00:06Hi, Mom.
00:07Oh, Victoria, thank you for coming.
00:09Is everything all right?
00:11No. No, it isn't.
00:13What happened? Did you have a fight with Dad?
00:16Not yet, but I'm about to.
00:19This time, your father has gone too far.
00:22He has kidnapped Jack.
00:51He has kidnapped Jack.
01:05I can't decide what to order.
01:11I think it would be indulgent if I got the Caesar salad and the empanadas.
01:18Hey, Noah.
01:20You there?
01:24Hey.
01:25Look at me.
01:28What's going on?
01:30I just don't have much of an appetite right now.
01:35Well, you did a couple minutes ago.
01:40Is it Matt again?
01:42I'm sorry.
01:43I thought we decided not to let him live inside our heads 24 hours a day.
01:50I know, I know, I know, I know, I know we did.
01:52I'm just, I'm worried about what my dad is going to do now that Matt is out there.
01:57Yeah, and I told him where I thought he might be hiding.
02:02Shouldn't have done that, huh?
02:03Yeah, it isn't that, it's what he might do with that information.
02:10Yeah, my dad is on there about this scowl for blood.
02:15And I'm worried that he's going to go out there alone and try to end this himself like he's done
02:21before.
02:21And he's in no shape to do that, Sienna.
02:24You see him.
02:25Yeah, yeah, I do see him.
02:29Can I ask you something?
02:32Yeah, sure.
02:36Does he seem a little off to you lately?
03:05Yeah, he's a little off to you lately.
03:17Hey, Nick.
03:22Everything you all right?
03:32Wait a minute.
03:34Dad did what?
03:36You heard right, Victoria.
03:38He kidnapped Jack and is hiding him somewhere to force Billy into returning Chancellor.
03:46Was this the plan that he was talking about before?
03:49I don't know.
03:49I assume so.
03:50God knows he never tells us any details.
03:53But that should have been our first clue that it would be something that we didn't like.
03:57But this is beyond that.
04:00This is insanity.
04:02Are you sure that that's true?
04:03Yes, I am.
04:05How did you find out about him?
04:08Well, I saw Phyllis visiting your father here at the ranch a couple of times today.
04:13And I thought, that's very strange.
04:17Why was she here?
04:18Did he ever say why?
04:19Well, I knew he would never give me a straight answer, so I followed her to society to find out
04:25what the two of them were up to.
04:27And that's where she told you about Jack?
04:29Look, Phyllis didn't tell me anything.
04:33But Diane showed up and told me what Victor had done, and suddenly it all made sense.
04:39Hey, I'm sorry, but I'm still a little confused.
04:41You said Dad did this to force Billy to give up Chancellor.
04:45So what does any of this have to do with Phyllis?
04:48Billy doesn't own Chancellor.
04:51What?
04:52Technically, it still belongs to Phyllis.
04:56So Dad switched the offer over to her, and has she done anything about it?
05:02I don't know.
05:02I don't know anything.
05:03I'm the last person to know anything in this family.
05:08I don't know what to say.
05:10Oh, I have plenty to say to your father when he finally gets home.
05:13You know, it was bad enough with Lily and the twins, but at least I felt better because they were
05:20in on it.
05:21I know Jack would never agree to anything like this, and knowing how your father feels about him, I'm terrified
05:29about what might happen next.
05:33Everything's fine.
05:34Why do you ask?
05:36I don't know.
05:37You just seem startled to see me, I guess.
05:42Yeah, well, I'm a little jumpy right now, I guess.
05:47Can't blame you.
05:48I mean, who wouldn't be?
05:50Was Matt Clark on the loose?
05:52Yeah.
05:54About that.
05:56Sharon and I were talking, and it just wasn't fair, you know, trying to sandbag you into helping us find
06:04him.
06:04It's fine.
06:05No, it's not.
06:06That was a terrible time for you, Adam.
06:08And it wasn't cool asking you to dredge it all up again.
06:11Well, I appreciate that, Nick.
06:12But I've already agreed to help, and really, it's no big deal.
06:16That is a lie.
06:17No, I'm being serious.
06:20All we had to do was bring up Risa's name.
06:22And your face, it was like haunted, and you were scared, and it just, it wasn't fair, okay?
06:28I don't want that for you.
06:30Neither does Sharon.
06:31We never should have brought it up.
06:36Well, you have gotten a little bit better at reading me, Nick.
06:41But yeah, it hit me.
06:44Going back to that place, that time that I've been trying to forget about for so long.
06:49You know, it's a part of my past that I was hell-bent on never revisiting.
06:53Unless it was absolutely necessary.
06:55And this is...
06:58No, Adam.
06:59No.
07:01You need to find Matt Clark because he's been terrorizing your family.
07:04Your family is my family.
07:06So I'm going to do whatever it takes to help you take care of this.
07:09Well, what is it you think you can do?
07:10You said you don't even remember where she lives.
07:13I think I do know, okay?
07:16I remember where she lived, and I would bet that she's still there.
07:21That was a long time ago.
07:22She could have moved half a dozen times by now.
07:24Not Risa.
07:25She didn't like change.
07:27She had a routine, and I would lay odds she is still there.
07:31Okay.
07:32Then just...
07:35Give me her address, and I will check it out.
07:39Not so fast.
07:41I have to be the one that approaches her, not you.
07:46What do you mean, my dad seems off?
07:49You know, it's just the way he's been acting lately.
07:53Look, I don't know him all that well.
07:55Look, I don't really even know him.
07:57It's just...
07:59I mean, haven't you seen a change in him, too?
08:02Well, if you're talking about how intense he's been...
08:05Yes, I've absolutely seen it.
08:08My dad can lose his mind if he thinks his family's in danger.
08:11My grandfather, too.
08:12Okay, trust me.
08:13I have experienced intense Nick and intense Victor when we first met in L.A.
08:18But, um...
08:20This isn't that.
08:23Then what is it?
08:25It's a feeling.
08:27No, it's actually a look on his face in his eyes.
08:36You know, I don't know.
08:37You know, I'm probably overreacting.
08:40Just forget I said anything about it.
08:42No, we're all pretty freaked out that Matt was let go.
08:46Yeah, I know.
08:47Yeah, and all those text messages that he's been sending us...
08:50It's probably what has Dad on edge.
08:52It's got me on edge, too.
08:53Yeah.
08:55But this...
08:56This started...
08:58Before we knew about Matt.
09:00Before we started getting the texts.
09:02What started?
09:06Just...
09:08Certain signs, okay?
09:10Certain things that he does are familiar to me.
09:13What...
09:13What signs?
09:14What are you talking about?
09:16Just...
09:17Just tell me.
09:40Okay, Mom.
09:41If what you say is true...
09:43It is true, Victoria.
09:45Right, well, then we need to think it through, logically.
09:48Are you kidding me?
09:49There is no logic to this.
09:52Your father has kidnapped a man with the intention of trading his life for the return of a company.
10:01And as much as I would love to get Chancellor back, it would never make that right.
10:07Mom, I don't believe that Dad would do anything to physically harm Jack.
10:11Oh, well, then you are underestimating the decades of hatred he has had for him.
10:17Well, he's not alone in this, you know.
10:20Don't you try to defend him?
10:22Of course I'm not.
10:23But...
10:24What about Phyllis?
10:26I mean, doesn't she share some of the blame as well?
10:29And Cain...
10:31Cain is the one who started this whole nightmare.
10:34Has either one of them kidnapped anybody lately?
10:36Do you think that either one of them would not be capable of doing something extreme to hold on to
10:43what they have?
10:44Of course they would.
10:45We already know that.
10:46Cain already has.
10:48Phyllis, we know, is willing to sell her soul to hold on to this prize that she's been chasing her
10:52whole life.
10:53Yeah, she had a soul.
10:55All I'm saying is that ever since this AI program has been unleashed, it has turned this town upside down.
11:03Who has it?
11:04Who's going to use it next?
11:06It's become this stupid game of whack-a-mole, and I'm beginning to wonder if this threat is ever going
11:11to go away.
11:12Oh, it's going to go away, all right.
11:14The minute I get my hands on it, I will make sure that it is destroyed.
11:19This has to end, and I guess I will be the one to end it.
11:30Hey, so you see anything or anyone?
11:34No, no, no signing back.
11:35I went outside and asked around, nobody saw anything.
11:39Okay, so...
11:40Do you really think that he is ingeniously watching us?
11:45What, again?
11:49Or are you at the athletic club?
11:52Nice to love their burgers.
11:54How about crimson lights?
11:55Say hi to your mom for me.
11:59Taking a stroll along the Lumen grounds?
12:02Make sure Sienna wears layers.
12:04She gets a cold and he's a sick bastard.
12:06He's just messing with us.
12:07Okay, so what, you don't think that he's in Genoa City now?
12:10What?
12:10Matt wouldn't have the cash to hire anybody to watch us.
12:13And if he shows up here on his own, he's a dead man.
12:16No, no, no, no.
12:18He wants to make sure that we know that he's thinking about us every minute of every day.
12:23I mean, he could be thousands of miles away for all we know, but he can still check in whenever
12:26he wants.
12:27It's like a little game to him.
12:28Okay, so he's going to keep terrorizing us.
12:32Only if we let him.
12:34I mean, we could decide not to react every time he does it.
12:36Yeah, kind of hard not to.
12:38Yeah.
12:38No, I know I want to punch a hole in his face right now, but I just spent the last
12:42ten minutes chasing the Phantom.
12:44I don't really want to live the rest of my life like that.
12:46Do you?
12:47No.
12:50Okay, so...
12:54Maybe it's not such a bad thing for Dad to track down your lead.
12:59Yeah, maybe.
13:03No one ever finished that conversation about thinking there was something wrong with my dad.
13:08Yeah, it's not important.
13:10No, no.
13:11I think it was, or if you wouldn't have brought it up.
13:16Adam, no.
13:17Sorry.
13:19Okay, Reason won't talk to anybody but me.
13:22Well, then I'll figure something else out.
13:24Nick.
13:24No.
13:25All right?
13:26It was never fair to drag you into this and make you bring up all those bad memories.
13:30Okay, and I said that I can handle it.
13:32Yeah, well, you don't know how you could handle going to Vegas and seeing her again.
13:35You don't know how you're going to react.
13:38Well, she's not going to say anything if we don't get Reason to talk.
13:42And she's not going to talk to you.
13:44I guarantee that.
13:45Just let me worry about Reese, all right?
13:48What are you going to do?
13:49Are you going to throw away the best chance at finding Matt Clark?
13:52This is my fight.
13:54It's mine.
13:55It's always been mine.
13:56Me versus him.
13:57And that's the only way this is going to end.
13:59What?
14:00What's so funny?
14:01You better be careful because you're starting to sound an awful lot like Pop.
14:05Well, I really admire the way he handles certain things.
14:08The way he protects his family and how much he values it.
14:12It's okay.
14:13I don't want this for you.
14:15You are in a good place now.
14:17We are in a good place as brothers.
14:19Let's not do anything to jeopardize that.
14:24But can't you see, Nick, that that works both ways?
14:28Matt didn't just hurt Noah and Sharon.
14:31He hurt my brother.
14:33So that means I want a piece of him, too.
14:37All right?
14:37It's okay to lean on other people.
14:40It's what family does.
14:42At least so I've heard.
14:47Look, I appreciate you wanting to have my back on this.
14:51I do.
14:53But this is something I got to deal with alone.
14:55Well, then you're either being a martyr or you're just being stupid.
15:00Okay?
15:00I am offering you a gift, Nick.
15:03Just accept it.
15:10What do you think Dad is going to say when you confront him?
15:13Oh, he'll deny it.
15:15And then he'll question my sanity for even suggesting such a thing.
15:18That sounds about right.
15:20Yeah, but then he'll do backflips and somersaults trying to justify what he's done.
15:25But there is no justifying what he's done this time.
15:29No, of course not.
15:32Kidnapping Jack is a terrible idea and I don't condone it, not in the least.
15:37But I do agree that desperate times call for desperate measures.
15:41And this family is going to have to go to extremes to get this company back.
15:45That's a fact.
15:47I know it.
15:50Mom, despite your fears, Dad would never do anything to harm Jack.
15:56He would know that that would break things with you and I know that he would do anything he could
16:02to prevent that.
16:04I don't know.
16:05I wonder.
16:07Well, don't wonder.
16:10He adores you.
16:13I still can't understand why Phyllis didn't just swap Chancellor for Jack's release herself.
16:19I mean, obviously she doesn't want it.
16:22She gave the company to Billy.
16:25Maybe that's why she came by earlier, because she was signing over Chancellor in exchange for Jack.
16:31Well, my guess is that she wanted something more than the safe return of Jack for her trouble.
16:39And knowing Phyllis, that could be anything.
16:41She has everything she wants right now.
16:44She has the money.
16:44She has the power.
16:46It's her whole dream.
16:49But she doesn't have any friends left.
16:52And her children aren't talking to her.
16:55So I have to wonder, what good is all of that, you know?
16:58What good is it if you don't have anyone to share it with?
17:05Look, I'm sorry, Noah.
17:07I probably shouldn't have said anything.
17:09I don't have any proof.
17:10Proof of what?
17:13If your dad might have a problem with pain killers.
17:19Oh.
17:20Look, I'm not saying he does.
17:23It's just a question.
17:25No.
17:26My mom and I have talked about this before,
17:29because he did seem to be hitting those pills pretty hard after the accident.
17:34But he said he had a handle on it.
17:35Yeah, they all say they do.
17:37Wait a minute.
17:38Are you saying that my dad is addicted to these pills?
17:40Look, no.
17:41No, I'm not making any accusations.
17:43It's more of a concern.
17:45And I'm certainly not jumping to addiction.
17:48What then?
17:51It's just...
17:53The way that he's been acting lately,
17:56it makes me wonder if he's being over-medicated.
17:59It can happen really easily, and it happens a lot more than you think.
18:04What are you seeing, exactly?
18:08His agitation, right?
18:11His impatience, right?
18:15Like, he's flying off the handle one minute,
18:18and he's trying to reel it back the next,
18:20and...
18:22Come on, the pain in his leg.
18:24No way.
18:25It comes on and goes away so dramatically.
18:28It's just like his mood swings.
18:29I mean, haven't you noticed that?
18:32Yes.
18:33Yes, I have noticed.
18:36But, I mean, wouldn't that make sense?
18:38Isn't that what painkillers are supposed to do?
18:41Numb the pain, make the patient feel better?
18:44And then when you add to that all the stress that he's been under,
18:46with Matt being on the loose,
18:48and then our family and business going under,
18:50hell yeah, he's agitated.
18:52Anyone would be.
18:53Okay, yep, you're right.
18:54You're probably right.
18:55I'm probably reading too much into this.
18:58It's just that...
18:59Look, you said it yourself, right?
19:02He went through those first couple of bottles of pills really fast,
19:05and then he made sure he got them refilled right away,
19:09back to the pharmacy.
19:12Listen, that is how it starts,
19:15and then it just gets worse from there.
19:18The situation sounds familiar to you.
19:22I know it when I see it.
19:26Are you telling me that you have a history with addiction, Sienna?
19:32You're starting to piss me off.
19:36Look, I don't remember a lot about Risa,
19:39but from what I do, she's a tough nut, okay?
19:43She's a guarded person.
19:44She's very suspicious.
19:46So that means you can't push her too hard,
19:49or you will spook her.
19:50Not to mention, you might tip off Matt that you're on his trail.
19:52Okay, you showing up suddenly wouldn't cause her to put a guard up too?
19:57I mean, we're on good terms in the end.
20:00She wasn't upset with you when you quit being spider
20:03and moved back to Genoa City?
20:04Maybe she was.
20:06But Risa is not a person who holds a grudge, okay?
20:11I think she would be happy to see me.
20:16I don't like it.
20:17Why?
20:18Because you didn't come up with the idea first?
20:20No, because I'm trying to save you.
20:23Look, all we did was mention Risa's name in the color drain right out of your face.
20:26I do not want to put you through that, Adam.
20:29Nor do I want to do it to Chelsea O'Connor.
20:33Do what, Nick?
20:36Adam remembered some things about Risa.
20:39I think I know where she was living back then.
20:42And my guess is she's probably still there.
20:45That gives me a great place to start.
20:47No, that gives us a great place to start.
20:50I already told you how I feel about that.
20:53Nick, why are you working so hard to keep me out of this?
20:57I mean, is there some other reason why you don't want me going to Vegas with you?
21:12Sharon, will you please talk some sense in here?
21:15I understand Nick's concerns about you taking this on.
21:21See?
21:22You had amnesia, Adam.
21:25You thought you were another person.
21:27That's a lot of trauma to come back from.
21:29It's all true.
21:32I was living as Spider.
21:34I didn't want to be Adam Newman.
21:37But that was the past, Sharon.
21:40I've chased those demons out of my life,
21:42so I can revisit that time if it helps rid the world of Matt Clark.
21:48And be honest, do you really want Nick being a Lone Ranger and going after Matt by himself?
21:54No, I do not.
21:56Oh, give me a break.
21:58Nick, we've talked about this.
21:59I do not believe you're in any condition to face Matt Clark on your own.
22:04If not, Adam, then it should be someone else.
22:06And that's not going to work because Reza will only talk to me,
22:09so that's why I need to go with you.
22:12Okay.
22:13I don't like it either, but he makes a good point.
22:17Okay, I have moved on.
22:19So let me help you move on.
22:21Let's just go after this son of a bitch together.
22:24Are you sure you're up for this?
22:27100%.
22:30Are you saying that you've had a problem with drugs?
22:35No.
22:37No, but I have been close to people who have.
22:41And I'm sorry, Noah.
22:42It's just there have been...
22:44There have been things with your dad, weird things that I have noticed that are just all too familiar.
22:53Look, I'm probably oversensitive to this, but I'm not trying to hurt you.
23:00I'm just trying now.
23:02No, no.
23:02I know you are.
23:04It's just, yeah, dad burned through those pills pretty fast, but pharmacies monitor that stuff pretty closely, don't they?
23:10I mean, that's why he went in early, because he wanted to make sure that it was ready whenever he
23:15needed it.
23:17Exactly.
23:18Right?
23:18No delay.
23:19Ooh, as he's on top of it.
23:22You sound like you know a lot about this.
23:25Yeah, more than I wish.
23:28You said it was someone close to you who had the problem with drugs?
23:35It was my brother.
23:37He died of an overdose.
23:43Yeah, I'm so sorry.
23:46Yeah, it's why the news of Matt running drugs disgusted me so much, because he knew.
23:54He knew about my brother.
23:56He knew how I felt about drugs.
23:58And then he went ahead and he got other kids addicted and got him killed.
24:03Because he didn't care.
24:07And I want you to know I would have left him, even if it hadn't been for us.
24:18I just...
24:23When I saw that look of calm on Nick's face after he popped a couple of pills, it just...
24:31It gave me chills.
24:34Because it's the same look that my brother had on his face when he was high.
24:40Yeah, I remember you mentioning your brother and Al, and we were locked in that room together.
24:47Yeah, I remember we used his necklace to help us escape.
24:53I like to think that he was there with us.
24:57You know, trying to help us get out.
25:04I loved my brother more than anyone in this world.
25:15But at the end, he just...
25:22It really wasn't him anymore, you know?
25:24He just...
25:25He became someone else.
25:28Anything my dad has headed down there to?
25:32No.
25:34Not necessarily.
25:38But I just felt I had to say something.
25:41You know, because...
25:44I wish somebody...
25:47Would have warned me about my brother sooner.
25:49Because if they had, maybe...
25:54Maybe I could have done something to stop him.
26:03Mom, um...
26:04You're going to wear a hole in the floor if you keep pacing like that.
26:06If I don't work out some of this anger, I'm going to explode.
26:11There's nothing you can do about it until Dad gets home.
26:14Yeah, whatever that is.
26:15He knows I want to talk to him, so he's deliberately staying away.
26:18I'm sure he's hoping you'll calm down a little before then.
26:20Oh, well, then he would be wrong.
26:23Because I will never accept what he's done to Jack.
26:27Just give him a call.
26:28I have called him all day.
26:30He hasn't called me back.
26:31Well, call him again.
26:33Leave him a message.
26:34It may not do anything, but it will make you feel better.
26:48Yeah, it's me again.
26:51I need you to come home immediately.
26:53We have a lot to discuss.
26:59Do you feel better?
27:00No, I don't.
27:07You know, I hate to say it.
27:11But I don't think taking Jack prisoner is Victor's entire plan.
27:17Why would you say that?
27:19Because he said that getting Chancellor back from Phyllis would only be the beginning.
27:24Well, that's a terrifying thought.
27:27Yeah, but it sounds just like him, doesn't he?
27:29Yes, it does.
27:31Which is why we need to be the one to force Phyllis' hand.
27:35You mean with your father?
27:37No, I mean, in addition to whatever other crazy ideas he has, we need to step in with our own
27:44plan.
27:45Otherwise, this whole thing is going to get even more out of control than it already has, Mom.
27:50I don't disagree.
27:51But you and I both know you can't force Phyllis to do anything.
27:56Watch me.
28:00Thank you for sharing that with me.
28:06Look, I didn't mean to freak you out about it.
28:10I just, if I didn't bring it up and something happened, I just, I would hate myself for not saying
28:18anything.
28:20And I love that you care so much, and I know that you're doing this for me, but my dad
28:27watched his own mother struggle with alcohol, and it changed him.
28:33And I made him hyper-vigilant.
28:35That's why I don't think you would ever give in to the pills.
28:37It's not always a choice.
28:39Noah, good people, they do get addicted.
28:42What did it happen?
28:43Not to him, not Nicholas Newman.
28:45No, that man is a rock.
28:49When all is falling apart for our family, Dad is the one that they turn to.
28:56He's the problem solver.
28:59When there's chaos happening all around, Dad is the one who is always standing tall and strong.
29:08You really do look up to him, don't you?
29:12He's kind of a hero.
29:14I would never tell him that, because I think it would embarrass him.
29:17But if I can be half the man that he is, I'd be saying something.
29:25Okay, well, you're saying that I don't have anything to worry about?
29:29Well, with our family, there's always something to worry about.
29:32But no, I haven't seen my dad take any pills the last couple of days.
29:35I really do think that he's doing better.
29:41Okay, well, if you're not worried, then I'm not going to worry either.
29:44Good.
29:46Dad's got this covered.
29:47He always does.
30:13How's your life doing?
30:16Oh, it's good.
30:17It's good.
30:18It's a little numb.
30:20I think it maybe fell asleep while I was listening to Adam.
30:24I kind of wish the rest of me would have nodded up, too.
30:27You were working really hard to convince him not to help you.
30:31Um, yeah, well, you know, you know as well as anyone, you know, the painful memories that can be brought
30:40back up to him.
30:42Well, he knows that Adam said it himself.
30:44He's willing to still put everything on the line to help you.
30:49And who would have ever imagined that would happen?
30:51Yeah, Adam's changed.
30:53And I don't want him to change back.
30:56And I don't want him to go to Vegas for the same reason I don't want anyone else I care
31:00about to go.
31:00Not you, not Noah, not even Sienna.
31:03Matt's very dangerous.
31:05Well, Adam's going anyway, so you might as well get used to it.
31:11Yeah, well, who's coming back?
31:13What do you mean?
31:14What happens if Adam gets there and he just starts remembering all this stuff, you know?
31:21I mean, he admitted in himself he's locked away a bunch of bad stuff.
31:27And, you know.
31:29You're afraid of him going back to being the old Adam?
31:34Being forced to relive a traumatic experience, even peripherally, can churn up all these terrible things.
31:42And the Adam that we have right now is someone we can trust and lean on and we can depend
31:48on him.
31:50And love.
31:52He's worked very hard to be the person that he is.
31:56Very hard.
31:57And I would feel terrible if we asked him to help us and it caused him to backslide.
32:05Or even worse.
32:10Hey.
32:14It's late.
32:15Where did you go?
32:17To see Nick.
32:19Find her.
32:22I see.
32:26What's wrong?
32:27I think you know the answer to that.
32:29It's going to be fine, Chelsea.
32:33I'm going to be fine.
32:36But this animal, Matt Clark, has been terrorizing Nick and Sharon and other members of my family for long enough.
32:42And if I can do anything to bring him down, I'm going to do...
32:45I agree.
32:46That man is dangerous and unpredictable.
32:50But if I'm being honest, there's someone else in this scenario that scares me just as much.
32:57Spider.
33:05Here you go.
33:09Do you remember the other day when you commended me for thinking just like Dad?
33:15Oh, I apologize for that.
33:17Nobody thinks like your father.
33:19Well, there's a good side to that.
33:21Should always have a plan B.
33:24And if that doesn't work out, then you go through the entire alphabet until you find something that does.
33:31Like what?
33:33Well, Dad thought that he had leverage against Billy by kidnapping Jack.
33:36But Phyllis is our real enemy.
33:38She always has been.
33:40She needs to be our target.
33:43Well, he obviously knows that now.
33:46But you and I both know that she's not going to roll over for Jack.
33:50But she might if we find something nearer and dearer to bargain with.
33:57Are you talking about getting Summer and Daniel to side with us?
34:01Getting them on our side would definitely help.
34:05Well, from what I hear, they're already not speaking to her.
34:08We need something stronger.
34:11Phyllis needs to know that unless she gives us back everything that she's stolen from us, she's never going to
34:15see her children again.
34:18I know.
34:19I know you don't think that's going to work.
34:20I know Dad doesn't think it's going to work.
34:22But I really do believe it's our only option.
34:24And I'm furious with myself for letting anyone talk me out of it.
34:28So, I am headed to Milan on the first flight out.
34:35How are the empanadas?
34:36Oh, they're the best.
34:38Would you still have for that salad?
34:39Yeah, why not?
34:42Well, I see you got your appetite back.
34:44Yeah, well, I hadn't lost mine.
34:45But you, you haven't touched anything on your plate.
34:48I said I wasn't very hungry.
34:52It's because I brought up the pills.
34:53No, no, no.
34:55Because listen, I mean, if your dad's not taking anything anymore, I think it's great.
35:00No, it isn't that.
35:01Okay?
35:02It's just, I keep thinking about Matt and how he lives to make our lives miserable.
35:07And there's not a damn thing that we can do about it until we track him down and stop him.
35:11Yeah, but how do we stop him?
35:14Because according to the law, even with those texts that he's sending us, as creepy as they are, there's not
35:21going to be enough to put them away again.
35:23Yeah, that's why I'm not even going to show those texts to my dad.
35:25It's just going to frustrate him even more than it already has.
35:28Yeah, you mentioned that you were worried about what he might do.
35:32As long as Matt's still out there, dad is going to want to find him and bring him back.
35:38And that could end very badly.
35:43I share every one of your concerns about Adam, but I would be more worried if you were taking this
35:51on alone.
35:52So please, at least bring some Newman security with you.
35:56To Vegas?
35:58You're looking for Matt Clark.
36:00He's dangerous.
36:02No.
36:04No.
36:05If we show up to Vegas with an army, it'll cause Riza to head for the hills.
36:10And if Matt's there, he'll run too.
36:14Maybe that's for the best.
36:17Do you think that Matt's ever going to stop?
36:20Because he won't.
36:22The only way he's going to stop is if I stop him.
36:25Nick.
36:26Look, if this lead pans out, it's going to be over.
36:29All right, just hang on to that.
36:34No.
36:35I want to believe that.
36:37I want to believe that we are all safe.
36:39And that everyone's going to be okay.
36:44I promise.
36:47This is going to be over soon.
36:51Sorry, Adam, but I can't pretend that you go into Vegas and diving back to an old life of yours
36:56doesn't scare me.
36:57I'm not diving back into anything.
37:01I'm just going to talk to somebody that I used to know to help my family.
37:05And I can handle whatever comes with that.
37:07What about your dad and everything that's going on with the company?
37:11Victoria and Nicky are here.
37:13And right now we're just waiting and hoping anyway.
37:25Nicky needs all the help that he can get.
37:27It's really sweet that you want to have Nick's back.
37:30But I don't want to lose the man that I love.
37:33The man that has worked so hard to be the best partner and best father that I could ever imagine.
37:40Justin, you're not going to lose me.
37:44Okay?
37:47You and Connor, you're my life.
37:49And I would never do anything to jeopardize that.
37:54Okay, but going back and dealing with this time of my life, it might make me even stronger.
38:00Make me see that what I was then is nothing compared to what I am now and what I want.
38:05It's you, certainly.
