00:00Interesting choice, you come in here Thanksgiving night.
00:07Well, it'll probably take years for us to share turkey with stuffing and cranberry sauce on Thanksgiving,
00:14but I thought we'd work up to it tonight with this.
00:20Or maybe I was wrong?
00:24Well, we have to start somewhere.
00:27Why not tonight?
00:30I hope you know you're the one who's going to be reseeding my lawn after that flag football game.
00:42There is mud for days!
00:44Uh, yeah, well, that's, uh, that's not what I'm worried about.
00:47Okay.
00:53Uh, Mom? Dad? What's going on?
00:56I don't want you hanging out with Gio anymore.
00:58What?
00:59You gotta stay away from her.
01:03Reconnaissance complete.
01:06Everything was quiet from the street, didn't it?
01:09Yeah, but no sign of Dalton and no sign of the dogs either.
01:12Did you really have her barking?
01:14No, not necessarily.
01:16I mean, Dalton might have soundproofed the lab, so he kept the noise down.
01:20Gio, the last break-in was a disaster.
01:22We weren't even a part of that.
01:23Well, I'm just saying it landed rock on juvie, and if we get caught, it could be even worse.
01:29Are you sure that's a risk you want to take?
01:31You started without me.
01:39That is not a good sign.
01:41I'm guessing Willow went ahead with the wedding?
01:48My daughter is now Mrs. Drew Kane.
01:54This day couldn't get any worse.
01:55I wouldn't be too sure about that.
02:01Excuse me.
02:03My husband, Curtis Ashford, he was brought in for questioning.
02:07I need to see him.
02:08Yeah, he's in the interrogation room right now, but you can have a seat over there.
02:12Now, you acknowledge that you have agreed to answer questions while we wait for counsel to arrive.
02:24Because I have nothing to hide.
02:26None of the evidence ties back to Curtis.
02:29No, but as a cop, or ex-cop, Mr. Ashford would know how to stage a crime scene in order to avert suspicion.
02:36I want Drew Kane dead tonight.
02:40How you do it is your choice.
02:43Just make sure it doesn't trace back to me.
02:45Killing a U.S. congressman comes with significant risk.
02:49I'm aware.
02:52Still needs to be done.
02:53Okay.
02:54If you want to look at this like cops, let's start with the facts.
02:58Curtis had no access to the murder weapon.
03:04I'm not sure I heard you correctly.
03:07Henry Dalton is dead.
03:10I know that because I found his body in the trunk of my car just hours after winning the election.
03:18And where is Professor Dalton's body now?
03:21I don't know.
03:22But you know what happened to it.
03:24I don't think anyone will ever find Professor Dalton.
03:35I should probably warn you, but it could be a while.
03:39If that's the case, maybe I'll head out.
03:42Seems like my husband's in good hands.
03:44Now, the quartermans didn't exactly keep track of Edward's gun collection, so they have no idea when the gun went missing, and they have no idea when it was the last time someone saw it.
04:07And you're making the leap to Curtis getting his hands on this gun, how?
04:12Well, Curtis is the CEO of Aurora, and Michael is the majority shareholder.
04:16Now, Curtis could have gone to the Quartermain estate to discuss business with Michael on any number of occasions and taken the weapon then.
04:22Any number of people, including Michael Corinthos, could have had access to that gun.
04:28Yeah, but a cop planning, or ex-cop planning to commit murder, would have known to use a weapon that wouldn't cast suspicion on them.
04:35And if that ex-cop was Mr. Ashford, then using Edward Quartermain's gun would be a great way to misdirect an investigation.
04:43As I stated, I am prepared to wire you $1 million tonight to get rid of Drew Kane.
04:50You're clearly motivated to end Congressman Kane.
04:55May I ask why?
04:57He's been targeting my family most recently, my aunt Stella.
05:01I understand this particular type of filial duty all too well.
05:06Get this done in a way that does not trace back to either one of us.
05:10Make it look like you never even came back to town.
05:12Gio, it's not just the risk of arrest.
05:18If we get caught, this could trash whatever relationship you even have left with Dante.
05:22No, no, no, no. Forget Dante for a second.
05:25What if Dalton is up to something?
05:27Like what?
05:29Dalton knows you're on to him, and then suddenly an address to a secret lab shows up under your door.
05:33That's weird.
05:35Right?
05:35What if it's a setup?
05:42Okay, Ava, please, could you just stop stalling?
05:45What aren't you telling me?
05:48I told Portia that you named her as a suspect in Jewish shooting.
05:52What?
05:53Well, that's just not true.
05:54I did not name Portia as a suspect.
05:56All I did was tell someone that she didn't have an alibi, and that person told Alexis.
06:00Well, Alexis is a very capable attorney, and she is going to do whatever she has to do to get Willow out from under those charges.
06:08Portia has to protect herself.
06:10She has a lot to lose.
06:11I don't want Portia to lose anything.
06:13I'm just trying to save my daughter.
06:17Okay.
06:18Well, tell Portia that.
06:21She's on her way here right now.
06:24Ava!
06:26We are not in grade school.
06:28We have to take responsibility for our actions.
06:31So we are going to woman up here and straighten this out.
06:35And who the hell do you think you are to decide that?
06:42Well, I'm sure you saw for yourself the awful fight that I had with Dalton on social media.
06:47It was at the polls on election day.
06:50It was all over the media, social and otherwise.
06:53Yes.
06:54Yeah, I saw it.
06:55And to tell you the truth, I've never been more proud.
06:58I really thought it was going to cost me the election, but then voters surprised me.
07:05The voters made the right choice.
07:09The thing is, Dalton was very much alive in that video.
07:12Now, how did he end up in your trunk?
07:15I don't know.
07:15Okay, this is what happened.
07:19I worked a little late that night of the election, and when I was driving home, I got a flat tire.
07:26So I pulled off the road, and I got out of the car, and I went to the trunk to get the flares that you put there for me.
07:35I mean, he was just in there.
07:38He was dead.
07:40Dead?
07:40Yeah.
07:42I didn't even know what I was looking at, you know, for a minute.
07:46But then, because he was sort of under a tarp.
07:51But then I pulled it back, and I could see he'd been shot.
07:55My God, Laura, you must have been terrified.
07:57Yeah, I don't know.
07:58I think I was...
07:59I think I was in some type of a shock.
08:03I knew I had to check his pulse, so I did that.
08:05But later, I realized I had gotten his blood on me, and maybe my DNA on him.
08:12And it was all after I had gone viral on social media, threatening the man.
08:18But you didn't call the police.
08:22No, I didn't.
08:27I called Sonny.
08:31Molly and I had dinner.
08:32She mentioned that Christina was here, and that Alexis was at Drew and Willow's wedding to support Scout.
08:40That girl's going to need a lot of support.
08:42First, Sam's gone, and now Drew's keeping her from the people who loved her the most.
08:48The Davis women are doing their best to rally around her.
08:50I tell you what, I wouldn't go up against those.
08:53They are formidable.
08:57It's interesting.
08:59I've seen the shift in Molly and Christina, hasn't it?
09:02I mean, for so long they were estranged, and now they're seemingly closer than ever.
09:07Some things are harder to repair.
09:11Understood.
09:12Just, I appreciate you trusting me to defend Rocco.
09:17And on that note, our legal strategy is on hold right now.
09:21But as soon as the police locate Henry Dalton, Alexis and I are confident that it's going to work in Rocco's favor.
09:29Gio's my brother.
09:30I'm not going to just stop seeing him.
09:33Well, you are, actually, if I say so, because you're a minor.
09:36And you don't get to make choices about your freedom if you're getting arrested.
09:39But, Dad, you just said it.
09:40I got myself arrested.
09:42Gio had nothing to do with it.
09:43Okay, you know what I mean.
09:44Don't play dumb.
09:46Okay, Dante, that's not fair.
09:47How am I playing dumb?
09:48What are you...
09:49You know that Gio is a bad influence.
09:52Okay, what happened the first time you hung out with him?
09:54You got your stomach pumped, almost died.
09:56Gio wasn't in charge of you.
09:57Okay, now he gets you involved in this break in a Dalton's lab.
10:00You get beat up in juvie.
10:01You're facing criminal charges.
10:02You know, this is all bad stuff, right?
10:03You get that, right?
10:04I'm not the one who has everything all wrong.
10:07Okay, stop.
10:07I got everything wrong.
10:08You know what?
10:08I don't have anything wrong.
10:09Actually, especially not this.
10:11This all goes back to Gio.
10:12Okay, so you're not seeing him.
10:13You can't just cut my brother out of my life.
10:16Mom, you can't be okay with this.
10:22Although Tate has already been charged with Jewish cheating,
10:24why are you questioning an innocent man
10:26when the ADA is already set for trial?
10:28We're working to fortify the ADA's case.
10:30That means looking into the statements
10:32and timelines of people of interest.
10:34Now, Curtis's timeline has two gaps.
10:36The first is when he claims to be alone at the Savoy,
10:39but there's no way to verify that.
10:40Ordinarily, I wouldn't involve myself
10:44in a high-level assassination,
10:46but I have a soft spot for you, Curtis.
10:50And I enjoy being in business with you.
10:53So do we have a deal?
10:55Arrangements will be made.
10:56Tonight.
10:58Drew can't be allowed to do any more damage.
11:01It will be done in the next two hours.
11:04I know the perfect person for the job.
11:06And the second gap
11:18is between the time the alarm at the Savoy was reset
11:21and when you arrived at the Brown Dog.
11:22Now, you claim that Curtis arrived there first,
11:24but we have no idea what time he got there
11:26or what he was doing for the nearly hour beforehand.
11:28I had business I had to attend.
11:30Welcome back to the conversation, Mr. Ashford.
11:32What kind of business?
11:33Detective, give it up, okay?
11:37I realize a fishing expedition when I see one.
11:40And you?
11:43You got nothing.
11:47So Sonny's involved.
11:49I...
11:49I knew I'd been set up, Kevin.
11:53I didn't know what to do.
11:56And I knew that Sonny would.
12:00So he handled it?
12:03He did, yeah.
12:06You realize it's too late for you to come forward now.
12:10I know.
12:10That's what Sonny said, too.
12:13But he also said that he had...
12:15He assured me that he took care of the body.
12:18And...
12:19What about your car?
12:21It's clean.
12:22He cleaned it.
12:23He detailed it.
12:25And then...
12:26It was just in the garage when I woke up in the morning
12:29like nothing happened.
12:36You okay, honey?
12:44I owe you an apology.
12:48What?
12:48You don't owe me an apology before.
12:54You had to go to Sonny because I was out of town.
12:56I couldn't be here to help you.
12:59I'm sorry.
13:00No, no.
13:02No.
13:03It's not your fault.
13:05No, not at all.
13:07I called Sonny because...
13:09I didn't know what to do.
13:11And I...
13:11I knew that Sonny did.
13:16I understand that this isn't what you want to hear.
13:22But your dad and I are seeing a pattern of behavior
13:25and we want to help you stop it for your own safety.
13:28Unfortunately, Gio is the common denominator.
13:30No, Mom.
13:31I made those choices.
13:33You didn't make them for me.
13:35You're not...
13:36You're not helping your case.
13:37Why should I have to make a case
13:38to see my own brother?
13:40You're trying to do the same thing to me
13:42that Drew is trying to do to Scout.
13:44You're keeping me and Gio apart
13:45like you're keeping Danny and Scout apart.
13:47Don't argue that that is a totally different situation.
13:49No, it's not.
13:51Families are supposed to stick together,
13:53not like Dad knows anything about that.
13:59What's that supposed to mean?
14:00What gives you the right to say
14:01who gets to be my family
14:03when you walked out a mom and me twice?
14:05Hey.
14:07Hey.
14:07Come back here.
14:09Come back.
14:10Let's go.
14:11Let him go.
14:15Let him go.
14:17When Dalton was trying to leave here
14:20with Joss the other night,
14:21he was super drunk,
14:22so for all we know,
14:23he accidentally told her
14:25where the secret lab is
14:26and she's the one who slipped
14:27the address under my door.
14:28Maybe.
14:31Look, I know it's a risk,
14:32but I'm not going to let those animals
14:34suffer one more night.
14:36Okay.
14:38And neither am I.
14:41Good.
14:43First we buy leashes and collars,
14:44and then we shut Dalton down for good.
14:54I wish I was going to find out
14:55what you did one way or the other,
14:57so you may as well own up to it
14:59so we can all move on.
15:00How mature are you, Ava?
15:02How wise and insightful
15:04pushing me to own up to my actions.
15:06Isn't there something
15:07that you need to do penance for,
15:10my friend?
15:12I am your friend.
15:14And you're mine.
15:16And you and I both know
15:18friends don't come very easily.
15:20We don't have the luxury
15:21of just throwing them away.
15:23So you want to be mad at me?
15:24Go ahead and be mad at me.
15:25But you should fix this,
15:26and you ought to fix it tonight.
15:27Okay.
15:27Okay.
15:27Okay.
15:27Okay.
15:27Okay.
15:27Okay.
15:27Okay.
15:27Okay.
15:27Okay.
15:27Okay.
15:27Okay.
15:27Okay.
15:27Okay.
15:27Okay.
15:27Okay.
15:28Okay.
15:28Okay.
15:28Okay.
15:28Okay.
15:29Okay.
15:29Okay.
15:29Okay.
15:31Okay.
15:31Okay.
15:31Okay.
15:33Okay.
15:35Okay.
15:35Okay.
15:36Come on, Dante.
15:39What are you going to do?
15:40Drag him back into the house,
15:41kicking and screaming?
15:42Yeah.
15:42Yeah.
15:43I was going to do that, actually.
15:44No.
15:44No, you're not.
15:46You're going to calm down,
15:47and so is he.
15:52You really feel the way
15:53that he said
15:54that I have
15:55that I abandoned you?
16:00I didn't
16:00I thought about that
16:03in so long.
16:03when you went on
16:07that mission
16:07with the WSB
16:08and then
16:08when you left
16:10to get treatment
16:11for PTSD.
16:12Yeah, I did that
16:13to protect you.
16:14I know you did.
16:16So,
16:17answer the question.
16:18Tell me.
16:18Just, just,
16:19just tell me.
16:23Okay.
16:27Yes.
16:27In a way,
16:31it felt like
16:32you abandoned us
16:36when you went to work
16:38for the WSB.
16:39And then
16:40you came back.
16:45You were struggling
16:46so much.
16:50But you wouldn't let me help you.
16:52You wouldn't let me in.
16:52it's like
16:53it's like
16:55you were disappearing
16:56right in front of me.
16:59But I want you to know
17:00that I never
17:03said any of that
17:04to Rocco,
17:05not when he was
17:06a little boy
17:06and not ever since.
17:08I know.
17:10I know.
17:11It's not you.
17:12It's me.
17:15And however,
17:15Rocco's processed,
17:16everything that happened
17:17has led us
17:17to where we are now,
17:18which was...
17:18I'm the dad
17:22who left him
17:23and, uh,
17:25now I'm the dad
17:26who's keeping him
17:27from his brother.
17:30I've been laying off
17:31the drinking for a while,
17:32but, you know,
17:33since we're talking
17:33and it's just for today
17:35it's something to commemorate.
17:37I know.
17:38Two of us talking
17:38about our families?
17:39It's like we're related.
17:42Here's to that lesson
17:43more than one day.
17:45And I tell you what,
17:46if I had
17:47anything to drink,
17:48right?
17:49Yeah.
17:49Go ahead.
17:52Nice.
17:54So long.
17:57You know,
17:58I'm impressed
17:59with the strategy
18:00that you and Alexis
18:02came up with.
18:03Yeah,
18:04despite there being
18:04no love lost
18:05between us
18:06after our divorce,
18:07we make a good team
18:08professionally.
18:10I took a chance
18:11on you.
18:12It wasn't easy
18:13given our history,
18:15but I know
18:17you're going to do
18:17what's best
18:18for my grandson.
18:20Yes.
18:21Unfortunately,
18:21my best
18:22didn't include
18:23community service
18:24for Rocco,
18:25as promised
18:25by ADA Turner.
18:26Well,
18:27you know what?
18:27Dalton came in
18:28at the last minute
18:29with false evidence.
18:31No one saw that coming.
18:32Rocco.
18:48How'd you get here?
18:50I took a ride,
18:51Cher.
18:51Hey,
18:52is something wrong?
18:53Is Dalton harassing you?
18:54No,
18:54no,
18:55nothing like that.
18:58But I walked out
18:59on mom and dad,
19:00and I'm not going back.
19:03Can I stay with you?
19:06I'm glad Sonny
19:07was here to help you,
19:09but I can't tell you
19:09how much I regret
19:11not being here for you.
19:14Do you have to get that?
19:17It can wait.
19:19You're my priority.
19:22Laura,
19:22you've been dealing
19:22with this on your own
19:23since election day.
19:26It has to be
19:26incredibly stressful,
19:28let alone terrifying.
19:29I haven't really slept.
19:32Will you hold me?
19:34I'm so glad you're home.
19:35I'm here too.
19:40Honey,
19:42we have to be honest
19:43with ourselves.
19:45I've got a feeling
19:46this is far from over.
19:49Hi,
19:49Portia.
19:50I'm so happy
19:51you could join us.
19:52If I had known Nina
19:53was here,
19:54I wouldn't have come.
19:55Ava,
19:55this feels like an ambush.
19:56That was not
19:58my intention.
19:59Well,
19:59then why did you
20:00arrange this?
20:01Actually,
20:02ladies,
20:03I am going
20:04to go
20:05to the restroom,
20:06so please
20:07excuse me.
20:08Go ahead.
20:09Go ahead.
20:09Do whatever you need
20:09to do for yourself.
20:13I really don't appreciate
20:14being tricked.
20:15I'm sorry.
20:16Like I said,
20:17that was not my intention.
20:18Whatever this is,
20:19I really don't,
20:20I don't have the time
20:21for this right now.
20:22I've got to go.
20:22No, please.
20:23Please don't.
20:24I realize that you're
20:26really angry with Nina,
20:27and honestly,
20:28you have every right to be.
20:29She miscalculated
20:31the whole thing.
20:32She threw me under the bus
20:33for attempted murder.
20:35Well,
20:36she passed your name
20:37on to a third party
20:38who then passed it
20:39on to Alexis.
20:40That's wrong,
20:41but not exactly
20:43accusing you
20:43of shooting Drew.
20:44No,
20:45no,
20:45don't defend her.
20:46I'm not.
20:47I'm not defending her.
20:49I just,
20:50I don't think
20:51the two of you
20:51should be enemies.
20:53Well,
20:54if that's the case,
20:55why are you telling me
20:56this instead of her?
20:59I'll admit
20:59there's friction
21:00between me and Drew,
21:02but a lot of people
21:03have issues with that guy,
21:05and some of them
21:06have an even stronger
21:07motive to shoot him
21:08than me.
21:10Care to elaborate on that?
21:11I have no ill will
21:13toward Willow,
21:14but she was arrested
21:16for a reason.
21:17So, detective,
21:18whether you are trying
21:19to score points
21:20with the department
21:21because you're back
21:21on the force,
21:23or with Nina
21:23for getting her daughter
21:24off the hook,
21:25you are looking
21:27at the wrong man.
21:29Mr. Ashford,
21:29I'm not trying
21:30to earn points
21:30with anybody.
21:31I am giving you
21:32an opportunity
21:32to amend your statement
21:34before it is too late.
21:35Curtis isn't amending
21:36anything,
21:37certainly not
21:38without counsel present.
21:40Maybe you remembered
21:41something that might
21:42make your statement
21:43more accurate
21:44or complete.
21:45I'm sure that you
21:47would hate
21:47for your alibi
21:48to be contradicted
21:49by new information
21:50coming to light
21:51during an ongoing
21:51investigation.
21:53I went from
21:53Alexis Davis' house
21:54to the Savoy
21:55and then to the
21:57brown dog bar
21:57where I had drinks
21:58with Jordan.
22:00And no one
22:00was at the Savoy
22:01with you.
22:02No.
22:03And no one
22:03saw you there.
22:05No.
22:05No.
22:07Not even your wife?
22:08You didn't have
22:14a choice, Nina.
22:16You did what
22:16you had to do.
22:19Portia,
22:20I am so sorry.
22:22I...
22:22Ava didn't tell me
22:23that you were coming
22:23tonight.
22:24If I had known,
22:25I would have ran away
22:26like the coward
22:27that you are.
22:31I realize,
22:33out of context,
22:33what I did was
22:34bad.
22:36Bad?
22:36Terrible.
22:36It was terrible.
22:37But you should know
22:38that I did not
22:39go to the police
22:40and I didn't speak
22:41to Alexis directly.
22:43Wow.
22:43Straight to
22:44justifications,
22:45excuses.
22:46I'm sorry.
22:46Okay.
22:47I truly am sorry.
22:50When my daughter
22:50is accused of a crime
22:52she didn't commit,
22:52I needed to give
22:53her attorney
22:54an alternate suspect.
22:56And you thought
22:57that I fit the bill.
22:59Me?
23:00Your friend?
23:00I promise you,
23:01you are not going
23:02to be accused
23:02of shooting Drew.
23:03I just need to show
23:04there are a lot
23:05of people besides
23:06Willow who want
23:07to see Drew dead.
23:08I wasn't a suspect,
23:09Nina.
23:10I wasn't even
23:10on the PCPD's radar.
23:12I am true.
23:13You betrayed me.
23:14Listen,
23:14I'm trying to save
23:16my daughter.
23:17You keep saying that.
23:18You keep saying that
23:19as if your devotion
23:19to Willow
23:20justifies anything
23:21you want to do.
23:22You know what?
23:23The fact is,
23:24Portia,
23:24I don't know
23:25where you went
23:27that night
23:27after we left here.
23:29I don't know
23:30what you did.
23:31Is that what
23:32this is about?
23:34You think I shot Drew?
23:35All right.
23:40I'll just let
23:41your parents
23:41know you're here.
23:44Okay,
23:45you can't walk
23:48out on the street
23:49and worry them.
23:50I know you know that.
23:53So what happened?
23:55My dad said
23:55I wasn't allowed
23:56to see Gio anymore.
23:57He and my mom
23:58are blaming everything
23:59that happened
23:59with Dalton
24:00and the lab
24:01on him.
24:01Hey,
24:02Sonny,
24:02I'm going to let you
24:03do this.
24:03No, Rick,
24:04just stay.
24:04It's fine.
24:06Sure.
24:06Yeah,
24:06there's football
24:07in the den.
24:07Just give me a minute
24:08with Baracko.
24:09Okay,
24:09sure.
24:10Okay.
24:16Grandpa,
24:16my dad is flat out wrong.
24:18You know how great
24:19Gio is.
24:20Baracko,
24:21listen to me.
24:22You can disagree
24:23with your dad,
24:24you can yell at your dad,
24:25you can even fight
24:26with your dad.
24:27but you can't walk out.
24:34That's my dad.
24:36Baracko's over there
24:36which isn't much
24:37of a surprise
24:38because that's
24:39where Gio lives.
24:42Baracko's upset.
24:43He would have gone
24:43to Sonny's or my mom's
24:44no matter where Gio is.
24:47At least this guy's
24:47grandparents, right?
24:49Right.
24:50He's just lashing out.
24:52He knows he has you too.
24:54I just don't understand
24:55how all this just feels
24:57like it keeps getting worse.
25:00Baracko's found out
25:01a lot of new
25:02life-changing information
25:04about himself
25:05in a really short
25:06amount of time.
25:07What he needs from us
25:08right now is patience
25:09and understanding.
25:11And I just don't know
25:12how I missed
25:14that much resentment
25:15he feels towards me
25:16for leaving
25:17twice.
25:19There were
25:20extenuating circumstances
25:22we can't expect
25:22Baracko to understand.
25:24That's a nice way
25:25when it...
25:25Well, it's the truth.
25:27And I think
25:28from Rocco's perspective,
25:31Gio has extenuating
25:32circumstances too
25:34for doing the things
25:35he's done.
25:37Where was your wife
25:38that night?
25:40Now you're questioning
25:40Curtis about someone
25:41else's whereabouts?
25:42Well, considering
25:43he is married
25:44to the someone else,
25:45yes.
25:46It's been established
25:47that you were with
25:48Jordan the night
25:49that drew Michelle.
25:50Why weren't you
25:50with your wife?
25:51I wasn't with my wife
25:52because she was on duty
25:53at General Hospital.
25:55Where she is
25:55the co-chief of staff,
25:57she's quite busy.
25:58Your wife was busy,
26:00so you called
26:01your ex-wife.
26:02Okay, how is
26:03any of this relevant?
26:04Well, considering
26:04you're sitting in the room
26:05here with us,
26:06acting as his
26:07de facto counsel,
26:07I consider it very relevant.
26:09Detective West,
26:11my personal relationships
26:13are none of your business.
26:16If you feel the need
26:17to waste my time
26:17in the future,
26:18go through my attorney.
26:20We're done here.
26:29I mean,
26:29we both know
26:30that you had reasons
26:31to hate Drew.
26:32I mean,
26:32you had a reason
26:33to drug him.
26:34So did you.
26:36We did it together.
26:37It's not a leap
26:38to think that you
26:39could have shot him,
26:40too.
26:41So, wait,
26:42this is really
26:42your justification
26:43for betraying me?
26:45I am just trying
26:46to take the spotlight
26:47off of my daughter,
26:49just like you,
26:50Portia,
26:51just like you.
26:52I would do anything
26:53to protect my child.
26:55You want to talk
26:55about protecting your child?
26:57What about protecting mine?
26:59And I'm not only
27:00talking about Trina,
27:01I'm talking about
27:03the one that I'm carrying.
27:08Laura,
27:09I'm not second-guessing you.
27:12You reached out
27:13to the person
27:13who you felt
27:14could best help you
27:15in the moment.
27:16Thank you
27:17for understanding that.
27:19But we can't
27:20kid ourselves.
27:21Someone went
27:22to the trouble
27:22of putting a dead body
27:24in your trunk.
27:26That's not just
27:27setting you up,
27:27that's a message.
27:29And we have no reason
27:30to think that they're done.
27:32Kevin,
27:33I think I know
27:33who's behind this.
27:38Boy,
27:39whoever this is
27:40seems to really
27:41need you.
27:42It's a young person
27:44who's struggling.
27:46They just
27:46checked themselves
27:47into the psych ward
27:48at G.H.
27:48Oh,
27:49you should go.
27:51Honey,
27:52we're talking about
27:53finding a corpse
27:54in your car.
27:55Yeah,
27:55I know,
27:55but it's a conversation
27:57that can wait
27:58and it doesn't seem
27:59like your patient can.
28:02I don't know
28:03how long this will take.
28:04I don't mind
28:06waiting for you
28:07to come back
28:08and finish our conversation.
28:09and then probably
28:10I won't
28:11be asleep anyway.
28:14All right.
28:21I love you.
28:23I love you so much.
28:26So much.
28:28You're out on bail
28:29facing criminal charges.
28:31This is serious,
28:32Rocco.
28:33You can't be out
28:34on the streets
28:35at night.
28:36I don't blame your father
28:37for being concerned.
28:38And you shouldn't blame
28:39G.H.O. for my mistakes.
28:40You know what?
28:41I don't agree
28:43with your dad
28:43a hundred percent
28:44on a lot of things,
28:45but I tell you what,
28:47he's your father.
28:50You got to respect him
28:51because he's just
28:52trying to protect you.
28:53I don't need
28:53protection from G.H.O.
28:55Maybe,
28:55maybe not,
28:56but your parents
28:57have every right
28:58to question your judgment,
29:00especially with the way
29:01you're acting,
29:02with your bad choices.
29:03Do you see
29:04the problem there?
29:06So what am I
29:07supposed to do?
29:09You want to,
29:10you want to get
29:11some breathing room
29:12with your parents?
29:14You have to prove
29:15to them
29:16that they can trust you.
29:21That's not going
29:22to happen overnight.
29:24I guess taking you
29:25off didn't help things.
29:28No, but guess what?
29:29You came here
29:32and I'm glad you did.
29:36You can stay here tonight.
29:38Thanks, Grandpa.
29:47Hey, Rocco.
29:51You'll be okay.
29:52Obviously,
29:59the extenuating
30:00circumstances
30:00you're talking about
30:01with G.H.O.
30:02is that
30:02he found out
30:03that Brooklyn
30:03and I were his parents.
30:05I'd say that's
30:06pretty extenuating,
30:07wouldn't you?
30:08Sure.
30:09Yeah,
30:09I'd say that too.
30:11But it,
30:12look,
30:12regardless of what
30:13G.H.O.'s going through
30:14personally,
30:14he's still
30:15an older brother.
30:16He's in a position
30:17of trust.
30:17And twice now,
30:19he's failed
30:21to look out
30:21for Rocco.
30:22And that,
30:23again,
30:23that's on me.
30:26Because I wanted
30:27to be close
30:27to G.H.O.
30:28So I encouraged
30:29Rocco to build
30:30a relationship
30:30with him.
30:31Don't flatter
30:32yourself.
30:33Rocco's interest
30:34in G.H.O.
30:35isn't just
30:35because of you.
30:36I,
30:36I actually think
30:38they have a lot
30:39in common,
30:40including the people
30:42who love them.
30:43So for better
30:44or worse,
30:46Rocco isn't going
30:47to give up
30:47on G.H.O.
30:48just because
30:48you tell him to.
30:51You're pregnant.
30:52You think I should
30:53have trusted you
30:54with that information?
30:55I never would have
30:56pregnant.
30:56You never would have
30:56sacrificed me
30:57to save your trainwreck
30:58of a daughter
30:59if you knew
30:59I was pregnant?
31:00Oh, please.
31:01You'd have me
31:02give birth in prison
31:03before letting Willow
31:03face any consequences.
31:05Okay, I think
31:05we've said enough
31:06for tonight.
31:07No, no,
31:07I'm not done
31:08with you yet.
31:08No, no.
31:10And I know
31:10why you did this.
31:12Because you think
31:12Willow is guilty.
31:14I think Willow
31:14made mistakes,
31:15but only because
31:16Drew manipulated her.
31:18Newsflash,
31:18Nina,
31:19Willow is not
31:19some innocent victim.
31:21She married Drew today.
31:24She's riding shotgun,
31:25and I'm not going
31:25to allow either of you
31:26to run over me.
31:27All right,
31:28I don't have to listen to this.
31:29I said it!
31:29I'm not talking to you yet!
31:32What happened?
31:34Where are you going?
31:36I don't know.
31:36I don't know.
31:37Is everything all right?
31:46It will be.
31:47In case Nina
31:48didn't get the message,
31:49you tell her
31:50I will not be
31:50her collateral damage.
31:52She wants to protect Willow.
31:53I'm going to protect mine.
31:57What?
31:59Lady Turner,
32:00I think we need
32:01to take a closer look
32:02at Curtis Ashford.
32:03I'd like to start
32:04by calling in the bartender,
32:06the waitress,
32:07any patrons
32:08who might have been
32:08at the brown dog
32:09the night of the shooting.
32:10If we can pinpoint
32:11when Curtis got there,
32:13it might give us enough
32:14to secure a warrant
32:15for the security footage
32:16of Curtis's nightclub.
32:18The fact that they brought you
32:19in for questioning
32:20again
32:20tells me that their case
32:22against Willow
32:22isn't as solid
32:23as they'd hoped.
32:26Doesn't seem like it.
32:27Well,
32:28obviously,
32:28you didn't shoot Drew,
32:29so there's no way
32:30they can pin this on you,
32:31but please,
32:32Curtis,
32:34do not talk
32:35to the cops again
32:36without your lawyer.
32:37I won't,
32:39but I am grateful
32:40to you
32:41for stepping up
32:42and going to bat for me,
32:44which is why
32:45I have to tell you
32:46what really happened.
32:52What happened?
32:53The night you were shot.
32:55I had to lie
32:56to the police tonight,
32:57but
32:58I don't want
33:00to lie to you.
33:02You need to go
33:03fix things with Rocco.
33:05No,
33:06I liked what you said
33:07before about us
33:07both needing
33:08to cool down a little bit.
33:09No,
33:10I was just meaning
33:10don't chase him
33:11down the driveway,
33:12but now that you've
33:13had a moment,
33:14you need to go there
33:15and you need to explain
33:16to him what you're feeling
33:17and why,
33:18and you need to listen.
33:20Compromise,
33:21because Gio
33:21isn't going anywhere.
33:23I'm not going to stand by
33:24and let Gio
33:25lead Rocco
33:26into some dangerous
33:27situation again.
33:28But you don't need
33:29to cut Gio
33:30out of our son's life.
33:32Get him to understand
33:34why his actions
33:35concern you.
33:37And then maybe
33:38he'll meet you
33:40halfway.
33:43How's Rocco doing?
33:45Well,
33:45he's mad at his father,
33:47his father's mad at him,
33:48they're saying things
33:48to each other
33:49that, you know,
33:49they shouldn't be saying.
33:50Oh, yeah.
33:51Hotheads.
33:52I wonder where
33:53they get that from.
33:53Hey,
