it probably made it

you a personal question,

or that I might trigger them.

00:10:56,222 --> 00:11:00,393
But I eventually realized
that that was my own wall
163
00:11:00,459 --> 00:11:02,461
that I was putting up,
and my patients
164
00:11:02,528 --> 00:11:07,033
could sense that.
I've since learned that talking
165
00:11:07,099 --> 00:11:12,204
about what happened directly,
while obviously difficult,
166
00:11:12,271 --> 00:11:15,708
can be constructive,
whereas shying away from it
167
00:11:15,775 --> 00:11:17,877
just makes it seem like
something to be hidden,
168
00:11:17,943 --> 00:11:25,184
and that can make things worse.
>> Chelsea: You've talked to a
169
00:11:25,251 --> 00:11:29,522
lot of people in my situation?
>> Dr. Malone: I have.
170
00:11:29,588 --> 00:11:34,293
And I'm always grateful
to be speaking to them.
171
00:11:34,360 --> 00:11:43,836
Because it means they survived.
>> Chelsea: [ Breathes deeply ]
172
00:11:43,903 --> 00:11:45,471
>> Dr. Malone: Do you want to
discuss the thoughts and
173
00:11:45,538 --> 00:11:47,706
feelings that led you to that
rooftop the other night?
174
00:11:47,773 --> 00:11:51,110
>> Chelsea: Mnh-mnh.
I don't think so.
175
00:11:51,177 --> 00:11:55,414
>> Dr. Malone: Okay.
I understand.
176
00:11:55,481 --> 00:11:57,316
Let's talk about whatever you
want.
177
00:11:57,383 --> 00:11:59,385
No pressure.
178
00:12:08,828 --> 00:12:13,766
>> Chelsea: It feels like I've
been running on empty
179
00:12:13,833 --> 00:12:17,837
for as long as I can remember.
>> Dr. Malone: Do you mean weeks
180
00:12:17,903 --> 00:12:22,675
or months?
>> Chelsea: I'm not sure,
181
00:12:22,741 --> 00:12:24,110
really.
I mean, I guess if I think about
182
00:12:24,176 --> 00:12:30,149
it, um...
maybe years.
183
00:12:30,216 --> 00:12:31,984
I've been running
from my emotions,
184
00:12:32,051 --> 00:12:38,124
really, since I was young.
I mean,
185
00:12:38,190 --> 00:12:40,726
as far back as I can remember,
like -- like, being a teenager,
186
00:12:40,793 --> 00:12:44,797
I remember having these feelings
that were
187
00:12:44,864 --> 00:12:50,903
unpredictable and dangerous.
>> Dr. Malone: In what way?
188
00:12:50,970 --> 00:12:56,075
>> Chelsea: Like, they were
threatening to overtake me,
189
00:12:56,142 --> 00:12:59,645
and I had to fend them off.
>> Dr. Malone: How did you do
190
00:12:59,712 --> 00:13:03,382
that?
>> Chelsea: Well, I mean, any
191
00:13:03,449 --> 00:13:08,120
way I could think of, you know,
just keeping busy.
192
00:13:10,890 --> 00:13:14,693
I ran cons when I was a kid
or, you know,
193
00:13:14,760 --> 00:13:18,430
getting into relationships,
dramas that would keep my mind
194
00:13:18,497 --> 00:13:23,669
so busy that I wouldn't have
time to stop and feel.
195
00:13:26,939 --> 00:13:35,047
I spent many years like that.
I know it wasn't, um...
196
00:13:37,716 --> 00:13:40,519
It wasn't until I had my stroke
that I finally just, like,
197
00:13:40,586 --> 00:13:46,759
couldn't escape myself.
And recently it's felt like...
198
00:13:46,825 --> 00:13:53,899
[ Sighs ]
Like no matter how fast I run,
199
00:13:53,966 --> 00:14:01,307
the pain and the darkness
is just faster.
200
00:14:04,243 --> 00:14:12,618
And the other night, I just...
I just couldn't run anymore.
201
00:14:12,685 --> 00:14:15,521
>> Dr. Malone: What did that
feel like?
202
00:14:15,588 --> 00:14:20,392
>> Chelsea: [ Sighs ]
I'm just so tired.
203
00:14:24,697 --> 00:14:27,733
And I couldn't take the pain
any longer.
204
00:14:30,402 --> 00:14:34,540
>> Nate: What else would you
like to discuss?
205
00:14:34,607 --> 00:14:38,077
>> Amanda: For starters, did you
even consider the potential
206
00:14:38,143 --> 00:14:40,512
legal trouble that you'd be
setting yourself up for?
207
00:14:40,579 --> 00:14:42,448
And Victoria and Newman
by feeding them
208
00:14:42,514 --> 00:14:45,117
confidential information
that would help them take
209
00:14:45,184 --> 00:14:46,919
control of Chancellor-Winters?
>> Nate: Hm, that's funny,
210
00:14:46,986 --> 00:14:48,654
because I never said I was
talking to Victoria.
211
00:14:48,721 --> 00:14:52,224
>> Amanda: Okay. Fine.
For the sake of argument,
212
00:14:52,291 --> 00:14:54,893
let's say that it was some
other CEO and not the company
213
00:14:54,960 --> 00:14:58,464
that you're going to work for.
The risk to you
214
00:14:58,530 --> 00:15:01,800
and Company X remains the same.
>> Nate: What risk?
215
00:15:01,867 --> 00:15:05,170
Nothing came of it.
I told Devon and Lily and Billy
216
00:15:05,237 --> 00:15:07,873
before it ever got that far.
So your warnings are late
217
00:15:07,940 --> 00:15:11,076
and pointless.
>> Amanda: Alright.
218
00:15:11,143 --> 00:15:14,246
Okay, fine.
Let's put the business aspect
219
00:15:14,313 --> 00:15:18,217
of this aside for now.
Let me ask you this.
220
00:15:18,284 --> 00:15:20,753
Do you have any idea
how deeply you've hurt Devon?
221
00:15:20,819 --> 00:15:23,122
Have you tried to make things
right with him?
222
00:15:23,188 --> 00:15:29,695
Are you even planning to?
>> Victoria: I don't, and I
223
00:15:29,762 --> 00:15:33,866
don't for one second regret
how we reacted to Chelsea
224
00:15:33,932 --> 00:15:38,037
pushing to have some sort
of connection with Johnny.
225
00:15:38,103 --> 00:15:41,774
My job is is to parent him,
and that comes first.
226
00:15:41,840 --> 00:15:43,942
I still think that I made the
right decision insisting that
227
00:15:44,009 --> 00:15:47,479
Chelsea accept that Johnny's
the one who gets to decide
228
00:15:47,546 --> 00:15:51,450
how he wants to connect
with her in the future.
229
00:15:51,517 --> 00:15:54,053
>> Billy: No, no, I agree.
I'm not arguing that point.
230
00:15:54,119 --> 00:15:58,257
>> Victoria: And she agreed to
it at the time, if you remember.
231
00:15:58,324 --> 00:16:01,060
And then when we told Johnny
that she was his biological
232
00:16:01,126 --> 00:16:05,798
mother, she just changed her
mind.
233
00:16:05,864 --> 00:16:07,566
>> Billy: Well, I think
she was a little surprised
234
00:16:07,633 --> 00:16:10,502
he had such a negative reaction,
Vick.
235
00:16:10,569 --> 00:16:13,772
I mean, it obviously really
threw her.
236
00:16:13,839 --> 00:16:15,941
>> Victoria: I'm sorry.
I'm sorry if she's having a hard
237
00:16:16,008 --> 00:16:17,676
time with this.
I really am.
238
00:16:17,743 --> 00:16:19,211
And that she's having
more feelings about it
239
00:16:19,278 --> 00:16:21,647
that she realized.
But we're all having
240
00:16:21,714 --> 00:16:25,551
very intense feelings
about this and our son is upset
241
00:16:25,617 --> 00:16:28,087
and I'm going to respect that
and protect it.
242
00:16:28,153 --> 00:16:29,822
And according to you,
Chelsea understood that.
243
00:16:29,888 --> 00:16:32,658
She admitted that she went
too far when she -- when
244
00:16:32,725 --> 00:16:36,595
she spoke to Johnny directly.
>> Billy: You're right.
245
00:16:36,662 --> 00:16:41,900
>> Victoria: I'm right?
Did you ask me if I'm upset
246
00:16:41,967 --> 00:16:45,371
because you are sincerely
curious,
247
00:16:45,437 --> 00:16:48,507
or do you expect me to feel
guilty about how Chelsea
248
00:16:48,574 --> 00:16:54,313
is affected by all of this?
>> Billy: I'm not blaming
249
00:16:54,380 --> 00:16:57,950
anyone, Vick.
I'm not pointing any fingers.
250
00:16:58,016 --> 00:16:59,985
You know, maybe I'm the one
that's projecting.
251
00:17:00,052 --> 00:17:03,589
Maybe I'm the one
that feels guilty.
252
00:17:03,655 --> 00:17:07,893
I can't help but wonder that
there's probably a different way
253
00:17:07,960 --> 00:17:14,533
that I could've handled this.
>> Esther: I think that Devon
254
00:17:14,600 --> 00:17:17,035
has been working from home
occasionally because of the
255
00:17:17,102 --> 00:17:21,473
baby.
Dominic is so cute.
256
00:17:21,540 --> 00:17:23,876
I wish he'd bring
that little dumpling to the
257
00:17:23,942 --> 00:17:26,578
office more often
so that I could babysit.
258
00:17:26,645 --> 00:17:29,648
I can answer the phones and take
care of that cutie pie.
259
00:17:29,715 --> 00:17:31,617
>> Lily: Yeah, yeah, that's
actually a great idea.
260
00:17:31,683 --> 00:17:35,487
I'll let Devon know.
>> Jill: [ Chuckles ]
261
00:17:35,554 --> 00:17:41,193
Speaking of answering phones,
I think I hear one ringing.
262
00:17:41,260 --> 00:17:52,938
>> Esther: I'll go check.
>> Jill: Okay.
263
00:17:53,005 --> 00:17:55,641
[ Bag thuds ]
Where's Billy?
264
00:17:55,707 --> 00:17:59,311
I've been calling and calling.
He hasn't answered.
265
00:17:59,378 --> 00:18:04,716
I figured, with Nate's mutiny,
he would be here day and night,
266
00:18:04,783 --> 00:18:08,520
filling in as the last remaining
COO.
267
00:18:08,587 --> 00:18:12,191
>> Lily: Uh...I really think
that you should speak to Billy
268
00:18:12,257 --> 00:18:14,660
directly.
>> Jill: Yeah, well,
269
00:18:14,726 --> 00:18:19,231
I'm not asking Billy.
I'm asking you, as the CEO,
270
00:18:19,298 --> 00:18:24,870
where is your COO?
>> Lily: You're right.
271
00:18:24,937 --> 00:18:28,607
You're right.
I am the CEO,
272
00:18:28,674 --> 00:18:33,979
so it's my responsibility
to inform you...
273
00:18:34,046 --> 00:18:36,381
Billy has resigned.
274
00:18:45,023 --> 00:18:48,660
>> Jill: You're telling me that
my son up and quit?
275
00:18:48,727 --> 00:18:51,029
>> Lily: I think that you should
speak to him so he can explain
276
00:18:51,096 --> 00:18:52,998
his reasons.
>> Jill: Oh, I will.
277
00:18:53,065 --> 00:18:56,201
Believe me, we will have that
conversation.
278
00:18:56,268 --> 00:18:59,071
This is so disappointing.
No, I take it back.
279
00:18:59,137 --> 00:19:02,741
It is so infuriating.
>> Lily: Okay, Jill.
280
00:19:02,808 --> 00:19:05,010
I promise you,
I have things under control.
281
00:19:05,077 --> 00:19:08,013
>> Jill: Well, it is still
outrageous, and his timing is
282
00:19:08,080 --> 00:19:11,783
impeccable, isn't it?
He's leaving you down two COOs.
283
00:19:11,850 --> 00:19:16,088
>> Lily: Okay, look,
I know that it's frustrating.
284
00:19:16,154 --> 00:19:19,725
Trust me, I do.
But let me take off my CEO
285
00:19:19,791 --> 00:19:23,929
hat for a minute and speak
as somebody who loves Billy.
286
00:19:23,996 --> 00:19:26,899
This is clearly what he needs,
okay?
287
00:19:26,965 --> 00:19:28,967
He's been wanting to walk away
for a while.
288
00:19:29,034 --> 00:19:32,404
He's -- He is not passionate
about his work here.
289
00:19:32,471 --> 00:19:34,740
>> Jill: Well, that may be, you
know, but there are certain
290
00:19:34,806 --> 00:19:37,643
realities that we all have to
face, don't we?
291
00:19:37,709 --> 00:19:40,646
One of them being that this
company is at a critical point
292
00:19:40,712 --> 00:19:44,216
in its development
and losing two senior executives
293
00:19:44,283 --> 00:19:48,587
is not good, Lily.
Oh, and the reasons for these
294
00:19:48,654 --> 00:19:50,956
exits?
They're even worse.
295
00:19:51,023 --> 00:19:54,426
I mean, Nate gets fired
'cause he's a traitor,
296
00:19:54,493 --> 00:19:58,363
and Billy resigns
because he just can't figure out
297
00:19:58,430 --> 00:20:00,599
his life yet.
>> Lily: Well, I don't think
298
00:20:00,666 --> 00:20:02,801
Billy is as flaky as
you're making him sound.
299
00:20:02,868 --> 00:20:04,770
>> Jill: Yeah, well,
I don't know about that
300
00:20:04,836 --> 00:20:08,874
because he's not a college kid
looking for a gap year, is he?
301
00:20:08,941 --> 00:20:11,476
He should've had the good
sense to stick around
302
00:20:11,543 --> 00:20:13,612
and help you through this
as somebody who loves you.
303
00:20:13,679 --> 00:20:16,648
>> Lily: He wanted to. He did.
I was the one who urged him
304
00:20:16,715 --> 00:20:18,750
to go.
I didn't want him here.
305
00:20:18,817 --> 00:20:20,953
His head and heart weren't in
it.
306
00:20:21,019 --> 00:20:23,488
You know, it honestly made
things harder.
307
00:20:23,555 --> 00:20:28,727
>> Jill: I'm so ashamed of my
son, and I'm just --
308
00:20:28,794 --> 00:20:32,230
I'm so sorry on your behalf.
One of the reasons that I wanted
309
00:20:32,297 --> 00:20:36,068
him to work alongside you
was to give him focus.
310
00:20:36,134 --> 00:20:39,538
I thought this company would
give him a sense of purpose.
311
00:20:39,605 --> 00:20:41,573
[ Sighs ]
What's he going to do
312
00:20:41,640 --> 00:20:49,948
with his time now?
>> Billy: Dr. Malone, hi.
313
00:20:50,015 --> 00:20:54,786
I'm actually really glad I ran
into you.
314
00:20:54,853 --> 00:20:57,155
I just wanted to see
how Chelsea's feeling
315
00:20:57,222 --> 00:21:00,258
before I go in there and --
and say hi.
316
00:21:00,325 --> 00:21:03,629
And, uh [sighs]
I guess I just want to
317
00:21:03,695 --> 00:21:06,298
understand how I can help.
You know, is there certain
318
00:21:06,365 --> 00:21:09,501
things that I should say or --
or not say?
319
00:21:09,568 --> 00:21:11,870
>> Dr. Malone: You know, the
most important thing is that she
320
00:21:11,937 --> 00:21:14,373
knows that she has people who
support her and are concerned
321
00:21:14,439 --> 00:21:17,442
about her but who aren't judging

Knowing that she has people in

I believe part of the reason
Devon's been so antagonistic
