04:34and honestly victor it's a little it's a little sad
04:38seeing you sitting there grasping at tiny little straws in order to save your legacy
04:43so you're refusing my offer
04:45it's not an offer
04:46it's a bluff
04:48you are so desperate to try and hold on to everything that you lost
04:51you lost
04:52not anyone else
04:54and i'm sure that's keeping you up at night
04:56that thought spinning in your head that this is all your fault
04:59so no
05:00i'm not buying
05:03listen very carefully
05:08your brother's life
05:11is at stake
05:15and i'm not bluffing
05:16i'm not bluffing
05:45so
05:57What did you do with Jack?
06:01Would you ask him?
06:03If he can find him.
06:06This is sick.
06:08You're a sick man.
06:10This is my life.
06:12This is the legacy I was going to leave for my family.
06:16I'll do anything I have to.
06:18Kidnap Lily.
06:19Kidnap the twins.
06:21Jack, anyone else you want to take hostage?
06:26This is madness.
06:29You have to the end of day to send the company back over to me.
06:35Now show yourself out, okay?
06:54Is that true?
06:57Have you taken Jack?
07:07So tell me about the trip.
07:09How was L.A.?
07:11Um, interesting, surprising, disturbing.
07:16Disturbing?
07:18Is it about Holden?
07:20Not really.
07:21I mean, yes, he's a part of it, but not the biggest part.
07:27The biggest part is me.
07:32You?
07:33I don't understand.
07:35I didn't go to L.A. just to have fun.
07:37I went there with a purpose, with an agenda.
07:40I wanted to learn as much as I could about someone to hurt them badly.
07:46And when I finally realized what I was doing, I thought, oh my God, I am turning into her.
07:53Jordan.
07:59Claire?
08:01You could never be like Jordan.
08:02I wouldn't be so sure about that.
08:04Why would you even think that?
08:05Because the anger that I felt towards this person, the rage.
08:08I wanted to, I wanted to crush her.
08:10I wanted to make her feel real pain.
08:13Are you talking about Otra?
08:16Who else?
08:17Well, that's understandable after everything she's done.
08:20What this time?
08:23Well, nothing.
08:24That's the thing.
08:25She's been on her best behavior around me lately, but it doesn't even matter because just the sight of her
08:29makes my skin crawl.
08:30And after everything that she's put me through since Dad died, I just felt like this, like an obsessive need
08:37to pay her back.
08:39Pay her back?
08:40How?
08:42Remember when I told you that Otra and Holden had a shady past together in L.A.?
08:47Yes.
08:48And that you were pushing him to find out what it was.
08:50Did he ever tell you?
08:52Part of it, but not the worst part.
08:54And I am sure that there's a lot more.
08:57Why?
08:57Because he'd always cut the conversation short or change the subject whenever I tried to ask for more details.
09:02And it was almost like he was trying to protect her.
09:05Or trying to protect himself.
09:07I needed to know.
09:08I needed to know not just because of how it might affect my relationship with Holden, but because I wanted
09:14to use it to ruin her.
09:18I thought about it all the time.
09:20Like it would keep me up at night, trying to think of ways that I could inflict the most pain.
09:27I could feel the old me coming back, like ruthless and calculating and willing to do whatever it took to
09:34destroy my enemy.
09:36The way that I was when you met me, like that person.
09:41Claire, no.
09:43I know.
09:43I thought she was gone too, Mom, but she's not.
09:49So, do you have Jack Abbott stashed away somewhere?
09:58Are you surprised?
10:00A little.
10:04Why you shouldn't be, son?
10:08I'm about to lose everything I've built.
10:13I'll be down if I let her go without a fight.
10:17Do you really think Billy's just going to hand over Chancellor in exchange for Jack?
10:22He would if he's smart.
10:24Okay, well, we both know Billy doesn't always play it smart.
10:29So, what's going to happen to Jack if he doesn't agree?
10:32Why not just wait for Cain to come through with Phyllis?
10:35That way we can get all of Newman Enterprises back with one move.
10:39Not going to happen.
10:40I don't trust them.
10:42I can't count on them.
10:43I'm not going to wait, okay?
10:46Well, am I playing too rough?
10:51Because if I am, you'd better get used to it.
10:57Because it's going to get much rougher now.
11:03I know you're not a fan of Billy's.
11:07I mean, it's not about him.
11:09I mean, yes, he's insensitive, impulsive, self-centered.
11:14Okay, but it's not about him.
11:16You could say that about almost any man, Sally.
11:19It's the nature of the species.
11:22But I'm thinking about you here, okay?
11:26I mean, have you forgotten just how committed you were to that relationship
11:29and how Billy lied and lied and lied until it finally blew up?
11:34I have not forgotten.
11:35Okay, I'm sorry, but it sure does seem like one night of great sex has turned a big corner for
11:42you.
11:42Hey, it was a lot more than that.
11:46Sorry.
11:47I didn't mean to presume.
11:51I was just being a little bitchy.
11:53But I'm not wrong about how he hurt you
11:57or everything you had to give up to be his partner.
12:00Marchetti was a pretty good gig.
12:03I do not regret any of my decisions.
12:06Even before last night?
12:10Even before.
12:14Okay.
12:16Look, like I said,
12:19it's your life, your choices, it's none of my business.
12:24But I'd still run for the hills if it were me.
12:28Even if it were Nate?
12:33Unfair.
12:35Why?
12:36Because I was the one who screwed that up, not him.
12:39Okay, but you realized that and you tried to make amends just like Billy did last night.
12:45Wouldn't you have wanted another chance?
12:49I think you know the answer to that.
12:55I'm sorry.
12:57What for?
12:59For using Nate to prove a point.
13:02I know it still hurts.
13:04Yeah, but you're not wrong.
13:07I guess my powers of persuasion are just not as good as Billy's.
13:12Well, I think Nate is the one that's losing out.
13:16Spoken like a true friend.
13:20Look, Adra, I...
13:24I know how this looks.
13:26Okay?
13:27And you're not wrong.
13:29You're not wrong.
13:30I can't argue with anything that you're saying, because it's all true.
13:34Okay?
13:35Yes.
13:36Yes.
13:36Billy made a lot of promises that he couldn't keep, and he hurt me.
13:42Deeply.
13:42But I really believe that he knows that, and he wants to make a change.
13:48No, it's not going to happen overnight, so of course I'm going to, you know, keep my guard up.
13:55But I would hate to walk away from a relationship when I know in my heart that it's not really
14:02over.
14:07Look at how successful you and I are at Spectre Charles Media.
14:11We're a lot alike.
14:13We're fighters, and I have never been one to play it safe.
14:17So why do I do that with my relationships?
14:21I believe in Billy and me.
14:29And for the first time in my life, I am choosing love over fear.
14:45Hey, where's Jack?
14:46He flew to Chicago and some Jabal business.
14:49Do you know that for sure?
14:50Know what?
14:51That he's in Chicago.
14:53Yeah.
14:53It was a last-minute thing.
14:54He texted my mom and me last night.
14:55Okay, where's he staying?
14:57Okay, just slow down.
14:58Kyle, what hotel is he at?
15:00No.
15:01First, you're going to tell me why you're flying around here like about out of hell.
15:04What's wrong?
15:05Look, I hope that it's nothing, but I don't think it is.
15:09Just tell me.
15:11Is Diane here?
15:12She needs to hear this.
15:13I'm right here.
15:16Billy, what's going on?
15:20Victor kidnapped Jack.
15:25What?
15:32Okay, I'm going to be very clear with you, and I want you to listen to me.
15:37You're not a bad person for feeling anger or wanting vengeance against Audra.
15:43I mean, the woman did everything she could to try to ruin your relationship with Kyle.
15:48So you responded.
15:50So what?
15:51That doesn't make you a monster.
15:53Not even remotely.
15:55I know, but...
15:55No, it doesn't, Claire.
15:57It doesn't, okay?
15:58It makes you human.
16:01Did you do anything to harm Audra?
16:04No.
16:04No.
16:06Do you think Jordan would have stopped at having some angry thoughts?
16:11We both know the answer to that.
16:13No, of course she would not have.
16:15But you came to me, and you told me how you were feeling.
16:19I guess that's a...
16:21That's something.
16:22No, that's...
16:23Claire.
16:24That's everything.
16:26That separates basic human behavior from being a total sociopath like she was.
16:33And I'm...
16:34I find it remarkable that you've come this far after growing up in a house full of hatred.
16:39I mean, look at you.
16:42Give yourself a break, all right?
16:44And the next time you're feeling any dark thoughts or...
16:48Or anything like that, I'll always be here to listen to you.
16:50And your family will always be there to support you in every way that we can.
16:54I promise you that.
16:57I know I say this all the time, but...
17:00I'm so lucky to have you.
17:02And to belong to this family.
17:06So, where did this little adventure to L.A. leave you and Holden?
17:14Yeah.
17:16That's over.
17:22You're probably so bored of this by now.
17:26The amazing adventures of Billy and Sally.
17:29Are you kidding?
17:30I am a sucker for dysfunctional relationships.
17:34That's my jam, girl.
17:35Well, I am really glad we could be so entertaining for you.
17:39Oh, it's better than television.
17:43But you're sure, right?
17:47I'm sure.
17:49Okay, well...
17:51I'm gonna be asking you that question a lot, so...
17:53You better get used to it.
17:54Good.
17:55I want it.
17:56Keeps me honest.
17:56Which was Billy and my problem all along.
17:58Honesty.
17:59Yeah, I'd say it was more his problem than yours, but...
18:02Um, let's not forget, I came into this relationship with a lot of baggage of my own.
18:08Sally, you brought a purse.
18:10Billy had a whole set of luggage.
18:13Okay, I am nowhere close to perfect.
18:16Oh, you are to me.
18:18Oh, my gosh.
18:19That is a bit of a stretch.
18:21Is it?
18:22Hmm.
18:23Are you angling for a race?
18:25Maybe.
18:27Look, I'm just...
18:28I'm messing with you.
18:30And...
18:30Well, I get the attraction between you and Billy.
18:34You know, he's got that smile.
18:36He's got that charm.
18:38And when he looks at you...
18:42Man...
18:44I want that look one of these days.
18:48I want someone to...
18:50See me and just, uh...
18:52Light up the way Billy does when he sees you.
18:57You will.
18:59Yeah, maybe in like 20 years or so.
19:01Audra.
19:02You will.
19:05You will.
19:06You just haven't found the right guy.
19:11Victor kidnapped my father.
19:14Victor just told me that if I don't have a chance to back to him by the end of the
19:17day,
19:17we will never see Jack again.
19:18What?
19:20He could be bluffing.
19:20Yeah, but even if he is, who says something like that?
19:23He says something like that, and I don't think he's bluffing.
19:25How do you know?
19:26Oh, well, I don't know.
19:27Just the years of experience of dealing with that son of a bitch.
19:31Are you calling Jack?
19:32Because when I called him, we went straight to voicemail.
19:35Oh, it's voicemail.
19:39Jack, hi, it's me.
19:41Can you call me immediately?
19:43I need to know where you are.
19:50I get the logic, okay?
19:52I understand the need to have more than one plan to get us out of the mess we're in.
19:56Just, I wish it didn't involve hurting people.
19:59Who said I wouldn't hurt someone?
20:02What, is Jack in on this one, too?
20:06Just like Lily was?
20:08Does it mean soon end?
20:10Okay, which means no, he's not.
20:13Ah, son, I wish I didn't have to deal with any of this now.
20:16Well, you know what it's like to wake up in the middle of the night and realize that everything
20:22you have worked for, everything I've built up over a lifetime is about to banish into thin air?
20:28Sir, this is very personal to me.
20:31I'll do anything I have to to get this back.
20:35And if Jack, bored with the silver spoon in his mouth, Abbott, suffers a little, so be it.
20:42I don't give a damn.
20:44Sir, I understand.
20:47Do you really?
20:49Or do I sense that you have sympathy for that man?
20:52What are you talking about?
20:53Now, wait a minute.
20:54Are you refusing to help your father?
20:58My allegiance will always be to you, Dad.
21:00Good.
21:01I just wish there was another way to go about this.
21:02There is.
21:03Okay, well, I get that.
21:06I just want to know one thing, though.
21:07Where is Jack?
21:15Well, thanks for the pep talk, Sally.
21:18You have to really be brave to put your heart on the line like you have.
21:24And, um, keep it there, no matter what.
21:28I admire that.
21:30Didn't you do that with me?
21:33I thought so.
21:36But, if I'm being honest, not 100%.
21:42I never completely trusted him with my hopes, dreams, feelings, fears.
21:51I guess I never fully trusted anyone before.
21:55Well, you just haven't met the right person yet.
21:58Because when you do, you will handle your heart without even thinking about it.
22:02Choosing love instead of fear.
22:06Took me long enough to figure that one out.
22:10You know, a few minutes ago, when you told me that you and Billy had gone back together,
22:17I was just all set to let you have it and argue all the many ways why it's a terrible
22:22idea.
22:24I mean, you did.
22:26Yes.
22:28But now, I don't think so.
22:30I think it makes sense.
22:31And if you're willing to put your heart out there, who am I to tell you not to?
22:37That means a lot, Audra.
22:39But, I swear to God, if Billy decides to act a fool and hurts you again,
22:45he's going to have me to answer to.
22:47God, he's not going to like that.
22:49Damn right he won't.
22:52I'm not even going to focus on that.
22:55Okay?
22:56Yes, I'm going to keep my eyes wide open,
22:58but I'm also going to keep them open to all the good things that are right in front of us.
23:02Billy can focus on Chancellor and still love me,
23:05and I can make Spectre Charles a success and love him back.
23:10It doesn't have to be one or the other.
23:13It never did.
23:16As Billy always says,
23:20sometimes you really can't have it all.
23:25I can't be with a man who I don't trust,
23:27and Holden's been lying to me
23:30about what really happened between him and Audra in L.A. from the start.
23:34So, that's it.
23:37So, what do you think did happen between Audra and Holden?
23:42Something bad.
23:45Something potentially dangerous if it were to come out.
23:48Believe me, I spend a lot of time digging and trying to find out what it was.
23:54But not anymore.
23:56I refuse to get caught up in all that drama,
23:59because it's just, it's just too exhausting.
24:03I think that's very smart.
24:05I think trust is the one thing that you have to have in any relationship.
24:08Right?
24:09It is.
24:10It certainly is.
24:11And I don't want you getting involved in anything dangerous,
24:14not even a little bit, Claire.
24:16We've had enough of that in this family.
24:18I promise not to act to it.
24:21All right.
24:22All right.
24:24So, what comes next?
24:28Wish I knew.
24:31You and Kyle seem friendlier lately.
24:36Did Victor give you any proof that he's taken Jack?
24:39No, he did not.
24:41Okay, then I'm right.
24:41It could be a bluff.
24:42Well, I don't think it's a bluff, Kyle.
24:45Okay, yes, we all know Victor's ruthless and his back is against the wall,
24:49but taking a hostage?
24:50I mean, that's a little extreme.
24:51Well, he's already done it.
24:53What are you talking about?
24:54Done what, Billy?
24:57Okay.
24:58The reason why Phyllis turned on Cain after the handover
25:03is because Cain was ready to hand everything back to Victor.
25:06You're kidding.
25:06Why would he do that?
25:08Because Victor kidnapped Lily and the twins in order to force Cain's hand.
25:12My God.
25:13And you know this for a fact?
25:14Don't know it for a fact, but nobody's been able to talk to Lily or the twins for weeks.
25:18There is speculation that maybe just, maybe Lily is in on this in order to get back at Cain,
25:23but at the end of the day, they are prisoners of Victor's.
25:26Yeah, but Victor wouldn't hurt Lily.
25:29I don't think so, but it's Victor, right?
25:31But he would hurt Dad.
25:33Yeah, he would.
25:34Just to be clear, I don't think Victor's hurt anyone.
25:37This is another one of his maneuvers, another play on his chest.
25:41Well, I'm not going to sit around and wait to find out what his next move is.
25:44I'm going to get the truth, and I'm going straight to the source to get it.
26:02Kyle and I have been spending more time together, and it's been fun and easy and nice.
26:13And he has not made a move, if that's what you're asking.
26:17No, I wasn't, but that's good to know.
26:19And I plan to keep it that way for a while, because I don't really want to be bouncing
26:23back and forth between Kyle and Holden or any other man.
26:27If there's one thing that I learned in L.A., it's that I still have a lot to learn about
26:32myself, and in order to do that, I need to be on my own for a while.
26:41What?
26:42Nothing at all.
26:44I was just thinking about how I wish I had the same maturity and common sense that you
26:50have when I was your age.
26:51It would have saved me a lot of grief.
26:54I can't imagine being better than you at anything.
26:57Oh, I had my fair share of Holden's in my life, with danger signs flashing in neon, and
27:04I didn't pay attention to any of them.
27:05Well, I was tempted.
27:08There's a lot more to Holden than you think.
27:10He's a really great guy in a lot of ways.
27:13He's just...
27:14He's just not for you.
27:16Well, not now.
27:19Holden wanted to take things further with us, but I just wasn't comfortable with it,
27:24even without all the Audra drama.
27:27I think that's a smart decision.
27:29And at the end of the day, I just want you to be happy.
27:33I'm getting there.
27:36But, um, if you don't mind a little unsolicited motherly advice,
27:44just, you know, don't overthink this.
27:48What do you mean?
27:49Just don't plan what comes next.
27:51You know, if you're meant to be on your own, that's fine.
27:55But if something happens to come your way, then just let it happen.
28:00Let life come to you.
28:02Sounds like something Dad would have said.
28:04I probably stole it from him, to be honest.
28:09Your dad was a good man.
28:10You're a lot like him.
28:13There is no way on Earth that you could
28:17be the terrible person that Jordan tried to raise you to be.
28:25Oh, hi.
28:26Hi.
28:27Hi, Billy.
28:29Oh, I'm sorry.
28:30I didn't mean to interrupt.
28:33Oh, no, it's fine.
28:34We were just having a chat, doing some work.
28:37Oh, I hear congratulations are in order.
28:39I heard you and Sally break things out.
28:41Uh, yes, we did.
28:42I'm extremely grateful for that.
28:44Look, I don't want to be rude, Audra,
28:45but can I speak to Sally privately, please?
28:48No, not at all.
28:49I actually have plenty of work to do at Spectra Charles Media.
28:55How do you like the name, by the way?
28:57Yeah, no, it's fine.
28:59Um, again, sorry.
29:00I really need to speak to Sally.
29:02Relax, Billy.
29:03I'm leaving.
29:05Call me?
29:14Was this about what you told me about earlier?
29:16What did you find out?
29:18What I should have known all along,
29:20Victor Newman will stop at nothing to get what he wants.
29:29All right, thank you.
29:31Kind of you to fill in.
29:49Billy just told us that you have taken Jack,
29:51and you won't release him until he hands over Chancellor.
29:54That better not be true, Victor.
29:56Where is he?
29:57What have you done with my husband?
30:11Oh, looks good.
30:13Okay, so now I want to hear about the real family drama.
30:16Is there any update?
30:17Has Grandpa figured out a way to save the company?
30:20No, nothing so far.
30:21However, he says he has a new plan in the works,
30:25but as usual, he won't tell any of us about it.
30:27Hmm.
30:28Sounds like Grandpa.
30:29Yeah.
30:30It's very frustrating for all of us.
30:32We're smart people.
30:34We have ideas.
30:36But when things get critical,
30:38he always insists on taking care of everything himself.
30:41Mm-hmm.
30:44Why is that funny?
30:47It's kind of funny.
30:48Is it?
30:49Why?
30:50Okay, well, I think it's kind of ironic
30:52to hear you complaining about Grandpa
30:54wanting to handle things all on his own
30:56when I think secretly
30:57you would like to be doing the same thing yourself.
31:03Please tell me where he is.
31:06You're safe.
31:07For now.
31:08What is that supposed to mean?
31:10Exactly what I said.
31:12And the hell with that.
31:14What do you think you're doing?
31:15Calling the cops.
31:16I wouldn't do that if I were you.
31:18No, I don't give a damn what you think.
31:19You don't call the cops without reporting a crime.
31:22Well, kidnapping is a crime, Victor.
31:25How do you know he didn't just decide to take a vacation?
31:29Just put the phone down, Kyle.
31:32You sure?
31:33Yes, for now.
31:33Listen, if you want to know more,
31:35just contact your idiot Uncle Billy boy, okay?
31:39He's the one who wanted to play in the big leagues.
31:41And this is how we play.
31:43Victor, Jack doesn't have anything to do with any of this.
31:47You're the one who created this mess for yourself.
31:50He serves my purpose.
31:52Oh, what?
31:52He's just another casualty of war?
31:54Is that it?
31:54You're bad if you do anything to hurt my father.
31:58I will make it my mission in life to destroy you, Victor.
32:01Listen to me, boy.
32:02You're sort of threatening me.
32:05Why don't you contact your idiot Uncle Billy boy?
32:09I want my company back.
32:12He has a means to do it.
32:15See to it that he does.
32:23I can't believe Victor would do this.
32:25Oh, well, I can.
32:26The bastard is desperate when he's desperate.
32:28He's capable of anything.
32:30Well, has he given you any proof that he even has Jack?
32:32No, and if he did, I'd take it to the cops.
32:34And he knows that?
32:36And Victor's many things, but stupid is not one of them.
32:39Do Diane and Kyle know?
32:40I just told him.
32:42Apparently, Jack sent Diana text saying he's got an emergency trip to Chicago, but it goes
32:47straight to voicemail, and nobody's heard from him since, and that's not like my brother.
32:50Well, what are you going to do, Billy?
32:53Because, I mean, Phyllis said that Chancellor isn't even really yours yet.
32:58No, I know.
32:59Is she right?
33:01Yeah, she's right.
33:02Until that ink is dry, Phyllis is the owner of Chancellor.
33:06So you can't even do this for Victor, even if you wanted to.
33:14I don't operate like your grandfather, okay?
33:17I am a team player, and if there's a problem, I work with people.
33:21I collaborate with them.
33:23Okay.
33:25Do you not agree?
33:29I don't think you keep secrets, if that's what you're saying.
33:31I keep some secrets.
33:34Okay, well, I've seen that when you have, uh, your mind's made up to do something, that
33:40your inclination is to just go ahead and do it, whether you have permission or not.
33:46Like your plan to go to Milan to talk Summer into helping us with Phyllis?
33:51Yeah, that worked out real well.
33:53I thought it was a great plan.
33:54It was a great plan.
33:56It's still a great idea.
33:58I shouldn't have let the family, specifically your grandfather, talk me out of it.
34:04But that contradicts your point.
34:07I did not use my instincts.
34:10Next time, don't tell him.
34:12Mm.
34:13Mm-hmm.
34:13Well, there's not going to be a next time, Claire.
34:16Why not?
34:16If you think it's a great plan, then why don't you still go ahead and do it?
34:22We've been talking all afternoon about me using my instincts for whatever happens next.
34:28Why don't you do the same?
34:30If it could save Newman Enterprises, what do you have to lose?
34:38Are you right?
34:39The deal's not done.
34:41In this moment right now, Phyllis still owns Chancellor.
34:43Do you think Victor knows that?
34:45I don't think so.
34:46I mean, he still thinks that I can do something about it.
34:49He's already gone after Cain and Phyllis, and now I'm the next target.
34:52So what are you going to do?
34:55If this is about getting a signature on a piece of paper, then I call my attorneys, and I get
34:59it done.
35:01But I thought you said that you thought Phyllis was stalling.
35:03Yeah, I mean, it's either that or it's Phyllis, you know, making me sweat just for old time's sake.
35:09Either way, it's got to happen fast.
35:11Okay, well, if it does, what are you going to do?
35:13Are you just going to hand Chancellor over to Victor?
35:16Oh, my God.
35:19I sure as hell do not want to do that.
35:23I know.
35:27This is a really difficult position for you to be in, but...
35:31Do you really think Victor would do something like that?
35:35You really think he's going to hurt Jack?
35:37I think it would be a very big mistake to underestimate Victor's hatred for my brother.
35:44I mean, we're talking a decades-long rivalry, and that match is very quick to light.
35:51But I'll tell you this until I have proof that Jack is okay.
35:55Victor is getting nothing.
36:00God, I want to hit him.
36:02You would have had to stand in line behind me.
36:05But he is...
36:05He's desperate, Kyle.
36:07Behind that smug mask, I could see some real panic.
36:10I guess whatever deal Victor made with Lily to force Kane's hand didn't work, so this is his next move.
36:15Well, what scares me is what exactly is that move?
36:18I mean, what has Victor done with Jack?
36:20Where the hell is my husband?
36:24Where are you?
36:27Where are you?
36:36Oh, my God.
36:54How do you...
36:57What are you doing?
36:58I have no idea.
36:59Here I have a hundred,
36:59I have a hundred,
37:10I can't make it.
37:12I can't make it.
37:19I can't make it.
37:21I don't know.
37:49I don't know.
38:19I don't know.
38:49I don't know.
