And then Jeremy would 249 00:14:51,624 --> 00:14:54,326 remove them when we got to the location and deposit them 250 00:14:54,393 --> 00:14:57,596 in a local bank.

And later, when he thought 260 00:15:28,260 --> 00:15:31,930 I was taking a nap, I saw him remove them, and then 261 00:15:31,997 --> 00:15:39,805 I followed him to a bank.

Got it? 363 00:22:42,294 --> 00:22:48,767 I'll do the same for you. >> Diane: But what if -- 364 00:22:48,834 --> 00:22:52,671 [ Sirens approaching ] >> Jeremy: Get out of here. 365 00:22:52,738 --> 00:22:57,509 Now! >> Jack: Wow. 366 00:22:57,576 --> 00:23:01,046 Lucky you. >> Diane: I didn't feel lucky. 367 00:23:01,113 --> 00:23:05,784 I was terrified. His whole operation came 368 00:23:05,851 --> 00:23:09,888 to light in the investigation. The trial and the preparation 369 00:23:09,955 --> 00:23:14,159 took four years, and I was on pins and needles 370 00:23:14,226 --> 00:23:16,194 the whole time. I was -- I was certain there 371 00:23:16,261 --> 00:23:18,530 would be a knock at my door and -- and I would be 372 00:23:18,597 --> 00:23:23,902 implicated. >> Jack: How were you not? 373 00:23:23,969 --> 00:23:26,271 >> Diane: Well, the fact that we never flew together 374 00:23:26,338 --> 00:23:32,611 made it hard to connect us. But it was a huge wake-up call. 375 00:23:32,677 --> 00:23:37,048 I was determined after this experience to get my life 376 00:23:37,115 --> 00:23:41,219 on the right track. Jack... 377 00:23:41,286 --> 00:23:46,992 I need you to believe me. Everything I have told you about 378 00:23:47,058 --> 00:23:51,830 that part of my journey is true. I always... 379 00:23:51,897 --> 00:23:55,767 I always thought that, um... you know, a rich husband 380 00:23:55,834 --> 00:23:58,870 would solve all my problems. But after Jeremy, 381 00:23:58,937 --> 00:24:04,442 I realized that's just wrong, that I needed 382 00:24:04,509 --> 00:24:08,814 to take care of myself. And that's what drove me 383 00:24:08,880 --> 00:24:11,817 to get the help I needed. I mean, I swore that -- 384 00:24:11,883 --> 00:24:15,287 that if I got out of this mess that I would do everything in my 385 00:24:15,353 --> 00:24:21,660 power to reconnect with Kyle, who I had missed every day. 386 00:24:21,726 --> 00:24:27,032 And that's what kept me going for years. 387 00:24:27,098 --> 00:24:29,267 >> Jack: And I guess I could assume by your being here 388 00:24:29,334 --> 00:24:34,039 a free woman that you managed to evade the law. 389 00:24:34,105 --> 00:24:38,476 >> Diane: That's right. Once Jeremy was convicted and in 390 00:24:38,543 --> 00:24:44,482 prison, I was able to relax and focus on getting back to 391 00:24:44,549 --> 00:24:49,955 Genoa City and getting back into Kyle's life. 392 00:24:50,021 --> 00:24:53,058 And that's when Tucker showed up. 393 00:24:54,960 --> 00:24:58,063 >> Tucker: I wouldn't read too much into my latest maneuvers. 394 00:24:58,129 --> 00:25:01,099 I'm buying and selling and investing and divesting all the 395 00:25:01,166 --> 00:25:04,069 time. The business world moves fast, 396 00:25:04,135 --> 00:25:06,137 and so do I. Are you sure I can't get you 397 00:25:06,204 --> 00:25:07,873 something? >> Talia: No, thanks. 398 00:25:07,939 --> 00:25:11,443 That is another non-answer. >> Tucker: Ah. 399 00:25:11,509 --> 00:25:17,582 Okay. Um... Let's say I'm clearing a path. 400 00:25:17,649 --> 00:25:19,985 >> Talia: To what? >> Tucker: Who knows? 401 00:25:20,051 --> 00:25:24,956 Sometimes you just have to, uh...make room for whatever 402 00:25:25,023 --> 00:25:27,826 will be revealed. >> Talia: Did you learn that at 403 00:25:27,893 --> 00:25:29,928 the ashram? >> Tucker: I did. 404 00:25:29,995 --> 00:25:31,930 Very good.

Do you own a home? 409 00:25:42,908 --> 00:25:44,409 What do you enjoy doing when in town? 410 00:25:44,476 --> 00:25:49,247 My readers would love to know. >> Tucker: Well, uh... 411 00:25:49,314 --> 00:25:52,951 I, uh -- I go to the Hollywood Walk of Fame and 412 00:25:53,018 --> 00:25:57,889 Venice Beach and the Capitol Records building 413 00:25:57,956 --> 00:26:00,625 and Brown Derby. All the hotspots, you know? 414 00:26:00,692 --> 00:26:04,562 >> Talia: The Brown Derby has been closed for about 30 years. 415 00:26:04,629 --> 00:26:07,966 >> Tucker: Is that right? Wow. That would explain 416 00:26:08,033 --> 00:26:11,536 the slow service. >> Talia: All right. 417 00:26:11,603 --> 00:26:16,241 I have things to do. If you ever do get serious, 418 00:26:16,308 --> 00:26:21,046 I would love to interview you. >> Tucker: [ Chuckles ] 419 00:26:21,112 --> 00:26:24,883 Wow. How quaint. Well, in this case, I'll 420 00:26:24,950 --> 00:26:33,425 definitely be in touch. Take care. 421 00:26:33,491 --> 00:26:41,199 You can come out now, Nikki. Would you like to explain 422 00:26:41,266 --> 00:26:42,934 what that was all about? 423 00:26:56,548 --> 00:26:59,317 >> Diane: Tucker was the man in the Bentley. 424 00:26:59,384 --> 00:27:01,886 That's the one thing I lied to you about. 425 00:27:01,953 --> 00:27:05,490 We were connected in L.A., but it was just a random run-in. 426 00:27:05,557 --> 00:27:09,060 >> Jack: When was this? >> Diane: About six months 427 00:27:09,127 --> 00:27:11,563 before I started reaching out to you. 428 00:27:11,629 --> 00:27:13,932 Tucker recognized me immediately, and I was hoping he 429 00:27:13,999 --> 00:27:15,667 would drop it, but of course he didn't. 430 00:27:15,734 --> 00:27:17,168 >> Jack: That wouldn't be his style, no. 431 00:27:17,235 --> 00:27:21,573 >> Diane: No, not at all. He, um -- He was able to connect 432 00:27:21,639 --> 00:27:24,175 the dots because he knew people who had done business with 433 00:27:24,242 --> 00:27:27,345 Jeremy. And somehow he uncovered 434 00:27:27,412 --> 00:27:30,815 evidence of my crimes that the feds had overlooked. 435 00:27:30,882 --> 00:27:33,485 But he promised that he would keep quiet 436 00:27:33,551 --> 00:27:35,587 if we helped each other. >> Jack: You were being 437 00:27:35,653 --> 00:27:37,956 blackmailed from two different directions. 438 00:27:38,023 --> 00:27:40,658 >> Diane: Yeah. >> Jack: I'm almost afraid to 439 00:27:40,725 --> 00:27:43,294 ask. What did he want from you 440 00:27:43,361 --> 00:27:47,298 in return? >> Diane: Tucker was considering 441 00:27:47,365 --> 00:27:51,069 a return to Genoa City to rekindle things with Ashley. 442 00:27:51,136 --> 00:27:54,439 >> Jack: He's a fool. >> Diane: Yes, and he wanted a 443 00:27:54,506 --> 00:28:00,311 way in with the Abbotts. And that's when he found Allie. 444 00:28:00,378 --> 00:28:03,615 >> Jack: Wait. Tucker's the one who discovered Keemo and Allie? 445 00:28:03,681 --> 00:28:06,251 >> Diane: That's right. He thought I could be of help to 446 00:28:06,317 --> 00:28:09,220 him here, so he offered me the information about the house as a 447 00:28:09,287 --> 00:28:12,190 way for me to reconnect with you and Kyle. 448 00:28:12,257 --> 00:28:15,660 >> Jack: And what was he expecting from you in return? 449 00:28:15,727 --> 00:28:18,329 >> Diane: [ Sighs ] Well, he -- he wanted me 450 00:28:18,396 --> 00:28:22,901 to keep tabs on Ashley.

You originally 452 00:28:25,537 --> 00:28:27,005 came to town to spy on my sister? 453 00:28:27,072 --> 00:28:30,208 >> Diane: No! No, Jack. Ca-- Can't you see the situation 454 00:28:30,275 --> 00:28:33,711 I was in? I had worked so hard 455 00:28:33,778 --> 00:28:37,215 to turn my life around -- years and years of effort 456 00:28:37,282 --> 00:28:41,419 and -- and therapy so that I could be with my son again. 457 00:28:41,486 --> 00:28:44,722 This was my chance. And -- And I couldn't risk 458 00:28:44,789 --> 00:28:47,092 Tucker revealing that I was a lie before I had a chance 459 00:28:47,158 --> 00:28:50,428 to do it myself. I could've gone to jail. 460 00:28:50,495 --> 00:28:53,064 And then Kyle would have found out that I'd faked my death 461 00:28:53,131 --> 00:28:57,035 without me being able to explain it to him. 462 00:28:57,102 --> 00:29:00,405 So I -- So I agreed to help Tucker. 463 00:29:00,472 --> 00:29:03,274 Okay? I sold all of the expensive 464 00:29:03,341 --> 00:29:06,244 gifts that Jeremy had given me, and I used the money to buy 465 00:29:06,311 --> 00:29:11,749 Keemo's house. You know everything after that. 466 00:29:17,856 --> 00:29:19,724 >> Summer: How good are our lives right now? 467 00:29:19,791 --> 00:29:23,394 >> Kyle: Mm.

And now we have everything 474 00:29:44,349 --> 00:29:48,319 we could ever want. We have each other, 475 00:29:48,386 --> 00:29:55,026 Harrison, family, work. Could it get any better? 476 00:29:55,093 --> 00:29:58,363 >> Summer: I don't know. We both had personal issues 477 00:29:58,429 --> 00:30:01,065 that we had to deal with before we came here. 478 00:30:01,132 --> 00:30:04,802 You with Adam, me with my dad and Sally. 479 00:30:04,869 --> 00:30:07,272 >> Kyle: Yeah, minor bumps in the road. 480 00:30:07,338 --> 00:30:10,675 That stuff barely even bothers me anymore. 481 00:30:10,742 --> 00:30:14,479 It was perfectly fine, and I owe that to you and Harrison. 482 00:30:14,546 --> 00:30:19,050 I know the two of you are in my corner, so nothing else matters. 483 00:30:19,117 --> 00:30:24,622 >> Summer: That's so sweet. But it's not entirely true. 484 00:30:24,689 --> 00:30:28,626 >> Kyle: What? >> Summer: Kind of hurts me to 485 00:30:28,693 --> 00:30:33,398 say this, but... I feel like you never felt 486 00:30:33,464 --> 00:30:37,735 truly whole until Diane came back. 487 00:30:37,802 --> 00:30:43,041 And it makes sense, right? The mother you thought you lost 488 00:30:43,107 --> 00:30:47,011 back in your life? >> Kyle: Guess I hadn't thought 489 00:30:47,078 --> 00:30:50,381 about it like that. But... 490 00:30:50,448 --> 00:30:53,785 having her around does make me feel more at peace. 491 00:30:53,851 --> 00:30:56,354 I think that's because I finally have some answers. 492 00:30:56,421 --> 00:31:01,092 There's not as much uncertainty. No more unfinished business. 493 00:31:01,159 --> 00:31:04,896 >> Summer: Mm. >> Kyle: I think I was always 494 00:31:04,963 --> 00:31:07,465 looking for something that was just out of reach 495 00:31:07,532 --> 00:31:11,336 or lurking in the shadows. >> Summer: And you're not 496 00:31:11,402 --> 00:31:13,805 anymore? >> Kyle: Mnh. 497 00:31:13,871 --> 00:31:17,809 That's why I can focus on all the positive things in my life. 498 00:31:17,875 --> 00:31:19,911 >> Summer: Well, I'm glad it's worked out because, to be 499 00:31:19,978 --> 00:31:22,847 honest, when she first showed up, I was afraid it was gonna be 500 00:31:22,914 --> 00:31:25,283 a real mess.

You were supportive but never 503 00:31:32,924 --> 00:31:35,560 dictated how I was supposed to feel about any of it. 504 00:31:35,627 --> 00:31:38,162 You let me figure it out on my own. 505 00:31:38,229 --> 00:31:41,366 You were awesome. >> Summer: Were awesome? 506 00:31:41,432 --> 00:31:45,937 Did I stop being awesome? >> Kyle: Oh.

But it was -- 515 00:32:19,570 --> 00:32:22,340 it was about survival. And I -- And it was about my 516 00:32:22,407 --> 00:32:25,576 need as a mother to reconnect with my son. 517 00:32:25,643 --> 00:32:29,614 And I was willing to do whatever it took. 518 00:32:29,681 --> 00:32:39,257 Please tell me you understand. I am so sorry. 519 00:32:39,324 --> 00:32:43,394 But Phyllis and Nikki were determined to dig up dirt on me, 520 00:32:43,461 --> 00:32:47,065 and -- and I knew that this would be discovered sooner or 521 00:32:47,131 --> 00:32:49,067 later. I just wanted you 522 00:32:49,133 --> 00:32:54,138 to hear it from me. [ Knock on door, door opens ] 523 00:32:54,205 --> 00:32:59,243 >> Phyllis: Hi.

It's funny -- she was asking 530 00:33:27,505 --> 00:33:31,442 about my business in L.A., and it's pretty common knowledge 531 00:33:31,509 --> 00:33:35,279 that most of my business is done internationally. 532 00:33:35,346 --> 00:33:37,949 But everyone seems very concerned about what 533 00:33:38,015 --> 00:33:41,152 I'm doing in Los Angeles. And by "everyone," I mean you. 534 00:33:41,219 --> 00:33:43,287 >> Nikki: I'm not sure what you're referring to. 535 00:33:43,354 --> 00:33:47,558 >> Tucker: Oh, Nikki... I love a good cat-and-mouse 536 00:33:47,625 --> 00:33:50,995 game, especially with you. But I think it would be best 537 00:33:51,062 --> 00:33:54,332 if we just lay our cards on the table here. 538 00:33:54,399 --> 00:33:56,834 You and your friends have a theory that I'm somehow 539 00:33:56,901 --> 00:33:59,804 connected with Diane Jenkins. Right?
