns, we can go forward with filing the paperwork.
If everything goes well, we should be ready to launch
ahead of schedule. >> Lily: Amazing. Great work.
And, Nate, really good idea and speeding things up.
>> Billy: Devon, you're doing a great job of hiding your
excitement. >> Lily: [ Chuckles ]
Well, Devon's the resident voice of reason, right?
He doesn't get excited until there's absolute proof
that we're on the right track. >> Devon: Well, being cautious
never hurts. >> Lily: Well, I think
that you will realize that this is the best decision.
>> Devon: I just can't help but wonder what Katherine and Neil
would think about doing this. >> Billy: I agree.
I've been thinking a lot about them this week,
and, I don't know, I think they would both say, "Go big."
>> Devon: Yeah, as long as we take all the precautions
necessary to make sure that neither Tucker or anyone else
can make a move on the company. >> Nate: I think we neutralized
that threat with the newly accelerated timeline.
>> Lily: Nate's right. And I think that we've also
structured it in a way where we maintain control
of the shares, so nothing for you to worry about.
>> Audra: So are we ready?
>> Devon: Yeah. >> Nate: Hey.
>> Devon: Hey. >> Nate: Elena,
it's good to see you, but, um, we're in the middle
of a meeting right now. >> Lily: Elena, you're just in
time. You're going to be the first
person to know that we are seconds away from finalizing
our IPO paperwork. >> Devon: Elena, is everything
alright? >> Billy: You can go ahead
if you got something to say. >> Nate: Why don't you go wait
in my office, and we can talk about whatever it is later?
>> Elena: This can't wait.
>> Mariah: Hey, Mr. Club Owner, you don't just get to
say that your ex-girlfriend is trouble and then walk away.
>> Noah: I am trying to get this place ready for tonight's crowd.
>> Tessa: You can do that after you explain yourself.
>> Mariah: Yeah, we need to know what kind of drama or trouble
we're looking for here. >> Noah: Audra can be very
strong-willed. She does this thing
where she spirals emotionally. >> Mariah: That sounds
unpleasant. >> Noah: Yeah. Yeah, it is.
You never really know what's going to set her off
on one of her moods, and once she gets into it,
kind of turns into a spoiled little kid.
Doesn't really understand the word "no."
She'll do anything to get what she wants.
>> Tessa: Wow. I have a hard time
seeing you in a relationship with someone like that.
>> Noah: It was a dark time. I don't need that kind of drama
in my life anymore. >> Mariah: Then that settles it.
She's got to go. And I don't really care how,
but let's just get her on the next flight back to London.
>> Allie: Let me guess. You guys started talking about a
certain someone. >> Noah: I regret even
bringing her up. I'd be happy never to hear her
name again. >> Allie: Well, then, I guess
I shouldn't tell you that I ran into her earlier.
>> Nate: [ Clears throat ] >> Devon: Hey, Elena, you know
you can speak freely. We're all on the same team here.
So if something's bugging you, it affects all of us.
>> Lily: Yeah, whatever it is, we'll work it out together.
>> Elena: I just need to speak to Nate.
Alone. >> Nate: Um, if you'll excuse me
for a moment. >> Lily: Yeah. Take your time.
>> Nate: We should have some privacy here.
Thank you for this. For a second, I thought
you going to tell everyone what Victoria and I were working on.
>> Elena: I considered it. It would have been very easy
for me to tell everyone in that room
that while you were sitting there smiling in their face,
you were plotting to stab them in the back.
>> Nate: So why didn't you do it?
>> Elena: I just... I just couldn't do that to you.
There's already been so much deception going around.
I didn't want to add to it. >> Nate: Then why did you come
here? >> Elena: I'm leaving
Genoa City. >> Nate: Okay, yeah, maybe a
vacation is exactly what you need, okay?
Get some -- >> Elena: I'm not talking
about a vacation. I mean forever.
>> Nate: I don't -- I don't understand. What?
>> Elena: I spoke to my friend in Baltimore,
the one who wanted me to work at her hospital last year.
Turns out there is a position available, and they're still
interested in me joining their team.
>> Nate: Is this a done deal? >> Elena: No.
But I'm going to interview for it, and chances are I will get
an offer. >> Nate: Wow. Um...
I can't -- I can't b-- Elena, a couple of hours ago,
we were in our home talking about the future
we were going to build together. I meant every word I said to
you. Before Victoria
came in and interrupted us, I truly believed
we were making progress, finding a way back to each other.
>> Elena: I wish that were true, but what you've proposed
would have never worked, and I think we both know that.
I can't pretend that I don't care about what you're doing
in your career. That's just not the way my head
and my heart work. And I can't ignore what
you're doing to your family. >> Nate: Okay, look, look,
let's -- let's slow down, alright?
Give me one night. Let's sleep on this,
and we can wake up in the morning and talk about this
with a fresh perspective. >> Elena: I'm leaving tonight.
This is me saying goodbye.
>> Allie: So, I ran into Audra at Crimson Lights.
She acted super friendly, but you could definitely tell
there was more going on under the surface.
>> Mariah: Mm-hmm. Yeah, I know the type.
Sickeningly sweet, with a side of passive aggressiveness?
>> Allie: Yep, that's it. She insisted that I join her.
Oh, and she couldn't wait to walk me down memory lane,
regaling me with stories about London.
>> Noah: Allie, I'm sorry. >> Mariah: See?
I knew that I should have sorted her out,
so somebody please just point me in her direction.
>> Allie: Mariah, you are the best, but I've got this.
I know you might think I'm soft-spoken, but the truth is,
people have underestimated me my entire life.
Audra doesn't worry me. >> Noah: Have I ever told you
how badass you are? >> Allie: Not lately.
>> Noah: You're incredible.
>> Victoria: Oh, Nicholas, hey, I know you're busy,
but do you have a minute? >> Nick: Yeah. What's going on?
>> Victoria: I've spent a considerable amount of time
thinking about the concerns that you raised earlier.
>> Nick: About taking a step back and really thinking about
how what you're planning with Nate could affect our families
and businesses? >> Victoria: Yes, and I've made
a decision that is right for us. Newman will be moving

It would be cruel of us to continue to keep trying
to make this work. There's no future for us.
