01:57Last time I sat in that chair I was stabbed in the back
02:00By someone near and dear to me
02:04Someone who claimed to love me
02:08That's not gonna happen again
02:21Chancellor Industries
02:23You are mine
02:27And mine alone
02:44It's like you're back where you belong
02:47Hi
02:50What are you doing here?
02:52Would you like me to leave?
02:54No
02:55No, of course not
02:58It's really nice to see you
03:02So does this mean you better change your heart?
03:28So does this mean you better change your heart?
03:42Seeing you better change your heart?
03:43Seeing you back behind the counter almost makes life seem normal again
03:46You know, I felt the same way myself
03:49After the whirlwind of the past two months
03:54Peppermint hot chocolate, right?
03:56Wow, I can't believe you actually remember that with everything you've been through lately
04:00We have all really been through it lately, haven't we?
04:05Unfortunately, it's not over yet
04:08How are things where the takeover is concerned?
04:11We're still holding out hope that we can reverse this mess
04:15Actually, that's why I stopped by
04:16I thought I might run into Nick
04:18I called him last night, but he hasn't returned my call
04:21My brother's been a little preoccupied lately
04:25I heard that Matt Clark has been released
04:27I hope that Nick is not out trying to track that monster down
04:31Honestly, we wouldn't know where to find him
04:34The only contact we have had with Matt is a series of threatening texts he sent to Noah
04:40What?
04:41Is he back in Genoa City?
04:42We have no idea
04:43For all we know
04:44He could be in LA playing mind games trying to make us think that he's here
04:48I'm so sorry
04:49This is so upsetting
04:51Knowing that that madman is out on the streets
04:55Well, Nick said it last night and he was right
04:57This is the last thing that any of us needs right now
05:01I don't suppose that Nick has mentioned that I asked him to fly to Milan with me
05:04To enlist somewhere to help us in this war with Phyllis
05:07Yes, he mentioned it
05:10Well, I don't think I'm going to be able to tear him away now
05:13With this new turn of events
05:15Nick is devastated with what happened at Newman
05:19But he is very single-minded when it comes to finding Matt
05:24And stopping him from torturing his family
05:26As he should be
05:27That man has caused his family a lot of damage
05:30Nick hasn't even fully recovered from the injury that Matt caused during his last reign of terror
06:05If you look at him like him or something or something, or anything like that
06:20Продолжение следует...
06:36I hired Audra to work for me.
06:40But this time, as my co-CEO.
06:43Spend me your objections, look on your face, speaks volumes.
06:46Will you allow me to play devil's advocate?
06:49No, I don't care what you think.
06:50And I've already cleared Audra's hiring with Jill.
06:53Did she improve this time?
06:54She did, yeah.
06:55She said that she fully supports my decision.
07:00Well, I know you're going to do amazing things at Abba Communications,
07:03no matter who you hire to work for you.
07:06I agree.
07:07And I believe that Audra will be instrumental in making the company a success.
07:14I think you're right.
07:16I also want you to know that it is no longer called Abba Communications.
07:22When did that happen?
07:24When I changed the name to Spectre Charles.
07:28I also want to thank you for securing Newman Media for us.
07:32That acquisition will be very helpful in getting Spectre Charles off the ground and running.
07:38It's an interesting way to thank me.
07:41Changing the name, it's a little shocking to hear that Abba Communications will not be the title of the company.
07:46Well, it's not my last name.
07:48You're no longer with the company, so it's no longer an Abba entity.
07:52Well, that's not 100% true of me.
07:54My mother is still a sole investor.
07:56Okay.
07:56Well, I mean, if you want to take it up with Jill, feel free.
07:59I don't.
07:59I get it.
08:02I'm not going to argue the inevitable.
08:04Thank you.
08:07Well, that's all.
08:09Sally.
08:15Look, it's my fault.
08:17Okay, it's my fault our professional relationship is over.
08:21But it doesn't mean that our personal relationship has to follow suit.
08:25I miss you.
08:28I do, and I don't understand why a professional disagreement has to ruin a damn near-perfect relationship.
08:41You have dinner with me?
08:44I really don't think this is good.
08:46Please, just dinner.
08:48Just give me one chance to try and convince you not to give up on us.
08:54I'm waiting.
08:57For what?
08:58The punchline.
08:59The declaration of your support.
09:02This is no joke.
09:04I'm here to congratulate you.
09:06You have achieved the impossible.
09:09You knocked Victor Newman off of his throne, and in doing so, became one of the most powerful
09:16women in the world.
09:18This is an immense victory, and right or wrong, you should be commended for the sheer audacity
09:26of pulling this thing off.
09:29Do you mean that?
09:30Yes, I absolutely do.
09:34Yes, I absolutely do.
09:35Okay.
09:37Well, you might be the only one.
09:40I mean, no one else has noticed that.
09:43Look, I'm trying not to take sides.
09:47I'm going to try and stay neutral.
09:49Okay, well, I'll take neutral.
09:51I will.
09:52Over outrage.
09:55I hear Daniel isn't very happy with you.
09:58Yeah, he is not speaking to me at the moment.
10:01Does that mean summer too?
10:03Hmm, summer too.
10:05Yeah.
10:05I think they think their silent treatment will make me realize that, uh, my decision was
10:12wrong.
10:13That, I mean, you know, I did this for them.
10:16You know that.
10:18I mean, I did it for me, of course, but I did it for my kids.
10:23You know that.
10:24For the future.
10:26Well, maybe in time they'll know that.
10:29Eh, maybe in time.
10:31I don't know.
10:32Well, it's just really hard to enjoy the victory when they just think it's just a horrible
10:38decision, so.
10:39Well, the last thing you need is someone else just piling on you, right?
10:44Yeah.
10:45Right.
10:47Uh, anyway, I'd love to talk, but I have a lot of work to do right now, so.
10:58You know.
11:02I hear it's lonely at the top.
11:06I haven't noticed that.
11:08Yeah?
11:09Well, if you ever do notice, I'm available.
11:15CEO to CEO, friend to friend.
11:18Or if you ever start having second thoughts about...
11:21Well, I wouldn't have second thoughts.
11:22Why would I do that?
11:23You know why?
11:24Because you have a heart.
11:28You don't like to cause people pain.
11:31And that heart...
11:34...still loves Nick.
11:36And wouldn't want to hurt him intentionally, or the daughter that you share with him.
11:41And Sharon, I mean, that friendship that you've forged with her, which is very unlikely,
11:47has got to be on shaky ground right now.
11:51And knowing your heart, I would be very surprised if you didn't have even the slightest remorse.
12:01Whether you want to admit it or not.
12:07Sometimes he seems like he's fine.
12:09You know, he's not in any pain at all.
12:11But then other times, it seems like he's agitated and he can hardly hide how much it hurts.
12:17I think he gets that way when the meds start to wear off.
12:21But I'm a little nervous about him getting dependent on these painkillers his doctor prescribed for him.
12:27Do you think it's something we should be worried about?
12:30I hope not.
12:32Good.
12:34He requested a new refill before the last bottle even ran out.
12:41I know that it hasn't been that long since the surgery.
12:44And I know that pain pills, that's a necessary evil.
12:48I'm just worried because pain seems to come back so quickly after the meds wear off.
12:54I think that Nick should probably talk to his doctor.
12:57Maybe there's something else going on that needs to be addressed.
13:00I tried to convince him to have it checked out, but he refused.
13:04And now, with Matt Clark resurfacing, Nick taking care of himself, that'll be the last thing on his mind.
13:28He's a nice man.
13:37He's a nice man.
13:39He's a nice man.
13:41He's a nice man.
13:42He's a nice man.
13:43And now, with Matt Clark, give up a few minutes, you can say he's a nice man,
13:44but he should be the last thing on his mind.
13:44I can see him all that he thinks he's on his nose.
13:46He's on his nose.
13:52НАПРЯЖЕННАЯ МУЗЫКА
14:28Don't... don't do this, Billy.
14:31Just give me a chance.
14:33You made a clean break
14:35when you chose to run Chancellor over building a life with me.
14:38Let's not go backwards.
14:39I'm not asking for a lifetime commitment.
14:41I'm simply asking to have dinner with you.
14:42Just one night.
14:45Come on, you can't say no to your favor.
14:47I'm alone and a perfectly cooked filet mignon just the way you like it.
14:49Okay, stop.
14:50I'm just getting started.
14:51Yeah, I'm sure you are.
14:53But it's really not going to make a difference, okay?
14:55After everything that we've been through,
14:57our problems are not going to be solved
14:58with a bottle of wine and a rare steak.
15:00Well, we don't know unless we try, right?
15:03Come on, I know.
15:04It's my fault that our professional relationship
15:06had to come to an end.
15:07I get it.
15:08That door's closed.
15:08I understand.
15:09But that doesn't mean that our personal relationship
15:12has to come to an end, too.
15:13It wasn't just business, Billy.
15:16You're right.
15:16Maybe it doesn't have to be.
15:18We can flip the perspective.
15:20We can hold on to what we have
15:22away from Chancellor and...
15:25Spectre Charles.
15:27Look, bottom line is,
15:28you can't deny how good we are together.
15:30We were.
15:32One dinner.
15:34If I can't convince you to give us another shot,
15:36then you can look at it as a final goodbye.
15:41Okay.
15:42One dinner.
15:43That's it.
15:44Nothing more.
15:44Great.
15:45I highly doubt that you're going to say anything
15:47that I haven't already heard or I don't know.
15:49So the odds of you changing my mind about anything
15:51are slim to none.
15:53I'll call you.
15:55With the time and place.
15:58Okay.
16:08You know,
16:09I'm not sure what my friendship with Sharon
16:11has anything to do with this.
16:13I mean, she's not really close to Victor right now.
16:16Well,
16:17she may not be Team Victor,
16:19but you know what?
16:22If she's given the choice between
16:24standing next to Nick and anyone else,
16:27she's going to choose Nick.
16:29Oh, of course Sharon's going to choose Nick.
16:31Of course.
16:32Please.
16:35Why can't anyone be Team Phyllis?
16:38I mean,
16:39I think my kids are having a problem with that.
16:43Having a problem?
16:44I mean,
16:45do you feel like they're going to come around?
16:47Well,
16:48if they can forgive me for faking my own death,
16:50I think that they can forgive me for going after and achieving my goals.
16:58I think they can.
16:59But it seems like they've been brainwashed by this Newman propaganda machine.
17:03It is amazing to me how that family spins everything to make it look like they're the wrong party.
17:10Well,
17:11you know,
17:11I'm trying not to take sides,
17:14but I have
17:15definitely had my issues with Victor.
17:18And I know this means a lot to you.
17:21Especially with the way that Victor has treated you in the past.
17:24Oh,
17:24God,
17:24especially.
17:25I'm sure he's decided that he's the one who's been betrayed and that I'm the one who owes something to
17:35him.
17:35I'm sure he's already saying that to people.
17:39I mean,
17:40truth be told,
17:42he has been generous on occasion with you.
17:45Um,
17:45okay,
17:46wait,
17:46no,
17:46no,
17:46no,
17:46you need to stop talking right now.
17:48Please don't.
17:50Are you sure you're on my side?
17:53Has Michael gotten to you?
17:54No,
17:55no.
17:57I certainly remember all the times that Victor was not your champion.
18:01And you know,
18:02by the way,
18:02that goes for Nick as well,
18:04who has ridden to your rescue on occasion,
18:06but never when Victor has gone after your livelihood or your happiness.
18:13You know,
18:14Nick came to me and he tried to shame me into giving the company back.
18:18I'm sure he was just doing his father's bidding.
18:21I mean,
18:21I understand.
18:23Some of the things he said to me really cut deep.
18:31I'm sorry to hear that.
18:33He said he never wanted anything to do with me again.
18:39Sorry.
18:40Among other things,
18:41of course.
18:43but I'm not here to shame you.
18:45And I'm really sorry.
18:47I didn't bring you a gift,
18:50but I would love to take you out for a celebratory breakfast.
18:56Thank you.
18:57I have a lot of work to do.
18:58I can't do that.
18:59Now,
18:59come on.
19:00Don't you know the first lesson in being the boss?
19:04Delegate.
19:07You seem like you could really use a sympathetic ear.
19:11And I just happen to have one.
19:17I do feel for you all.
19:20I know what Pifter means to all of you.
19:24How hard it must be seeing him this vulnerable.
19:27Which is exactly why I'm doing whatever I can to come up with a backup plan.
19:32In case my father's doesn't pan out.
19:36I can't even think about what it would do to him if he lost Newman Enterprises.
19:40The thought that Phyllis would steal away everything that he spent his entire life building is heartbreaking.
19:47I ran into Phyllis last night.
19:51Gloating over her big win, I bet.
19:54I almost felt sorry for her.
19:56No, I don't condone what she's done.
19:59But underneath,
20:01I could see the pain and regret.
20:06Maybe now is the right time to strike.
20:08If Phyllis really is as vulnerable as you seem to think she is.
20:12Of course, I'm going to need Nick's help.
20:14It's not going to be as easy to convince Summer.
20:16And without it, I don't know.
20:18I do understand why he can't go to Mulan with me right now.
20:23I don't understand why you haven't called me back.
20:26I had to track you down and make sure you're still alive.
20:29You two talk. I'll be right back.
20:33Sorry, Vic, that I didn't call you back.
20:36I did, um...
20:38Did Sharon, uh, fill you in on what's going on with Matt?
20:40Yeah, she did.
20:41I'm sorry.
20:43I know Matt Clark being out of jail is like your worst nightmare.
20:46Yeah, it's a lot of worst nightmares.
20:48So, I'm not going to Mulan, and I don't think you should go either.
20:52Well, you're not alone.
20:54Dad's not thrilled with the idea either.
20:56Okay.
20:57Well, why don't you listen to us?
21:00Because we need a back-up plan, Nicholas.
21:03We don't have any other choice.
21:05Well, it doesn't mean this is the right move.
21:08You know, I don't know what the right move is,
21:10but enlisting my daughter into this fight with her mother is not it.
21:15So, I'm asking you, please, as her father, do not get Summer involved in this.
21:27Look, Vic, it's been hard enough for Summer to deal with Phyllis' latest attacks against our family.
21:34I mean, I already told you, I really regret getting Summer involved back when it was Phyllis and Cain gunning
21:42for Newman Enterprises.
21:42Come on, Nick.
21:43It wasn't as if Summer wasn't going to find out what Phyllis has done.
21:47Yeah, but did it have to be me?
21:48You know who did it?
21:50I put my daughter in the middle of her mother and father.
21:53You said that she was angry, and that she might even be willing to help us make things right.
21:59Summer's been upset with Phyllis in the past, but she always ends up helping her.
22:02In fact, they always become closer.
22:05I just, I want Summer to be able to decide for herself how she deals with this.
22:11You know, backing off on Summer might also help soften Phyllis and not make her so defensive.
22:18Knowing that her kids won't even speak to her is just making her dig in even harder
22:24so she can cover up how much pain she's in.
22:28I know that it's bothering her.
22:30I saw it, even though she insisted that she was fine about it.
22:34Well, it should bother her.
22:36What she did was very wrong, and she needs to make it right.
22:39I don't want to put any more pressure on Summer than she's probably ardent feeling.
22:44I understand.
22:45But do you really think that Daddy's plan to force Cain into fighting this battle for us
22:49is going to work?
22:49The only way that Cain is going to come through for us is if Dad ups the threat to Lily,
22:58Maddie,
22:59and Charlie, and that's not going to happen.
23:02Don't be so sure.
23:04The longer our father holds out, the more desperate and angry he becomes.
23:08I don't want to see him escalate this whole thing to another level,
23:11and then we all end up with an outcome that we regret.
23:19Oh, look at these guys.
23:20They can't stand it.
23:21Who?
23:22These guys over there.
23:24Everybody.
23:24Everybody.
23:25Who thought I was washed up.
23:27Now they have to contend with the fact that I'm the most powerful woman in this town.
23:32Well, I thought they just thought we'd let go.
23:35You know, I know you said you wanted to treat, but I would like to put this on my tab.
23:40In fact, I would love to spend all of Victor's money here.
23:45Breakfast for everyone.
23:46Breakfast on me.
23:47They can eat their hearts out.
23:49That sounds great.
23:50I'll take a side of bacon.
23:51Oh, hello, Billy.
23:53You look happy, Billy.
23:54Well, I'm just happy to see you two beautiful women here together,
23:57although I am surprised that you're here together.
24:00Why?
24:01We've been friends forever.
24:03Yeah, I know, but you're also married to Michael Baldwin,
24:06so the fact that you are here together could mean one or two things.
24:09You're either in the process of chastising her for the coup that she just pulled off,
24:13or maybe you're actually happy that she was the one that screwed Victor over.
24:17Because of the amount of times that he screwed Michael over in the past.
24:22She's the one to make it happen.
24:24Maybe you're okay with that.
24:26Lauren is the only one who's not passing judgment on me.
24:29You know, I was on board from the get-go.
24:34Okay, this has to stop.
24:37Uh, what did I do?
24:39You have been working 24-7 since I hired you,
24:42and frankly, it's making me feel guilty for not doing the same.
24:46I'm just playing catch-up, but I do have a few ideas I want to run by you.
24:51Okay, shoot.
24:53First, our logo.
24:56It's still in the concept stages, but you get the general idea.
25:00And, you know, I think since we're not a known entity like Newman,
25:04it would be smart to spell out our names instead of just our initials.
25:07Yeah.
25:08You're absolutely right.
25:10Do you like it?
25:11I do.
25:12Yeah.
25:13I love it.
25:13Okay, I also drew up a bullet point plan for blanketing social media with our mission statement,
25:19along with a blast about merging with Newman Media.
25:22I send it over for your approval.
25:24Sounds fantastic.
25:27So, if you like what I just showed you,
25:31what's bothering you?
25:33Nothing.
25:36You're my best friend, Sally.
25:37I know when something's up.
25:41I went to see Billy just now.
25:44Why would you do that?
25:45I just wanted to tell him about my plans that I have for the company.
25:51Not to get approval or anything, just, you know, out of courtesy.
25:55Yeah, well, I'm sure he had plenty of ideas about the company he abandoned,
26:00starting with strongly advising you to let me go.
26:02I will tell you what I told him.
26:05But I don't give a damn what he thinks about hiring you or changing the name or anything else.
26:11You really told him that?
26:12I did.
26:14I bet he loved that.
26:16I mean, actually, he was pretty accepting of it.
26:19I made it very clear that since he chose to move on with Chancellor,
26:23that I am making the choice to move on without him.
26:28Why does it feel like there's something you're not telling me?
26:32I mean, nothing of any consequence.
26:39He invited me to dinner.
26:41Hmm.
26:42Well, you're not going, right?
26:46Oh, my God, Sally, why are you going?
26:49It's just a dinner.
26:50It's never just a dinner.
26:52I know what I'm doing.
26:53So do I.
26:54You're giving Billy another chance to talk you into getting back with him
26:58and out of what's best for you.
27:06I'm not going to let Billy talk me into giving him a second chance.
27:10Not when I know that I will never come first with him.
27:12You're right.
27:13You won't.
27:16I'm sorry.
27:17But you just said it yourself.
27:19It doesn't mean that I still don't care about him.
27:23I know he still loves me.
27:25Yeah, he has a funny way of showing it.
27:28I know I need to do what's best for me.
27:30Well, if you know that, why are you going to dinner with him at all?
27:33Because I don't want to end the relationship on bad terms.
27:36Didn't Billy already do that?
27:38Look, this dinner, as Billy put it, is just a final goodbye between two civil adults.
27:50You and I both know he's not going down without a fight.
27:55It's not going to happen.
27:57I won't let it.
28:00Well, of course you were all for it.
28:02Everybody knows you hate Victor Nimmin.
28:04You probably jumped at the chance to be part of his demise.
28:07Honestly, I had nothing to do with it.
28:09I just happened to be at the right place at the right time.
28:12You expect me to believe that Phyllis just handed you Chancellor out of the goodness of her heart?
28:18That you didn't have some sort of side arrangement to secure your CEO spot?
28:23Well, like you just said, I hate Victor.
28:25So if someone enlisted my help to try and take Victor down, that is a big if.
28:31Of course, I wouldn't need much incentive, would I?
28:35Is that like a true opportunist?
28:37I'm a little surprised you hear condoning Phyllis' actions, though.
28:41Why wouldn't I?
28:42Well, I figured at least in public you'd be a little more neutral given the precarious position that Michael is
28:47in with what happened to Newman.
28:49Michael's not tethered to Victor Newman anymore.
28:51I mean, besides his conscience and his obligation as a longtime friend, I, on the other hand, owe the man
29:00nothing and don't care if the world knows that I'm not a fan.
29:04So this is just the two of you being gal pals?
29:08I'm supposed to believe you're not using your decades-long friendship to try and convince Phyllis that you made a
29:12mistake?
29:14That's a page out of your playbook, Billy.
29:16Not mine.
29:18Not that devious.
29:19Phyllis, especially with my friends.
29:22And Phyllis is a very important friend to me, whether you believe it or not.
29:26Bills is right here.
29:27I'm very much aware of that.
29:31I would say proceed with caution where your friends and enemies are concerned, because I'm sure they're coming at you
29:37at all angles.
29:38Don't cave under the pressure.
29:41Don't let anyone convince you you don't deserve this.
29:43You've come way too far to have someone talk you out of your success now.
29:50Good to see you.
29:54Look, I don't think that Dad's gonna up, you know, the danger to Lily and the twins.
29:59I also don't know what Dad thinks Cain is gonna be able to do.
30:02He betrayed Phyllis, so she left him in the dust.
30:06Any pull that he had or sway with her is gone.
30:11I think the hope is, is that Cain will be the one to do something drastic.
30:15That way, Daddy can keep his hands and the rest of the family's hands clean while getting back what belongs
30:21to him.
30:34What is it, Nixon, girl?
30:38Is it Matt?
30:40Matt?
30:44I trust your opinion, not only in business, but also in matters of the heart.
30:50Well, you shouldn't trust me on that front.
30:54My romantic track record is pretty bleak.
30:57Although I guess you could look at my fail-to-love life as, you know, a case study for what
31:03not to do.
31:03But seriously, I am done passing judgment.
31:06There's nothing worse than someone bad-mouthing your romantic partner.
31:09Okay, well, there is no more romantic partnership with Billy, especially now that I know that he's proven to only
31:17do what he wants.
31:18Okay, and you have already proven, despite what you know about him, you can't resist his terms.
31:25So, fine.
31:26I won't hold my tongue.
31:30Okay, by all means.
31:32Sharing so much as a stick of gum with him is a huge mistake and something you should avoid at
31:38all costs.
31:39Okay, you make it sound like I lose all sense of myself whenever I'm around him.
31:43This so-called dinner can only go one of two ways.
31:47Either he convinces you to get back with him and you'll end up on that rollercoaster you swore you were
31:52done riding.
31:53Or you'll stand your ground, in which case he won't take no for an answer.
31:57And if that happens, you two adults could end up being anything but civil.
32:07Didn't Billy fire you not too long ago?
32:10He did.
32:11Well, you two must have found some way to make peace.
32:14Otherwise, there's absolutely no way you would have given him Chancellor.
32:18Not when Cain was out of the picture.
32:20Well, just say that I saw the value of letting that part of Cain's deal stand.
32:26You know what I didn't like?
32:27I didn't like the way he was trying to create doubt in you about me and where I stand.
32:33I'm here without judgment.
32:35Okay, I know that.
32:37I am so exhausted trying to plead my case to my friends and my family.
32:45No one, no one wants to hear my side of the story.
32:48No one wants to hear it.
32:49But I do.
32:51I want to hear it.
32:52Please tell me.
32:56This is the way I see it.
33:01This isn't my last chance, Lauren.
33:05This is quite possibly my only chance to change my life for the better.
33:13Do you understand what I'm saying?
33:14Maybe do something good in the world.
33:16It's incredible that I am the villain and the Newmans are the victims in my dastardly deeds.
33:25That's how people see it.
33:26The Newman family, no matter what crisis befalls them, they come out on top.
33:32I mean, I can't believe doing what I did has affected my friends and family the way it has.
33:40That they want to alienate me.
33:42These are the same people who chastise me for going toe-to-toe with Victor Newman and winning.
33:47And I won.
33:48I won, Lauren.
33:50Nobody has been able to do that.
33:52And I did it.
33:55But somehow I'm alone because of it.
34:00I'm the town pariah.
34:01I am.
34:03Really?
34:06Listen, if that means I have to go solo, fine.
34:11If that's my only option, so be it.
34:13I don't care.
34:15I'm so sorry.
34:17And if there's anything that I can do to help you, just you say the word, okay?
34:25Maybe there is.
34:28Name it.
34:29Come work for me.
34:39Nick.
34:40Please, tell me what's going on.
34:41Is Matt here?
34:42Is he in Genoa City?
34:53I don't know if he's here or not, but he is demanding $5 million to leave our son alone.
34:58He can't be serious.
34:59Last time I met with him, I offered him a million to leave town, but obviously he's asking for more.
35:04Well, even if we did pay him, you and I both know that he won't stop there.
35:08Well, can the police trace his text and find out where he is?
35:11No.
35:12No.
35:13We have to deal with this ourselves.
35:14Which means we have to come up with a way to lure him out of hiding.
35:20Instead of trying to see her clear for him, we have to draw him close.
35:24It's another worse nightmare, but this might be the only way to end this insanity once and for all.
35:34There's no way I'm letting Billy talk me into getting back together with him, okay?
35:38I made it very clear to him, and now to you.
35:40I am moving forward.
35:42Yeah, easy for you to say when he's not in the room, Sally.
35:45You make it sound like I have absolutely no willpower around him.
35:49You're wrong.
35:50Well, I hope so.
35:52But since I can't talk you out of this goodbye dinner, my advice is that you go in strong and
35:58resolved.
35:59Like, you've been down this road with Billy before.
36:03You know he's trouble.
36:04You also know that he's so good at convincing you he's worth that trouble.
36:09So whatever you decide, just make sure that you're thinking about you and not him.
36:22I'm so flattered and, uh, touched by the offer.
36:29You know, I think I'm content where I am right now.
36:34Mmm.
36:35Is it really contentment that you feel?
36:38Well, as opposed to what?
36:39As opposed to complacency, maybe?
36:42You know, to be honest, you're due for an adventure.
36:44You know, something besides picking out wedding dresses for the bug.
36:49You know, while beautiful, but still, you know, putting together bachelorette parties.
36:53You're better than that.
36:54Come work for me.
36:55Just think about it.
36:56Just a bit.
36:57Don't let Michael talk you out of this, please.
37:01But imagine us together, we could take over the world.
37:08This all sounds incredibly risky.
37:10Don't you think you'd be better off letting Dad's men handle this?
37:13No.
37:14Dad has his hands full trying to get our company back.
37:17Sharon and I can handle this.
37:18I'm glad you two have each other.
37:20Yeah, me too.
37:23The question is, how do we lure Matt out of hiding without also giving away that he's
37:28walking right into a trap?
37:31I have an idea, a way to get him to come to us.
37:34A way he won't be able to resist.
37:41Next week on The Young and the Restless.
37:43Have you heard from Dad today?
37:45I've been trying to get a hold of him, and it's making me a little nervous.
37:48I haven't heard from him either, and I don't like it.
37:52What are you going to do to sway me?
37:54You think I have something that you want so bad you won't be able to refuse?
37:58Victor kidnapped my father.
38:00Victor just told me that if I don't have a chance to back to him by the end of the
38:03day,
38:03we will never see Jack again.
