03:43uh
03:45uh
03:47Oh, I didn't realize Noah lived so large.
04:11This is some house.
04:13It's almost as big as mine.
04:15Really?
04:17Seriously, though, I always thought that living in a family compound would be kind of creepy,
04:24but it seems like you all really love being with each other.
04:28I hope you realize there's my money and power that's behind this lifestyle that saved your ass.
04:41I do.
04:42I realize that.
04:45Remember it.
04:45I wish I'd keep an eye on you.
04:49I'm sorry.
04:57That did not come out the way that I meant.
05:01I get a little sarcastic sometimes.
05:03It's kind of like a nervous tick.
05:06Charming treat.
05:07Honestly, I am very grateful to you and your family for helping me.
05:12I'm really sorry if it sounded like I wasn't.
05:14I know that your act of kindness probably saved my life, and you bringing me here to Genoa City was beyond generous.
05:25So, thank you again.
05:27You're welcome.
05:29Just watch your step.
05:34Excuse me.
05:35You gave us all quite a scare, you know.
05:41I'm sorry to worry, everyone, but I am fine now.
05:44I'm just so glad that you're here and almost back to your old handsome self.
05:49Well, if people keep telling this dude he's handsome, it's going to go to his head.
05:53Yeah, well, not with Dad around to keep me humble.
05:55And I really can't begin to tell you how much it meant to me that you and Aunt Victoria came all the way to L.A. just to check on me.
06:02Darling, I would go to the ends of the earth for you.
06:06And don't forget about your cousin Claire.
06:08She came to see you, too.
06:09Yeah, well, technically, you were unconscious when I visited, so there's no way you would remember.
06:14I don't know.
06:14I'm getting kind of a familiar vibe from you.
06:16Like, maybe somewhere deep inside, I felt your presence.
06:19I knew it.
06:20I knew that everyone talking to you and visiting was getting through.
06:25I am convinced that's what helped him heal.
06:27Maybe I do remember you being there.
06:30Regardless, it's nice if I only get to meet you in person, officially.
06:33And you, too.
06:34Cuz.
06:34Hey, everyone, um, there's someone else I'd like you to meet.
06:43This is my friend Sienna, visiting from Los Angeles.
06:46I hope you'll all make her feel very welcome.
06:49Sienna?
06:51From the shadow room?
06:53Sienna?
06:54Well, you don't recognize me if I'm not buying you a vest, but you're some.
06:58What are you doing in Genoa City?
07:04Are you sure you're fine with it?
07:09Playing the role of number two?
07:11I'm more than fine with it.
07:13And I am so excited that our retro launch party is happening tonight.
07:16Abit Communications is a reality.
07:19A media company based on truth, integrity.
07:22It's an increasingly rare commodity in this world.
07:24You're right.
07:25I just want to make sure that people don't think that our retro theme is how we're going to operate
07:30because we are unfettered by antiquated roles.
07:33So you're saying a woman's place is in the boardroom?
07:36That's damn right what I'm saying.
07:37Yours in particular.
07:38Okay, all joking aside, though, we are co-CEOs.
07:41Are you sure you're okay with everyone seeing me as your equal?
07:44Absolutely not.
07:45No, because you are more talented and more creative than I am.
07:49And more importantly, you're more disciplined than I am.
07:53You're my better half, Sally.
07:56Wow.
07:57Love and the positivity.
07:58You bring it out of me.
08:01Well, it means the world that you believe in me and Abit Communications.
08:04A thousand percent.
08:06And I know my resume doesn't stack up against other CEOs, but I promise you, I am up for the task.
08:10Oh, I know you are.
08:11And I appreciate your confidence.
08:13And let's be honest, if I was running this company and people would be waiting for my downfall,
08:17I wouldn't trust the potential success of this company.
08:21Okay, well, don't doubt this, okay?
08:24You and me?
08:25Because whoever thinks that way, we're going to prove to them just how wrong they are.
08:30Okay.
08:38Now what?
08:39Is everything okay?
08:39Uh, oh.
08:40Oh, hi.
08:42Hi.
08:43Nice of you to come by.
08:44Yeah, I just wanted to wish you both much success with the launch tonight.
08:49I'll be rooting for you.
08:51I know you're both going to knock it out of the park.
08:55I really appreciate that.
08:58Uh, yeah, I'm going to have to take this, okay?
09:01Excuse me for a second.
09:02Good to see you, Adra.
09:03Hello?
09:03What is this?
09:07You know, just a little good luck present for my bestie.
09:12Okay.
09:13You shouldn't have.
09:14Well, this is a special day for you.
09:16Hey, and I just wanted to get you something special to commemorate it.
09:20Okay, go on.
09:21Open it.
09:22I promise you, you won't be disappointed.
09:28Okay.
09:30People talk about honor and decency in business.
09:33When my dad started Jabot, a man's word was worth something.
09:38Deals were made with a handshake.
09:40Nowadays, if you reach out your hand, you might just lose a limb.
09:44Yeah, sadly, that has always been the way with Victor.
09:47He and people like him treat a civilized gentleman's agreement like a blood sport.
09:53I expect Victor will make his move soon.
09:55At least, I hope so, because now we're ready for him.
09:58I hope you're right.
10:00We have done everything we can to defend Jabot, and all that's left is the waiting game.
10:05I've got to admit, suspense is killing me.
10:08Uh, careful what you wish for.
10:10I have a feeling his attack is imminent.
10:13And once he makes his move, it will all play out very quickly.
10:17And for us, losing is not an option.
10:27On to another subject.
10:28Uh, Claire seemed pretty upset when Diane and I saw you both here yesterday.
10:33Upset is an understatement.
10:35Claire has had it with Audra.
10:37Actually, we both have.
10:39That's understandable, given what I know of her stunts when we were all trapped in Nice,
10:44uh, colluding with Victor to break the two of you up.
10:47Hey, she needed an investor for a new company.
10:50Yeah, that's when she lost me.
10:51Yeah, she's actually even worse now, if you can believe that.
10:54God, you'd think she would learn her lesson and just back off,
10:57especially when this dangerous game she was playing with you blew up in her face.
11:01Certainly, she learned nothing.
11:03Well, she lost everything.
11:05Not just the job opportunity Victor promised her, but now her relationship with Nate.
11:11Yeah, I may have won that game, but I lost something, too.
11:15Yeah, Claire's trusting me, and I have no one to blame but myself.
11:18Well, I have some hope in seeing the two of you share a drink here earlier, even if she was upset.
11:24I mean, she wasn't upset with you.
11:26Yeah.
11:27I'm clinging to the hope that I can find some way to earn back her trust.
11:32I'm glad you haven't given up.
11:35Hang in there.
11:37The irony is, the way back into Claire's good graces may turn out to be through Audra Charles.
11:47A travel book?
11:50To an island in Greece?
11:52Yes.
11:53Lemnos Island.
11:55Okay, you said this was a good luck gift, but the only vacation I'm going to be taking is if our company fails.
11:59So, is there something that I don't know that you do?
12:03Do you remember what we talked about before you decided to recommit to Billy and Abbott Communications?
12:09We talked about a lot of things.
12:11Yes, including creating a future where, you know, it didn't depend on the egotistical whims of the male species.
12:19Yes, how could I forget?
12:21Okay, well, in Greek mythology, in the story of Jason and the Argonauts,
12:25Lemnos was the island the sailors landed on that was entirely populated by and ruled by women.
12:31Mm-hmm.
12:32Because they killed all the men.
12:35You know the story?
12:36Well, it was a lucky guess.
12:37No, I watched a PBS documentary.
12:40Those women were no joke.
12:41Right?
12:41Yeah.
12:42See, the thing I love about Lemnos is that it was ruled by these Amazon-like women.
12:49Now, I know Billy promised to let you steer the Abbott Communications ship,
12:54but just in case he goes back on his word and you need to murder him,
12:59now you know of a place you can run off to where you won't be judged.
13:02And I promise you, I won't tell a soul where you are.
13:06Well, thank you.
13:08I appreciate that.
13:09I mean, served umbrella drinks by Amazons does sound like a wonderful escape,
13:12but I don't think I will need to flee the jurisdiction anytime soon
13:16because Billy does have my back.
13:18So do I.
13:20I really hate that I'm not able to do this with you.
13:24Yeah.
13:26We are a couple of badass Amazons ourselves.
13:30I'm so sorry.
13:32I know we would have made a great team.
13:33But, you know, it's not forever.
13:37It's just not yet.
13:39Just don't even go there tonight.
13:41It's not about me.
13:42It's about you.
13:46You and Billy think alike because he just said the same thing to me.
13:50I'm just happy to see my best friend succeed.
13:53Well, I am happy that I have a best friend like you.
13:59I just wanted to give you all your space.
14:01I didn't want to interrupt your family reunion.
14:03I wanted to give you your moment.
14:06Yes, Mother, this is Sienna from the shadow room.
14:09I see my reputation precedes me.
14:12Yeah, Grandma, I'm sure that I mentioned Sienna.
14:14It was her club that I spent so much time at in L.A.
14:17And Holden introduced us.
14:20Well, that doesn't really answer our question.
14:23What are you doing here in Genoa City?
14:26Oh, Noah!
14:29What's up, man?
14:30Oh, it's so good to have you home.
14:32Thank God you're okay.
14:33We've been praying for you, hoping for a speedy recovery.
14:36I definitely felt all the love and support.
14:38And, oh, this is my friend Sienna from L.A.
14:41Sienna, this is my uncle Adam.
14:42Oh.
14:43And his partner, Chelsea.
14:43Thanks.
14:44Oh, partner.
14:45Partner as in, oh, you know, work, life.
14:50Nice.
14:50Very nice to meet you.
14:51Me too.
14:52Now that you're here, I'd like to tell you all why I asked you to come.
14:58Most importantly, I want you all to welcome Noah.
15:02Yeah.
15:03All in one piece.
15:04Welcome home, Noah.
15:05Secondly, I've got to make all of you aware that there's someone out there who's targeting our family.
15:17It's a serious business.
15:22I knew you were keeping something from me.
15:32What has happened?
15:34Sure, there's some information that Nick Sheridan and I have been holding back.
15:38Yeah?
15:39We didn't want to worry you unnecessarily until we knew for sure.
15:42Okay, what is it?
15:44Matt Clark is alive.
15:46What?
15:47How can that be?
15:49It's true, Mom.
15:49We don't know how he did it, but he reinvented himself as this new club owner from L.A., but
15:56he has the same old vendetta against me and Sharon.
15:59And he's my husband.
16:01Although I didn't know him as Matt Clark, only Mitch Bacall, and I didn't find out he
16:05was violent until just now.
16:07I'm sorry.
16:07Who is Matt Clark?
16:09He is a horrible, disgusting man who has done horrendous, unspeakable things.
16:15He attacked me.
16:17He framed Nicholas for murder.
16:19His murder.
16:20Which is why we thought he was dead.
16:22His hatred of Nicholas and me goes all the way back to our high school days.
16:27He's been carrying around a grudge ever since.
16:30He will use anything or anyone near us or peripherally to exact his revenge.
16:38He is a threat that we all need to take seriously.
16:43It's true.
16:44Sure, he befriended me and he's the whole reason I was in L.A.
16:46But now we know for sure that he's responsible for the crash and almost killed me.
16:49Yeah, I pretty much proved that when he locked the two of us up and threatened to kill me
16:53if Noah didn't take fentanyl.
16:55Oh my God.
16:56What?
16:56Use me to try to hurt Mom and Dad.
16:59And this guy hasn't been apprehended yet?
17:01Afraid not.
17:01Okay, just a minute.
17:03I'm having trouble getting my mind around this.
17:07Matt Clark was supposed to be dead years ago and now you're saying that he has a new identity?
17:15As if it wasn't bad enough the last time he got away with it.
17:18I mean, why hasn't he been arrested?
17:20Well, they got close.
17:21There's an APB out for him, but they haven't found him yet.
17:24He's got to be stopped.
17:26Yes, and he will, along with his accomplice, this dirty cop from L.A. named Annie.
17:31Nicholas and I have a plan for the bastard.
17:34Victor, that sounds dangerous.
17:36Can't you let the police handle it?
17:38No.
17:40I'll tell you this, if Matt Clark is as smart as he thinks he is,
17:45he'll get the hell out of town on his own.
17:47He is smart, but he's also insane.
17:50And he clearly knows how to hold a grudge,
17:52so let's just hope that he's not on his way to Genoa City to try to finish what he started.
18:03Excuse me, do you mind taking this in the back, please?
18:06Awesome.
18:07Okay, look, I promise, once Abbott Communications gets up and running,
18:11I will find a way to bring you on board.
18:14I appreciate how determined you are to get me in,
18:17but I don't want to put you in an awkward or compromising position with your investor.
18:22Hey, you let me worry about that, okay?
18:25It's all going to work out.
18:26I promise.
18:27Yeah, I think it will, one way or another.
18:31But I actually like my chances at Abbott Communications
18:33because I have a suspicion that your investor is a woman.
18:38I never confirmed that.
18:41You never denied it.
18:43Why, and that helps your case because all women love you?
18:47Ouch, I'm taking my book back.
18:49Hey, what kind of Amazon woman can't take a joke?
18:52Okay, good one.
18:53Good afternoon, ladies.
18:57Hi.
18:57Hi, Sally.
18:58How's it going?
18:59Are you ready for the night?
19:00Yeah, I've been ready since the first time we planned it.
19:02Excited?
19:03I'm excited, yeah.
19:04I'm a little nervous, but a good kind of nervous.
19:08Sorry, Sally, but I really do have to take off.
19:10Look, I am rooting for you,
19:12and just know that I am wishing you the best of luck tonight.
19:15You're still coming, right?
19:17I don't know.
19:17I don't think that's a good idea.
19:21No, I think it's a great idea.
19:23You absolutely should attend.
19:25How can you not be here to support your one and only friend?
19:34I hate to say it, but there's a definite possibility
19:36that Matt Clark shows up in Genoa City.
19:38He is that insane.
19:40And you think he would come all the way from Los Angeles
19:42just to go after you?
19:44I mean, he would take that risk,
19:46knowing he's a wanted man.
19:47I wouldn't put anything past him.
19:50He thinks that he can outsmart everyone,
19:52and so far, he has.
19:54I'm asking all of you to take this very seriously.
19:57You've all been through so much with Noah's car crash,
20:00and now you have to deal with this nightmare.
20:01I'm really sorry.
20:04On the bright side, I know Connor's excited to see his cousin.
20:06I can't wait to see all my cousins.
20:08I didn't realize how much I missed Genoa City
20:09until I drove onto the ranch.
20:11You know, horseback riding, holidays.
20:13It's good to be home.
20:15All right.
20:16I should probably get going.
20:18I have to get ready for the lunch party,
20:20and then Katie actually asked me
20:21to help her get ready for the dance.
20:22So, love you.
20:23Yeah, we'll follow you out.
20:24We want to get Noah and Sienna settled in down at Sharon's.
20:29Love you, Mom.
20:30Love you, too.
20:31Love you guys.
20:32Bye.
20:33Good to see you.
20:34You, too.
20:35Nice to know you're home, Noah.
20:37Good to be home.
20:38Are Noah and Sienna together?
20:46No.
20:47Well, I would hate to speculate on the nature of their relationship,
20:51but, um...
20:53You know, the Sienna is married to this Matt Clarke guy
20:57that we just talked about.
20:59And I'm keeping an eye on the situation.
21:02I hope there won't be anything for you to see.
21:06I assume you're not going to this launch party tonight?
21:09No.
21:10I have more important things to do.
21:13Oh.
21:14And what do you have to do that's more important?
21:26Yes, you're right, Kyle.
21:28It would be nice to be able to support my friend.
21:31You know, it's a shame you had to couch that sentiment
21:33to your usual snark, taking an easy shot at me.
21:36Wrong again, Andra.
21:37I was being so sincere.
21:40As far as taking shots at you,
21:43I've decided it's not worth the time or energy.
21:45Yeah, yeah, here you are, burning both on my behalf.
21:47So, feel free to go on with your life.
21:49And I'll go on with mine, and Claire can go on with hers.
21:52Yeah, like I need your permission.
21:55You know, it's too bad that those lives
21:57you and your ex are moving on to are not together.
22:00I'm not surprised Claire decided to move away from you forever.
22:04Okay, there you go again.
22:05Running your mouth about a subject
22:07you know absolutely nothing about.
22:09Things have changed.
22:10I'll have to see it to believe it.
22:12But more than likely, what I'll see is your desperation.
22:14And then I'll have the pleasure
22:16of watching you make a fool of yourself again.
22:18Okay, I think I've heard enough from both of you.
22:20He's worrisome.
22:24Look, I can't wait to hear how tonight goes.
22:28Will you please reconsider coming?
22:31I'll see.
22:33This may be your night,
22:34but it's still the Avid's party.
22:36Is everything okay?
22:47Yeah.
22:47Mm-hmm.
22:48Better than okay.
22:49Okay, good.
22:50Jack, Kyle?
22:51Avid Communications branding is great.
22:53Love the new logo.
22:54It just pops.
22:55Are you sure Kane's not going to try
22:56to pull another fast one?
22:58I'm not worried about Kane anymore.
23:00Good.
23:01Kane is no longer a threat.
23:02Victor is.
23:07Darling, my work tonight
23:08does nothing for you to be concerned about, all right?
23:11Meaning that you're keeping something else from me.
23:14You know, I am capable of receiving difficult news
23:18without falling apart,
23:19but nobody in this family will give me any credit for that.
23:22Well, I don't feel that way at all.
23:24No, we know how tough you are, Nikki.
23:26I mean, you of all people.
23:28You should know that.
23:30So, are you ready to come clean with me?
23:33What are you talking about?
23:35There's nothing to come clean about, all right?
23:38Don't you worry about a damn thing.
23:41Are you going to the party tonight?
23:43I haven't decided yet.
23:45Well, we're both gonna go.
23:48We're gonna go check out our new so-called competition.
23:52We'll make sure to fill you in.
23:53Well, kindly spare me the play-by-play, all right?
23:58Sure.
24:01I should get going.
24:02I want to get ready, okay?
24:03Okay.
24:04See you later.
24:07Bye, Victor.
24:07Chelsea, nice to see you.
24:09You too.
24:09All right.
24:10So, are you ready to release the AI program into the Chippo system?
24:27So, you want to pull the trigger?
24:31You want to do it while everyone's busy at the launch party?
24:34Yeah.
24:37Jack Abbott will go down tonight.
24:45Here it is.
24:46Home sweet home.
24:47I can't tell you how good it is to hear those words from you.
24:54Wow.
24:55This place is so quaint.
24:58I mean, it's just so much more intimate than your grandparents' house.
25:05I mean, don't get me wrong.
25:07The house is gorgeous.
25:08It's just, you know, slightly intimidating.
25:10Well, maybe it is the owner of the home and not the decor that seems slightly intimidating.
25:19Yeah.
25:20Well, I can feel that this place is very warm and welcoming.
25:25I always thought so, too.
25:27I might be a bit biased since this is the house I grew up in.
25:31Can I get you two something to eat or drink?
25:34Oh, I am starving.
25:36Ah, yeah.
25:36I wouldn't say no to a cracker.
25:37Well, I think I can hustle up a sandwich or two.
25:46Thanks.
25:48You and your family.
25:50Wow, you, uh, you seem very tight, huh?
25:54We've had our moments.
25:55Yeah, but, you know, when push comes to shove, we're all about family.
25:59Hmm.
26:00Must be nice.
26:01You know, knowing you've got people who will support you and love you and look out for you no matter what, huh?
26:09Unconditional love, right?
26:12It's not so common in my world, so you should feel very lucky.
26:15I do.
26:16I do.
26:18Even more so since the accident.
26:20Yeah.
26:20They all just came to your rescue.
26:22I guess this must be a little awkward for you.
26:26Uh, yeah, you know?
26:28Yeah.
26:28I'm gonna admit that, you know, I definitely feel a bit like an intruder.
26:32I realize everyone's pretending they're okay with my being here, but, uh, I feel the underlying tension.
26:39Especially from your grandmother.
26:41Hey, hey, both of my grandparents are extremely overprotective.
26:47All right, but don't worry, they'll chill out once they get to know you better.
26:51I'm sure you'll feel the same once you get to know them.
26:53They really are very special people.
26:55Yeah, no doubt.
26:57No doubt.
26:57And I really am very grateful to them for letting me stay here until the cops are able to arrest me.
27:05Matt.
27:08Butts.
27:11But I'm still just not sure that coming here was the right call.
27:16It was absolutely the right call, okay?
27:20You're safe here.
27:22I don't have to worry about you.
27:23Nobody can get to you on the compound or anywhere else in Genoa City, for that matter, okay?
27:29Not while you're with me.
27:30So tonight is the night, huh?
27:57Yeah?
28:02You don't seem terribly excited.
28:05Oh, no, I'm very much looking forward to seeing the look on Billy's face when his launch party blows up.
28:13Wait a minute.
28:14I thought you were looking forward to seeing Jack Abbott and Jabbaugh upended.
28:19Dad, my beef isn't with Jack.
28:30That man who's financing a company is coming after you and Numa Media.
28:35What are you talking about?
28:36You know that Jack is not the financier of Billy's new company any longer, okay?
28:41It's a lot more complicated than that now.
28:53Yes.
28:57Hmm.
28:59That's interesting.
29:00All right, I'll see you.
29:05Who was that?
29:08That was Michael Baldwin.
29:13He says he has some news that interests both of us.
29:18Sorry, I didn't mean to, uh...
29:27No, no, no.
29:29Um, any updates?
29:32Um, ranch security is on high alert.
29:34Everybody is safe out here.
29:35Very good.
29:36Here, eat up, you two.
29:38Thank you, thank you.
29:39Wow.
29:39You keep my favorite cookies on hand?
29:41You're not the only one who enjoys them, you know.
29:45Oh, thank you.
29:46This looks so beautiful.
29:46Once you grab that to go, bud, you're with me.
29:50Where are we going?
29:51Need your help with something.
29:53Gonna work on some diversionary tactics just in case Matt shows up.
29:57Sounds good.
29:59Be careful.
30:01We will.
30:02Back soon?
30:03You promise?
30:05Don't worry, okay?
30:06You'll be safe here on the ranch.
30:07I wouldn't leave you for a minute if I was worried.
30:10Okay.
30:10Well, good luck.
30:11You stay safe too, all right?
30:16Well, I guess it's just us ladies.
30:32I'm not worried about Victor ruining the launch of our company.
30:36You should be worried about Victor.
30:38The man cannot be trusted.
30:40We have no idea what he's going to do next.
30:42Now, I hope you've taken some precautions at Appet Communications.
30:44We have.
30:45Tonight's going to go off without a hitch.
30:46I guarantee that.
30:47Billy filled me in on the AI thread and Jabot's course of action that you're taking a response to it.
30:52Are you worried about Victor coming after your company before it even has a chance to get off the ground?
30:57I'm not too concerned about Appet Communications, just because we're just launching and we have a lot less in the way of assets for anyone to want to go after.
31:04We're a lot less vulnerable and exposed to that sort of threat.
31:06But still, I think it's...
31:07We have taken every precaution to protect our systems.
31:10If you'll excuse me, I actually have a call with our IT team about that very thing.
31:14Of course you do, because you're in control.
31:15Yes.
31:18Well, it looks like you're making some great changes in your life.
31:23I'm trying.
31:24Oh, you're doing a good job.
31:25No, not long ago, you would have had to control every detail of the whole thing.
31:31It says to me that, well, you're taking this whole opportunity seriously.
31:36You're changing the way you do things.
31:37Well, I trust Sally.
31:39And she needs to know that we can do this together and it doesn't have to be about me.
31:42Sounds like you're on the right path to success.
31:45So what's going on with Jabot?
31:47Any new details you want to share?
31:48Our save Jabot plan is underway.
31:51And we're not just playing defense.
31:53Diane is overseeing a counter move to Victor's attack.
31:57I like the sound of that.
31:58She is working with our IT team to plant some rather cunning traps
32:02that not only detect the AI program's intrusion,
32:05but also lead back to the source.
32:07Victor.
32:08And we will be able to expose all of his illegal activity.
32:11He'll get what he deserves.
32:12It's brilliant.
32:12If things go as planned,
32:14and God willing,
32:14we will never have to deal with Victor Newman again.
32:26Did Michael tell you what he found out?
32:29Yep.
32:30Panty sources let him know that Jabot is not the kind of sitting duck that I thought it was.
32:39Why not?
32:39What have they done?
32:41Well,
32:42Seamstruck Abbott has
32:43found some counter moves
32:46to protect his company from a cyber attack.
32:50What sort of counter moves?
32:54He'll shut down Jabot.
32:55Hey,
33:05one more thing.
33:06Tell me we can believe in this, right?
33:08This isn't too good to be true.
33:10What do you mean?
33:10The idea that the great Victor Newman is finally on the table?
33:13Exactly.
33:15I mean,
33:15I love the fact that you're three steps ahead here.
33:17I mean,
33:17wouldn't it be amazing?
33:19This never-ending roller coaster plays out with Victor Newman going to prison.
33:23Long overdue comeuppance is finally upon him.
33:25I'd say,
33:25yeah,
33:25we can only hope so.
33:28His biggest weakness is that he thinks he doesn't have a weakness.
33:31If all goes according to plan,
33:33he will never see this coming.
33:34When it does come,
33:35he's not going to know what hit him.
33:37Benj is so sweet.
33:50Can I pour you another cup?
33:53Yeah,
33:53thank you.
33:54Great.
33:55Listen,
33:57um,
33:58I know how awkward this is for everyone taking me in.
34:03The wife of the man who tormented you for so long.
34:07You are not responsible for the things that he did long ago.
34:13Yeah,
34:13listen,
34:13I swear,
34:14I didn't know.
34:15And I just can't believe all the horrible things that Mitch,
34:20Matt did.
34:23And I'm really sorry for all the trauma he's caused you and your family.
34:27I really appreciate that sentiment,
34:31and now that we are alone and we have this opportunity to have a private talk,
34:42I think it's time that we get a few things straight.
34:47This is a good idea,
34:57Dan.
34:57Yeah,
34:58getting a room under Yoran Siena's name could be used as a decoy just in case Matt comes searching for you.
35:03Which you know he will.
35:03Then we use the room to set a trap for him.
35:06Let's do it.
35:07Let's do it.
35:37Let's do it.
36:07Join us again for the young and the restless.
36:28Let's do it.
36:29Let's do it.
36:30Let's do it.
36:31Let's do it.
36:32Let's do it.
36:33Let's do it.
36:34Let's do it.
36:35Let's do it.
36:36Let's do it.
36:37Let's do it.
36:38Let's do it.
36:39Let's do it.
36:40Let's do it.
36:41Let's do it.
36:42Let's do it.
36:43Let's do it.
36:44Let's do it.
36:45Let's do it.
36:46Let's do it.
36:47Let's do it.
36:48Let's do it.
36:49Let's do it.
36:50Let's do it.
36:51Let's do it.
36:52Let's do it.
36:53Let's do it.
