00:00Hey, did the printer send over the...
00:13Press releases? Yes.
00:14Every journalist that walks in through the front door will get a hard copy.
00:17You know, old school.
00:18Wow, very retro.
00:19Okay.
00:20What about the Jabot gifts?
00:21Good question.
00:22Marsha, can you check and see if Jabot sent that package yet, please?
00:26Sound check.
00:27We haven't done a sound check.
00:27Text your honor.
00:30Okay.
00:31All right, everyone, attention, please.
00:32Gather around just really quick.
00:34Hi.
00:36Okay, so we need everyone at their very best.
00:41Big smiles, warm welcomes.
00:43We want every guest to feel like they're getting the full VIP treatment.
00:45Speaking of who's on guest check-in, fantastic.
00:48Make sure that there is a guest list, right?
00:50So anybody that shows up that's not on that list and there's a problem,
00:52don't handle it on your own.
00:53Yeah, ask one of us.
00:55Okay, and you two will be handling the press.
00:57Make sure they know where their staging area is
01:00and that they have all the access that they need.
01:02Everyone, keep your eyes and ears open, okay?
01:04Mix and mingle with the crowd.
01:05We want to show everyone a good time.
01:06Yes, and anticipate needs.
01:09Awesome.
01:10Great.
01:10Great.
01:11All right, let's show the best damn launch party this town's ever seen.
01:14Great.
01:14Thank you, guys.
01:17Okay.
01:18All right, it's really happening.
01:19It's happening.
01:20Nobody's going to pull the rug out from under us tonight.
01:23Not Victor, not Kane.
01:24Me?
01:25No, because we're a great team.
01:27We are a force to be reckoned with.
01:28Mm-hmm.
01:29No one's going to stop us.
01:30Yeah, no, we're going to launch Abbott Communications
01:32with all the glitz and the fanfare
01:34that a soon-to-be very successful company like ours deserves.
01:37I'm happy to be on the team.
01:39Your team, Sally's team.
01:41I want everyone to know that you are front and center,
01:43and you are the boss,
01:44and I am proud to be your second in command.
01:54I'm proud of you, son.
01:55The way you have handled your first crisis as CEO
01:58is very impressive.
02:00Thanks.
02:01I learned everything I know from the best.
02:04Watching both my parents run the company,
02:06I'm just hoping that together we can save my grandfather's legacy.
02:11My dad put his heart and soul into that company.
02:15He taught me everything I know
02:17so that I could sustain, maintain,
02:22and move forward with a company
02:23so that the next generations of Abbott's can work there.
02:27And he'd be proud to see how much Jabot has grown
02:30under your leadership.
02:31Until today,
02:34I'm almost glad he isn't alive
02:37to see what Victor is up to,
02:38to see the lengths we have gone to
02:41in order to stop him.
02:48Oh, Victor.
02:51Oh, I'm so glad you're home and missed you.
02:53I'm so happy to see you, my baby.
02:55I'm so happy.
02:57Hi, Grandpa.
02:58Hi, my darling.
02:59I'm so glad you're back.
03:00And Mom wanted to be here to greet you,
03:02but she had a meeting at Newman that she couldn't miss.
03:04That's okay.
03:05All right.
03:07So?
03:07So?
03:08Yeah?
03:09Where?
03:10Where is everybody else?
03:11Well?
03:14Oh, Noah.
03:16Noah.
03:17Oh.
03:18Oh.
03:20I was so worried about you.
03:22But look at you.
03:23You look amazing.
03:25I don't know about all that.
03:26Oh, nonsense.
03:27Now you're the picture of hell.
03:29How are you feeling?
03:31I'm feeling really good, Grandma, really.
03:34I'm just glad to be home.
03:35And this place is even more amazing in person.
03:38This is what I prayed for.
03:40That we would all be together for the holidays.
03:43I couldn't ask for anything more.
03:45I'm just glad to be here.
03:46I'm just glad to be here.
03:46I'm just glad to be here.
03:47I'm just glad to be here.
03:48I'm just glad to be here.
03:49I'm just glad to be here.
03:50I'm just glad to be here.
03:50I'm just glad to be here.
03:50I'm just glad to be here.
03:51I'm just glad to be here.
03:52I'm just glad to be here.
03:53I'm just glad to be here.
03:54I'm just glad to be here.
03:54I'm just glad to be here.
03:55I'm just glad to be here.
03:56I'm just glad to be here.
03:57I'm just glad to be here.
03:57I'm just glad to be here.
03:58I'm just glad to be here.
03:58I'm just glad to be here.
03:59I'm just glad to be here.
04:00I'm just glad to be here.
04:01Oh, I don't know why it's right now at this point.
04:30Oh, I didn't realize Noah lived so large.
04:35It's some house. It's almost as big as mine.
04:39Really?
04:42Seriously, though, I always thought that living in a family compound would be kind of creepy,
04:48but it seems like you all really love being with each other.
04:51I hope you realize there's my money and power that's behind this lifestyle that saved your ass.
05:04I do. I realize that.
05:10Remember.
05:13It's like you can lie on you.
05:14I'm sorry. That did not come out the way that I meant.
05:25I get a little sarcastic sometimes. It's kind of like a nervous tick.
05:31Charming fruit.
05:31Yeah, honestly, I am very grateful to you and your family for helping me.
05:37I'm really sorry if it sounded like I wasn't.
05:41I know that your act of kindness probably saved my life,
05:45and you bringing me here to Genoa City was beyond generous.
05:51So thank you again.
05:53You gave us all quite a scare, you know.
06:08I'm sorry to worry everyone, but I am fine now.
06:11I'm just so glad that you're here and almost back to your old handsome self.
06:17People keep telling this dude he's handsome, it's going to go to his head.
06:20Yeah, well, not with that around to keep me humble.
06:23And I really can't begin to tell you how much it meant to me
06:27that you and Aunt Victoria came all the way to L.A. just to check on me.
06:30Darling, I would go to the ends of the earth for you.
06:35And don't forget about your cousin Claire. She came to see you too.
06:39Yeah, well, technically you were unconscious when I visited,
06:41so there's no way you would remember.
06:43I don't know. I'm getting kind of a familiar vibe from you.
06:45Like, maybe somewhere deep inside I felt your presence.
06:48I knew it.
06:49I knew that everyone talking to you and visiting was getting through.
06:55I am convinced that's what helped him heal.
06:58Maybe I do remember you being there.
07:00Regardless, it's nice to finally get to meet you in person, officially.
07:03And you do.
07:05Cuz.
07:05Hey, everyone, um, there's someone else I'd like you to meet.
07:15This is my friend Sienna, visiting from Los Angeles.
07:18I hope you'll all make her feel very welcome.
07:20Sienna.
07:23From the Shadow Room?
07:25Sienna.
07:27You don't recognize me if I'm not buying you a vest for your son?
07:31What are you doing in Genoa City?
07:39Are you sure you're fine with it?
07:42Playing the role of number two?
07:43I'm more than fine with it.
07:47I'm so excited that our retro launch party is happening tonight.
07:50Abit Communications is a reality.
07:53A media company based on truth, integrity.
07:56It's an increasingly rare commodity in this world.
07:59You're right.
08:00I just want to make sure that people don't think that our retro theme is how we're gonna operate
08:05because we are unfettered by antiquated roles.
08:08So you're saying a woman's place is in the boardroom?
08:11It's damn right what I'm saying.
08:12Yours in particular.
08:14Okay, all joking aside, though, we are co-CEOs.
08:17Are you sure you're okay with everyone seeing me as your equal?
08:20Absolutely not.
08:22No, because you are more talented and more creative than I am.
08:25And more importantly, you're more disciplined than I am.
08:30You're my better half, Sally.
08:33Wow.
08:34Love and the positivity.
08:36You bring it out of me.
08:36Well, it means the world that you believe in me and Abit Communications.
08:42A thousand percent.
08:43And I know my resume doesn't stack up against other CEOs, but I promise you I'm up for the task.
08:48Oh, I know you are.
08:49And I appreciate your confidence.
08:52And let's be honest, if I was running this company and people would be waiting for my downfall,
08:56I wouldn't trust the potential success of this company.
08:58Okay, well, don't doubt this, okay?
09:03You and me?
09:04Because whoever thinks that way, we're going to prove to them just how wrong they are.
09:16Okay.
09:17Now what?
09:19You're saying, hey?
09:19Uh, oh.
09:21Oh.
09:21Hi.
09:22Hi.
09:23Nice of you to come by.
09:25I just wanted to wish you both much success with the launch tonight.
09:30I'll be rooting for you.
09:32I know you're both going to knock it out of the park.
09:36I really appreciate that.
09:37Uh, yeah, I'm going to have to take this, okay?
09:43Excuse me for a second.
09:44Good to see you, Audra.
09:45Hello?
09:48What is this?
09:50You know, just a little good luck present for my bestie.
09:55Okay, you shouldn't have.
09:57Well, this is a special day for you, okay?
10:00And I just wanted to get you something special to commemorate it.
10:04Okay, go on, open it.
10:05I promise you, you won't be disappointed.
10:12Okay.
10:14People talk about honor and decency in business.
10:17When my dad started Jabot, a man's word was worth something.
10:23Deals were made with a handshake.
10:26Nowadays, if you reach out your hand, you might just lose a limb.
10:29Yeah, sadly, that has always been the way with Victor.
10:32He and people like him treat a civilized gentleman's agreement like a blood sport.
10:38I expect Victor will make his move soon, at least I hope so, because now we're ready for him.
10:44I hope you're right.
10:46We have done everything we can to defend Jabot, and all that's left is the waiting game.
10:52I've got to admit, suspense is killing me.
10:55Careful what you wish for.
10:57I have a feeling his attack is imminent.
11:01And once he makes his move, it will all play out very quickly.
11:04And for us, losing is not an option.
11:08On to another subject.
11:14Claire seemed pretty upset when Diane and I saw you both here yesterday.
11:19Upset is an understatement.
11:21Claire has had it with Audra.
11:24Actually, we both have.
11:25That's understandable.
11:26Given what I know of her stunt, when we were all trapped in Nice, colluding with Victor to break the two of you up.
11:34Hey, she needed an investor for a new company.
11:37Yeah, that's when she lost me.
11:39Yeah, she's actually even worse now, if you can believe that.
11:42God, you'd think she would learn her lesson and just back off, especially when this dangerous game she was playing with you blew up in her face.
11:50Certainly, she learned nothing.
11:51Well, she lost everything.
11:54Not just the job opportunity Victor promised her, but now her relationship with Nate.
12:00Yeah, I may have won that game, but I lost something, too.
12:04Yeah, Claire's trusting me, and I have no one to blame but myself.
12:08Well, I have some hope in seeing the two of you share a drink here earlier, even if she was upset.
12:14I mean, she wasn't upset with you.
12:16Yeah.
12:16I mean, I'm clinging to the hope that I can find some way to earn back her trust.
12:23I'm glad you haven't given up.
12:26Hang in there.
12:28The irony is, the way back into Claire's good graces may turn out to be through Audra Charles.
12:39A travel book?
12:41To an island in Greece?
12:44Yes.
12:45A Lemnos Island.
12:47Okay, you said this was a good luck gift, but the only vacation I'm going to be taking is if our company fails.
12:52So, is there something that, I don't know, that you do?
12:56Do you remember what we talked about before you decided to recommit to Billy and Abbott Communications?
13:03We talked about a lot of things.
13:04Yes.
13:05Including creating a future where, you know, it didn't depend on the egotistical whims of the male species.
13:13Yes.
13:14How could I forget?
13:15Okay, well, in Greek mythology, in the story of Jason and the Argonauts,
13:19who knows, was the island the sailors landed on that was entirely populated by and ruled by women.
13:28Mm-hmm.
13:28Because they killed all the men.
13:32You know the story?
13:33Well, it was lucky, yes.
13:35No, I watched a PBS documentary.
13:37Those women were no joke.
13:39Right?
13:39Yeah.
13:39See, the thing I love about Lemnos is that it was ruled by these Amazon-like women.
13:47Now, I know Billy promised to let you steer the Abbott Communications ship,
13:53but just in case he goes back on his word and you need to murder him,
13:58now you know of a place you can run off to where you won't be judged.
14:02And I promise you, I won't tell a soul where you are.
14:05Well, thank you.
14:08I appreciate that.
14:09I mean, served umbrella drinks by Amazons does sound like a wonderful escape,
14:12but I don't think I will need to flee the jurisdiction anytime soon,
14:16because Billy does have my back.
14:18Mm-hmm.
14:19So do I.
14:21I really hate that I'm not able to do this with you.
14:25Yeah.
14:26We are a couple of badass Amazons ourselves.
14:31I'm so sorry.
14:33I know we would have made a great team,
14:35but, you know, it's not forever.
14:39It's just not yet.
14:41Just don't even go there tonight.
14:43It's not about me.
14:45It's about you.
14:48You and Billy think alike,
14:50because he just said the same thing to me.
14:52I'm just happy to see my best friend succeed.
14:56Well, I am happy that I have a best friend like you.
15:00I just wanted to give you all your space.
15:04I didn't want to interrupt your family reunion.
15:07Wanted to give you your moment.
15:09Uh, yes, Mother, this is Sienna from the shadow room.
15:13I see my reputation precedes me.
15:16Yeah, Grandma, I'm sure that I mentioned Sienna.
15:18It was her club that I spent so much time at in L.A.
15:21And Holden introduced us.
15:25Well, that doesn't really answer our question.
15:28What are you doing here in Genoa City?
15:31Oh, Noah!
15:33What's up, man?
15:36Oh, it's so good to have you home.
15:38Thank God you're okay.
15:39We've been praying for you, hoping for a speedy recovery.
15:42I definitely felt all the love and support.
15:45And, uh, oh, this is my friend Sienna from L.A.
15:47Uh, Sienna, this is my uncle Adam and his partner Chelsea.
15:50Nice.
15:51Oh, partner.
15:52Partner as in, oh, you know, work, life.
15:57Nice.
15:58Very nice to meet you.
15:59Me too.
15:59Now that you're here, I'd like to tell you all why I asked you to come.
16:05Most importantly, I want you all to welcome Noah.
16:10Yeah.
16:11All in one piece.
16:12Secondly, I've got to make all of you aware that there's someone out there who's targeting
16:23our family.
16:26It's a serious business.
16:36I knew you were keeping something from me.
16:38What has happened?
16:39Sure, that's some information that Nick, Sheridan, and I have been holding back.
16:45Yeah?
16:46We didn't want to worry you unnecessarily until we knew for sure.
16:49Okay, what is it?
16:52Matt Clark is alive.
16:54What?
16:55How can that be?
16:56It's true, Mom.
16:58We don't know how he did it, but he reinvented himself as this new club owner from L.A.,
17:04but he has the same old vendetta against me and Sharon.
17:07And he's my husband.
17:09Although, I didn't know him as Matt Clark, only Mitch Bacall, and I didn't find out he
17:14was violent until just now.
17:16I'm sorry.
17:16Who is Matt Clark?
17:18He is a horrible, disgusting man who has done horrendous, unspeakable things.
17:26He attacked me.
17:27He framed Nicholas for murder.
17:29His murder.
17:30Which is why we thought he was dead.
17:32His hatred of Nicholas and me goes all the way back to our high school days.
17:37He's been carrying around a grudge ever since.
17:40He will use anything or anyone near us or peripherally to exact his revenge.
17:50He is a threat that we all need to take seriously.
17:55It's true.
17:55Sure, he befriended me, and he's the whole reason I was in L.A., but now we know for sure
18:00that he's responsible for the crash and almost killed me.
18:02Yeah, I pretty much proved that when he locked the two of us up and threatened to kill me if
18:06Noah didn't take fentanyl.
18:07Oh, my God.
18:08What?
18:09Use me to try to hurt Mom and Dad.
18:12And this guy hasn't been apprehended yet?
18:14Afraid not.
18:15Okay, just a minute.
18:17I'm having trouble getting my mind around this.
18:21Matt Clark was supposed to be dead years ago, and now you're saying that he has a new identity?
18:29As if it wasn't bad enough the last time he got away with it.
18:32I mean, why hasn't he been arrested?
18:35Well, they got close.
18:36There's an APB out for him, but they haven't found him yet.
18:39He's got to be stopped.
18:41Yes, and he will, along with his accomplice, this dirty cop from L.A. named Annie.
18:47Nicholas and I have a plan for the bastard.
18:50Victor, that sounds dangerous.
18:52Can't you let the police handle it?
18:54No.
18:56I'll tell you this, if Matt Clark is as smart as he thinks he is,
19:01he'll get the hell out of town on his own.
19:03He is smart, but he's also insane.
19:07And he clearly knows how to hold a grudge.
19:10So let's just hope that he's not on his way to Genoa City to try to finish what he started.
19:21Excuse me, do you mind taking this in the back, please?
19:24Awesome.
19:25Okay, look, I promise, once Abbott Communications gets up and running, I will find a way to bring you on board.
19:31I appreciate how determined you are to get me in, but I don't want to put you in an awkward or compromising position with your investor.
19:42Hey, you let me worry about that, okay?
19:44It's all going to work out.
19:46I promise.
19:46Yeah, I think it will, one way or another.
19:51But I actually like my chances at Abbott Communications because I have a suspicion that your investor is a woman.
19:59I never confirmed that.
20:02You never denied it.
20:04Why? And that helps your case? Because all women love you?
20:08Ouch! I'm taking my book back.
20:10Hey, what kind of Amazon woman can't take a joke?
20:13Okay, good one.
20:17Good afternoon, ladies.
20:19Hi.
20:19Hi, Sally. How's it going? You ready for the night?
20:22Yeah, I've been ready since the first time we planned it.
20:24Excited?
20:25I'm excited. Yeah, I'm a little nervous, but a good kind of nervous.
20:30Sorry, Sally, but I really do have to take off.
20:33Look, I am rooting for you, and just know that I am wishing you the best of luck tonight.
20:38You're still coming, right?
20:40I don't know.
20:43I don't think that's a good idea.
20:45No, I think it's a great idea.
20:47You absolutely should attend.
20:49How can you not be here to support your one and only friend?
20:59I hate to say it, but there's a definite possibility that Matt Clark shows up in Genoa City.
21:03He is that insane.
21:05And you think he would come all the way from Los Angeles just to go after you?
21:09I mean, he would take that risk, knowing he's a wanted man.
21:13I wouldn't put anything past him.
21:16He thinks that he can outsmart everyone, and so far, he has.
21:20I'm asking all of you to take this very seriously.
21:23You've all been through so much with Noah's car crash, and now you have to deal with this nightmare.
21:28I'm really sorry.
21:31On the bright side, I know Connor's excited to see his cousin.
21:33I can't wait to see all my cousins.
21:35I didn't realize how much I missed Genoa City until I drove on to the ranch.
21:39You know, horseback riding, holidays.
21:41It's good to be home.
21:42All right.
21:44I should probably get going.
21:46I have to get ready for the launch party, and then Katie actually asked me to help her get ready for the dance.
21:50So, love you.
21:51Yeah, we'll follow you out.
21:53We want to get Noah and Sienna settled in down at Sharon's.
21:58Love you, Mom.
21:59Love you, too.
22:00Love you guys.
22:01Bye.
22:02Good to see you.
22:03You, too.
22:05Passion or you're home, Noah?
22:06Good to be home.
22:08Are Noah and Sienna together?
22:17No.
22:18Well, I would hate to speculate on the nature of their relationship, but, um...
22:24You know, that Sienna is married to this Matt Clark guy that we just talked about.
22:30And I'm keeping an eye on the situation.
22:33I hope there won't be anything for you to see.
22:36I assume you're not going to this launch party tonight?
22:40No.
22:42I have more important things to do.
22:46Oh.
22:46And what do you have to do that's more important?
22:56Yes, you're right, Kyle.
22:59It would be nice to be able to support my friend.
23:02You know, it's a shame you had to couch that sentiment in your usual snark.
23:06Taking an easy shot at me.
23:07Wrong again, Audra.
23:09I was being so sincere.
23:12As far as taking shots at you, I've decided it's not worth the time or energy.
23:17And yet here you are, burning both on my behalf.
23:19So, feel free to go on with your life.
23:22And I'll go on with mine.
23:23And Claire can go on with hers.
23:25Yeah, like I need your permission.
23:26You know, it's too bad that those lives you and your ex are moving on to are not together.
23:33I'm not surprised Claire decided to move away from you forever.
23:37Okay, there you go again.
23:39Running your mouth about a subject you know absolutely nothing about.
23:43Things have changed.
23:44I'll have to see it to believe it.
23:46But more than likely, what I'll see is your desperation.
23:49And then I'll have the pleasure of watching you make a fool of yourself again.
23:52Okay, I think I've heard enough from both of you.
23:55He's worrisome.
23:59Look, I can't wait to hear how tonight goes.
24:04Will you please reconsider coming?
24:07I'll see.
24:08This may be your night, but it's still the Abbott's party.
24:22Is everything okay?
24:24Yeah, mm-hmm.
24:25Better than okay.
24:26Okay, good.
24:27Check, huh?
24:28Abbott Communications branding is great.
24:30Love the new logo.
24:31It just pops.
24:33Are you sure Kane's not going to try to pull another fast one?
24:36I'm not worried about Kane anymore.
24:37Good.
24:39Kane is no longer a threat.
24:41Victor is.
24:46Darling, my work tonight does nothing for you to be concerned about, right?
24:49Meaning that you're keeping something else with me.
24:53You know, I am capable of receiving difficult news without falling apart,
24:59but nobody in this family will give me any credit for that.
25:02Well, I don't feel that way at all.
25:04No, we know how tough you are, Nikki.
25:06I mean, you of all people, you should know that.
25:10So, are you ready to come clean with me?
25:14What are you talking about?
25:16There's nothing to come clean about, all right?
25:19Don't you worry about a damn thing.
25:22Are you going to the party tonight?
25:24I haven't decided yet.
25:26Well, we're both going to go.
25:30We're going to go check out our new so-called competition.
25:34We'll make sure to fill you in.
25:37Kindly spare me the play-by-play, all right?
25:39I should get going.
25:45I want to get ready, okay?
25:46Okay.
25:47See you later.
25:49Bye, Victor.
25:50Chelsea, nice to see you.
25:52You too.
25:52All right.
25:53So, are you ready to release the AI program into the Jibo system?
26:12So, you want to pull the trigger?
26:16You want to do it while everyone's busy at the launch party?
26:18Yeah.
26:22Jack Abbott will go down tonight.
26:31Here it is.
26:32Home sweet home.
26:33I can't tell you how good it is to hear those words from you.
26:40Wow.
26:42This place is so quaint.
26:45I mean, it's just so much more intimate than your grandparents' house.
26:52I mean, don't get me wrong.
26:54The house is gorgeous.
26:56It's just, you know, slightly intimidating.
26:58Well, maybe it is the owner of the home and not the decor.
27:05That seems slightly intimidating.
27:07Yeah.
27:08Well, I can feel that this place is very warm and welcoming.
27:14I always thought so, too.
27:16I might be a bit biased since this is the house I grew up in.
27:20Can I get you two something to eat or drink?
27:24Oh, I am starving.
27:25Ah, yeah.
27:26I wouldn't say no to a cracker.
27:28Well, I think I can hustle up a sandwich or two.
27:37Thanks.
27:37You and your family.
27:41Wow, you, uh, you seem very tight, huh?
27:45We've had our moments.
27:47Yeah, but, you know, when push comes to shove, we're all about family.
27:51Hmm.
27:52Must be nice.
27:54You know, knowing you've got people who will support you and love you and look out for you no matter what, huh?
28:01Unconditional love, right?
28:03Mm-hmm.
28:03Well, it's not so common in my world, so you should feel very lucky.
28:08I do.
28:09I do.
28:10Even more so since the accident.
28:13Yeah.
28:13They all just came to your rescue.
28:16I guess this must be a little awkward for you.
28:19Uh, yeah, you know?
28:21Yeah.
28:22I'm gonna admit that, you know, I definitely feel a bit like an intruder.
28:26I realize everyone's pretending they're okay with my being here, but, um, I feel the underlying tension.
28:34Especially from your grandmother.
28:36Hey, hey, both of my grandparents are extremely overprotective.
28:42All right?
28:43But don't worry, don't chill out once they get to know you better.
28:46I'm sure you'll feel the same once you get to know them.
28:48They really are very special people.
28:51Yeah, no doubt.
28:52No doubt, and I really am, I'm very grateful to them for letting me stay here until the cops are able to arrest me.
29:01Matt.
29:04But?
29:08But I'm still just not sure that coming here was the right call.
29:13It was absolutely the right call, okay?
29:18You're safe here.
29:19I don't have to worry about you.
29:21Nobody can get to you on the compound or anywhere else in Genoa City, for that matter, okay?
29:28Not while you're with me.
29:29So tonight is the night, huh?
29:58Yeah.
30:00Yeah?
30:04You don't seem terribly excited.
30:07Oh, no, I'm very much looking forward to seeing the look on Billy's face when his launch party blows up.
30:16Wait a minute, I thought you were looking forward to seeing Jack Abbott and Jabbao upended.
30:22Dad, my beef isn't with Jack.
30:29My beef isn't with Jack.
30:34That man who's financing your company is coming after you and Numa Media.
30:39What are you talking about?
30:40I see, you know that Jack is not the financier of Billy's new company any longer, okay?
30:46It's a lot more complicated than that now.
30:48Yes.
30:49Hmm.
30:50Huh.
30:51That's interesting.
30:53All right, I'll see you.
30:55yes

32:21well good luck
32:22you you stay safe too
32:23all right
32:24well I guess it's just us ladies
32:39I'm not worried about Victor ruining the launch of our company
32:49you should be worried about Victor
32:50the man cannot be trusted
32:53we have no idea what he's going to do next
32:55no I hope you've taken some precautions of that
32:57but communications
32:58we have
32:58tonight's gonna go off without a hitch
33:00I guarantee that
33:01Billy filled me in on the AI thread
33:03and Jabot's course of action
33:04that you're taking a response to it
33:06are you worried about Victor coming after your company
33:08before it even has a chance to get off the ground
33:11I'm not too concerned about Apple communications
33:14just because we're just launching
33:16and we have a lot less in the way of assets
33:18for anyone to want to go after
33:19we're a lot less vulnerable and exposed to that sort of threat
33:21but still I think
33:22we have taken every precaution
33:24to protect our systems
33:25if you'll excuse me
33:27I actually have a call with our IT team about that very thing
33:29of course you do because you're in control
33:31yes
33:32well looks like you're making some great changes in your life
33:38I'm trying
33:40oh you're doing a good job
33:42no if not long ago
33:44you would have had to control
33:45every detail of the whole thing
33:47yeah
33:47it says to me that
33:49well you're
33:51taking this whole opportunity seriously
33:53you're changing the way you do things
33:54well I trust Sally
33:55and she needs to know that
33:58we can do this together
33:59and it doesn't have to be about me
34:00sounds like you're on the right path to success
34:02so what's going on with Jabot
34:05any new details you want to share
34:07our save Jabot plan is underway
34:09and we're not just playing defense
34:12Diane is overseeing a counter move to Victor's attack
34:16I like the sound of that
34:17she is working with our IT team
34:19to plant some rather cunning traps
34:21that not only detect the AI program's intrusion
34:25but also lead back to the source
34:27Victor
34:27and we will be able to expose all of his illegal activity
34:31he'll get what he deserves
34:32it's brilliant
34:32if things go as planned
34:34God willing
34:35we will never have to deal with Victor Newman again
34:38did Michael tell you what he found out?
34:48yep
34:48apparently sources let him know
34:52that Jabot is not the kind of sitting duck
34:56that I thought it was
34:57why not?
34:59what have they done?
34:59well
35:00seems Chuck Abbott has
35:03saw some counter moves
35:05to protect his company from a cyber attack
35:07what sort of counter moves?
35:14you shut down Jabot
35:16hey one more thing
35:26tell me we can believe in this right?
35:29this isn't too good to be true
35:30what do you mean the idea
35:32that the great Victor Newman
35:33is finally on the table?
35:35exactly
35:35I mean I love the fact
35:37that you're three steps ahead here
35:39I mean wouldn't it be amazing
35:40this never-ending roller coaster
35:42plays out with Victor Newman going to prison
35:45long overdue comeuppance is finally upon him
35:47I'd say yeah
35:48we can only hope so
35:49his biggest weakness
35:52is that he thinks he doesn't have a weakness
35:54if all goes according to plan
35:55he will never see this coming
35:57when he does come
35:58he's not going to know what hit him
36:00revenge is so sweet
36:03can I pour you another cup?
36:17yeah thank you
36:18great
36:19listen um
36:23I know how awkward

37:03that we are alone
37:06and we have this opportunity
37:08to have a private talk
37:11I think it's time
37:14that we get
37:15a few things straight

37:27dad
37:27yeah
37:27getting a room
37:28under your
37:29and seeing his name
37:29could be used as a decoy
37:30just in case Matt
37:31comes searching for you
37:32which you know we will
37:33then we use the room
37:35to set a trap for him
