00:02:19do
00:02:33Victoria?
00:02:35Oh, good evening.
00:02:37Here, you've been out of town?
00:02:39Really? Yeah, well, I guess word gets around.
00:02:43I spoke with Summer earlier about Harrison's trip to see her this summer,
00:02:47and she mentioned you were just in Milan.
00:02:49I was.
00:02:50It was good to see her.
00:02:52I hope you're being on another continent means you had nothing to do with your father's latest attacks against my
00:02:57family.
00:03:05I see you're on your own, too.
00:03:09Seems that way.
00:03:11You want to share some fries with me?
00:03:12I don't think I'm hungry for much of anything, but if you'll excuse me, I could definitely use a drink.
00:03:19You don't look much better than you did this morning.
00:03:22Still no word from Diane?
00:03:23I have sent more texts and voicemails than I could count, and the silence is deafening.
00:03:29Oh, I'm sorry.
00:03:31And I am at my wit's end.
00:03:34What are you going to do?
00:03:36All I can do, I'm going to follow my brother's advice.
00:03:40You're going to follow Billy's advice about something?
00:03:43He wisely suggested that I give my wife time and space to sort things out.
00:03:48Not that I like sitting and waiting, but it appears patience is my strongest option.
00:03:53How about you?
00:03:55Your being here suggests that things aren't any better between you and Victor, either.
00:04:13Hi, goodness.
00:04:14What a nice surprise.
00:04:16Hi, Grandpa.
00:04:16Thanks.
00:04:18So?
00:04:19So, I have some questions for you.
00:04:22Whatever you want to know.
00:04:23Okay, well, you told me that Grandma moved out, but you didn't want to talk about why.
00:04:28Hmm.
00:04:29Hmm.
00:04:30Is that why you're here?
00:04:32I saw her, and she told me her side.
00:04:34Oh, yeah?
00:04:36What'd she tell you?
00:04:38It breaks my heart that the two of you are apart.
00:04:40And I also saw Kyle, and he told me that his parents have split up as well.
00:04:47But I think that you already knew that, because you wanted it to happen.
00:04:52So you made it happen.
00:04:55You masterminded the whole thing, didn't you?
00:05:00I have no problem sharing a coffee with you.
00:05:02You just look like you're pretty deep in it, and I don't want to interrupt you.
00:05:05I'm supposed to be meeting Sienna here anyway.
00:05:07Yeah, it's strange she and I haven't crossed paths yet.
00:05:11Yeah, Sienna's been staying pretty close to the ranch until all of a sudden that clock is over.
00:05:16That's understandable.
00:05:18But it's hard to imagine the Sienna I knew in L.A. being a homebody.
00:05:23Okay, here you go.
00:05:25Extra foamy, just the way you like it.
00:05:28Honest, oh, yeah.
00:05:30You have no idea.
00:05:32Oh, and it looks like you're running low.
00:05:35Can I get you a refill?
00:05:36Oh, if I have any more caffeine today, I will be awake until next week.
00:05:40But thank you.
00:05:42Audra takes hers extra for me, too.
00:05:45Twinsies.
00:05:48Well, now that we're twinsies, you have to join me.
00:05:51You sure it's not just about the pecan muffin?
00:05:53You'd share it, right?
00:05:54Yeah, maybe a bite or two.
00:05:56Yeah.
00:05:56And six.
00:06:04You know, not so long ago, you mentioned that you weren't sure if you were going to stay in Genoa
00:06:08City or not.
00:06:10Have you made a decision?
00:06:13Well, my family's still going through a lot.
00:06:16Legacy wiped out.
00:06:18Matt Clark's still on the loose.
00:06:20Should you even be out?
00:06:22Isn't it dangerous?
00:06:24I'm not going to let some psycho dictate how I live my life.
00:06:28You always were a badass.
00:06:30Yeah, I'm afraid it's in the genes.
00:06:33You know, watching out for your family, staying around to help them.
00:06:38You are a very jutiful son.
00:06:41Turns out I missed them a lot more than I thought.
00:06:44Feels good to be home.
00:06:46What about London?
00:06:48Your club?
00:06:50That pretty much runs itself.
00:06:52You know, I do plan on flying over periodically to check in.
00:06:56You loved that life.
00:06:59The club life, the energy, the vibe.
00:07:02Won't you miss it?
00:07:03I won't have to.
00:07:04I'm in the process of opening a new club right here in town with Sienna.
00:07:09That's great.
00:07:10Yeah, we're really excited about it.
00:07:13We're basically going to recreate the shadow room right here in Genoa City.
00:07:17I was out of the country when that all went down.
00:07:20Although, I did hear that my father had Jack held.
00:07:24I'm a dunked.
00:07:26Yes, it was a bit extreme, I agree.
00:07:29But your father is safe, and Chancellor is back with the Newmans where it belongs.
00:07:34And that makes what Victor did okay?
00:07:36Even though my mother has moved out of the house, taken a room upstairs, and is no longer speaking to
00:07:40my father.
00:07:42I'm sorry to hear that.
00:07:44Huh?
00:07:44But all's fair.
00:07:46You're referring to what happened on the yacht.
00:07:49Something.
00:07:50Something about another woman?
00:07:51No, not just any woman.
00:07:54Patty Williams.
00:07:56What?
00:07:57How is that possible?
00:07:59She claims she has been rehabilitated and been released.
00:08:03You can't seriously think that my father had anything to do with that.
00:08:06Of course I do.
00:08:07Patty Williams was thrown into the mix to mess up my parents' marriage, just like when Victor used Audra to
00:08:12come between Claire and me.
00:08:13It's not my father's fault.
00:08:14He can hardly be blamed for pushing them into bed.
00:08:18Jack had a choice, and he chose poorly.
00:08:22God, how I wish I could turn back the clock.
00:08:25Erase my relapse.
00:08:26Erase your attempts to save me.
00:08:29Erase everything that made Victor want to come after you.
00:08:31Victor has never needed much of an excuse to go for blood.
00:08:34You and I are both well aware of that.
00:08:37Well, it wasn't just that night that changed everything.
00:08:40I often wonder how different things would be if none of us had accepted that invitation from Aristotle to Ma
00:08:48to his chateau in Nice.
00:08:50I mean, there would be no cane.
00:08:52No AI.
00:08:53Nicky, I have gone down that road.
00:08:55Nothing good comes of it because we can't go back.
00:08:59We have to face where we are in the present, in the moment.
00:09:04Face it head on, like it or not.
00:09:07Well, in this moment, I'm not holding out much hope of anything changing between Victor and me.
00:09:15That's why I've asked Victoria to go collect some more of my things.
00:09:20Do you know how much it freaks me out to think that the grandfather that I love so much and
00:09:24respect so much would be capable of something like this?
00:09:27Something that my aunt would have done?
00:09:30Your aunt?
00:09:31Your grandfather isn't anything like your aunt Jordan.
00:09:34You serious?
00:09:35Kidnapping Jack was extreme.
00:09:40Sweetheart.
00:09:44My company was taken from me.
00:09:46They took it from me.
00:09:47I'd be damned if I don't do everything in my power to get it back.
00:09:50I don't give a damn what it costs.
00:10:02I understand what your legacy means to you.
00:10:06And I also know that you take your work very personally.
00:10:13But the end doesn't always justify the means.
00:10:16Sweetheart, whatever happened in that boat is between Jack and the woman.
00:10:20What about your marriage, Grandpa?
00:10:21Do you know that I want Chancellor back?
00:10:25What did your grandmother decide to do?
00:10:27She supports Jack Abbott.
00:10:29Not me.
00:10:32Look, I know how devastated Grandma was when we lost Chancellor.
00:10:35I think it should be some consolation that you got it back.
00:10:38But what would have happened if Phyllis hadn't given Chancellor back?
00:10:41What would you have done with Jack?
00:10:43Would you have made good on your threat to him?
00:10:44Sweetheart, we got Chancellor back.
00:10:46That's all that matters.
00:10:47You say it's business, but given how angry you still are at Jack for the way that he acted when
00:10:53Grandma was struggling with her sobriety and the way that you hate the rest of his family, I have a
00:10:59hard time believing it's not personal.
00:11:06Wow.
00:11:07It's been like that.
00:11:08You should be the one running Numa Media.
00:11:11Oh, that's right.
00:11:12It's no longer a company.
00:11:13That's right.
00:11:14Because it was stolen, along with the rest of my family's entities.
00:11:18Your uncle Billy played a part in that theft, by the way.
00:11:20Except Phyllis was in control of those companies when Victor decided to abduct my father and stick him on a
00:11:26yacht with Patty Williams.
00:11:27Okay, so as long as you're throwing blame around, why not blame Phyllis for your father's indiscretion?
00:11:31Maybe she should have acted sooner.
00:11:33Okay, how about the drugs?
00:11:35Excuse me?
00:11:36You didn't know?
00:11:38Their whiskey was spiked by a man who knows my father has addiction issues, knows how hard he works to
00:11:44stay clean.
00:11:45Is there no depth to which Victor won't sink?
00:11:47Like maybe Patty's spiked your father's drink?
00:11:50Or do you have actual proof that the drinks were spiked, other than what Jack claims?
00:11:56You newmans.
00:11:57There will always be an excuse for the old man, won't there?
00:12:00No matter how heinous his behavior, it's just dear old dad protecting the family, and you're all just fine with
00:12:06it.
00:12:06I'm not going to let you blame my father for everything that happened on that yacht.
00:12:10Especially when it sounds like the real issue for your parents' separation is the choice that your father made.
00:12:19Sounds like you expect this separation to last a while.
00:12:23I don't know, but for now the athletic club is home.
00:12:32God, I miss the ranch so much.
00:12:36My own bed, riding concerto in the morning just as the sun is peeking over the ridge.
00:12:43There's just so many things.
00:12:46And I miss Victor.
00:12:49I mean, as furious as I am with him, I still love him.
00:12:56I hope that we can find our way through this.
00:12:59But if there is going to be a hope of a reconciliation, he's going to have to reach out first.
00:13:06Well, I hate to be the one to say this, but if those are the terms, this estrangement will indeed
00:13:12last a long time.
00:13:14Thanks for the pep talk.
00:13:15I'm just saying, no matter how high the stakes, Victor is completely incapable of admitting fault.
00:13:22Of course it was personal.
00:13:24I mean, my company was stolen.
00:13:27My family was a time.
00:13:28I had to do something.
00:13:30What would have happened if Phyllis and Billy had called your bluff?
00:13:35Would you have gone as far as to hurt Jack?
00:13:39You know, sometimes in life and in business, things get tough, you know, and you cross the line.
00:13:45Not everyone would have gone as far as you did.
00:13:49Sweetheart.
00:13:53Are you forgetting how I grew up?
00:13:56I grew up in a world of hard knocks.
00:13:59You know, I grew up in an orphanage where you look over your shoulder all the time.
00:14:05See if someone is coming for you, so you learn to find dirty.
00:14:15I've never forgotten.
00:14:21Mmm.
00:14:22It was so good.
00:14:24You know, I never found a latte in London as tasty as the ones that I grew up drinking like
00:14:28here in Crimson Lights.
00:14:30Yeah, no offense, but what about that cute little place we used to go to all the time?
00:14:34They had the best coffee in the world.
00:14:36Oh, yeah, you were all about the pistachio lattes.
00:14:38Yeah, always, always.
00:14:39As soon as you walk in the door, they start making it right on the spot.
00:14:42You remember.
00:14:43Yeah, yeah.
00:14:43I hate to say, though, that place closed down last year.
00:14:47Oh, no.
00:14:48I was actually just thinking about it.
00:14:52Well, I've been thinking a lot about London lately.
00:14:56But that's probably because we keep running into each other.
00:14:59Yeah, yeah.
00:15:00Our run-ins have brought us some memories for me, too.
00:15:02Yeah.
00:15:04Of the good times.
00:15:06Before it got bad.
00:15:07Between us.
00:15:13Do you ever think about it?
00:15:17About us?
00:15:19Yeah.
00:15:20Yeah, I do sometimes.
00:15:24Just...
00:15:27It's hard not to go to the dark part.
00:15:31I know.
00:15:34But we had some serious fun, didn't we?
00:15:39You remember those times, too, don't you?
00:15:47Of course, I remember the good times.
00:15:50We had a lot of fun.
00:15:52We did.
00:15:56You know, sometimes I...
00:16:00I can't help but wonder
00:16:02what might have happened if...
00:16:06if I hadn't lost a baby.
00:16:09I'm so sorry you had to go through that alone.
00:16:13Yeah.
00:16:16I'll always regret that.
00:16:20You're a good man, Noah.
00:16:29Hey.
00:16:30Hey, there you are.
00:16:32No wonder where you were.
00:16:33Yeah, well, I'm here now.
00:16:34So, I miss anything?
00:16:36No, I'm just catching up.
00:16:38Yeah, I was just telling Noah
00:16:39that I can't believe you and I
00:16:41haven't run into each other
00:16:42since you relocated to Genoa City.
00:16:44Well, I guess it's not as small a world
00:16:45as they say it is.
00:16:47It's crazy, right?
00:16:48That we both met in L.A.
00:16:50and now we both are ending up
00:16:52calling Genoa City home.
00:16:53Although, you must miss
00:16:55that crazy Hollywood lifestyle.
00:16:59Yeah, you know,
00:17:00I don't really miss it
00:17:00as much as I thought I would.
00:17:02But that is mostly
00:17:04because of this guy.
00:17:12So, what happens now?
00:17:15Now that you have Chancellor,
00:17:16is that going to be enough?
00:17:18Can you use it as the foundation
00:17:19for your next empire?
00:17:21Yeah.
00:17:24I'll use Chancellor
00:17:25to go after Phyllis.
00:17:28As a weapon?
00:17:31Yeah.
00:17:33By giving me back Chancellor.
00:17:36She gave me the means
00:17:37to take her down.
00:17:40I know it seems crazy
00:17:42hoping that Victor
00:17:42will admit he's wrong
00:17:43and beg for giving me.
00:17:44If he had given an ounce of humility,
00:17:46he would do exactly that.
00:17:50Of course, you're right.
00:17:52I mean, he never admits
00:17:53to any wrongdoing.
00:17:54If anything, he doubles down.
00:17:55How is he going to justify
00:17:57drugging me,
00:17:58kidnapping me,
00:18:00trapping me in a boat
00:18:01in the middle of Lake Michigan?
00:18:03Oh, easy for him,
00:18:05saving the family legacy.
00:18:07No harm, no foul.
00:18:08Only the damage
00:18:09could be irreparable.
00:18:12Are you talking now
00:18:13about the woman
00:18:14who was on the yacht with you?
00:18:15You know what?
00:18:15I'm not ready to talk
00:18:16about that just yet.
00:18:17Well,
00:18:19when I ran into Diane
00:18:20at the athletic club,
00:18:22she was in the middle
00:18:24of a confrontation
00:18:25with Patty Williams.
00:18:27And I was in shock.
00:18:29I couldn't believe
00:18:30that she was out.
00:18:32She's telling people
00:18:33she has been rehabilitated.
00:18:35And I didn't realize
00:18:37what it could mean
00:18:38until later
00:18:39because I knew
00:18:40that you certainly would...
00:18:44Was she the woman
00:18:45on the yacht?
00:18:48Yeah.
00:18:50And something happened.
00:18:52Something you regret.
00:18:55I love Diane
00:18:56with everything in me.
00:18:58You know that.
00:18:59I do know that, Jack.
00:19:01But if Victor
00:19:02set up this scenario
00:19:04to have Patty seduce you,
00:19:06no wonder you're so held
00:19:07that I'm getting vengeance
00:19:08on my husband.
00:19:11If you concede
00:19:12that it was Victor
00:19:13who put my father
00:19:15on that yacht
00:19:15against his will,
00:19:16how can you ignore
00:19:17the fact that Patty Williams
00:19:18was there too?
00:19:19Do you think
00:19:20Daddy Dearest
00:19:21didn't arrange that?
00:19:22Didn't set the trap?
00:19:23Yes.
00:19:24My father's machinations
00:19:26can be extreme.
00:19:28Way to not answer
00:19:29a question.
00:19:30The fact is
00:19:31Victor had one intention
00:19:33and he got exactly
00:19:34the outcome he wanted.
00:19:36Whatever my father's
00:19:37intentions may
00:19:38or may not have been.
00:19:40Again,
00:19:41Jack could have said no.
00:19:42He was drugged, Victoria.
00:19:44Why not suspect Patty?
00:19:46Why not?
00:19:47We all know
00:19:47what she's capable of.
00:19:48You don't actually believe that.
00:19:50My father was accosted
00:19:51by thugs
00:19:52who drugged him
00:19:52and threw him in a van.
00:19:53Who do you think
00:19:54arranged that?
00:19:55How about the man
00:19:56who told Billy
00:19:57that he would never
00:19:58see my father again
00:19:59if he didn't hand over
00:20:00Chancellor
00:20:00and then send him
00:20:01a photo
00:20:02of my father
00:20:03to prove he had him?
00:20:04Then once on that yacht,
00:20:06he was given
00:20:07a different drug.
00:20:09I would have expected
00:20:10that given your mother
00:20:11is a recovering alcoholic,
00:20:13you'd be a little
00:20:13more sympathetic
00:20:14to someone giving
00:20:16my father
00:20:16a recovering addict,
00:20:18a controlled substance.
00:20:21Two substances, technically.
00:20:22The only evidence
00:20:23that you have
00:20:24of this drugging
00:20:25is what your father
00:20:26has told you.
00:20:28I'm going to ask you
00:20:29the same question
00:20:30I asked Claire.
00:20:32Will the Newmans
00:20:33ever condemn Victor
00:20:34for the way
00:20:35he crosses lines?
00:20:37Hurts people?
00:20:38Or are you all
00:20:39so brainwashed
00:20:40you'll just fall in line
00:20:41no matter what he does
00:20:42or what he's after?
00:20:45Victoria, you promised me
00:20:47on New Year's Eve
00:20:48you would do your best
00:20:49to keep the peace
00:20:50between our families.
00:20:53So much for
00:20:54New Year's resolutions.
00:20:55Just what I want
00:20:56for both of our families.
00:20:57How can you say that
00:21:00when at best
00:21:01you're turning a blind eye
00:21:03and at the worst
00:21:04you are wholly complicit
00:21:05in your father's
00:21:06commitment to destroy
00:21:07my family
00:21:08unless I'm wrong
00:21:09about something here.
00:21:10Don't waste your breath.
00:21:11No, you're not wrong.
00:21:22You know,
00:21:23Atra is running
00:21:23a media company now.
00:21:25Co-running.
00:21:27No, no, no.
00:21:27No false modesty.
00:21:28It's a big deal.
00:21:30A suit
00:21:31in the corporate world.
00:21:33That is the last thing
00:21:34I would have imagined
00:21:34you doing
00:21:35when I knew you
00:21:36back in the day.
00:21:37Well, a lot has changed
00:21:38since then.
00:21:39I'm a different person now.
00:21:41Yeah, I can see that.
00:21:44So, uh,
00:21:45you still have any room left
00:21:46because I was eyeing
00:21:47the goodies in the case?
00:21:48Yeah, let's do it.
00:21:49Mmm.
00:21:50It was nice
00:21:51running into you.
00:21:52Oh, what?
00:21:53What about your muffin?
00:21:55It's a nice muffin.
00:21:56Yeah, no, it's all yours.
00:21:57Thanks.
00:22:12What do you want?
00:22:13Every time I see you with Noah,
00:22:15it becomes more clear to me
00:22:17why you failed
00:22:18when I heard three minutes
00:22:18had come between Kyle and Claire.
00:22:20If you find somewhere else
00:22:21to sit, I'm busy.
00:22:23So, smoking is an actual activity.
00:22:26Would you just please
00:22:27leave me alone?
00:22:28It's pretty weird
00:22:28seeing Sienna in town, isn't it?
00:22:31Look over your shoulder and watch.
00:22:34I don't care
00:22:35one way or the other.
00:22:36And you expect me
00:22:37to believe that?
00:22:40Sienna only thinks
00:22:41she knows what went down
00:22:42with you and me in LA.
00:22:44Hardly a threat.
00:22:46That's, uh, 180
00:22:47from the days you freaked out
00:22:49about Claire
00:22:49slipping around
00:22:50and finding the truth.
00:22:51Look, I have more
00:22:51important things to do,
00:22:52so if you could just
00:22:54please leave.
00:22:55I will, I will,
00:22:56but not to answer
00:22:56one question.
00:22:58Anything to get you
00:22:58out of my hair.
00:23:00Do you always set your sights
00:23:01on men who are involved
00:23:02with other women?
00:23:05Are you serious?
00:23:08Some advice.
00:23:10If the answer is no,
00:23:11you might want to
00:23:12at least avoid the guy
00:23:13who's dating the woman
00:23:14who has inside information
00:23:15about our deepest,
00:23:18darkest secret.
00:23:23I'm not sure I follow.
00:23:24How are you going to use
00:23:25Chancellor as a weapon?
00:23:27Well,
00:23:29it won't be without risk,
00:23:32but it'll be worth it.
00:23:34You know,
00:23:35your mother is going to
00:23:35join me in this fight,
00:23:37right?
00:23:38And I know how
00:23:39very bright you are.
00:23:41So what do you think
00:23:42if you joined
00:23:43your mother and me?
00:23:45I want you to learn
00:23:46by my side
00:23:47how to run a big
00:23:48home run like this.
00:23:51What do you think?
00:23:54What Victor has done
00:23:55is extreme
00:23:56even for him.
00:23:58He has brought
00:23:58unconscionable
00:23:59to a whole new level.
00:24:00I have to respond
00:24:02to this,
00:24:02and I appreciate
00:24:03you understanding
00:24:04my position.
00:24:05I also appreciate
00:24:06even more
00:24:07that you might be willing
00:24:08to help me
00:24:09teach him a lesson
00:24:10that is long overdue.
00:24:13Okay, Jack.
00:24:14Have you changed
00:24:14your mind?
00:24:15No.
00:24:16No,
00:24:17not at all.
00:24:18But now that
00:24:19Patty is involved,
00:24:20it changes everything.
00:24:22I mean,
00:24:22if she really
00:24:23is out there,
00:24:24if she is lurking around,
00:24:26then Victor's
00:24:26not the only teacher.
00:24:27I am well aware
00:24:29of the multiple threats
00:24:30I am facing.
00:24:31I can handle her.
00:24:32Can't you?
00:24:34Did you?
00:24:35Nikki.
00:24:36Look,
00:24:37I want Victor
00:24:38to learn his lesson.
00:24:39But more than that,
00:24:40I want this damn feud
00:24:42to end.
00:24:43But if you want revenge,
00:24:45that's not going
00:24:46to end it.
00:24:46It's only going
00:24:47to incite Victor more.
00:24:49And this escalation
00:24:51has got to stop.
00:24:52And you and I
00:24:52both know he's not
00:24:53going to be the one
00:24:54to do it.
00:24:54It sounds like you
00:24:55want me to do nothing
00:24:56to let him get away
00:24:57with assaulting me,
00:24:59my family,
00:24:59my marriage.
00:25:00That is not an option.
00:25:01I know how you feel.
00:25:05But that madwoman
00:25:06is back in our lives
00:25:07again,
00:25:08no matter how it happened.
00:25:09What if you know
00:25:10mad at?
00:25:11You know damn well
00:25:12how it happened.
00:25:13I understand
00:25:14that you want
00:25:15to strike back.
00:25:17And I wish
00:25:18that Victor
00:25:18could suddenly
00:25:19see all of the
00:25:20damage that he
00:25:21has caused,
00:25:22but I don't know.
00:25:24I mean,
00:25:24maybe enough
00:25:25is enough.
00:25:26Jack,
00:25:26maybe it's time
00:25:27for you to lay
00:25:28down your sword
00:25:29and end this feud
00:25:31before more damage
00:25:32is done.
00:25:36The Newmans
00:25:37will always
00:25:38defend their leader
00:25:39no matter how
00:25:39disgusting his
00:25:40actions are.
00:25:41As I told Kyle,
00:25:43I had nothing to do
00:25:44with my father's plan.
00:25:45You were still
00:25:45complicit.
00:25:46The family benefited.
00:25:47You got your company
00:25:48back,
00:25:48but that's just business
00:25:49as your father likes
00:25:50to say,
00:25:51am I right?
00:25:51Diane,
00:25:52I'm so sorry
00:25:52that you've been hurt,
00:25:53that you've hurt you.
00:25:54Victoria,
00:25:55when will it be enough?
00:25:57How far is Victor
00:25:58going to take things?
00:25:59When will anyone
00:26:00in your family
00:26:01condemn that man
00:26:02for anything?
00:26:03You know,
00:26:04I know that I have
00:26:04issues with your mother,
00:26:05but at least she had
00:26:06the courage to stand
00:26:07up to him
00:26:08and act on it.
00:26:09You stood up to Victor
00:26:10for Claire when she
00:26:11and I were a couple.
00:26:11Why can't you do that now?
00:26:12Oh, because she's
00:26:13her father's daughter.
00:26:14That's why.
00:26:15My father only wants
00:26:16to get back
00:26:16what belongs to us.
00:26:18I know you tell
00:26:18yourself that,
00:26:20but Cain and Phyllis
00:26:21stole those companies,
00:26:22not Jack.
00:26:24Victor is just using it
00:26:25or trying to use it
00:26:27as yet another way
00:26:28to destroy Jack
00:26:29and our family.
00:26:30If the Abbots
00:26:30lost to Beau,
00:26:32and they were
00:26:32fighting to get it back,
00:26:34there is no line
00:26:35that they wouldn't cross.
00:26:36But when my father
00:26:36does it,
00:26:37he's a monster.
00:26:38What Victor did
00:26:40was vicious
00:26:41and cruel
00:26:42and very,
00:26:43very personal.
00:26:44And he's taking
00:26:45pleasure in it,
00:26:46which is sick.
00:26:47I mean,
00:26:47how can you be
00:26:48okay with that?
00:26:49My father
00:26:49may have thrown
00:26:50Patty and Jack together,
00:26:52but he certainly
00:26:52didn't push them
00:26:53into each other's arms.
00:26:54And if you're
00:26:55looking for someone
00:26:56to blame for your marriage
00:26:57crumbling to pieces,
00:26:59maybe you ought to bring
00:27:00that blame a little
00:27:00closer to home.
00:27:09Sorry about that,
00:27:10Mom.
00:27:10I didn't expect
00:27:11Victoria to be so cruel.
00:27:13I'm not surprised.
00:27:14She, uh,
00:27:15she really is
00:27:16her father's daughter.
00:27:17The fact she can even
00:27:18defend Victor,
00:27:19it's unforgivable.
00:27:21Well,
00:27:22Victoria's right
00:27:22about one thing.
00:27:24Nobody pushed
00:27:26Jack into Patty's arms.
00:27:27Vance's strength
00:27:28was spiked.
00:27:29He was drugged
00:27:30beyond being capable
00:27:31of making a rational decision.
00:27:33Was he?
00:27:34You don't honestly
00:27:35think he would
00:27:36willingly be with
00:27:37that woman
00:27:38after everything
00:27:39she's done to him?
00:27:41To you,
00:27:42to our family?
00:27:43Kyle,
00:27:44that's what makes
00:27:44it even more painful.
00:27:46More humiliating.
00:27:48Don't you see?
00:27:49No,
00:27:50no matter how hard
00:27:51I'm trying
00:27:52to convince myself
00:27:54that Jack
00:27:54was drugged
00:27:55out of his mind.
00:27:57He was absolutely
00:27:59in his right mind
00:28:00when we found him
00:28:01in bed with her.
00:28:03And that has
00:28:04shattered me.
00:28:06I mean,
00:28:07how am I supposed
00:28:08to make sense of that?
00:28:12I would like
00:28:13nothing better
00:28:14than for this feud
00:28:15to end
00:28:16if only it were
00:28:17as simple
00:28:17as wishing
00:28:18it were so.
00:28:19If I didn't know
00:28:20better,
00:28:21I think you were
00:28:21suggesting I was
00:28:22naive.
00:28:23Nikki,
00:28:23you were right
00:28:24about Victor's
00:28:24actions having
00:28:25a ripple effect.
00:28:26It doesn't just
00:28:26hurt me.
00:28:27It hurts people
00:28:28we care about.
00:28:28That's why
00:28:29I have to respond.
00:28:30He only respects
00:28:32strength.
00:28:33Jack.
00:28:34No, no,
00:28:35listen to me.
00:28:35This is the only way
00:28:36to let him know
00:28:37he's gone too far
00:28:38this time.
00:28:38I'm the only way
00:28:39to stop him
00:28:39from doing this
00:28:40all over again.
00:28:41Look,
00:28:42I'm going to go
00:28:42through with this
00:28:42whether you're
00:28:43involved with me
00:28:44or not.
00:28:46What's your plan
00:28:46of action?
00:28:48I haven't
00:28:49formulated the
00:28:49perfect plan yet
00:28:50but when I do
00:28:53he will never
00:28:54know what
00:28:54hit him.
00:28:57That's a lot
00:28:57to think about.
00:28:58I know,
00:28:59I know
00:29:00but I do hope
00:29:01that you'll be
00:29:02out of the fight
00:29:02ahead.
00:29:04Nothing would
00:29:04make me happier
00:29:06than to have
00:29:07my daughter
00:29:08and granddaughter
00:29:08right next to me.
00:29:11Well, hello.
00:29:13I didn't expect
00:29:14you to be here.
00:29:15Is everything
00:29:15okay?
00:29:18We're good?
00:29:19Yeah, good.
00:29:20All right.
00:29:21Uh, well,
00:29:22look, Dad,
00:29:23I'm not trying
00:29:24to take sides
00:29:25at all but I
00:29:26ran into Mom
00:29:27and she asked
00:29:27me to stop by
00:29:28and pick up
00:29:29a few of her
00:29:29things.
00:29:30She's lucky
00:29:31that I didn't
00:29:32throw her stuff
00:29:33out on the lawn.
00:29:34Dad.
00:29:35What do you
00:29:35mean, Dad?
00:29:37Your mother
00:29:38decided to take
00:29:39Jack Abbott's side
00:29:40not to your
00:29:41father's side.
00:29:42I know that
00:29:43and I know
00:29:43you're hurt
00:29:44but maybe you
00:29:45could meet
00:29:45somewhere in the
00:29:46middle.
00:29:46No.
00:29:48She'll come to
00:29:49me.
00:29:49Dad, she loves
00:29:50you.
00:29:51Reach out to
00:29:52her.
00:29:52I don't want
00:29:53to discuss it
00:29:53anymore.
00:29:54Dad.
00:29:55I'm sorry,
00:29:55no.
00:30:02I can't decide
00:30:03between this
00:30:04cookie, the
00:30:06muffin and the
00:30:06black and white.
00:30:07Uh, she'll
00:30:08take them all.
00:30:09Okay, you're
00:30:10spoiling me.
00:30:11And an oat milk
00:30:12latte, right?
00:30:13Yeah, that's
00:30:13right, but, um,
00:30:14no foam.
00:30:15No foam.
00:30:20So, um, it's a
00:30:22trip seeing you and
00:30:23Audra together.
00:30:25Yeah.
00:30:27We, uh, we go
00:30:29way back.
00:30:31Would you let it
00:30:31go?
00:30:32Oh, I have too
00:30:33much on my plate
00:30:34right now to worry
00:30:35about chasing after
00:30:36the man.
00:30:37There's a man.
00:30:37As I recall, you're
00:30:39pretty good at
00:30:39multitasking.
00:30:40Again, why do you
00:30:42even care?
00:30:45Well, I'm gonna,
00:30:47gonna leave you
00:30:48wondering.
00:30:48Later.
00:30:49Yeah, I hope not.
00:31:00I have another job
00:31:00for you.
00:31:02This time it's in
00:31:03town.
00:31:04But I have to be
00:31:04honest with you, it's
00:31:05gonna be ugly.
00:31:06You're gonna get your
00:31:07hands dirty.
00:31:09Is that gonna be a
00:31:10problem?
00:31:14One oat milk latte, no
00:31:17foam.
00:31:18Thanks.
00:31:21What, what is with
00:31:22Esther and the no
00:31:23foam?
00:31:24It's just Esther being
00:31:26Esther.
00:31:33You know, one day
00:31:34you're gonna have to
00:31:34tell me about your
00:31:35history with Audra.
00:31:36And I'll tell you
00:31:37mine.
00:31:47I have no problem
00:31:48getting my hands
00:31:49dirty.
00:31:49It just depends on
00:31:50who I'm getting
00:31:50ugly with and how
00:31:53much it pays.
00:31:55The pay will be
00:31:55more than acceptable.
00:31:58And the ugly part?
00:32:00You're gonna make a
00:32:01move on Victor Newman.
00:32:05You okay with that?
00:32:10He's so angry at
00:32:11Grandma.
00:32:12Mom is equally as
00:32:13angry.
00:32:14I just have to hope
00:32:15that they'll figure it
00:32:15out.
00:32:16And if they don't?
00:32:17Ugh, I don't even
00:32:18want to think about it.
00:32:21So what were you and
00:32:22Dad discussing before I
00:32:23got here?
00:32:24You looked, you looked
00:32:25kind of uncomfortable.
00:32:27He told me that the two
00:32:29of you were gonna go up
00:32:30against Phyllis to get
00:32:31Newman Enterprises back
00:32:32and he asked me to
00:32:34work with you.
00:32:36He loves to show me
00:32:37the ropes.
00:32:39How do you feel about
00:32:40that?
00:32:42As much as I love
00:32:43Grandpa, I don't always
00:32:44love the way he does
00:32:44things and I'm not
00:32:47sure if I can see
00:32:48myself working with
00:32:48him if people are
00:32:49gonna keep getting
00:32:50hurt, which is what
00:32:52always seems to
00:32:52happen.
00:32:59Mom, I know
00:33:00you're hurt and my
00:33:03heart breaks for you.
00:33:05But Dad would never
00:33:06intentionally hurt you.
00:33:08His love for you is
00:33:09everything.
00:33:10You would never risk
00:33:11what you have.
00:33:12Kyle, he did risk
00:33:13him.
00:33:15Victoria's right.
00:33:16Those drugs didn't
00:33:18force him to have sex
00:33:19with that horrible
00:33:20woman.
00:33:21So whatever moves
00:33:22she made, he didn't
00:33:24resist them.
00:33:25And that calls into
00:33:27question everything I
00:33:29thought I knew about
00:33:30him.
00:33:31about us.
00:33:32Mom.
00:33:33Kyle, I'm sorry.
00:33:37I know you love and
00:33:38respect your father.
00:33:41And you see him as
00:33:42your hero.
00:33:43But I think, I think
00:33:45you need to open your
00:33:46eyes to the very real
00:33:47possibility that he does
00:33:48have some culpability in
00:33:49this.
00:33:51Dad is the most
00:33:52honorable thing I know.
00:33:58It's the Shelton deal.
00:33:59Um, this is on a clock.
00:34:01I have to take this.
00:34:02Go ahead.
00:34:05You're right now.
00:34:06The Thor.
00:34:08Bye.
00:34:25Hello.
00:34:30You're right.
00:34:31I'm sorry.
00:34:32You're right.
00:34:33I'm sorry.
00:34:48Hey, Esther.
00:34:51Oh, no.
00:34:52I love it when you stop by, but is it safe for you to be out?
00:34:58I think so.
00:34:59Well, I understand from Sharon that Matt Clark is out there somewhere.
00:35:04Did she tell you that?
00:35:05Not directly.
00:35:07I have big ears.
00:35:09Are you okay?
00:35:10You must be terrified.
00:35:12I'm fine.
00:35:13I'm fine.
00:35:13Now, I'm pretty sure Matt Clark is going to be caught very soon, and we can put all this
00:35:16behind us, okay?
00:35:17That's what Sharon said last time.
00:35:20Well, a lady hears things.
00:35:22And you are quite the lady.
00:35:24Okay.
00:35:25Sweet talk like that will get you a muffin on the house.
00:35:29Come on.
00:35:29You know it.
00:35:31You find a table, and I will bring your brew.
00:35:41Andra?
00:35:42Hi.
00:35:43It looks like you're busy overseeing the stories that make the world go round.
00:35:47Oh, yeah.
00:35:48The news cycle never ends, especially these days.
00:35:53I'll let you get back to it.
00:35:56Noah, wait.
00:35:57You know, the last time you saw each other, what I said, I hope I didn't make you feel uncomfortable.
00:36:05What, that I'm the one that got away?
00:36:07I'm thinking you probably need to get out there more.
00:36:10I'm serious.
00:36:12I don't want things to be weird between us.
00:36:15We've been through so much together.
00:36:17Good and not so good.
00:36:21Wouldn't it be nice if we could be in the same room together without it being awkward?
00:36:26Yeah, I would.
00:36:28So, does that mean I can convince you to join me?
00:37:30It was good to see her.
00:37:33I hope you being on another continent means you had nothing to do with your father's latest attacks against my
00:37:37family.
00:37:45I see you're on your own, too.
00:37:49Seems that way.
00:37:51You want to share some fries with me?
00:37:53I don't think I'm hungry for much of anything, but if you'll excuse me, I could definitely use a drink.
00:37:59You don't look much better than you did this morning.
00:38:02Still no word from Diane?
00:38:04I have sent more texts and voicemails than I can count, and the silence is deafening.
00:38:09Oh, I'm sorry.
00:38:12And I am at my wit's end.
00:38:14What are you going to do?
00:38:17All I can do, I'm going to follow my brother's advice.
00:38:21You're going to follow Billy's advice about something?
00:38:23He wisely suggested that I give my wife time and space to sort things out.
00:38:29Not that I like sitting and waiting, but it appears patience is my strongest option.
00:38:34How about you?
00:38:35Your being here suggests that things aren't any better between you and Victor either.
00:38:53Hi, goodness.
00:38:55What a nice surprise.
00:38:56Hi, Grandpa.
00:38:57Thanks.
00:38:58So?
00:38:59So, I have some questions for you.
00:39:02Whatever you want to know.
00:39:04Okay, well, you told me that Grandma moved out, but you didn't want to talk about why.
00:39:08Hmm.
00:39:10Hmm.
00:39:11Is that why you're here?
00:39:12I saw her, and she told me her side.
00:39:15Well?
00:39:16What did you tell you?
00:39:18It breaks my heart that the two of you are apart.
00:39:21And I also saw Kyle, and he told me that his parents have split up as well.
00:39:27But I think that you already knew that, because you wanted it to happen.
00:39:32So you made it happen.
00:39:35You masterminded the whole thing, didn't you?
00:39:41I have no problem sharing a coffee with you.
00:39:43You just look like you're pretty deep in it, and I don't want to interrupt you.
00:39:45I'm supposed to be meeting Sienna here anyway.
00:39:48Yeah, it's strange she and I haven't crossed paths yet.
00:39:52Yeah, Sienna's been staying pretty close to the ranch until all of a sudden that clock is over.
00:40:02Oh, that's understandable.
00:40:26Twinsies.
00:40:28Well, now that we're twinsies, you have to join me.
00:40:32You sure it's not just about the pecan muffin?
00:40:34You'd share it, right?
00:40:35Yeah, maybe a bite or two.
00:40:36Yeah.
00:40:37And sit.
00:40:44You know, not so long ago you mentioned that you weren't sure if you were going to stay in Genoa
00:40:49City or not.
00:40:51Have you made a decision?
00:40:53Well, my family's still going through a lot.
00:40:56My legacy wiped out.
00:40:58Matt Clark's still on the loose.
00:41:01Should you even be out?
00:41:03Isn't it dangerous?
00:41:04I'm not going to let some psycho dictate how I live my life.
00:41:08You always were a badass.
00:41:10Yeah, I'm afraid it's in the genes.
00:41:13You're watching out for your family, staying around to help them.
00:41:18You are a very dutiful son.
00:41:21Turns out I missed them a lot more than I thought.
00:41:24It feels good to be home.
00:41:27What about London, your club?
00:41:31That pretty much runs itself.
00:41:32You know, I do plan on flying over periodically to check in.
00:41:37You loved that life.
00:41:39The club life, the energy, the vibe.
00:41:42Won't you miss it?
00:41:43I won't have to.
00:41:44I'm in the process of opening a new club right here in town with Sienna.
00:41:49That's great.
00:41:51Yeah, we're really excited about it.
00:41:53We're basically going to recreate the shadow room right here in Genoa City.
00:41:58I was out of the country when that all went down.
00:42:01Although, I did hear that my father had Jack held.
00:42:04I mean, don't you?
00:42:06Yes, it was a bit extreme, I agree.
00:42:09But your father is safe, and Chancellor is back with the Newmans where it belongs.
00:42:14And that makes what Victor did okay?
00:42:16Even though my mother has moved out of the house, taken a room upstairs, and is no longer speaking to
00:42:21my father?
00:42:22I'm sorry to hear that.
00:42:24Huh?
00:42:25But all's fair.
00:42:27You're referring to what happened on the yacht.
00:42:29Something.
00:42:30Something about another woman?
00:42:32No, not just any woman.
00:42:34Patty Williams.
00:42:35Shh.
00:42:36What?
00:42:38How is that possible?
00:42:39She claims she has been rehabilitated and been released.
00:42:43You can't seriously think that my father had anything to do with that.
00:42:46Of course I do.
00:42:48Patty Williams was thrown into the mix to mess up my parents' marriage, just like when Victor used Audra to
00:42:52come between Claire and me.
00:42:53It's not my father's fault.
00:42:55He can hardly be blamed for pushing them into bed.
00:42:58Jack had a choice, and he chose poorly.
00:43:02God, I wish I could turn back the clock.
00:43:05Erase my relapse.
00:43:07Erase your attempts to save me.
00:43:09Erase everything that made Victor want to come after you.
00:43:12Victor has never needed much of an excuse to go for blood.
00:43:14You and I are both well aware of that.
00:43:17Well, it wasn't just that night that changed everything.
00:43:21I often wonder how different things would be if none of us had accepted that invitation from Aristotle Dumas to
00:43:29his chateau in Nice.
00:43:30I mean, there would be no Cain.
00:43:33No AI.
00:43:34Mickey, I have gone down that road.
00:43:36Nothing good comes of it because we can't go back.
00:43:39We have to face where we are.
00:43:42In the present.
00:43:43In the moment.
00:43:44Face it head on, like it or not.
00:43:47Well, in this moment, I'm not holding out much hope of anything changing between Victor and me.
00:43:55That's why I've asked Victoria to go collect some more of my things.
00:44:00Do you know how much it freaks me out to think that the grandfather that I love so much and
00:44:04respect so much
00:44:05would be capable of something like this?
00:44:07Something that my aunt would have done?
00:44:10Your aunt?
00:44:12Your grandfather isn't anything like your Aunt Jordan.
00:44:15You serious?
00:44:15Kidnapping Jack was extreme.
00:44:21Sweetheart.
00:44:24My company was taken from me.
00:44:26They took it from me.
00:44:28I'd be damned if I don't do everything in my power to get it back.
00:44:31I don't give a damn what it costs.
00:44:43I understand what your legacy means to you.
00:44:47And I also know that you take your work very personally.
00:44:54But the end doesn't always justify the means.
00:44:56Sweetheart, whatever happened to that boat is between Jack and the woman.
00:45:01What about your marriage, Grandpa?
00:45:02You know that I want Chancellor back?
00:45:05What did your grandmother decide to do?
00:45:07She supports Jack Abbott.
00:45:09Not me.
00:45:13Look, I know how devastated Grandma was when we lost Chancellor.
00:45:15I think it should be some consolation that you got it back.
00:45:18But what would have happened if Phyllis hadn't given Chancellor back?
00:45:22What would you have done with Jack?
00:45:23Would you have made good on your threat to him?
00:45:25Sweetheart, we got Chancellor back.
00:45:27That's all that matters.
00:45:28You say it's business, but given how angry you still are at Jack for the way that he acted
00:45:33when Grandma was struggling with her sobriety and the way that you hate the rest of his family,
00:45:39I have a hard time believing it's not personal.
00:45:46Wow.
00:45:47It's been like that.
00:45:49You should be the one running Numa Media.
00:45:51Oh, that's right.
00:45:52It's no longer a company.
00:45:54That's right, because it was stolen along with the rest of my family's entities.
00:45:58Your Uncle Billy played a part in that theft, by the way.
00:46:01Except Phyllis was in control of those companies when Victor decided to abduct my father
00:46:05and stick him on a yacht with paddy wheels.
00:46:07Okay, so as long as you're throwing blame around,
00:46:09why not blame Phyllis for your father's indiscretion?
00:46:12Maybe she should have acted sooner.
00:46:14Okay, how about the drugs?
00:46:16Excuse me?
00:46:17You didn't know?
00:46:18Their whiskey was spiked by a man who knows my father has addiction issues,
00:46:23knows how hard he works to stay clean.
00:46:26Is there no depth to which Victor won't sink?
00:46:28Maybe paddy spiked your father's drink.
00:46:31Or do you have actual proof that the drinks were spiked,
00:46:35other than what Jack claims?
00:46:36You newmans.
00:46:38There will always be an excuse for the old man, won't there?
00:46:41No matter how heinous his behavior,
00:46:43it's just dear old dad protecting the family,
00:46:45and you're all just fine with it.
00:46:47I'm not going to let you blame my father for everything that happened on that yacht,
00:46:50especially when it sounds like the real issue for your parents' separation
00:46:54is the choice that your father made.
00:47:00Sounds like you expect this separation to last a while.
00:47:04I don't know, but for now, the athletic club is home.
00:47:13God, I miss the ranch so much.
00:47:17My own bed,
00:47:19writing concerto in the morning just as the sun is peeking over the ridge.
00:47:23There's just so many things.
00:47:27And I miss Victor.
00:47:30I mean, as furious as I am with him,
00:47:33I still love him.
00:47:37I hope that we can find our way through this.
00:47:39But if there is going to be a hope of a reconciliation,
00:47:44he's going to have to reach out first.
00:47:46Well, I hate to be the one to say this,
00:47:48but if those are the terms,
00:47:50this estrangement will indeed last a long time.
00:47:54Thanks for the pep time.
00:47:56I'm just saying, no matter how high the stakes,
00:47:58Victor is completely incapable of admitting fault.
00:48:02Of course it was personal.
00:48:04I mean, my company was stolen.
00:48:07My family was a time.
00:48:09I had to do something.
00:48:10What would have happened if Phyllis and Billy had called your bluff?
00:48:15Would you have gone as far as to hurt Jack?
00:48:19You know, sometimes in life and in business,
00:48:23things get tough, you know, and you cross the line.
00:48:26Not everyone would have gone as far as you did.
00:48:29Sweetheart,
00:48:34Are you forgetting how I grew up?
00:48:37I grew up in a world of hard knocks.
00:48:40You know, I grew up in an orphanage where you look over here,
00:48:43short all the time.
00:48:46See if someone is coming for you.
00:48:49See, learn to find dirty.
00:48:56I've never forgotten.
00:49:01Mmm.
00:49:03It was so good.
00:49:04You know, I never found a latte in London as tasty
00:49:07as the ones that I grew up drinking at here in Crimson Lights.
00:49:10Yeah, no offense,
00:49:11but what about that cute little place we used to go to all the time?
00:49:14They had the best coffee in the world.
00:49:16Oh, yeah, you were all about the pistachio lattes.
00:49:18Yeah, always, always.
00:49:20As soon as you walk in the door,
00:49:21they start making it right on the spot.
00:49:23You remember.
00:49:23Yeah, yeah.
00:49:24I hate to say, though,
00:49:26that that place closed down last year.
00:49:28Oh, no.
00:49:29I was actually just thinking about it.
00:49:32Well,
00:49:33I've been thinking a lot about London lately,
00:49:36but that's probably because we keep running into each other.
00:49:39Yeah, yeah.
00:49:40Our run-ins have brought us some memories for me, too.
00:49:42Yeah.
00:49:44Of the good times.
00:49:46Before it got bad.
00:49:47Yeah, between us.
00:49:53Do you ever think about it?
00:49:57About us?
00:50:00Yeah.
00:50:01Yeah, I do sometimes.
00:50:05Just...
00:50:07It's hard not to go to the dark part.
00:50:12I know.
00:50:14But we had some serious fun, didn't we?
00:50:19You remember those times, too, don't you?
00:50:27Of course, I remember the good times.
00:50:30We had a lot of fun.
00:50:33We did.
00:50:36You know, sometimes I can't help but wonder
00:50:43what might have happened if I hadn't lost a baby.
00:50:49I'm so sorry you had to go through that alone.
00:50:53Yeah.
00:50:56I'll always regret that.
00:51:01You're a good man, Noah.
00:51:10Hey.
00:51:11Hey, there you are.
00:51:12No wonder where you was.
00:51:13Yeah, well, I'm here now.
00:51:15So, I miss anything?
00:51:17Uh, no, just catching up.
00:51:19Yeah, I was just telling Noah
00:51:20that I can't believe you and I
00:51:21haven't run into each other
00:51:23since you relocated to Genoa City.
00:51:24Well, I guess it's not as small a world
00:51:26as they say it is.
00:51:27It's crazy, right?
00:51:29That we both met in L.A.,
00:51:30and now we both are ending up
00:51:32calling Genoa City home.
00:51:34Although, you must miss
00:51:36that crazy Hollywood lifestyle.
00:51:39Yeah, you know,
00:51:40I don't really miss it as much
00:51:41as I thought I would.
00:51:43But that is mostly
00:51:44because of this guy.
00:51:53So, what happens now?
00:51:55Now that you have Chancellor,
00:51:56is that going to be enough?
00:51:58Can you use it as the foundation
00:52:00for your next empire?
00:52:01Well, I'll use Chancellor
00:52:06to go after Phyllis.
00:52:09As a weapon?
00:52:11Yeah.
00:52:13By giving me back Chancellor.
00:52:16She gave me the means
00:52:18to take her down.
00:52:21I know it seems crazy
00:52:22hoping that Victor
00:52:23will admit he's wrong
00:52:24and beg for forgiveness.
00:52:25If he had given an ounce of humility,
00:52:26he would do exactly that.
00:52:31Of course, you're right.
00:52:32I mean, he never admits
00:52:33to any wrongdoing.
00:52:34If anything, he doubles down.
00:52:36How is he going to justify
00:52:37drugging me,
00:52:39kidnapping me,
00:52:41trapping me in a boat
00:52:42in the middle of Lake Michigan?
00:52:43Oh, easy for him,
00:52:46saving the family legacy.
00:52:47No harm, no foul.
00:52:48Only the damage
00:52:50could be irreparable.
00:52:52Are you talking now
00:52:53about the woman
00:52:54who was on the yacht with you?
00:52:55You know what?
00:52:55I'm not ready to talk
00:52:56about that just yet.
00:52:58Well,
00:52:59when I ran into Diane
00:53:01at the athletic club,
00:53:02she was in the middle
00:53:04of a confrontation
00:53:05with Hattie Williams.
00:53:08And I was in shock.
00:53:10I couldn't believe
00:53:11that she was out.
00:53:12She's telling people
00:53:13she has been rehabilitated.
00:53:15And I didn't realize
00:53:17what it could mean
00:53:18until later
00:53:19because I knew
00:53:20that you certainly would...
00:53:24Was she the woman
00:53:25on the yacht?
00:53:28Yeah.
00:53:31And something happened.
00:53:33Something you regret.
00:53:35I love Diane
00:53:37with everything in me.
00:53:38You know that.
00:53:39I do know that, Jack.
00:53:42But if Victor
00:53:43set up this scenario
00:53:44to have Hattie seduce you,
00:53:46no wonder you're so hell-bent
00:53:48on getting vengeance
00:53:49on my husband.
00:53:52If you concede
00:53:53that it was Victor
00:53:54who put my father
00:53:55on that yacht
00:53:56against his will,
00:53:57how can you ignore
00:53:57the fact that
00:53:58Hattie Williams
00:53:58was there too?
00:54:00Do you think
00:54:00Daddy Dearest
00:54:01didn't arrange that?
00:54:02Didn't set the trap?
00:54:04Yes.
00:54:05My father's
00:54:06machinations
00:54:07can be extreme.
00:54:09Way to not answer
00:54:10a question.
00:54:11The fact is
00:54:11Victor had
00:54:12one intention
00:54:13and he got
00:54:14exactly the outcome
00:54:15he wanted.
00:54:16Whatever my father's
00:54:18intentions may
00:54:18or may not
00:54:19have been,
00:54:20again,
00:54:21Jack could have said no.
00:54:22He was drugged,
00:54:23Victoria.
00:54:24Why not suspect
00:54:25Patty, hmm?
00:54:26Why not?
00:54:27We all know
00:54:27what she's capable of.
00:54:28You don't actually
00:54:29believe that.
00:54:30My father was
00:54:31accosted by thugs
00:54:32who drugged him
00:54:33and threw him
00:54:33in a van.
00:54:34Who do you think
00:54:34arranged that?
00:54:36How about the man
00:54:36who told Billy
00:54:37that he would never
00:54:38see my father again
00:54:39if he didn't
00:54:40hand over Chancellor
00:54:41and then send him
00:54:41a photo of my father
00:54:43to prove he had him?
00:54:45Then once on that yacht,
00:54:47he was given
00:54:47a different drug.
00:54:50I would have expected
00:54:51that given your mother
00:54:52is a recovering alcoholic,
00:54:53you'd be a little
00:54:54more sympathetic
00:54:55to someone giving
00:54:56my father
00:54:57a recovering addict,
00:54:58a controlled substance.
00:55:01Two substances,
00:55:02technically.
00:55:03The only evidence
00:55:04that you have
00:55:04of this drugging
00:55:05is what your father
00:55:07has told you.
00:55:08I'm going to ask you
00:55:09the same question
00:55:11I asked Claire earlier.
00:55:13Will the Newmans
00:55:14ever condemn Victor
00:55:15for the way
00:55:15he crosses lines?
00:55:17Hurts people?
00:55:19Or are you all
00:55:20so brainwashed
00:55:21you'll just fall in line
00:55:22no matter what he does
00:55:23or what he's after?
00:55:25Victoria,
00:55:26you promised me
00:55:27on New Year's Eve
00:55:28you would do your best
00:55:29to keep the peace
00:55:30between our families.
00:55:34So much for
00:55:35New Year's resolutions.
00:55:36It does what I want
00:55:36for both of our families.
00:55:38How can you say that
00:55:40when at best
00:55:42you're turning a blind eye
00:55:43and at the worst
00:55:44you are wholly complicit
00:55:45in your father's commitment
00:55:47to destroy my family?
00:55:48Unless I'm wrong
00:55:49about something here.
00:55:50Don't waste your breath.
00:55:52No,
00:55:52you're not wrong.
00:56:02You know,
00:56:03Altra is running
00:56:04a media company now.
00:56:05Hmm.
00:56:06Co-running.
00:56:07No, no, no.
00:56:08No false modesty.
00:56:08It's a big deal.
00:56:10Hmm.
00:56:11A suit
00:56:11in the corporate world.
00:56:13That is the last thing
00:56:14I would have imagined
00:56:15you doing
00:56:15when I knew you
00:56:16back in the day.
00:56:17Well,
00:56:17a lot has changed
00:56:18since then.
00:56:20I'm a different person now.
00:56:22Yeah,
00:56:22I can see that.
00:56:24So,
00:56:25you still have
00:56:26any room left
00:56:27because I was eyeing
00:56:28the goodies in the case?
00:56:29Yeah,
00:56:29let's do it.
00:56:30Hmm.
00:56:31It was nice
00:56:31for an end to you.
00:56:33Oh,
00:56:33what,
00:56:34what about your muffin?
00:56:35It's nice to pick,
00:56:36yeah,
00:56:36no,
00:56:36it's all yours.
00:56:38Thanks.
00:56:52What do you want?
00:56:54Every time I see
00:56:55with Noah,
00:56:56it becomes more clear
00:56:57to me why you
00:56:58failed on our agreement
00:56:59to come between
00:56:59Kyle and Claire.
00:57:00If you find somewhere else
00:57:02to sit,
00:57:02I'm busy.
00:57:03Soakling is an actual activity.
00:57:06Would you just please
00:57:07leave me alone?
00:57:08It's pretty weird
00:57:09seeing Sienna in town,
00:57:10isn't it?
00:57:12Look over your shoulder,
00:57:13watch.
00:57:14I,
00:57:15I don't care
00:57:15one way or the other.
00:57:17And you expect me
00:57:18to believe that?
00:57:21Sienna only thinks
00:57:22she knows what went down
00:57:23with you and me
00:57:23in L.A.
00:57:25Hardly a threat.
00:57:27That's,
00:57:27uh,
00:57:27180 from the days
00:57:29you freaked out
00:57:29about Claire
00:57:30slipping around
00:57:30and finding the truth.
00:57:31Like,
00:57:31I have more important
00:57:32things to do,
00:57:33so,
00:57:34if you could just
00:57:35please leave.
00:57:35I will,
00:57:36I will,
00:57:36but not to answer
00:57:37one question.
00:57:38Anything to get you
00:57:39out of my hair.
00:57:41Do you always set
00:57:42your sights on men
00:57:42who are involved
00:57:43with other women?
00:57:46Are you serious?
00:57:49Some advice.
00:57:50If the answer is no,
00:57:51you might want to
00:57:52at least avoid
00:57:53the guy who's dating
00:57:54the woman who has
00:57:54inside information
00:57:55about our deepest,
00:57:58darkest secret.
00:58:03I'm not sure
00:58:04I follow.
00:58:04How are you
00:58:05going to use
00:58:06Chancellor as a weapon?
00:58:08Well,
00:58:09it won't be
00:58:10without risk,
00:58:12but it'll be worth it.
00:58:14You know,
00:58:15your mother
00:58:15is going to join me
00:58:16in this fight,
00:58:17right?
00:58:18And I know
00:58:19how very bright
00:58:20you are.
00:58:22So what do you think
00:58:22if you joined
00:58:23your mother and me?
00:58:25I want you to learn
00:58:26by my side
00:58:27how to run
00:58:28a big home
00:58:29moment like this.
00:58:32What do you think?
00:58:35What Victor has done
00:58:36is extreme
00:58:37even for him.
00:58:38He has brought
00:58:39unconscionable
00:58:40to a whole new level.
00:58:41I have to respond
00:58:42to this,
00:58:43and I appreciate
00:58:43you understanding
00:58:45my position.
00:58:45I also appreciate
00:58:46even more
00:58:47that you might be
00:58:48willing to help
00:58:49me teach him
00:58:50a lesson
00:58:51that is long overdue.
00:58:53Okay.
00:58:54Jack.
00:58:54Have you changed
00:58:55your mind?
00:58:56No.
00:58:57No,
00:58:58not at all.
00:58:58But now that
00:58:59Patty is involved,
00:59:01it changes everything.
00:59:02I mean,
00:59:03if she really is out there,
00:59:04if she is lurking around,
00:59:06then Victor's
00:59:07not the only teacher
00:59:08you have to do.
00:59:08I am well aware
00:59:09of the multiple threats
00:59:10I am facing.
00:59:11I can handle her.
00:59:13Can't we?
00:59:14Did you?
00:59:16Nikki.
00:59:17Look,
00:59:17I want Victor
00:59:18to learn his lesson.
00:59:20But more than that,
00:59:21I want this damn
00:59:22feud to end.
00:59:23But if you want revenge,
00:59:25that's not going
00:59:26to end it.
00:59:27It's only going
00:59:28to incite Victor more.
00:59:30And this escalation
00:59:31has got to stop.
00:59:32And you and I both know
00:59:33he's not going to be
00:59:34the one to do it.
00:59:35It sounds like you
00:59:35want me to do nothing
00:59:36to let him
00:59:37get away with
00:59:38assaulting me,
00:59:39my family,
00:59:40my marriage.
00:59:41That is not an option.
00:59:42I know how you feel.
00:59:45But that madwoman
00:59:47is back in our lives again
00:59:48no matter how it happened.
00:59:50What if you know
00:59:50matter?
00:59:51You know damn well
00:59:52how it happened.
00:59:53I understand
00:59:55that you want
00:59:56to strike back.
00:59:57And I wish that Victor
00:59:59could suddenly see
01:00:00all of the damage
01:00:01that he has caused,
01:00:02but I don't know.
01:00:04I mean,
01:00:05maybe enough is enough.
01:00:06Jack,
01:00:07maybe it's time
01:00:08for you to lay down
01:00:09your sword
01:00:10and end this feud
01:00:11before more damage
01:00:13is done.
01:00:17The Newmans
01:00:17will always defend
01:00:19their leader
01:00:19no matter how
01:00:20disgusting his actions are.
01:00:22As I told Kyle,
01:00:23I had nothing to do
01:00:24with my father's plan.
01:00:25You were still complicit.
01:00:26The family benefited.
01:00:28You got your company back,
01:00:29but that's just business
01:00:30as your father likes to say.
01:00:31Am I right?
01:00:32I'm sorry, Diane.
01:00:32I'm so sorry
01:00:33that you've been hurt,
01:00:34that you've hurt you.
01:00:35Victoria,
01:00:36when will it be enough?
01:00:37How far is Victor
01:00:39going to take things?
01:00:40When will anyone
01:00:40in your family
01:00:41condemn that man
01:00:42for anything?
01:00:44You know,
01:00:44I know that I have
01:00:45issues with your mother,
01:00:46but at least she had
01:00:47the courage to stand
01:00:48up to him
01:00:48and act on it.
01:00:50You stood up to Victor
01:00:50for Claire when she
01:00:51and I were a couple.
01:00:52Why can't you do that now?
01:00:53Oh, because she's
01:00:54her father's daughter.
01:00:55That's why.
01:00:55My father only wants
01:00:56to get back
01:00:57where belongs to us.
01:00:58I know you tell
01:00:59yourself that,
01:01:00but Cain and Phyllis
01:01:02stole those companies,
01:01:03not Jack.
01:01:04Victor is just
01:01:05using it
01:01:06or trying to use it
01:01:07as yet another way
01:01:08to destroy Jack
01:01:09and our family.
01:01:10If the Abbots
01:01:11lost to Beau
01:01:12and they were fighting
01:01:13to get it back,
01:01:14there is no line
01:01:15that they wouldn't cross.
01:01:16But when my father
01:01:17does it,
01:01:17he's a monster.
01:01:19What Victor did
01:01:20was vicious
01:01:21and cruel
01:01:22and very,
01:01:23very personal.
01:01:24And he's taking
01:01:25pleasure in it,
01:01:26which is sick.
01:01:27I mean,
01:01:28how can you be
01:01:28okay with that?
01:01:29My father
01:01:30may have thrown
01:01:31Patty and Jack together,
01:01:32but he certainly
01:01:33didn't push them
01:01:33into each other's arms.
01:01:35And if you're looking
01:01:36for someone to blame
01:01:37for your marriage
01:01:38crumbling to pieces,
01:01:39maybe you ought to bring
01:01:40that blame
01:01:41a little closer to home.
01:01:49Sorry about that, Mom.
01:01:51I didn't expect
01:01:51Victoria to be so cruel.
01:01:53I'm not surprised.
01:01:54She, uh,
01:01:56she really is
01:01:57her father's daughter.
01:01:58The fact she could
01:01:58even defend Victor,
01:01:59it's unforgivable.
01:02:02Well,
01:02:02Victoria's right
01:02:03about one thing.
01:02:05Nobody pushed
01:02:06Jack into Patty's arms.
01:02:08That strength
01:02:08was spiked.
01:02:09He was drugged
01:02:11beyond being capable
01:02:11of making
01:02:12a rational decision.
01:02:14Was he?
01:02:15You don't honestly
01:02:16think he would
01:02:17willingly be with
01:02:18that woman
01:02:18after everything
01:02:20she's done to him?
01:02:21To you,
01:02:22to our family?
01:02:24Kyle,
01:02:24that's what makes
01:02:25it even more painful.
01:02:26More humiliating.
01:02:29Don't you see?
01:02:30No matter how hard
01:02:31I'm trying
01:02:33to convince myself
01:02:34that Jack was
01:02:35drugged out of his mind,
01:02:38he was absolutely
01:02:39in his right mind
01:02:41when we found him
01:02:42in bed with her.
01:02:43And that has
01:02:45shattered me.
01:02:46I mean,
01:02:48how am I supposed
01:02:48to make sense of that?
01:02:53I would like
01:02:54nothing better
01:02:55than for this feud
01:02:56to end.
01:02:56If only it were
01:02:57as simple as wishing
01:02:58it were so.
01:03:00If I didn't know better,
01:03:01I think you were
01:03:02suggesting I was naive.
01:03:03Nikki,
01:03:04you are right
01:03:04about Victor's actions
01:03:05having a ripple effect.
01:03:06It doesn't just hurt me,
01:03:07it hurts people
01:03:08we care about.
01:03:09That's why
01:03:09I have to respond.
01:03:11He only respects
01:03:13strength.
01:03:14Jack.
01:03:15No, no,
01:03:15listen to me.
01:03:15This is the only way
01:03:16to let him know
01:03:17he's gone too far this time.
01:03:19The only way
01:03:19to stop him
01:03:20from doing this
01:03:20all over again.
01:03:22Look,
01:03:22I'm going to go through
01:03:23with this
01:03:23whether you're involved
01:03:24with me or not.
01:03:26What's your plan
01:03:27of action?
01:03:28I haven't formulated
01:03:30the perfect plan yet,
01:03:31but when I do,
01:03:33he will never know
01:03:34what hit him.
01:03:37It's a lot
01:03:38to think about.
01:03:38I know,
01:03:39I know,
01:03:40but I do hope
01:03:41that you'll be
01:03:42out of the fight ahead.
01:03:44Nothing would
01:03:45make me happier
01:03:47than to have
01:03:48my daughter
01:03:48and granddaughter
01:03:49right next to me.
01:03:52Well,
01:03:52hello.
01:03:53I didn't expect
01:03:54you to be here.
01:03:55Is everything okay?
01:03:58We're good?
01:03:59Yeah,
01:03:59good.
01:04:00All right.
01:04:01Uh,
01:04:02well,
01:04:03look,
01:04:03Dad,
01:04:03I'm not
01:04:04trying to take
01:04:05sides at all,
01:04:06but I ran into
01:04:07Mom and she
01:04:07asked me to stop
01:04:08by and pick up
01:04:09a few of her things.
01:04:10She's lucky
01:04:11that I didn't
01:04:12throw her stuff
01:04:13out on the lawn.
01:04:14Dad.
01:04:15What do you mean,
01:04:16Dad?
01:04:18Your mother
01:04:19decided to take
01:04:20Jack Abbott's side,
01:04:21not your father's side.
01:04:23I know that,
01:04:23and I know you're hurt,
01:04:24but maybe you could
01:04:25meet somewhere
01:04:26in the middle.
01:04:27No.
01:04:28She'll come to me.
01:04:30Dad,
01:04:30she loves you.
01:04:32Reach out to her.
01:04:33I don't want to
01:04:34discuss it anymore.
01:04:35Dad.
01:04:35I'm sorry,
01:04:36no.
01:04:43I can't decide
01:04:44between this cookie,
01:04:46the muffin,
01:04:46and the black and white.
01:04:48Uh,
01:04:48she'll take them all.
01:04:50Okay,
01:04:50you're spoiling me.
01:04:51And an oat milk latte,
01:04:53right?
01:04:53Yeah,
01:04:54that's right,
01:04:54but, um,
01:04:54no foam.
01:04:55No foam.
01:05:01So, um,
01:05:03it's a trip,
01:05:03seeing you and Audra
01:05:04together.
01:05:06Yeah.
01:05:07We, uh,
01:05:09we go way back.
01:05:11Would you let it go?
01:05:13I have too much
01:05:14on my plate right now
01:05:15to worry about chasing
01:05:16after some man.
01:05:17As I recall,
01:05:19you're pretty good
01:05:19at multitasking.
01:05:21Again,
01:05:21why do you even care?
01:05:26I'm going to leave you
01:05:28wondering.
01:05:29Later.
01:05:30Yeah,
01:05:30I hope not.
01:05:40I have another job
01:05:41for you.
01:05:42This time,
01:05:43it's in town.
01:05:44But I have to be honest
01:05:45with you,
01:05:45it's going to be ugly.
01:05:47You're going to get
01:05:47your hands dirty.
01:05:49Is that going to be a problem?
01:05:54One oat milk latte,
01:05:57no foam.
01:05:58Thanks.
01:06:01What,
01:06:02what is with Esther
01:06:03and the no foam?
01:06:04It's just
01:06:05Esther being Esther.
01:06:14You know one day
01:06:14you're going to have
01:06:15to tell me about
01:06:15your history with Audra
01:06:17and I'll tell you mine.
01:06:27I have no problem
01:06:28getting my hands dirty.
01:06:29It just depends on
01:06:30who I'm getting ugly with
01:06:32and how much it pays.
01:06:35the pay will be
01:06:36more than acceptable.
01:06:38And the ugly part,
01:06:41you're going to make
01:06:42a move on Victor Newman.
01:06:45You okay with that?
01:06:50He's so angry at Grandma.
01:06:52Mom is equally as angry.
01:06:54I just have to hope
01:06:55that they'll figure it out.
01:06:56And if they don't?
01:06:58I don't even want
01:06:59to think about it.
01:07:01So what were you
01:07:02and Dad discussing
01:07:03before I got here?
01:07:04You looked,
01:07:05you looked kind of
01:07:05uncomfortable.
01:07:08He told me that
01:07:09the two of you
01:07:09were going to go up
01:07:10against Phyllis
01:07:11to get Newman Enterprises
01:07:12back and
01:07:14he asked me to work
01:07:15with you.
01:07:17He wants to show me
01:07:18the ropes.
01:07:19How do you feel
01:07:20about that?
01:07:23As much as I love Grandpa,
01:07:24I don't always love
01:07:24the way he does things
01:07:25and
01:07:27I'm not sure
01:07:28if I can see myself
01:07:28working with him
01:07:29if people are going
01:07:30to keep getting hurt.
01:07:31which is what
01:07:32always seems to happen.
01:07:39Mom,
01:07:40I know you're hurt
01:07:42and my heart breaks
01:07:44for you
01:07:45but Dad would never
01:07:46intentionally hurt you.
01:07:48His love for you
01:07:49was everything.
01:07:50He would never risk
01:07:51what you have.
01:07:52Kyle, he did risk it.
01:07:55Victoria's right.
01:07:57Those drugs
01:07:58didn't force him
01:07:59to have sex
01:08:00with that horrible woman.
01:08:01So whatever moves
01:08:03she made,
01:08:03he didn't resist them.
01:08:06And that
01:08:06calls into question
01:08:08everything I thought
01:08:09I knew about him.
01:08:11About us.
01:08:12Mom,
01:08:14Kyle,
01:08:15I'm sorry.
01:08:17I know you love
01:08:18and respect
01:08:19your father
01:08:21and you see him
01:08:22as your hero
01:08:23but I think
01:08:24I think you need
01:08:25to open your eyes
01:08:26to the very real
01:08:27possibility
01:08:28that he does have
01:08:29some culpability
01:08:29in this.
01:08:31Dad is the most
01:08:32honorable thing
01:08:33I know.
01:08:38It's the Shilton deal.
01:08:40This is on a clock.
01:08:41I have to take this.
01:08:43Go ahead.
01:08:44Go ahead.
01:08:46You're in that part.
01:09:16Hello guys.
01:09:17What's the situation
01:09:18for everyone?
01:09:20Listen.
01:09:22You can see
01:09:23that my store
01:09:24is empty.
01:09:31I don't know.
01:09:34I don't know.
01:09:38I don't know.
01:09:39I don't know.
01:09:41I don't know.
01:09:43I don't know.
01:09:46Gracias.
01:09:49Espartona.
01:09:51Te brinde.
01:10:10Cricket match.
01:10:12What is it?
01:10:14What is it?
01:10:16What is it?
01:10:18Cricket match.
