Transcript
00:00of course we're excited my brother Jack has redirected all his resources into Chabot
00:08which means Abbott Communications has all the funding it needs to take off
00:13Newman Media are they still in business no we're not worried about the competition especially
00:21those muckrakers look at the end of the day I believe in our team we have fantastic people
00:29and our co-ceo Sally Spector is a star and the sky's the limit yes no no no I'm not going to do that
00:39I'm not going to tell you who's on the team but we are hiring the best of the best you can quote me on
00:43that ultimately I think our product is fantastic we're young we're ready to do it and you can quote
00:51me on that too all right I'll talk to you soon anytime thanks
00:59hi hi I just spent the last half hour singing your praises about how you're going to make
01:04Abbott Communications the toast of the town and the gold standard well that's good uh-oh
01:10what's wrong I just spoke with Jill about bringing Audra on board let me guess she doesn't like the idea
01:19just as you predicted I'm sorry I mean I pitched my heart out to her she wasn't even hearing any of it
01:27she just kept saying and I'm quoting her directly that Audra's past precludes her from being a part of
01:31our future yeah that's Jill speak for hard no
01:35Audra relax do not tell me to relax I mean what the hell were you thinking spilling your gut sick
01:45Claire about her past in LA you're making a bigger deal out of this than it was no I get to decide if
01:50this is a big deal or not and it is a big deal to me you know if you wanted to impress little miss
01:54sunshine why didn't you book one of those corny old-fashioned Hollywood tours that parks a stupid
01:59bus in front of those houses where celebrities don't live anymore I guess they're all booked
02:04you're not funny Holden you haven't been funny for a very long time okay I'm sorry I upset you
02:10but why did you do it it was so unnecessary why bring Claire into something we agreed was off limits
02:17it kind of just happened what there was a what a lull in the conversation which wouldn't surprise me at
02:23all with her so what you suddenly got the urge to take a trip down bad memory lane since she's
02:28been she's been impressing me forever about our history okay so then we went to the shadow room
02:33with you went where we went to the shadow room with Mitch and okay I know what the shadow room
02:41was holden right so of course topic of our past came up again yeah I just I can't believe you took
02:51her there given our history with that place and those people what is wrong with you do you have a death
02:59wish or something
03:06you
03:08you
03:10you
03:12you
03:18you
03:20you
03:22you
03:24you
03:25you
03:26you
03:27I appreciate you letting me know I'll send word of the tech team so they can do whatever
03:43they can
03:50thanks
03:51that sounds like bad news
03:52you
03:54really gonna sit there and pretend like you don't know what just happened
03:57I have no idea what you're talking about
04:00you have my AI software you just launched it against me and my company you're gonna deny it
04:06like
04:08you
04:09i
04:11there's you go
04:13thank you
04:15you
04:16you
04:17you
04:19know it's not fair
04:21jill doesn't even know audra
04:23she knows enough to know that she's bad news
04:25and she's not the only one
04:27okay so
04:29She knows enough to know that she's bad news.
04:32And she's not the only one.
04:33Okay, so?
04:35Ever heard of second chances?
04:36I think Jill used all her second chances on me.
04:40Sorry about that.
04:42Look, I know that Audra's a friend of yours.
04:44Yes, a friend who just happens to be very highly and uniquely qualified
04:48in exactly what we're trying to accomplish.
04:50That's fine, but this is Jill's final verdict.
04:53And, you know, her word matters.
04:59You know, Jill didn't exactly say that I couldn't hire Audra.
05:07What does that mean?
05:08Well, she just strongly advised against it,
05:10and that ultimately she said it was going to be my decision.
05:12Yeah, that's the same as no.
05:14I speak and understand Jill, okay?
05:18What she's saying is that it's your neck on the line,
05:20and if it doesn't go good, it's your head.
05:23Well, I'm still going to fight for Audra.
05:26She changed her mind about you, didn't she?
05:27I think it's very different.
05:30How?
05:31Because when you convinced Jill to come on board,
05:34knowing that I was still a part of the team,
05:36she probably said yes to the guilt, not because of my ability.
05:39Mm-mm.
05:40You're wrong.
05:42I saw her face when I pitched the idea of you and me running the company together.
05:45Her eyes lit up.
05:46That was not guilt.
05:47That was excitement for all the possibilities.
05:50If I could do it with you, I could do it with Audra.
05:52Sally, are you sure that Audra's the hill you die on?
05:55I believe in her.
05:56Okay.
05:58Look, just for argument's sake, let's say that, you know,
06:02Audra is the rock star because nobody's doubting her talent,
06:05but she has a long track record of being a very loose cannon.
06:08You want to risk that,
06:10hoping that she stays on the straight and narrow,
06:12because if she doesn't,
06:14and she reverts to her old ways, that's it.
06:17Abbey Communications is no more.
06:19Jill pulls the funding.
06:20So, you got a question.
06:24Is Audra really worth it?
06:26Worth your future?
06:29Worth our future?
06:30I cannot believe you took Claire to the shadow room.
06:36It's a nightclub.
06:38That's what people do in L.A.
06:39They go to clubs.
06:40But why did it have to be that one?
06:42I mean, there are hundreds of other clubs in L.A., Holden.
06:46So, what was the problem?
06:48Huh?
06:48Were you afraid that you weren't going to get past the velvet rope
06:51and your stupid little girlfriend was going to realize
06:53you're not as cool as you pretend to be?
06:55First off, Claire is not my girlfriend.
06:57Let's get...
06:57Okay, that is not the point.
06:59I don't care who she is to you or what you did.
07:02Why did you have to take her to that place?
07:05The place that could bury us, bury me particularly.
07:08Huh?
07:09So, so, what was the angle?
07:13To just entertain crazy Claire with some dirt about me
07:16that she could use down the road?
07:19You're wrong on all counts.
07:21I don't know, Holden.
07:23This fits your M.O.
07:26To try to impress vulnerable women.
07:29Hmm, yeah.
07:31With a little dirt and a little scandal
07:33to get them all hot and bothered.
07:35That's your twisted idea of foreplay.
07:39And I bet it worked.
07:41I bet Claire got all excited
07:44about you revealing information.
07:46Our corruption.
07:48That she just couldn't wait to take you back to her room
07:50and just show you her appreciation.
07:54Did I call it, Holden?
07:57Is that how it went down?
08:00I have no idea what the hell you're talking about.
08:03I know it was you, Victor.
08:06Is that it, Ronnie?
08:07The very doomsday machine you were intending to use
08:12against other companies.
08:14It's been used against you.
08:17Is that mortifying?
08:18I would be if I were you.
08:20How did you do it?
08:23Hmm?
08:23Phyllis?
08:24Phyllis.
08:26Anytime anything goes wrong with some damn computer,
08:30everyone points to Phyllis.
08:31That's how it crossed the bear.
08:32You know I'm going to find out.
08:35I bet you will.
08:38And quite frankly, I don't give a damn.
08:42So, let me get this straight.
08:45You didn't have any kind of protection in place
08:48in case this kind of thing happened?
08:50That's not really the point here, Adam.
08:52No, the point is you're accusing my father of something
08:54in which you have zero proof.
08:56Yeah, kind of like the lies you put on your media platform
08:58about me and my father.
09:00Kane, those weren't lies.
09:03God, we're going to have a field day
09:05with this boneheaded play.
09:08Aristotle Dumas is undone
09:10by his own Frankenstein monster.
09:12I mean, that sings.
09:13Let's not be too hard on him, okay?
09:16He's just reacting the way we would
09:19if this had happened to us.
09:22That's what he intended to do, right?
09:24To destroy our company, Sarah?
09:28You're not going to get away with this.
09:31Well, whoever gets a hold of this
09:32doomsday machine already has.
09:37You want to take me on?
09:41Good luck to you.
09:43Now, if I were you,
09:44I wouldn't waste any more time
09:45talking about this.
09:46Because you have a business to save.
09:50Right?
10:07Is that true?
10:09Did you really
10:10unleash Kane's creation against him?
10:16You know,
10:19there was a time
10:21when Audra was the only person
10:23who would have a cup of coffee
10:26with me in this town.
10:28My reputation was not as stellar
10:29as it is now.
10:31I know a little bit about that myself.
10:33Okay, then you should understand
10:35why I want to help her
10:36when she's down.
10:38I mean,
10:39come on, Billy.
10:40She's lost her business,
10:42she's lost her relationship,
10:43and she's running out of money.
10:44The girl deserves a break.
10:47Usually,
10:48I would never argue
10:48that kind of opportunity
10:51to give to someone,
10:52but look,
10:54Sally,
10:55it's a big bet to make on someone
10:57because if it doesn't go well,
10:58you lose it all.
11:01Audra needs
11:02this opportunity,
11:04so I really don't think
11:05she would do anything
11:05to jeopardize it.
11:06Maybe not now.
11:08But what if she gets
11:09a little too comfortable?
11:10Look, okay,
11:10I know
11:11Audra's faults,
11:12Billy.
11:13You and Jill don't need
11:14to make a list for me.
11:16But I also know
11:17that she will work
11:18like a demon
11:19and she will have my back,
11:20and that is very
11:21important to me.
11:24Because I didn't.
11:27That's not what I'm saying.
11:28You don't have to say it.
11:31I screwed up.
11:33I really messed up
11:34when I went down
11:35the Chancellor rabbit hole.
11:36Okay, and I didn't...
11:38I didn't give you
11:40the loyalty
11:41or
11:42the support
11:43that you deserved,
11:44and I still feel
11:45bad about that.
11:47Okay, Billy,
11:48just stop.
11:49I've already forgiven
11:50you for that.
11:51I guess I haven't
11:52forgiven myself for it.
11:55And maybe that's
11:55what this is about.
11:56Maybe I'm being
11:57too hard on Audra,
11:58but I just...
11:59I don't want to see
12:01you get burnt again,
12:02Sally.
12:02Well, I think Audra
12:06is a benefit,
12:07not a liability.
12:10Especially when it comes
12:11to taking on
12:12Newman Media.
12:13She is a fighter,
12:14just like me,
12:14and she is not afraid
12:15to get her hands dirty
12:16when the other side
12:17plays rough.
12:20Okay.
12:22Look,
12:24it's your call,
12:25right?
12:25As your junior partner,
12:27I'm here to give you
12:28advice based on
12:29my experience.
12:30But you know
12:30what you need to do.
12:31You need to really
12:32look at this.
12:33You need to weigh
12:34the pros and the cons.
12:37I trust you, Sally.
12:39You'll make the right call.
12:45Audra,
12:45would you please
12:46calm down?
12:47Stop telling me
12:47how to feel.
12:48You know,
12:48this was so stupid,
12:50old and stupid.
12:50I don't want to fight you.
12:52No, you just want
12:52to ruin my life.
12:54If that were true,
12:54then why would I be
12:55telling you Claire
12:56knows what she knows?
12:57I don't understand
12:58why she had to know
12:59anything at all.
13:00She already thinks
13:00something suspicious.
13:01went down
13:02between you and me
13:03in the past.
13:04Okay,
13:04the closer we got,
13:05the more she wanted
13:06to find out.
13:07So what?
13:09You tell her
13:10that it's none
13:10of her business.
13:11I already tried that.
13:12Oh, yeah,
13:12I'm sure you did.
13:13Well, it's not so easy
13:14when Kyle's around
13:15asking questions.
13:16And then, of course,
13:17Sienna piping in
13:17with her two cents.
13:19Listen,
13:20Claire was not
13:21going to let this go.
13:22Oh, so you know
13:23what you should have
13:23done next, Holden?
13:24What's that?
13:25Yeah, you should have
13:26told her to kick rocks
13:27and go back
13:27to fairytale land
13:28with Kyle.
13:29Oh, but of course,
13:30that means you wouldn't
13:31have gotten
13:31what you wanted.
13:33Your little conquest
13:33would have been interrupted.
13:35All right, now,
13:36if I were to do that,
13:37who's to say
13:38that she would have
13:38stopped trying
13:39to find out anyway,
13:40which would have
13:40been even worse?
13:41I can't see how.
13:42I can't see how.
13:43Adra, I told her
13:44a very careful version
13:45of our truths.
13:47I didn't want her
13:47to imagine anything worse.
13:49You still don't get it,
13:51Holden.
13:52You just gave that woman
13:53who hates me
13:54with a passion
13:55something she could
13:55try to use
13:56to sabotage my life.
13:57And there is absolutely
13:59no doubt in my mind
14:00she's going to try
14:00to do exactly that.
14:05Yeah, no, I don't care
14:06how many reinforcements
14:07you have to bring in.
14:08All right, now that
14:09the program is inside
14:10our system,
14:10there has to be a way
14:11to activate the kill switch.
14:14So, yeah,
14:14the more eyes on it,
14:15the better.
14:17What?
14:19Yeah, of course
14:20this is critical.
14:21All right,
14:21if we don't stop
14:21the bleeding,
14:22my company's
14:22going to go down.
14:25Keep me posted.
14:28That's funny
14:28running into you here.
14:29Your timing is impeccable.
14:31What does that mean?
14:34Never mind.
14:36Doesn't matter.
14:39Why are you
14:39so worked up?
14:42You know,
14:42it turns out that
14:43whoever stole my AI program
14:44just turned it
14:45against me and my company,
14:46so my company's collapsing
14:48from the inside
14:49as we speak.
14:51I mean,
14:54that has to be Victor.
14:55You know that, right?
14:57Yeah.
14:58And his accomplices.
15:00How do we stop it?
15:03I don't know.
15:04You know,
15:04we devised the kill switch,
15:05but we haven't been able
15:06to activate it.
15:07Okay, well,
15:09what if we can't activate it?
15:12I don't know.
15:13I guess it depends on
15:14what Victor's tech team
15:15ordered it to do.
15:17My guess would be
15:18full destruct mod.
15:20It's only a matter of time
15:21before my company
15:22is eventually destroyed.
15:23I'm sorry.
15:28Easy come,
15:29easy go,
15:30as they say.
15:32I mean,
15:33it's not easy.
15:35And it's not too late
15:37for us to fix this.
15:38We can fix this.
15:39Yeah,
15:40the odds aren't looking good.
15:43Maybe it's karma.
15:46Maybe this is the price
15:47the universe decided
15:48I have to pay
15:48for deceiving Lily
15:49and my children.
15:50it's a hell of a price,
15:52ain't it?
15:55Maybe I deserve it.
15:59Well,
16:00I have to hand it to you.
16:02I never saw this coming.
16:05You going after Kane first
16:08instead of hitting Jabot.
16:11Yeah, well,
16:14he did neither.
16:17I think it was
16:18downright brilliant.
16:20It was a perfect move.
16:22Kane thought he could play
16:23in the big leagues with you.
16:24Well,
16:25here's your answer.
16:27Yeah.
16:30You know,
16:31God,
16:31I got doesn't even realize
16:32what we'll hit him.
16:34This company
16:35will be in total disarray.
16:38He'll be financially decimated.
16:40You run to the next
16:41damn bankruptcy court
16:42to salvage
16:43whatever's left.
16:44In the meantime,
16:46we'll move in
16:47and we will take
16:48what we want
16:48for pennies on the dollar.
16:49Yeah.
16:50It's a master stroke pop,
16:52really.
16:53He was one of your finest.
16:55Thanks, son.
16:56You know,
16:59it was satisfying
17:00to watch his face
17:01when he realized
17:02that everything
17:03he'll build up
17:04is from the empire
17:06again to crumble.
17:07almost as satisfying
17:20as it will be
17:21to watch
17:22Sir Carver
17:23suffer the same fate.
17:26What if
17:32what if Claire
17:33tells Nate
17:34or Amy?
17:35Why would she do that?
17:37Have you not
17:38been listening,
17:39Holden?
17:39She hates me.
17:40You know,
17:40Nate already thinks
17:41that I am horrible
17:42and this is just
17:43going to seal the deal.
17:44I mean,
17:44of course she's
17:45going to tell Kyle,
17:46but who gives a damn
17:47what he thinks?
17:49Oh, my God,
17:50but if this gets
17:50back to Sally
17:52and Billy,
17:53it could ruin me.
17:55What are you talking about?
17:56My job at
17:56Abbott Communications,
17:58a job I haven't even
17:58been officially
18:00hired for yet.
18:02But if this gets out,
18:04I mean,
18:04that's it.
18:05I mean,
18:05what am I going to do then?
18:06Okay, Audra,
18:07let's take a step back,
18:08okay?
18:09I told Claire
18:10a version of our story,
18:12but I never mentioned
18:13his name at all.
18:15And that's supposed
18:15to make it okay?
18:16It nips it in the bud.
18:17Hopefully it satisfies Claire
18:18so she won't keep looking.
18:21That's right.
18:23Because then she'd find out
18:24you were a lot more involved
18:25than you probably
18:26told her you were.
18:27I told her my part.
18:28Oh.
18:30You told her that
18:31you took the cash
18:31I gave you
18:32to keep your mouth shut?
18:35Maybe I should demand
18:36a refund.
18:37It's very funny.
18:38I'm serious.
18:40What'd you do
18:41with that money anyway,
18:42huh?
18:43I bet you didn't share
18:44that little detail
18:45with Claire
18:45because you were too busy
18:46throwing me under the bus.
18:47I told her what I told her,
18:49okay, Audra?
18:51So you can be pissed,
18:52you can be paranoid,
18:53you can be whatever you want.
18:54I do not care.
18:56But the reason I told her
18:57is because I didn't want Claire
18:59to take a deeper dive
19:00into what really happened.
19:02Because that is a story
19:04that neither of us
19:05wants to get out.
19:11Is everything okay here?
19:12Hi.
19:23Hi.
19:24How did your meeting
19:24with Victor go?
19:26I ordered you a drink.
19:28Thought you might need it.
19:32Um, it was a lot to unpack
19:34and I'm gonna fill you in later,
19:35but I just got off the phone
19:37with a reporter
19:38that filled me in
19:40on the Abbott Communications launch.
19:42Do they have a date?
19:44Uh, not officially,
19:45but Billy, as usual,
19:47is running his mouth
19:48on how great
19:49and wonderful it's gonna be
19:51and blah, blah, blah,
19:53and how he's gonna bury
19:54Newman media.
19:55He won't.
19:57No, I know.
19:58You know that.
20:00But we have to be on guard
20:01against whatever BS
20:03Billy throws out there
20:04because he's not gonna be
20:05kind and gentle.
20:07Adam, I know conflict
20:08is inevitable.
20:09I accept that.
20:10We are competitors.
20:11I just don't want things
20:12to end up in the gutter.
20:14Well, that's up to Billy.
20:16Not just Billy.
20:19I mean, Victor plays a part
20:20in this as well.
20:23I think I might be able
20:24to get him to back off on that.
20:25Really?
20:28Sure.
20:29I mean, we could use
20:30Billy's canceled
20:31at the last-minute launch party
20:33and paint Abbott Communications
20:34as an inferior product
20:36doomed to fail.
20:38But I think the smarter move
20:41is to just leave it alone
20:42and wait to see
20:43what Billy's up to.
20:45And Victor signed off on this?
20:48I think he will.
20:49Which means he has it.
20:52Chosen.
20:53Victor has bigger fish
20:55to fry at the moment
20:56and he's already got
20:58one of them on the grill.
21:00Who?
21:02Kane.
21:05Dad, um,
21:07released the AI software
21:08into Arabesque's operating system.
21:10Oh, my gosh.
21:12And it's working?
21:13By the end of the week,
21:16Kane could be out of business.
21:19Why aren't you happier about that?
21:24What's so funny?
21:26Oh, just, you know,
21:29life.
21:31Me.
21:34God.
21:35He has a funny way of laughing
21:36at those who make plans.
21:38And I had a thought about
21:39what my father would say
21:40to me right now.
21:42Well, he wouldn't be laughing,
21:44that's for sure.
21:44I don't know about that.
21:45He has a fair share
21:47of wins and losses
21:47in his day.
21:48Well, not a loss this big.
21:50You know, but, but,
21:52I mean, it's not over.
21:54It's not lost yet.
21:56Such an optimist, Phyllis.
21:58Well, when I have something
21:59to be optimistic about.
22:01Well, you know,
22:02this turn of events
22:03leaves you out in the cold, too.
22:06Unless.
22:09Unless.
22:10Tell me again.
22:11Phyllis said you had nothing
22:12to do with stealing
22:13my AI program.
22:14I don't want you
22:16to make me believe it.
22:18I really,
22:19really want to believe it.
22:22Is it just me
22:23or you two
22:23always together lately?
22:25It's just you, Billy.
22:27Is it really?
22:29You seem a little panicked.
22:30Are you trying to
22:31figure out
22:32how to get back
22:32that stolen AI software?
22:34If it was actually stolen?
22:37It's just you
22:38in a nutshell,
22:39isn't it?
22:39A day late
22:40and a dollar short.
22:41Oh, well, please, Cain.
22:43Enlighten my
22:44uninformed self.
22:45Yeah, well,
22:46I don't have time
22:46for your conspiracy theories.
22:48I have fires to put out.
22:55I wonder what kind of fires
22:56those could be.
22:57What are your thoughts, Phyllis?
23:05There's no problem
23:06at all, Sally.
23:07Audra and I
23:07were just reminiscing
23:09about old times.
23:13Oh, well,
23:14those old times
23:15seemed pretty intense
23:16from where I'm standing.
23:17Well, you know how it is.
23:20Sometimes you look back
23:21on things that used
23:22to be important
23:23in life changing
23:23and it turns out
23:24they're not worth
23:25remembering at all.
23:27Okay, well,
23:28I'm really glad
23:29I ran into you
23:29because there's something
23:30I have to talk to you about.
23:31You know,
23:31it seems like
23:32I've lost my appetite, Sally.
23:35It's great to see you.
23:37Audra,
23:38it's always a pleasure.
23:43Uh, do I even have to ask?
23:46Please don't.
23:47Okay, well,
23:47it looks like steam
23:48was coming out of your head.
23:50Yeah, well,
23:50Holden has a rare gift
23:51of always putting me
23:52in a bad mood
23:53whenever I run into him.
23:54Okay, well,
23:55um, I have an idea.
23:56Maybe don't engage
23:57when you run into him
23:58or if he reaches out to you,
23:59just have something
24:00better to do.
24:01Great advice.
24:03Thanks.
24:05So, uh,
24:06what kind of trouble
24:08am I in?
24:10Who said anything
24:10about trouble?
24:12Well, it's been my experience
24:13that when someone says
24:14we need to talk,
24:16it usually doesn't bode well
24:17for the person
24:18at the other end
24:19of the conversation.
24:23I'm not shedding
24:24any tears for Kane,
24:26if that's what you're thinking.
24:27No, that's not
24:28what I'm thinking.
24:29So, go ahead.
24:33I mean,
24:34as far as I'm concerned,
24:35the guy already had it coming
24:36for tricking the family
24:38into going to Nice
24:39and then holding them hostage.
24:41Where three people died,
24:43don't forget that.
24:44So, I haven't forgotten.
24:48You know,
24:48and then the bastard comes,
24:50sets up shop,
24:51holds the entire town hostage
24:53with these AI
24:54doomsday threats.
24:56Listen,
24:56nobody at this table
24:57feels sorry for Kane.
25:00Trust me.
25:02Yeah.
25:02But,
25:04you're clearly upset
25:05or else we'd be
25:06ordering champagne
25:07and we're not.
25:10it's my father's
25:12next target
25:13that bothers me.
25:16Jabot.
25:17Mm-hmm.
25:19Along with the
25:20complete destruction
25:21of Jack Abbott.
25:23Well,
25:24you can't be surprised
25:25Victor would want
25:25to go there.
25:27I'm not.
25:28Plus,
25:29it's part of Phyllis' deal,
25:30Jabot for the AI program.
25:33But,
25:33Victor does not always
25:34hold up his end
25:35of the deal.
25:36I just,
25:37I wish
25:38for once
25:39he could just
25:41be satisfied
25:42in winning.
25:44I mean,
25:45the guy has everything
25:46in his life
25:47that he could ever
25:47want or dream of
25:48and it's never enough.
25:52It's a cautionary tale.
25:55For me?
25:56No,
25:56for everybody.
25:59People that can
26:00never be satisfied
26:00can never truly be happy.
26:03They just
26:03keep
26:05wanting
26:06and wanting
26:07and the need
26:08is insatiable
26:09and I feel
26:10sorry for him.
26:11Well,
26:11I feel
26:12a hell of a lot
26:13sorrier for Jack.
26:18What does Victor
26:19want you to do?
26:23He wants me
26:24to create
26:25some kind of
26:25diversion
26:26for the Abbott's
26:27so they will
26:28be distracted
26:29when he finally
26:31wants to drop
26:31the hammer
26:32on them.
26:34When is that
26:34supposed to happen?
26:35the clock's
26:38already ticking.
26:43Michael,
26:43Victor,
26:44what have you
26:45learned about
26:46Noah's Associates
26:47in Los Angeles?
26:49And by the way,
26:50you and I
26:50were discussing
26:51business before.
26:52Have you made up
26:53your mind?
26:54I need your counsel.
26:56Things are heating up
26:57around here,
26:58okay?
26:59But don't wait
27:00too long
27:00because
27:01things are becoming
27:03rather urgent.
27:05Bye.
27:09As a matter of fact,
27:10yeah,
27:11I do know the fires
27:12that Kane is putting
27:12out right now.
27:14What are they?
27:15Like,
27:16I'm going to tell you.
27:17You had a chance
27:18to be part of our
27:19winning team
27:20and you blew it.
27:21Come on,
27:24winning team?
27:25There's not a whole
27:26lot of winning
27:27happening with you,
27:27Leigh.
27:28Okay.
27:28Like,
27:29you didn't know
27:29anything about
27:30winning,
27:30Billy.
27:31I do know
27:31quite a bit.
27:33I noticed your
27:33partner seemed
27:35pretty upset
27:36about something.
27:36I'm thinking
27:37maybe things
27:38aren't going
27:39according to plan.
27:39See,
27:40that's the problem.
27:41You're thinking.
27:42And you're doing
27:42everything you can
27:43to avoid the subject,
27:44which means that
27:45you're in trouble.
27:45Okay.
27:46Um,
27:47we're fine.
27:49You should put
27:50less emphasis
27:51on me and Kane
27:52and more emphasis
27:53on, uh,
27:54what Victor's
27:55going to do next.
27:56I'm not worried
27:57about Victor.
27:58You're not.
27:59Oh my goodness.
28:00Well,
28:00you should be
28:01because it's only
28:02a matter of time
28:02before he goes
28:03after Jabot
28:04and Abbott Communications.
28:06I appreciate
28:07your concern,
28:07but both companies
28:08will be just fine.
28:09We'll be safe.
28:10Oh.
28:11Oh.
28:12Okay.
28:13Because you say so?
28:15No,
28:15because we were
28:16alerted
28:17and we took
28:18precautions.
28:19Um,
28:19let me tell you
28:20something.
28:21Once that software
28:22gets in your system,
28:24there's nothing
28:25you're going to be
28:26able to do
28:26to stop it.
28:28We have tools.
28:30Okay.
28:30For your sake,
28:31I hope that's true.
28:33You have a good day.
28:35And I really hope
28:36that whatever
28:37your partner's
28:38freaking out about,
28:39it gets solved.
28:41But it didn't look good.
28:42And good luck,
28:48Phyllis.
28:48So, I had a conversation
29:01with the person
29:04who is investing
29:05in Abbott Communications.
29:07Oh, your
29:08anonymous investor?
29:10Yeah.
29:11They
29:13were concerned
29:15about your history.
29:18How concerned
29:19are we talking about?
29:22They strongly advised
29:23me not to hire you.
29:26I mean, that's it.
29:27You know,
29:27I am out of a job
29:28before I even get started.
29:29No, no, no.
29:30Hey, take a breath, okay?
29:31Because this is not over.
29:32I mean,
29:33it sure sounds
29:33that way to me, Sally.
29:35Audra,
29:35I'm still going to fight
29:36for you.
29:38Sally...
29:38No, hey, look.
29:39I'm not giving up on you
29:40or our friendship, okay?
29:43It's going to work.
29:44But how?
29:46Look, I love
29:46that you're sticking up
29:48for me, I do.
29:49But we both know
29:50that whoever signs
29:51the checks
29:51calls the shots.
29:52It's just the way it works.
29:53Okay.
29:54Well, this particular person
29:55bought into my vision
29:57and my leadership
29:58100%,
29:59and that includes me
30:00putting together
30:00the team that I want.
30:02It just might take
30:03a little longer
30:03than we thought.
30:06How much more time?
30:09Well,
30:09once Billy and I
30:11get Avid Communications
30:11up and running successfully,
30:13then I am sure
30:14I can convince the backer
30:15to bring you on.
30:17So,
30:18more waiting.
30:20I'm sorry.
30:22Yeah.
30:23There's going to be
30:24more waiting,
30:24but it is going to happen,
30:25okay?
30:26Because our backer
30:28never gave me
30:28a direct order
30:30not to hire you.
30:31So,
30:32I'm going to use that
30:33as a little wiggle room
30:34so that we can both
30:35get what we want.
30:40I hate
30:41that Victor
30:42does this to you.
30:44He hands you
30:44his dirty work
30:45so he can keep
30:46his hands clean.
30:48Well, I mean,
30:49it's part of what
30:50I signed on for.
30:51It shouldn't be.
30:52And it's not even
30:53necessary.
30:54I know.
30:55It's one thing
30:56to go after Kane
30:57when he was a threat
30:57to everyone,
30:58but he's been neutralized.
31:00Everything's fine.
31:00There are no more threats
31:02except for Victor
31:04planning an unprovoked
31:05attack on Jabot
31:06to satisfy
31:07some personal vendetta.
31:09Well,
31:10it's a vendetta
31:11that has been going on
31:11for decades.
31:13It doesn't make it right.
31:16Victor Newman
31:17wants what he wants
31:18and Jack Abbott
31:19in his trophy room
31:21is right at the top
31:22of his list.
31:23But Adam,
31:24could you do that
31:26to Jack?
31:28Joseph,
31:28it kills me.
31:31Jack has not only
31:33been a friend to me,
31:34one of the few
31:35that I've had.
31:38I mean,
31:38you know,
31:38he was a father
31:39for you to me
31:40when I came to town,
31:41when everybody else
31:43in this town
31:44was turning their back
31:45on me,
31:46including my own family.
31:49Jack,
31:50Jack somehow believed
31:53that there was more
31:54to me than
31:54the anger
31:56and the hurt
31:56that I was carrying around
31:57and I was taking it
31:59out on everybody else.
32:02That means a lot
32:03to me.
32:04It still means
32:05a lot to me.
32:07And he was right
32:08about you,
32:09after all.
32:12And this is what
32:13makes this so much
32:14harder.
32:16It's one thing
32:17to go after Billy,
32:18not only because
32:19of the personal history,
32:20but he set himself up
32:21as a direct competitor
32:22in Newman Media.
32:23but Jack,
32:25I don't know.
32:29You can always
32:30tell, Victor.
32:31No.
32:33He would see that
32:34as a betrayal.
32:34He would see that
32:35as me choosing
32:36Jack over here.
32:37Even though he's
32:38forcing you
32:39into this position?
32:40It just,
32:40it wouldn't make
32:41a difference,
32:41Chelsea.
32:43Victor Newman,
32:44when he gives an order,
32:45he expects it
32:46to be obeyed.
32:47All those who don't
32:49are banished
32:50from the kingdom.
32:52Well, now,
32:53this is a nice surprise.
32:56Yes, I,
32:56I realize that
32:57our arrangement
32:58does not entitle me
32:59to drop by,
32:59so don't worry.
33:00Did you hear about Noah?
33:01I did.
33:02Isn't that something?
33:03Yes.
33:03Yes, it's great.
33:05It's really...
33:06I was so worried
33:07about that.
33:09This could have
33:09really gone awry.
33:10Yes, it could have.
33:11It could have.
33:12I'm so grateful.
33:14I've slept
33:15in two or three nights.
33:16Yeah.
33:17I'm sure you
33:18and your family
33:18are relieved.
33:20I can't begin
33:20to tell you.
33:21So what brings you by?
33:24I just ran into Billy.
33:27Billy Abbott?
33:28Uh-huh.
33:30What nonsense
33:31did he have to tell you
33:32this time?
33:34Uh, well,
33:35he said that he and Jack
33:36have certain precautions
33:37set up to weather
33:38any kind of attack.
33:41You and I know
33:42that's not true, right?
33:44Yeah.
33:45Yeah.
33:45We do.
33:46Well, so let him
33:47think that, you know.
33:48makes it so much easier
33:51to go in for the kill.
33:54Do you have anything
33:55set up on that front?
33:57What do you want to know?
34:02What do you mean?
34:04Fellas,
34:06there's a big denouement
34:07you're talking to.
34:09You and I have known
34:09each other for a long time.
34:13Stop playing games.
34:14What is it you want to know?
34:18Are you setting up
34:19an attack on Kane's company
34:20because that was an ordeal?
34:22Thank you, Sally.
34:32You know,
34:32not a lot of people
34:33have my back these days.
34:35Well, you've been there
34:36for me
34:36more than once
34:38and that's what friends do.
34:42Well, you know,
34:42I, um,
34:44I will keep my distance
34:45from Abbott Communications.
34:47I don't want to become
34:48an issue with your backer.
34:49Well, I appreciate that.
34:52But when the time comes,
34:54I'll be ready to jump right in
34:55and hit the ground right in.
34:56Yes, and that is exactly
34:57why I need you on my team
34:58because I know
34:59that you are going to do that.
35:00I know that I can count on you.
35:04It means a lot, Sally.
35:05Like, I promise
35:06I won't let you down.
35:08It never entered my mind
35:09that you would.
35:11Yeah, so,
35:12we just got to get
35:13your money person
35:14to feel the same way about me.
35:16Yes, and I am sure
35:17I can do that.
35:18I just need
35:19a little time
35:20and a plan.
35:22And I do
35:23have a plan.
35:26I just wish
35:27we had more time
35:28to figure this out.
35:30Is there any way
35:30we could stall
35:31Victor
35:32from going after Jack?
35:35Well,
35:35we could
35:35take a page
35:37out of Kane's playbook.
35:38We could
35:38build a giant maze
35:40in General City
35:41and we could
35:42plop Victor
35:43right in the middle of it.
35:44I actually really love
35:46that idea.
35:46I mean,
35:47it's a puzzle.
35:49He likes puzzles.
35:50It would take him
35:51a little while
35:52to find his way out.
35:53Okay.
35:54And then
35:55what do we do
35:56after that?
35:58Beats me.
36:00See,
36:01that's the problem.
36:02We've both
36:03tried to outmaneuver
36:04Victor before
36:05and we've failed
36:06miserably.
36:07Well,
36:10then maybe
36:10we should just
36:11stop trying
36:12to maneuver
36:12him at all
36:13and why don't
36:15we just
36:16tell him
36:17how we really
36:17feel.
36:20Are you being
36:20serious right now?
36:21Chelsea,
36:22you're right.
36:24If we don't
36:25want to do
36:25what Victor says,
36:26the only choice
36:27is to tell him
36:29directly.
36:30I,
36:34yeah,
36:34I agree.
36:36I just
36:36didn't think
36:37what?
36:38That I didn't
36:40have the guts?
36:40No,
36:41not that you
36:42don't have the guts.
36:42I just,
36:43I know how tricky
36:45the situation
36:45is for you.
36:46but at the end
36:50of the day,
36:51maybe it is
36:51time someone
36:52in your family
36:52stood up to
36:53Victor and told
36:54him he was
36:54wrong.
36:57Could you do
36:58that?
36:59Could you go
37:00against Victor
37:00to protect
37:01Jack?
37:05Don't we
37:06understand you?
37:08You honestly
37:09think we were
37:09partners in this?
37:10Yes.
37:15Oh,
37:15okay,
37:16of whatever
37:16we were?
37:19You know
37:20I gave you
37:20that program
37:21to go after
37:21Jabot.
37:22That was our
37:23agreement,
37:23not to go
37:24after Cain.
37:25And you will
37:26get what you
37:26asked for.
37:29Meanwhile,
37:29what the hell
37:30I do with
37:30the whole
37:30damn thing?
37:31It's my
37:31business,
37:32not yours.
37:33We are not
37:33partners in
37:34this whole
37:34project,
37:36are we?
37:36And what
37:36do you care?
37:37What happens
37:38to Cain Ashby?
37:39You screwed
37:40him over once.
37:41Shouldn't be
37:42difficult to do
37:43it again.
37:43you
37:45have to
37:48come to
37:49you.
37:49You
37:49have to
37:50come to
37:50you.
37:50You
37:51have to
37:51you.
