01:02you
01:14You have no idea
01:42What's going on in my relationship
01:44Relationship
01:46You know, you wave that
01:47Like you're some expert
01:48But how many times
01:50You've been married
01:51Or should I
01:52Divorced
01:52And now you're all alone
01:54It gets very clear
01:55You don't have what it takes
01:56To maintain a serious
01:57Long-term relationship
01:58From someone who has
01:59Never been married
02:00Has no family
02:02Can't keep anyone around
02:04Longer than it takes
02:05To use them up
02:06You have no idea
02:07What the hell
02:08You're talking about
02:09And you do
02:10Oh, thank you
02:10This is just what I needed
02:12A nice quiet drink
02:13With a woman I love
02:14Thank you for getting me
02:15Out of the house
02:16We've had enough drama
02:18For one night
02:18It's time to relax
02:19I know you, Kyle Abbott
02:21How weak you are
02:22How spoiled
02:23You have been a failure
02:24At every relationship
02:25That you have ever tried
02:26And now
02:27You are losing Claire
02:28To Holden
02:30Okay, you may remove
02:42Remove your hands
02:44What do you think?
02:50Well
02:51Last time you had a piano player
02:53And instead of champagne
02:56You had martinis
02:57You made them
02:58You made them
02:58Just the way I like them
02:59Well
03:02I like to switch it up
03:03What was going on with you?
03:06I thought you were excited
03:08For an evening of romance
03:09I thought you were going to tell me
03:10How you knocked it out
03:11Of the ballpark
03:12With Christine's wedding dresses
03:14Well, that was until you
03:16Kept me waiting
03:18Then I started to think
03:20You do these grand gesture dinners
03:22Usually when you've done something
03:24To tick me off
03:25Not always
03:30You know, you're right
03:32The last time was to tell me
03:35That you were going to quit
03:36Working for Victor
03:37So what is it this time, Michael?
03:42Good news or bad news?
03:43Whatever it is
03:46You better start talking
03:48Claire and I are committed
03:54To making our relationship work
03:56Does she know that?
03:58Okay, you know what?
03:59It's time to go
03:59You know, it seems to me
04:01That Claire is much more committed
04:03To hanging out with Holden
04:05That's enough
04:05He's even turned her on
04:06To his favorite drink
04:07But it is obvious
04:08She is turned on
04:10By much more than his best friend
04:11Of course
04:12You only have
04:14Yourself to blame
04:15You drove her straight
04:17Into Holden's big strong arms
04:19You don't know
04:19What the hell you're talking about
04:20Okay, you
04:21You lied to her
04:23Your sweet powder puff
04:25Almost murdered a girlfriend
04:26It's all worked up
04:27Leave Claire out of this
04:29This is all about you
04:31Not only did you lie to her
04:33But you have been lying to yourself
04:34You told yourself the lie
04:36Was to protect her
04:37But the only person
04:38You care to protect is you
04:39Oh, that's ridiculous
04:40Oh, is it
04:41You were on that bed with me
04:44With nothing but a towel between us
04:47But you go ahead
04:49And tell yourself
04:49Whatever you want
04:50About what happened
04:51The facts are
04:52That you are a weak man
04:54Kyle
04:55Who can't face the truth
04:56About who you really are
04:57And what you really want
04:58Shut the hell up
04:59Why?
05:00The truth is too much for you
05:01Okay, okay, okay
05:02Let's turn it down
05:03A notch
05:04Or ten
05:04Where are you?
05:05All the way at the entrance
05:06What is going on?
05:08The usual
05:08Audra's on the attack
05:10Though it makes her feel
05:11Like she's in control
05:12It's just pathetic
05:13No, what's pathetic
05:14Is having your daddy
05:15Come rescue you every time
05:16Okay, we're done here
05:18You know, you are so lucky
05:20To have a rich father
05:22Who can just bail you out
05:23With a job
05:23And a room at the mansion
05:24Whenever your career tanks
05:26Okay, let's go
05:27Okay
05:27Stay the hell away from me
05:29And Claire
05:30Yeah, learn how to hold your liquor
05:32What are you waiting for?
05:37Go get your drunk son
05:38Away from me
05:39I'm not going anywhere
05:40Now, I thought that you were
05:47Going to throw your arms around me
05:49And tell me that I was
05:51The most romantic husband
05:52In the world
05:53And instead you go all cynical
05:55I mean, do you really think
05:56I'm that shallow?
05:58That this is anything less
06:00Than the simple fact
06:02That I love you
06:04You are very romantic
06:07This is very romantic
06:10But you have a track record
06:13Of going all out
06:14To soften me up
06:16Right now
06:18The only thought in my head
06:19Is to spoil you, rotten
06:21Oh
06:22Well, I never turned down
06:24A good spoiler
06:25To my gorgeous
06:29Magnificent wife
06:31Even if she does know
06:33How to spoil the mood
06:34To restoring the mood
06:39Oh, there she is
06:41Come here
06:43You sprung for the good stuff
06:53Yeah, I got my buck-fifties worth
06:54So I thought these big fancy dinners
06:58Were a thing of a past
06:59Now that you're not working
07:00With Victor anymore
07:01Yeah, well
07:02If you'd been raised by Gloria
07:03You'd be thrifty too
07:04But luckily
07:06I married money
07:07There's so many hours in the day
07:12How do you fill your time?
07:16Have you seen Victor lately?
07:17Yes
07:19You know what?
07:21I would much rather
07:22Dance with the most beautiful woman in the room
07:25I'm the only woman in the room
07:28I'd make it simple
07:29Oh, okay
07:30I am not in the mood for whatever this is
07:51Too bad
07:51Okay, maybe we don't have to do this at all
07:54Oh, I'm not going to make a scene
07:56She's already done that
07:57I just want to clear the air
07:58Oh, well, the best way to do that would be to get out of my face
08:01I think that is actually a really great idea
08:03Sally, you know what this woman is capable of
08:05Diane, she's my friend
08:07She is no one's friend
08:09You played her like you play everyone
08:12You talked your way into a job
08:14That there was no way Jack was ever going to let you play
08:16Okay, that's not how it went down at all
08:19And it doesn't even matter now, does it?
08:21Abbott Communications no longer exists
08:23And while I'm sorry that the company is gone
08:25Before it had a chance to make its mark
08:26I am not sorry
08:27That you are back where you belong
08:30On the street
08:31I will land on my feet
08:33Like I always do
08:34Unlike your son
08:35Stay away from Kyle
08:36He confronted me, okay
08:38One or two shots of whiskey
08:39And then he got all brave and started with the insults
08:41And you didn't goad him into it?
08:43As a matter of fact
08:44I realized I made a mistake
08:45And I was going to apologize
08:46Who the hell you are?
08:48It's true
08:49You can ask Sally
08:50She did have regrets
08:54You see?
08:56You know, this whole little drama was all Kyle
08:59And just so we're clear
09:00I want nothing to do with your son
09:03But if he keeps coming at me
09:04I'm not going to just sit back and take it
09:06I will always defend myself
09:08And I will always call things as I see them
09:10Well, I'm curious
09:11How exactly do you see this situation?
09:14Is this you taking a victory lap?
09:16Because the reality is
09:18You've lost everything
09:19Okay, Audra
09:20Hey, the reality is
09:22Is that your son is hardly the golden child
09:24You pretend he is
09:26He moons all over town about Claire
09:29He puts on this good show
09:30About how much he loves her
09:32How sorry he is
09:33How she's the one
09:34But when he kissed me in France
09:37Claire was the last person on his mind
09:40Wait, what kind of person would be that twisted?
09:45Oh, of course
09:46His mommy
09:48Now drink it
09:54I will buy you a pot of coffee
09:55I need to get back over there and help mom
09:57Your mom can deal with Audra
09:59That woman is out of control
10:01That may be
10:02But you can't let her get under your skin like this
10:05Audra was attacking Claire
10:07No, from what I heard
10:08Audra was attacking your relationship with Claire
10:10So what?
10:11I'm supposed to take it?
10:13That's not an option
10:14You figure it out, Kyle
10:16But you're only doing damage to your relationship with Claire
10:19If you allow her to provoke you
10:22I'm not sure how much of this woman's history
10:26You really know
10:27But this whole respectable thing she's playing at
10:30Tucker has told me plenty
10:33And it turns out she used to be quite the conniver back in the day
10:36Weren't you?
10:38Whatever you and I have done is nothing compared to the woman who's conned how many people?
10:43I mean half of Genoa City genuinely wanted her dead at some point
10:46And fun fact
10:47She actually faked her own life
10:49All right, yes, yes, yes
10:50I have quite the history
10:51And I fully own it
10:52But I've put Tucker and my past behind me
10:55You, however
10:56You seem to have embraced his obsession with power and revenge
11:00And just making people miserable
11:03My history, Audra
11:06Is also why I'm on to you
11:08What do they say these days?
11:10Game recognizes game
11:11Okay, well, if you're so good
11:12Why can't you see what your son really is?
11:15He plays this whole squeaky clean nepo baby
11:19But the truth is that your son
11:20Likes to get down and dirty to get what he wants
11:23And the dirtier, the better
11:25I mean, a person like that
11:26That twisted deserves to suffer
11:29All right, Audra, just stop
11:31What you want deep down
11:34Isn't for Kyle to suffer
11:35You want him all for yourself
11:37And you're just throwing tantrums
11:41And making scenes
11:42Because you know
11:43That you will never, ever have him
11:47I think I'm thirsty
11:51Oh, well, I have got the perfect solution
11:54So
11:58Tell me
12:00How did Christine feel about your dress choices?
12:05Oh, it was fantastic
12:07We turned the fashion show into a photo shoot
12:11And she loved all three of them
12:13So much so she's having trouble figuring out which one she wants to wear
12:18So
12:19She thinks she's going to wear all three of them
12:22Over the course of the wedding festivities
12:24She's so cute
12:26Of course Christine loves your dresses
12:27You're the force behind getting them designed and made
12:31And
12:31As everyone knows
12:34You
12:34Are a fashion genius
12:37Flattery works very well with me
12:41Which you know
12:46And you use very well
12:48Well
12:50You're going to spoil the moment
12:52I just feel like you've done something
12:56And I'm not going to like it
12:59Can we just enjoy ourselves?
13:02Tell me about where you went after I left you
13:06Enough
13:09Float away
13:11I will settle for slightly sober
13:13I can take you upstairs
13:14We can get you some food
13:15I'm fine
13:16You are a few too many single malts from fine
13:19I do not need my co-CEO getting drunk and making a scene in public
13:25Look, Audra needed to be called out
13:26And I will continue to do that every chance I get
13:29Until she crawls back under her rock
13:31You know, I need to go help her
13:32No, wait, just stop
13:33I need you to get serious now
13:36Look, we took a major PR hit when Avid Communications did not launch
13:41I don't need you going viral to make things worse
13:45Okay, that's the last thing I want
13:47Good
13:47Because we have more serious things to attend to
13:50Things you need to get caught up on
13:53That affect more than just Chabot
13:56They affect the family
13:57What happened?
13:59You know what?
14:00I don't even want to get into this
14:01Well, I can still smell vapors from here
14:03No, no, I'm sober
14:04I'm sober
14:05I'm on my way to being sober
14:07Ugh
14:08That Audra is a piece of work
14:10I was just starting to fill Kyle in
14:13On the latest regarding Billy
14:15What did he do now?
14:16My brother has had a complete turnaround
14:18He has now declared war against Kane
14:22Wait, Billy has declared war against Kane?
14:26What's happened?
14:31I hired you because I needed dirt on Kane
14:34I needed you to follow him around
14:35And you haven't come up with anything
14:37So what is going on?
14:38Damn it
14:41You need to do more
14:43Okay?
14:44You need to dig deeper
14:45I don't care
14:47Just get the job done
14:48And if you do it well
14:49Well, maybe there'll be a bonus for you at the end
14:51Get it done
14:53Not done with you yet, Ashby
15:01Excuse me
15:09Come with me
15:11Now, please
15:13Just sit
15:15Alright, I will be right back
15:18Hi
15:23Hi
15:24I think we need to talk, Sally
15:27Yeah
15:28Apparently
15:29I just ran into your brother
15:30And he said that you're declaring war on Kane
15:33Well, if we could meet
15:34I, uh
15:35I'll explain everything
15:37I don't know
15:39Billy
15:39Please
15:40Sally, it's important
15:42So I meet up with you
15:44And then what?
15:45Abba Communications is on
15:46And then it's off
15:46Your buddies with Kane
15:47And now your enemies
15:48We're solid
15:49And now I don't even know
15:51What we are
15:52I can't keep up
15:54Billy
15:54And I don't know
15:56If I want to
15:57Believe it or not
15:58I'm doing this for us
15:59You keep saying that
16:01But in the end
16:02It is always just about you
16:04My entire future
16:06Just blew up
16:07I need a plan
16:08And that means I need to move forward
16:09With something solid
16:10Audra and I are already discussing
16:12Ways to move forward on our own
16:14Audra Charles, Sally
16:16Don't start
16:17Fine, look
16:18I'm sorry
16:19I just
16:19I don't want you to make any rash moves
16:21You're warning me about making rash moves
16:24Have you looked in the mirror?
16:25Okay
16:26I know I deserve that
16:27But I also know that there's an answer
16:30I'm sorry, Billy
16:32But I am done with promises
16:33And with dreams
16:34And with what ifs
16:35I need stability in my life
16:37A defined future
16:38And I'm really not sure
16:40That's in whatever answer
16:41You think you have
16:42Sally, if you'll just meet me
16:44I know we can get there
16:47I don't think it's a hard question
16:53I don't think it's an important question
16:55I went to go see Christine
16:58You went?
17:01Do you think that this just happened?
17:04I spent the entire time preparing for this evening
17:08As wonderful as this is
17:11This is one phone call to Abby
17:13And the question remains
17:15Where did you go?
17:18And what did you do?
17:21That's two questions
17:22I'd like you to answer them both
17:25Oh my god, what is that?
17:33They're playing our song
17:34You see how I did that?
17:38I synced my phone up with the sound system
17:40Before your arrival
17:41That kind of attention to detail
17:44When you are planning a romantic soiree
17:47That takes
17:48What does it take?
17:50Time
17:50Thoughtfulness now
17:52Would you care to go for a spin?
17:56Why?
17:57So you could use the time
17:58To make up another excuse?
18:03I'm not moving
18:04That was Billy, wasn't it?
18:11Yep
18:11What do you want?
18:13Oh no
18:13No you don't
18:14What?
18:15No, we're gonna start with you
18:16I mean, it was bad enough
18:18That your apology to Kyle
18:20Turned into burning him down
18:21But you really had to go after Diane, too
18:23Okay, first off
18:24I never actually said
18:25I wanted to apologize to Kyle
18:27That was your idea
18:28You admitted that you messed up
18:31To you, my friend
18:33In confidence
18:33It's not my fault
18:35He's a drunken fool
18:36Who needed to be put in his place
18:38Okay, but we literally just agreed
18:39That we were not gonna let men
18:41Dictate our actions anymore
18:42Absolutely
18:43But sometimes
18:45They need a smackdown
18:47Right, but you let Kyle
18:49Walk you directly
18:50Into that stupid fight
18:51That was totally beneath you
18:53Yeah, but it
18:55It felt so good
18:57Okay, I will try to let it go
19:00Okay, I swear
19:01Except for when it feels good
19:04Baby steps
19:06To be fair
19:12I do understand
19:14Going after Kyle
19:15But seriously
19:16Going after Diane
19:18You said horrible things to her
19:21They were all true
19:22Baby, coming at me
19:24Like some mama bear
19:25Protecting her crone-ass son
19:27It's obvious that that woman
19:30Is clearly still compensating
19:32For all the years
19:32She let him believe she was dead
19:34So, I stand by every word
19:36Okay, but did you have to be so loud?
19:38And so public
19:40Again
19:41I was just
19:43Sitting here
19:44Enjoying a drink with my friend
19:45Minding my own business
19:47When I was attacked
19:48First, Kyle
19:49And then his mother
19:50You know me, Sally
19:52If someone strikes
19:54I'm gonna strike back
19:55And didn't we just have this conversation
19:58Standing up for ourselves
19:59Speaking truth to power
20:01And all that
20:01Yeah
20:02Yeah, no, you're right
20:04So
20:07Can we move on?
20:09Sure
20:09Okay, Billy
20:12What did he say?
20:14Did he apologize?
20:16Did he grovel as he should?
20:17Did he beg you to come back?
20:20I told him that I was moving forward
20:22With my life
20:23And my plan
20:24Like we discussed
20:25We would chart our own course
20:27Good for you
20:28How do you take it?
20:30Can you believe that he actually told me
20:33Not to do anything rash?
20:36Those words actually came out of
20:38Billy Abbott's mouth
20:38Yeah
20:39Right
20:40Don't let him doubt us
20:43We're gonna show him
20:44What two brilliant women can create
20:45When we put our minds to it
20:47As a matter of fact
20:48Let's get another round to celebrate
20:50Actually, Audra
20:51Billy asked me to meet up with him
20:54He said that he wants to explain
20:57What's going on
20:58And why he's suddenly going to war with Kane
21:00Did you agree?
21:04I seem genuinely sorry
21:06As he should be
21:08But it doesn't mean that anything has changed
21:10Yeah, except for it seems like
21:13Billy's plan with Kane really has blown up
21:15So he just wants you right there
21:17To help him pick up the pieces
21:19He wants you to be his shoulder to cry on
21:22Because what? Billy couldn't get what he wanted
21:24I don't know
21:26Maybe I should go hear him out
21:28So he can make all kinds of promises
21:31That mean nothing?
21:33We already know Billy's endgame
21:35He wants you right back
21:37Where you were as his trusty sidekick
21:39That's unfair
21:41Is it?
21:42This is exactly what we were talking about
21:45Not letting men dictate our choices
21:48We choose what we want
21:50Not them
21:50So if you choose to go with Billy
21:54He's going to drag you down with him
21:56That is exactly what's going to happen
21:58I thought that when Audra was exposed
22:06For the lying, conniving, mercenary bitch that she is
22:09That that would be the end of her
22:10She's just as nasty as ever
22:12And just as dangerous
22:14Kyle
22:15You need to promise me that you're going to stay away from her
22:18Hard to do in a town the size of General City
22:21But I can handle her
22:24Oh really?
22:25By downing Scotch and creating a scene in public?
22:28Probably wasn't my best choice
22:30And I promise I will try to avoid her in the future
22:34It does feel good to take her down
22:37Please try to avoid the temptation
22:40We have enough worries without you bringing more troubles from Audra
22:44Worried as in Billy declaring war on Cain?
22:47When did that happen?
22:49Why?
22:50Billy went all in on Cain
22:52Thinking he could get control of Chancellor back
22:54And he got in over his head
22:56What happened?
22:58Cain made promises and then reneged
23:01And now Billy has lost avid communications
23:03And possibly his relationship with Sally
23:05I'm sorry to hear that
23:07But I'm glad Billy has finally seen the truth
23:10That Cain can't be trusted
23:12And now my brother is on fire to go to war
23:15I am all for doing whatever it takes to protect the family
23:19And I'm glad Billy is with us
23:21Not against us
23:23Problem is
23:25They ever really trust him to stick to his opinion?
23:31You came
23:39Said it was important
23:43I'm grateful you did
23:46I went to see Jack and Diane
23:49I told them everything
23:52Your plan to use the threat of Cain's AI
23:55Program
23:56To blackmail Victor
23:57And to handing you Chancellor
23:58Yeah I know
24:00I was pretty furious
24:02And I felt betrayed
24:05The truth is I'm the one that betrayed you
24:09Look you were right
24:11Sally
24:12I became obsessed with a bunch of shiny objects
24:16Like the Chancellor
24:18And
24:18My hatred for Victor
24:20And proving my mother wrong
24:22And I lost my focus
24:25And
24:26You tried to warn me
24:28To this realization that you had
24:31Did you get some grand epiphany and walk away
24:34Or did something happen?
24:37Well I know that Cain can't be trusted
24:39It's not an answer
24:42You were right
24:44I mean you were dead on
24:47About everything
24:48And any deal that I have with Cain
24:52Is off
24:53Permanently
24:54Right
24:55Until Cain knocks on your door
24:57And hands you a
24:58Shiny new offer to take down Victor
25:00Some gamble that you can't resist
25:02That's not gonna happen
25:03How can I trust that?
25:05Because I thought Cain was the brass ring
25:07That was gonna give me everything I needed
25:09And everything I wanted
25:10And he's not
25:11And I put you through hell
25:13I tore up the future that we had
25:15And the trust that you had in me
25:17Cain is not
25:18Gonna give me what I want
25:20Or what I need
25:21Do you even know what that is, Billy?
25:27It's you
25:27You're what I need
25:30Can you forgive me?
25:32I am done with this cat and mouse
25:38I am going to sit here
25:41As long as it takes
25:42For you to come clean
25:43What is
25:45Where is all this coming from?
25:48That phone call
25:49That you sent a voicemail
25:51And that text that you tried to tell me
25:53Was spam
25:53You are hiding something
25:56And I need you to tell me what it is
25:59Why do you always have to be so suspicious?
26:01Oh, let me think
26:02Because I know you
26:04The only thing I've kept secret from you
26:08Is this
26:10I mean
26:13What else would I possibly be hiding?
26:17And why would I?
26:20It's Victor, isn't it?
26:24Why would you say that?
26:25He's trying to lure you back to work
26:27And you're tempted
26:29And you're afraid to tell me
26:32Because you think I'm going to go crazy
26:33Is that what you really think?
26:37I know what working for Victor meant to you
26:40And I know what it took for you to walk away
26:44And damage a relationship
26:46That's been central in your life for so long
26:49I have felt so much peace
26:51Since you have stopped working for him
26:54I don't have to worry if you're in compromising positions
26:58Or if you're choosing loyalty between one of our friends
27:03And your boss
27:04Or if you're in a Peruvian jail
27:06You're safe
27:08We're happy
27:10And that joy means more to me
27:14Than all of these fancy dinners
27:16I know the sacrifice that you made
27:19For me
27:22And I love you even more for it
27:26Michael, please go
27:28Tell me we're not going backward
27:30Please tell me that
27:33Look, I swear to you
27:34Victor's not luring me away to anything
27:37I really hope you're telling me the truth
27:40Because let me be crystal clear with you
27:44If you are lying to me about anything
27:49I will not forgive you
27:53There will be no coming back from this
27:57From the bottom of my ragged, undeserving heart
28:05I never want anything to come between us
28:08Especially something that there could be
28:10No coming back from
28:11I just love you so damn much
28:18That's what tonight is about
28:20I just wanted you to feel precious
28:25Because you're so precious to me
28:28And you have a way with words
28:32And I feel the love
28:34But the question remains
28:37Where were you earlier
28:40And what were you doing?
28:51Not going to answer?
28:53Nope
28:53Not even look at it?
28:55No
28:55Now I know there's something wrong
28:57Fine
29:00Okay
29:01It's Finn
29:04It's Finn
29:06Hi
29:07Hi, sweetheart
29:08How are you?
29:12Forgive you
29:13No, it's a big ask
29:17I don't know if I can
29:23And I deserve that
29:27But you're going to ask anyway
29:29I screwed up, Sally
29:31I screwed up
29:35I would do anything I can to earn your trust again
29:40Will you give me a chance to do that?
29:43Billy, I have already given you so many chances
29:49To be honest with me and to keep your promises
29:52And look where it got me
29:53I'm done being manipulated
29:56I hope you don't feel like I intentionally manipulated you
29:59I only wanted your success, Sally
30:01You told me that Jack pulled his funding
30:06But that was a lie
30:07You told your brother to keep his money
30:11And then you led me to believe that my only chance of running a company
30:14Is if I teamed up with you against Victor
30:16That your grand blackmail scheme was the jackpot for Abbott Communications
30:21That all I had to do was say yes
30:23Even though you knew I found the entire thing morally repugnant
30:27That reeks of manipulation
30:29And you didn't even break a sweat
30:31I'm sorry
30:34I had a job
30:37A career that I loved
30:40That I was damn good at
30:41And what did I do?
30:44A little sweet talk
30:46And a little promise here and there
30:48And I gave it all up
30:49I put all of my hopes and dreams
30:52Into what you wanted
30:53I poured my heart and soul
30:55Into making your company a success
30:57And making you happy
30:58And what do I have to show for it?
31:00Nothing
31:01I have absolutely nothing
31:04No job
31:05No company
31:06And now I don't even know where we stand
31:08I let you down
31:11I let you down in every possible way
31:15And I'm sorry
31:15And I know you're angry
31:17And you deserve to be angry at me
31:19But please just
31:20Let me try and get us back on track
31:23Especially now that everything's changed
31:27I want to believe in Billy
31:33That he's putting family first
31:35And not his ambitions
31:36Or his obsession with Chancellor
31:38But Kyle's right
31:39He's been all over the place
31:41Even before we left her niece
31:43I mean, how many times
31:44Have you gotten into it with him?
31:46Him flip-flopping about Abbott communications
31:48Which he's already lost
31:50I cannot disagree with any of this
31:52All I can tell you
31:53Is when I spoke to Billy
31:54He sounded like he wanted nothing
31:56To do with Cain again
31:58Tomorrow's another day
31:59And God knows where Billy's head'll be
32:01Exactly
32:02And if we're really facing an attack from Cain
32:05We need to be able to trust Billy
32:08You know how easily Cain can manipulate him
32:11This is my worry too
32:12If we're going to defend Jabot against Cain
32:16We need to have a united family
32:18Okay, so what's the game plan?
32:21Do we have one?
32:22Do we have specifics about our potential threats?
32:25It appears Cain's secret weapon is an AI program
32:29That gets inside a company's cyber system
32:31And wreaks havoc
32:33Weakens it financially
32:34Making it a better target for whoever is running the program
32:38Do we have confirmation that Cain actually possesses this advanced technology?
32:42Well, we've had our doubts as well
32:45But it is Cain Ashby
32:47And look what he's accomplished in six short years
32:49That kind of money can buy or create just about anything
32:53See, you think this is an incredible threat?
32:55I think we need to take it seriously, yes
32:57If it's real
32:58And if he unleashes it on Jabot's system
33:01It could cripple Jabot so badly
33:04That by the time we realized it
33:06It'd be too late to fight back
33:07So we need to strike first
33:09And defend your bow at all costs
33:11That is Billy's stance as well
33:13So we are together
33:14But it has to be planned carefully
33:16Quietly, strategically
33:18No room for error
33:19And yes, that means containing my brother
33:22And Billy's such a hothead
33:24You're worried that he'll let his anger get the best of him
33:28And will provoke Cain
33:30Yeah, which is idiotic
33:31You don't piss off the guy holding the weapon
33:34It's so good to hear your voice
33:41I can't wait to hug you in person
33:44And let's make it soon, okay?
33:46We love you, darling
33:48And give our love to Trey
33:49That was the best possible surprise
33:53Yes, it just feels like forever since we've spoken to him
33:57Yeah, life happens
33:59I get busy
34:00I know
34:01But I miss the days when he used to call us all the time
34:04With some, like, random question
34:06Remember that?
34:07It was like his dial-a-friend lifeline
34:09I remember once he asked me what to do if his toilet was running
34:13Right, and you told him to go run and catch it
34:16Of course, what the hell do I know about fixing toilets?
34:20So did you plan that?
34:23Did you plan him calling as, like, the perfect gift for our romantic evening?
34:28Well, would it be awful if I took credit if I didn't?
34:32Yes, because you've given a vow of honesty
34:35Better than a vow of celibacy
34:38Yeah, no, you did not plan that
34:41Because I saw the look of relief on your face
34:44But it wasn't who you were expecting
34:47You know, you're
34:50You're tense
34:51You're stressed
34:53And I have not seen that since you have worked for Victor
34:58And that's why I know you're hiding something from me
35:01Look, I know you love me
35:05But I need you to trust me enough to tell me the truth
35:09Now, last chance
35:12Be honest with me
35:16Kane Ashby is attempting to destroy Genoa City as we know it
35:24And I might be the only person who can stop him
35:28I hope you don't think I'm being too hard on Billy
35:34I know he and I have had our differences in the past
35:37But I swear
35:38This spot is fine
35:39Your read is perfect
35:40What's so amusing?
35:44I'm just enjoying not being the target of your judgment for the moment
35:50I think I can thank Billy for taking some of the heat
35:53Don't get too cocky
35:54There's plenty of heat left if you ever mix it up with Audra in public
35:57Just stop while I was ahead
35:59Yes, but your father and I both understand that the reason you lashed out is because
36:04Underneath it all, there's probably a lot of heartache about Claire
36:09How about we get back to how to handle Billy?
36:12Okay, well
36:13I hope that Billy has finally seen the light and he's fully on the family's side again
36:19But I still think that he should not be the one to lead the charge against someone as dangerous as Kane
36:25As much as I love my brother, I don't know who is the bigger wild card
36:29Billy or Ashby
36:31That's not scary at all
36:32Which is why we need to find a way to rein Billy in
36:36Before this whole thing blows wide open and we all pay the price
36:40Everything has changed
36:46I can explain, Sally
36:48Yeah, your war on Kane
36:51Weren't you just his best friend this morning?
36:56Well, I saw the man for what he is
36:58He's a liar
37:00He's predatory and he's coming after everybody in this town and he needs to be stopped
37:04And you're the man to do that?
37:06Yes
37:07Billy, you're just trading one obsession for another
37:10I'm obsessed, this is a mission
37:11To protect my family, to protect my friends so no one else gets hurt
37:16I don't want anyone else to get hurt, okay?
37:19But I do have one question
37:21How does going up against Kane get us back on track?
37:27Disabling Kane, that's the key
37:28He's the reason things fell apart between us
37:32No
37:33Billy
37:34You're the reason that things fell apart
37:38Do you still not see that?
37:41You watched me put everything I had into Abbott Communications
37:46Into the launch, into building that future
37:49And then you sacrificed it all in a nanosecond
37:52When you thought that you could get your hands on Chancellor
37:53Yes, I am to blame as well, Sally
37:57Say that like you mean it
38:01I mean it, Sally
38:03You're right, all I could see was Chancellor
38:07And I should have put you first
38:08And I regret that
38:09But trust me when I say I can rectify things
38:12Because there is light at the end of the tunnel
38:15Let me take you to it
38:18Let me take you to it
38:18Let me take you to it
38:19Let me take you to it
