01:56want
01:56to say to me just hit me I didn't ask you to come back here so I can give you
02:00a hard time I just need
02:01to talk to my sister yeah of course um is it is it just us it is just us Abby's
02:09at work
02:09and they uh took Amy to a movie okay what's um what's going on so Abby and I learned today
02:20that
02:20Mariah's gonna be sent to a psychiatric hospital did the judge order that he did yeah and uh the
02:28indication is that that's the only punishment she's gonna receive for essentially kidnapping our
02:33son I'm sorry so am I because since I found out I've just it's been bugging the hell out of
02:40me and
02:40I can't really shake the feeling no I mean I I get that um don't you think though that it's
02:47for the
02:48best why would you say that well because then Mariah can get the help that she needs I mean it
02:54sounds like when she took Dom she wasn't in her right mind right well what if she was sane enough
03:00to know that she was doing something wrong and she still chose to do it anyway and Christina's
03:06just built up a clever enough defense to make sure her client doesn't pay for any crimes
03:15hey look at you bartending tonight oh watch out I make a mean Shirley Temple ha takes me back
03:22Lucy used to love those oh everyone has to have their special drink I said that one time to Dominic
03:28and
03:28he has not let me forget it I'm surprised to see you here tonight end of the quarter inventory I
03:36have to count everything in this restaurant right well that's a lot of stuff to count so don't let me
03:41keep you actually um I'm glad you're here um you and Tessa are close right I mean you guys seemed
03:52really
03:52tight at your dad's wedding yeah we were yeah I mean we are
04:01what's the long-term plan for Mariah
04:06what's gonna happen after she receives treatment at the hospital
04:16you heard about Mariah's plea deal the judge agreed and sentenced her to psychiatric care
04:22instead of going to prison like beyond her treatment I don't really know much more about you know future
04:28plans I'm sure you know more than I do from Tessa I'm guessing you're not okay with this
04:37Mariah kidnap my son and it seems like there's no consequences for her actions
04:42were you worried more like terrified
04:48how's Dominic doing after everything that happened miraculously he's okay he had a nightmare when he
04:56first got home he was calling out for Devon and me and he couldn't get to us we wouldn't answer
05:02sounds like maybe he was scared just wanted to know where you guys were I know the feeling
05:08but I mean he's back at school he has a lot of people that love and support him so
05:13there's no long-term effects from the kidnapping so he's okay but you're not you know it's not enough
05:20for us to be in the same place if I can't hear him I'm constantly going in and and checking
05:27on him if
05:27I don't hear him laughing or playing checking to see if he's still there and when I'm at work
05:35if he's home with the nanny or Devon I'm constantly checking my phone making sure that nothing's happened
05:42I even dug out his old baby monitor and at night after he goes to sleep I put it out
05:47and
05:48I just want to make sure that I can hear him breathe and then I wake up early in the
05:53morning and
05:54I put it away because I don't want him to know how scared I am and I know this is
05:59no way to live
06:00and it can't go on but what do I do with all of this fear that I'm feeling how do
06:07I make it stop
06:10do you really think that Christine and Mariah manipulated the judge so that she would avoid jail
06:14time that's Christine's job is it not and she took a plea deal she didn't have to do that
06:21well I mean don't you think that Mariah deserves treatment yeah of course I think she deserves
06:25treatment that's not what I'm saying but to not have to answer in any way shape or form for stealing
06:31a child is not something I can get behind well come on she's gonna have to answer for what she's
06:35done
06:35how is she gonna answer for it she's it's gonna be taken care of in some hospital it's not jail
06:41time
06:41it's a slap on the wrist well unfortunately you can't control her sentencing yeah I know I can't and it
06:47is unfortunate Tom look I know that you're upset okay I know at the end of the day Dom is
06:55home he's
06:56safe right that's all that really matters he is right now I we don't know how this is gonna affect
07:01them down the road trauma could pop up at any point in his life you don't know if it will
07:06how's
07:07it gonna be when Mariah comes back to town after staying in this hospital and they're around each other
07:10how's she gonna react or how is Dominic gonna act seeing the person that took him from his family
07:15well is he acting afraid of her no he's not it's just been the one nightmare that I told you
07:21about
07:21where he was calling out for Abby and me and nobody came for him oh my god that is heartbreaking
07:27Devon look you know Dom is home he's okay Mariah is getting treatment she's in a facility no doctor
07:34is gonna release her unless they feel like she's good to come home cases like hers step through the cracks
07:39all the time you know this okay happens okay well you can't live in fear of what might happen
07:45it's kind of hard not to when I've literally lived through having my child taken from me
07:51and it makes me feel like I should have been more scared and more on alert but how could you
07:56have been
07:56more on alert it wasn't a stranger who took him it was Mariah you knew her exactly someone we knew
08:01abducted our son clearly she was in pain and she made the wrong decision you know to be in the
08:07mental
08:07state to make a decision like that means she's not who she used to be she's not that person anymore
08:13and who knows if she ever will be maybe this is who she is I mean do you really think
08:17that I didn't
08:19think that she would do what she did she was telling Dominic she was going to take him to another
08:23country
08:23she was going to motels and stopping at diners and gas stations acting completely fine so I'm sure
08:30if she wanted to she could convince some doctors that she was fine I hear you I do but Devon
08:38for
08:38your sake for Abby for Dom you've got to let go of this anger okay Dom is home he is
08:46safe Mariah cannot
08:47come near him and we will make sure this never happens to your family again it never should have
08:53happened in the first place so if I don't forgive you Victor wins is that seriously your argument
09:01no that was not the point of my appeal Victor is not why we're here I am not letting him
09:07win we are
09:08where we are right now because you took the fate he laid for you so don't put what you've done
09:14on me
09:14I'm sorry that was a stupid thing to say I can't seem to do the right thing right now
09:19Diane I love you I hate that I hurt you let me fix it let me explain to you
09:27what is there to say there's plenty to say I am totally committed to doing whatever it takes
09:33for you to forgive me I have to believe that's possible is it
09:40you know I have all these images swimming around in my head of you and her
09:47what we walked in on me and our son Jack what we saw
09:55and I can't get past it I mean I I know I'm not a saint and and I know but
10:01we both
10:02have done things in the past that we're not proud of but I I never imagined that you would do
10:07this
10:09neither did I it makes me sick to my stomach that I did well even if um even if I
10:17wanted to forgive
10:18you I I can't right now because I am so angry at you that you let yourself do whatever that
10:28was
10:29was nothing it didn't look like nothing okay you say that you were drugged and that you weren't in
10:37your right mind it's true I wasn't everything was distorted everything was off kilter and before that
10:44being there alone with her I didn't know what her game was whether my life was in danger Jack don't
10:50you
10:50think I wasn't scared of that too when I found out that Patty Williams was on that boat I I
10:57didn't
10:57know if I'd find you tied up or even dead and instead I find you naked in bed with her
11:06she is evil yes
11:08she is and that's why I don't understand it I I don't know how you could have succumbed to her
11:15how am I supposed to look at you the same way again how am I supposed to trust you trust
11:23what we
11:24had you're the guy I need can I count on you look I I want to help but I need
11:35some details first
11:37I didn't I didn't expect this kind of offer from you
11:40look I I hardly know Victor and from what I know the man is formidable a lot of people have
11:46tried to go up against him and failed people with higher standing and greater means don't sell
11:50yourself short but to Victor I'd be a nobody but is is that the point here
11:59you're close with Claire Newman Victor's granddaughter and that's why I'm an asset
12:07so your plan has Claire involved you want to use her and our friendship I just want you to spend
12:11some time with her and then what gather intel from her is that going to be a problem for you
12:25listen I am so sorry for everything that you guys have had to deal with
12:30of course you'd be worried about Dominic's safety and his well-being I'm concerned about Mariah too
12:39I don't think that Mariah is a threat I really think that she is focused on getting the help that
12:44she needs right now and I think that the judge made the right decision sending her to the hospital
12:51instead of prison I'm on the fence you know Abby I saw for myself just how much Mariah's been struggling
13:00she was in such a bad place that she felt like she needed to distance herself from her wife and
13:04from her own kid in order to keep them safe and she did all that even though it broke her
13:09heart to do it
13:13before Mariah took Dominic I had no idea how much pain she was in
13:19she must have been going through hell to push her family away
13:24to choose to choose to not be around all the people that she loves
13:27hopefully now she can start to heal right but when she left Tessa and Aria
13:35she put all of her focus on Dominic
13:40and I struggle with that
13:44Abby did you ever think that Mariah would
13:47actually hurt Dominic
13:49when I found out Mariah was the one who took Dominic
13:54I didn't know what to think
13:56but the not knowing
13:58was one of the most terrifying feelings I have ever had
14:04Devon I know you are angry
14:06okay but remember Mariah is out of your life right now she is in a facility she's not anywhere
14:13near Dom he is safe remember that
14:15I'm trying very hard to believe me it's not easy
14:18you know we never actually talked about the abduction and what happened
14:23I know we didn't you would have known what happened if you would have been here
14:27I deserve that
14:30so how did Mariah take him
14:33why do you want to know the details
14:34I just I want to know the story you know I'd like to hear it from you
14:39we were at home it had just snowed and uh
14:44Abby took Dominic into the backyard to make a snowman
14:47just the two of them
14:49yep and she went to the shed to get something and left him alone for a couple minutes
14:55when she came back he was gone
14:57and where were you
14:58what do you mean
15:00like where were you when he went missing
15:04what are you trying to say
15:08you know I
15:11yeah I do enjoy
15:15yeah I enjoy spending time with Claire and I wouldn't mind an excuse to see her more often
15:19for sure great it's a win-win
15:22but I wouldn't want to drag her into a situation that would put her in danger
15:26and if you want to derail Victor I wouldn't want to use her to go after her own grandfather
15:30it just wouldn't yeah it wouldn't feel fair
15:34well then I guess we have nothing left to talk about
15:37wait wait hang on hang on
15:38wait is this
15:41is this the only angle is this the one way that I can help you
15:44it is
15:46yeah
15:47but I understand you're not wanting to involve Claire
15:50right you know I wouldn't want to betray her trust like that
15:57I get it
16:03hi
16:04can I get a coffee to go please
16:08Kane Kane
16:09are you sure that there's nothing else that I could do for you
16:14that was the offer
16:17I'm sorry I'm sorry I let you down don't be sorry
16:21I'll find another way
16:26I'm not going to make excuses
16:28if I could go back and change what happened I would I can't
16:32that's right you can't take it back
16:36I want to take your pain away I know we can just talk
16:40I just need a little space okay please I can
16:45I can barely make it through this conversation being so close to you because it guts me
16:54what can I do
16:57how do we move forward
17:00I don't know
17:04dad
17:05hey
17:07um
17:08I will leave you two alone
17:09no no that's that's not necessary
17:13Kyle and I have plans we're uh we're having dinner together
17:17would it be futile to ask if I could join you
17:21it would
17:38I'm not implying anything I just was trying to picture everything and just wanted to know where
17:44you were
17:45while they were out building a snowman I was here I stayed inside and I wanted to go out with
17:50them and
17:50join them but I had to stay and take a work call I had to pick up a lot of
17:54slack with work while you
17:56were gone I'm sorry and I will say it as long as I have to no that's what it is
18:02and of course I would have
18:04loved to have been outside that day because if I would have been it wouldn't have happened
18:09so when did you and Abby realize that he was missing right away when she came back from the shed
18:14she saw that he was gone she looked around the whole backyard and then she came to find me and
18:18we looked around the whole property
18:20and you know we thought he was playing with us and hiding yeah I know kids do that sometimes
18:25last thing that I thought was that somebody abducted him just because of the timing of it all within minutes
18:31he was gone
18:33so I know that you were worried about how Don was being affected by all of this but I think
18:38that
18:38you and Abby should also think about how you guys are being affected
18:42we're fine we're not the ones got kidnapped it doesn't matter this is traumatizing and in these
18:48situations you tend to blame each other I don't blame Abby for sure I mean we were she was in
18:54our own
18:55backyard and she only took her eyes off him for a few minutes well what about you I mean you're
18:59not
18:59secretly blaming yourself are you no I'm not blaming myself I am upset with Mariah all right
19:05and I don't want to hear that that anger is misplaced because I really feel like it's justified
19:09all right I blame her I blame Mariah for all of this
19:15I blame myself for what happened if I hadn't left him outside if I hadn't left Dominic alone then
19:23he would have been safe you stepped away for a few minutes and that's all it took
19:29I mean we were building a snowman Abby the two of you were playing in your own backyard there's
19:34no way you were going to think that anything was going to happen to me I go over and over
19:38again
19:39in my mind what happened and if I had just done one thing differently then maybe it would have been
19:45impossible for someone to take my son and I'm going crazy over it and I feel responsible but at the
19:51end of
19:59so you think she should go to jail do you blame me nope but you don't agree
20:08look all I can say is I have been given my fair share of grace and forgiveness by people
20:14that have caused pain to in this town so you think I should forgive Mariah is that what you're saying
20:21I'm saying Mariah's trauma caused her to push Tessa and Aria obey she thought Dominic was the
20:29answer to her healing she thought somehow he was going to make her whole again because she gave birth
20:34to him you know Abby I can't tell you and Devon how to feel about any of this that that's
20:39not my
20:39place I'm not even going to try and do that but maybe one day there will be forgiveness and healing
20:46for everyone involved
21:03you want to go after him no no no what did dad say when he talked did you make any
21:11progress um I
21:12I really don't want to discuss it so the answer is no look I know this is incredibly hard
21:20and of course your anger is justified it is for all of us why do I sense there's a butt
21:27coming but
21:27you can't avoid that forever I mean we all work at the same company how will that work
21:33will you still go to the office every day be in meetings with him how will you handle that
21:41thank you well I'm still available for anything else you might need and if I'm being honest with
21:48you I uh I could use some money I'll keep that in mind you know I hope I didn't burn
21:54a bridge here
21:55I really am I'm torn that I had to turn down your offer don't worry about it I'm not going
21:59to hold
21:59it against you and if something comes up that I think you're right for I'll reach out I appreciate
22:05that and your understanding
22:22whatever issues there are between me and your father will not come up at jabot
22:27are you sure I don't really see how that's possible
22:30Kyle I am capable of continuing to do my job and and behave professionally
22:36but won't it be hard to see dad every day that could be a difficult dynamic for both of you
22:41and everyone else what do you want me to do am I supposed to stop coming into work because Jack
22:47cheated on me what I'm going to take a leave of absence so I can stay home and cry all
22:53day I'm not
22:53saying that maybe I should just you know get over myself and forgive him because god forbid I make
22:58anyone else at the office uncomfortable after what he did no no no Jack is the one who should be
23:05dealing with the fallout not me I hear you but I just don't think it's that simple mo are you
23:11saying
23:11that as co-ceo of jabot you're going to fire me if I don't fall in line and forgive your
23:18father
23:24hi there hey how are you not so good sis I've been so worried about you since you've been home
23:35I mean
23:35I'm really grateful that you're home safe
23:39what Victor has done it's unthinkable it is right now I'm more preoccupied with what I've done
23:52okay would it help to talk it through you know Diane has moved out of the house I do I
24:00don't know
24:01what the reasons are and I don't need to I'm just so sorry about everything that's happened
24:06I want to be very clear this is all on me okay you know that you can talk to me
24:12about anything
24:14I am here even if it's just to listen I was unfaithful to Diane with Patty Williams
24:24I know Billy told me when he brought you home about finding you with Patty we'll stand up brother
24:31you two have we'll mention a guy huh Jack Billy also told me you'd been drugged that's the only way
24:38that could have happened I know that all part of Victor's plan or Patty's or maybe both of them it
24:44doesn't really matter does it who came up with that particular trick all right Jack I hope you are not
24:48blaming yourself for this Victor is at fault for you being there and this woman she's always to
24:54blame for whatever havoc she makes I had a choice even on drugs I had a choice I could have
25:04resisted
25:05what the hell does it say about me that I didn't
25:13Lily Holden hi
25:17excuse me
25:24hello hi
25:27uh how should we handle these run-ins should we talk about the weather or traffic I mean if we
25:34see
25:34each other we should probably cross the street is that necessary goodbye Lily okay wait please can
25:42we please just talk you want to talk now after you repeatedly shut me out no
25:59Lily
26:00I know it's none of my business
26:03what is it
26:06I think there's something that you should know about your ex
26:10if you're willing to listen
26:17do you realize how frantic he was when you were missing
26:21I mean somewhat
26:23do you know that he sent me to LA to find out what happened to you and the kids
26:26I didn't know that but I mean it makes sense because Maddie and Charlie are his kids of course
26:31he'd be worried about them
26:32he wasn't just worried about the kids he was worried about you he wanted to find you
26:36I tore him apart not knowing if you were okay okay why are you telling me this so that I
26:42can
26:42feel bad that we weren't actually in danger wait what but you you you weren't in danger that's
26:49that's news to me so you you were just fine the whole time
26:53it's a long story but yes I'd love to hear the rest of this
26:58well the short version is that I made people think that the kids and I were in danger and we
27:02weren't and it was a bad decision I regret it and there are a lot of people that are angry
27:07with us
27:09I can't blame him Billy okay are you just trying to pile on because I don't need to hear this
27:13oh wait wait wait wait wait I honestly just wanted to warn you I think that Kane's current
27:18headspace that you have a negative effect on you but he is not in a good place
27:23years ago I would have let my ego rule claim that Diane is overreacting that
27:31she should know I wasn't in control but you know better now I used to be that guy
27:37cad the playboy yes I remember him well and honestly I like this version of you better
27:42well I'm not too happy with this version right now you see the pain I've caused the disappointment
27:47and confusion and Kyle the the hurt and Diane and they look to me for answers I don't like who
27:56they see I don't it's not the person I want to be Jack it's not the person you are I
28:04spent my whole
28:05life trying to live up to dad's example I failed yes but I kept trying and then when we lost
28:14him
28:15I knew it was my turn I turned to step up to be the head of the family to be
28:22an example for all of
28:23the abbots to protect our name to defend us against Victor or any other outside force
28:32and you have done a remarkable job Jack I had an opportunity to do the right thing
28:39on that yard I had a right choice to make
28:46and I didn't I failed I failed my wife I failed my son I failed I failed myself
28:55I was not the person I want to be Jack you were entrapped that is very different from from
29:04committing some egregious act on purpose it may be but I may have just lost the most important person
29:11in my life mom I'm not saying you should leave Jabal why would you go there well it just feels
29:18like you
29:19want me to get over it as soon as possible I want you and dad to figure things out it
29:24would kill me
29:25if you couldn't but I would never suggest that you couldn't work at Jabal anymore the company would
29:29suffer without you thank you I appreciate that but with everything that's going on I want to be
29:36realistic it will be a challenge for you and dad to face each other at work every day I just
29:43want
29:43you to be prepared my behavior will not be a problem
29:50do you think at some point you will be willing to talk to dad and try to work things out
29:55I honestly don't know Kyle mom I know it won't be easy but there there has to be a way
30:02for you to
30:02get past this you mean for me to forgive him dad hates what he did and how he hurt you
30:08he will do
30:08anything to make amends Kyle I just I feel like you're pressuring me okay I'm sorry that's not
30:14my intention and it's not fair for me to ask this of you no it's not fair it's not right
30:26hi hey you too hey how you doing I've heard Lily's back in town you must be relieved oh yeah
30:33yeah well um listen I hope you don't feel like I overstepped at all no no it was good to
30:39hear your
30:39perspective thank you for listening you're welcome thank you for the drink see you guys later bye
30:48hi hi what are you guys talking about
30:52uh well first I want to hear what's going on with you you seem riled up no I just I
30:58just um
30:59uh I got back from having a long conversation with Lily about this whole Mariah situation and she
31:06thinks that I may be misplacing my anger and maybe secretly blaming you or myself for what happened to
31:12Dominic instead of Mariah do you no I don't I think I have normal guilt about it all but this
31:20is Mariah's fault
31:23Daniel and I were talking about Mariah too oh yeah what did he say he thinks that Mariah should get
31:29treatment that it's the best option for all of us yeah that's what I heard from Lily and that's what
31:37Nate said earlier so now I I don't know what to think I know what to think they're all wrong
31:44that's what to think they all have this backwards if somebody steals a child from their home and tries
31:49to flee the country with them that's prison time I don't care who we're talking about
31:53and that's exactly what Mariah did she put our son in danger she could have hurt him she did hurt
31:58our
31:58family and she needs to pay for it I don't know I I don't know do you mean you don't
32:10know I thought we
32:10were on the same page about this we were I'm not sold on the idea of Mariah only spending time
32:20at a
32:21psychiatric facility neither am I that's my whole point but to say that she needs to spend time in
32:26prison I mean that's that's a huge jump and I just I think that we need to think this through
32:31I
32:31certainly have been and I don't think that the judge or the district attorney has been serving the
32:36community and I'm gonna make sure they don't get reelected and then what and then I want justice
32:42for our son and our family that's what this punishment that they're giving Mariah it's not good enough
32:51look I appreciate the warning but it's not necessary because I'm sure as you heard Cain wants nothing to
32:57do with me it's probably a good idea well first you wanted me to forgive him and now you want
33:02me to
33:03stay away from him there was a definite shift whatever happened with you and the kids being
33:07away it put Cain in a bad state of mind that how vindictive but you know I know that he
33:15thinks that
33:16Victor was to blame for most of what went on at least I got that sense but he's gonna go
33:20after him
33:20and it's gonna get ugly okay well I mean that tracks for Cain but why are you concerned because I
33:27saw
33:27the look in his eyes and if I were you I would keep my distance I'm not sure exactly what
33:35he has planned
33:36for Victor but whatever it is it feels big she do everything in your power not to get caught in
33:44a crossfire
33:47Kyle I have a right to my feelings to be shocked to be hurt to be angry and yes at
33:59Victor and yes
34:00at that woman but mostly at your dad
34:07I'm sorry to push you so hard no it's okay I'm I'm sorry I know this um this probably isn't
34:15easy
34:16on you either it's just I have caused you and dad so much pain these past few years
34:24thank god we were able to get past that and come together again but then there was the crisis at
34:30Chabot mom and we were so aligned working together as a family and now that's just
34:36all been blown apart it's not because of you though no I know
34:42and I realize it's selfish for me to try to push you to move past this when I know how
34:47hurt you are but
34:48what do you want me to do you want me to give up on you and dad you want me
34:54to hate him
34:57maybe I mean if I'm being honest maybe you could hate him just a little
35:04you know what Kyle um I'm not really hungry anymore I think I'm just gonna call it a night
35:10please
