01:46so
01:58so
02:00i mean i would have come to you i i didn't want to wait
02:04what is so urgent
02:06i have some
02:07disturbing news
02:09what is mariah okay
02:10yeah for now but
02:12it appears devon has it out for her and
02:16sharon if he gets his way
02:18it could change everything
02:23abby i don't get it why are you so mad at me
02:25what's so hard to get
02:26you filed a petition to review mariah's plea agreement
02:30i know i did you have a problem with that
02:32damn right i do
02:33because you did it on your own without discussing it with me
02:37what are you talking we discussed it right here
02:40this is something that had to be done
02:41i thought that
02:42what you thought they were just gonna pull mariah out of her psychiatric care facility and throw her into prison
02:48devon how could you make such a big decision without talking to me first
02:54madam
02:55you're okay
02:57i'm so worried
03:00oh my gosh
03:02i'm fine
03:04what are you doing here
03:05i mean
03:07is connor okay has something happened at home
03:09no everything's fine at home
03:11i thought something bad happened here
03:15why would you think that
03:16uh call it uh a sense
03:20i just had an instinct and what you said when you opened the door just confirmed it
03:23i wasn't expecting you shelf
03:28so who were you expecting
03:31and what kind of an update were you waiting for on nick
03:40billy you shouldn't change all of your plans just because i have a little bug
03:46really it's important for you to go to london
03:49london my mom can wait a few days until you get over whatever you're fighting
03:54okay
03:56not a big deal
03:56just stay here and make sure that you're okay
03:59you need to go check on your mom
04:02and honestly i might not even have a bug i'm probably just exhausted from overworking
04:08getting respect to charles media off the grounds finally catching up to me
04:11that's what happens when you flip into vacation mode you know you start to rest your body wants
04:16to regenerate and your immune system shuts down and all you want to do is sleep for days
04:23i
04:25i'm really sorry i ruined our trip
04:27don't be
04:29i can't believe we were already at the gate getting ready to board
04:33i could have just taken a car you should have gotten on the plane honestly if you if you hurry
04:38i'm sure you can
04:40you make the next flight and leave you here sick alone it's not gonna happen
04:46it's probably just a 24-hour bug if that
04:49go to london i'll catch up with you and i'm feeling better
04:54what's going on
04:56get the feeling that you're trying to get rid of me
05:01what do you mean
05:03devon has it out from mariah how i held a petition this morning with the appellate
05:09court to challenge the judge's decision to accept her plea agreement
05:14what why because he's opposed to mariah going to a hospital instead of prison
05:21can he do that well i mean whether it holds merit or not is yet to be determined the point
05:27is he
05:28did it the petition is filed i don't blame devon for being angry at mariah he has every right
05:35to feel that way but he also must know mariah would have never taken dominic had she been in
05:41her right mind i just never saw this coming you'd think that he would be happy that mariah's finally
05:47getting the treatment that she needs she is in a secure safe facility she is not a threat to dominic
05:55or anyone else i just don't understand this this seems cruel coming from devon and it makes no sense
06:05i think you're gonna have to help me out here because i really thought that we were on the same
06:09page
06:10and i thought that we were gonna let mariah get the treatment that she needed and then reassess
06:15the situation together it was an option we discussed it was more than just an option devon
06:23abby what if mariah convinces doctors that she's fine enough to go back into the real world are you
06:29gonna be able to live with yourself if she does it because i'm not okay the court didn't even notify
06:36the parents of the victim about this sweetheart deal that they gave her and we had the right to know
06:41i know and i wasn't happy about that okay all right so all i'm doing is asking for her sentence
06:46to be
06:46reviewed because i'm not comfortable with this whole situation all she has to do is make some people
06:51believe she's fine and they probably wouldn't even notify us that they've released her which puts
06:56dominic back in danger is that what we want of course not okay so what is the problem why are
07:01you
07:01questioning me on this you didn't have to come all this way if you had a sense that something was
07:10wrong you could have just called me i did call adam multiple times you haven't exactly been the easiest
07:16person to get a hold of well you know that i'm here on a mission so i haven't had a
07:22chance to answer
07:22the phone every time it rings for the record i did get back to you last night when i had
07:26a chance
07:27i know so if you knew you were coming why didn't you tell me when we spoke it was an
07:33impromptu
07:34decision because i could tell you're keeping something from me if you felt that way you could
07:39have just asked me and you were still dodging my questions which just confirms my suspicions
07:44item what the hell is going on and where's nick did something happen to your brother
08:09i just don't understand i thought you made a strong case that this was the best outcome for
08:17all parties involved and i thought for sure to find an happy cyber point what change apparently there's been
08:24some concern that the da and the court didn't properly consult dominic's parents about their
08:31feelings on the ruling i assumed that he and abby wanted this resolution as well
08:38damon is making the claim that mariah should be facing criminal charges child abductions felony so
08:46he's asking the court to review mariah's deal yes so it's possible the plea will be vacated
08:56and the judgment will be undone so this nightmare really isn't over is it i'm so sorry
09:04you know just when i thought that mariah was on the road to recovery this would be a real setback
09:11on so
09:12when he loves she after everything that she has been through my daughter could still end up in prison
09:22it's like everybody's so damn concerned about mariah's delicate psychological condition have we
09:27forgotten about the long-term trauma that dominic could have from being taken from his parents
09:32by someone who's pretending to be his mom calling him a different name for days i mean come on
09:37devon can you please just can you lower your voice sorry of course i have not forgotten the hell that
09:44we went through we were so worried and so terrified okay so why are you questioning my motors what i'm
09:51questioning is why you are carrying around all of this anger happy you're his mother you're dominic's
09:59mom why aren't you as angry as i am okay i know that you're upset so i'm going to let
10:05the last part
10:05of that sentence go away i'm feeling like maybe we weren't 100 clear with each other obviously we
10:13weren't okay so let me spell my position out for you please i thought a lot about this
10:23and i really do believe that hospitalization is the best thing for mariah happy i'm not insensitive to
10:30mariah's mental state okay i also think she should go to the hospital and get care she should get all
10:35the care in the world all right i love mariah we wouldn't have our son without her i just don't
10:41know if any condition excuses what she did i am not trying to get rid of you i'm not
10:53i love how caring and concerned you've been you dropped everything to bring me home and make sure
10:58i was okay and that means everything to me seriously it's one of the many reasons why i love you
11:04oh that's
11:04better so much better that's what i expected to hear i'm just really sorry that i derailed our plans
11:18you're supposed to be on your way to london it could be with your sick neighbor don't worry about
11:22that okay right now i'm going to stay with you until you feel better and then we can go to
11:26london
11:26together like we planned okay
11:33you know actually maybe you should keep your distance because i could be contagious and i really
11:38don't want you to get sick i think it's a little bit late given our proximity over the last 12
11:44hours i
11:45don't think that's something we need to worry about okay so i am going to be with you for the
11:50duration so don't push me away okay but no buts no tell me you want tea or you want soup
11:57forget it
11:59i'm gonna get you both i'll be right back
12:03all right
12:08all right
12:09all right
12:34this is chelsea and his partner mother of his child the reason knows about you and connor okay
12:42i suppose this is who you were expecting earlier yes i was expected were you it's very interesting
12:50considering what you said when you opened the door that you needed an update on nick so can someone tell
12:54me
12:54an update i'd like some answers
12:59i don't add anything from chelsea
13:03spider showed up here looking to get back into partnership with me
13:07with the crisis the family is facing i told riza that i wanted to use my old skills
13:14make us some money and i told him he'd have to prove he still has what it takes
13:20and that my new partner ronnie would have to weigh in until i could agree to take him back okay
13:24but
13:25what does this have to do with nick nick and i actually believe that ronnie was matt clark
13:31which he neglected to tell me until now i can do this reason to set up one of our high
13:38stakes
13:38poker games to prove my skills again that were so lucrative before and he did not disappoint it was clear
13:45bringing spider in would give us an opportunity to make some big bank i knew ronnie was not going
13:51to pass that up so i arranged for a meeting in my hotel room and that is when nick insisted
13:57to go to
13:57the meeting first now i didn't like the idea of nick facing matt alone but you know how stubborn my
14:04brother can be so i finally let him go you let him go alone look he was determined but we
14:09had a plan
14:10i was going to be nearby nick called me before he got into the room and he was going to
14:14leave his
14:14phone on so i could hear what was happening and when nick went in all i could hear was the
14:18door
14:19shutting and sounds of a struggle i went after him but when i got to riza's room nobody was there
14:26what i thought you were putting together this meeting with ronnie and nick ronnie asked to meet
14:32him alone and he's the boss riza came back and she found me outside but when we went inside nobody
14:37was
14:37there room was empty what nick was gone and you haven't seen him since they both disappeared and
14:45did you know that this partner of yours was really matt clark i knew ronnie was an alias because i
14:51met
14:51him first as mitch mccall when he was living in los angeles so you knew him back then
14:57our business connection goes back years we have to call sharon adam this is crazy she needs to know
15:04that nick is missing but we don't know what the situation is there's a real possibility that nick
15:09is in charge maybe he's turned the tables on that if nick was in charge right now if he was
15:13in control
15:14you would have heard from him by now adam he knows how worried you are yes and i'm expecting to
15:18hear
15:18from him any minute you can't just sit around and wait for the phone to ring this is the bad
15:24feeling
15:24i had your brother could be in serious danger okay here we go you finish this up get your blanket
15:35you
15:35can cozy up have a little rest i'll even read to you from that novel that's been sitting at your
15:40bedside table for the last few months because you constantly fall asleep every time you open it up so
15:44that and my dulcet voice do the trick wow as lovely as that sounds i i have way too much
15:53work to just
15:54sleep the day away really my schedule's too busy for that sally come on don't you think you need to
16:00slow down a little bit take it easy how can i i'm in the middle of launching a new company
16:06and besides i
16:07actually just text audra and told her that i'm not going to london today anyway so she's actually on
16:11her way over here for me to sign some contracts sally hey business doesn't stop for a minor bug
16:19minor now it's going to turn into a major bug if you don't take care of yourself now i am
16:23the doctor
16:23and i am prescribing plenty of fluids and rest okay but audra's audra already planned on working today
16:30so let's just keep it that way now let's get you some soup
16:41what that's exactly it we don't even know what moriah's mental condition is i know we don't we have
16:48no idea what made her snap or even the real reason why her and tessa aren't together anymore but i'm
16:54willing to bet that whatever it was was probably worse off than what everyone's letting on what are
16:59you suggesting i mean i don't have to suggest much she stole a child she stole a child and what
17:07scares
17:07me is that she didn't just steal any child she stole the one that she carried for nine months and
17:12had a
17:12very difficult time detaching from you know this of course i know this okay you remember when she fed him
17:18at the hospital when she wasn't supposed to there wasn't any emotional attachment yet she did it
17:23anyway i know we're happy about that she overstepped and of course i wasn't happy about that yeah she
17:30moved too after his baptism she moved not just for herself but for us because she had a hard time
17:37detaching from the baby that she gave up for us after she gave birth to him okay right and my
17:44point
17:44is her going after dominic wasn't random okay she knew what she was doing she knew why she was doing
17:53it too so wait you think mariah was in a sound state of mind i know that she was planning
17:59on never coming
18:00back with our son that's what i know and she was acting like she had every right to have him
18:04but that's
18:05not something that our friend would do if she was in her right mind i completely agree with you and
18:10let me
18:10ask you this what if those dark feelings haven't gone away or worse what if she pretends that they
18:16go away that's my point in all this i still can't get over the fact that christine and sharon didn't
18:24even think to talk to us about this plea deal and getting her psychiatric care i just don't understand
18:31why you were so hell-bent on getting revenge on someone we used to consider a close friend
18:36devon what is going on with you abby what is going on with you why am i the bad guy
18:40here
18:41i'm not the one that committed a felony transporting a kidnapped minor across state
18:46lines like why are you turning this around on me
18:51let's not jump to any conclusions not until i've had a chance to review the filing and
18:55make a proper defense for mariah in case there actually is a review
19:01and if there is would mariah need to be told what's going on and that her current situation
19:08could be changing drastically yeah she would have to know if the court agrees to it
19:15if she has to go back to court face that judge again it could wreck any progress she's made and
19:22if she has to go to prison oh let's stay at one step at a time uh the court may
19:27not even grant the
19:29review i just want to be prepared either way i can't believe this is happening just when i thought
19:34that mariah was on track to getting her life back now's it sharon even if they reopen the case
19:40it doesn't mean that it will be overturned still just the prospect of disrupting her treatment that
19:47could be a major setback and if she has to be taken out of that care facility and thrown into
19:54a jail cell
19:55that is unthinkable it's the worst possible scenario what if the worst possible happens
20:02there has to be something we can do there has to be some way we can stop this
20:10so what have you heard did you find out anything were you able to reach matt ronnie called claiming
20:17that something came up last night and he suddenly had to leave he said that he was sorry he couldn't
20:22stay to meet with you and that we'd have to schedule another time did he say when no did you
20:28find out
20:29where you're staying still working on that seems like there's a lot you don't know about the man you
20:34claim as your business partner we work together it's not like we're besties the guy's a straight
20:41up con he doesn't exactly go around giving out details about himself okay well let's just calm down
20:46we're on the same team if you don't mind i'd like to talk to adam alone oh i don't mind
20:54at all
20:55quite happy to escape this little unwarranted interrogation
21:05unwarranted interrogation really you think you can trust this woman when she's admitted to being
21:11partners with my clerk i never said i trusted her i just know her tells from my spider days okay
21:17she's not lying not about this and you're sure about that yes but there is something that i need
21:24to tell you and it doesn't involve louisa well that's a relief it involves nick and it has me worried
21:36i just don't understand why devon would do such a thing well i mean i can't imagine the panic they
21:44felt not knowing what happened to their son what mariah did was inexcusable but is he still that angry
21:53with her that he can't see how disturbed she must have been sharon mariah isn't the only one who may
22:00have suffered psychological damage i mean who knows what effect ultimately this will have on dom
22:06i helped devon and abby find a child psychologist by all reports he was fine he had one nightmare that
22:15was it and i pray that he continues to be fine but mariah is still suffering from the trauma of
22:23her
22:23childhood at the hands of ian ward he was a true psychopath you know the hallucinations she was having
22:30that was a cry for hope i mean what that man did to her was pure evil and what mariah
22:36did was awful but
22:37it was not the act of a criminal mariah knows she was wrong and she has expressed her remorse repeatedly
22:48there's only one thing we can do anything go to devon and try and convince him to reconsider
22:59please devon you're making a scene
23:03i'm sorry i you just sounded a lot like lily making me feel like i'm the problem and i don't
23:10know what
23:11i'm supposed to say here like is am i too angry is it misplaced what is it that's not what
23:17i'm saying
23:17what are you saying i'm just trying to understand where all this rage is coming from it's not rage
23:22it's not rage this is justifiable concern for our family and i don't understand why you don't feel
23:29the same way i do and i don't understand how you could make such a monumental legal decision without
23:34discussing it first i mean you filed a petition without even mentioning it to me apologize i sincerely
23:41apologize for doing that and i will never take a step like that again without you i thought we were
23:47in agreement obviously you thought wrong you know what why don't you call audrey back and tell her
23:56you're going to take the day off billy i really appreciate how concerned you are about me but i i
24:04really have a lot of work to do and ardra's already on her way honesty is our thing right right
24:16okay so
24:18be honest with me and tell me the truth are you second guessing coming to london with me
24:25no why would you think that because it feels like you'd rather just be here and work with audrey
24:31and i don't know maybe you're feeling sick even thinking about facing jill and attention between
24:36my mother and me hey billy listen to me i have no ulterior motives for second thoughts or remorse
24:44about going with you okay and the thought of facing your mother
24:49i'm just it's not that okay i'm just a little worn down okay well then that's exactly why you need
24:56to rest and just take it easy well that's exactly why i didn't get on the flight your body's trying
25:03to tell you something you need to listen i am but i'm not gonna let a minor bug keep me
25:13from being
25:13productive uh sally yeah here yeah and here audra hello you two i thought you'd be halfway to london by
25:25now
25:25yeah uh look you should probably keep your distance you want to get what this one has sally's sick
25:39what's going on with nick ever since we got to vegas i've noticed that he's been acting
25:44strange you know sort of erratic meaning one minute his mood's up the next it's down
25:54i actually think this started back in general city when he had his accident and he had a surgery
25:58on his leg yeah i remember we talked about it back then well i didn't give it much thought then
26:05but
26:06ever since we've been here i don't know between his weird behavior and his mood swings they just seem
26:12to have intensified have you tried talking to him about it asking him questions a bunch of times and he
26:19just
26:19changes the subject or he blows me off it's like he knows something's wrong but he doesn't want to
26:25talk about it so what do you think it is honestly i have to wonder if it has something to
26:31do with the
26:32painkillers he was taking after the accident
26:46where you been
26:51i was just kind of talking to spider talking talking with adam right adam that's spider's real
27:01name adam newman son of billionaire tycoon victor newman brother of wannabe superhero nick newman
27:08did you really think you're going to pull a fast one on me did you really think that
27:11that i wouldn't figure this out i don't know what you're talking about so were you in on the
27:16setup from the beginning or did nick and adam lure you in after the fact to catch big bad ronnie
27:20huh
27:22come on let's go talk to me sweet chiefs what's going on come on game's over deck's gone cold
27:30new
27:36hey i'm glad we found you together
27:41i hope you're not planning to try and change my mind about what i did this morning
27:47well we were hoping to talk to you about that yeah i don't think that's necessary i think we should
27:54save it for our arguments in court when they review mariah's plea deal because i think that the
28:00victim's parents deserve to be heard and there's nothing you're going to say that's going to change
28:04my mind about that but you don't know that if you won't even listen to what we have to say
28:09i'm not
28:10sharing it there's no need though i've made this call for my family and i think it's the right one
28:15and i'm sorry that you or no one else really sees where i'm coming from excuse me
28:25are you on board with this possibly getting the court to reverse my daughter's plea deal so she'll
28:31wind up in prison now mariah could be locked away for years are you and devon honestly okay with that
28:38i mean i doubt it would come to that right you can't be sure can you
28:44i get the sense that you and devon are not on the same page about this that's just the sense
28:50that i
28:50got when we walked in here just you would you at least listen to what sharon and i have to
28:55say
28:59i have no idea what you're talking about
29:05you're asking me to believe that you didn't do any research that you didn't know who spider
29:11really was sure i'm not denying that i knew his name i just didn't know why that would matter to
29:18you because he's a newman that's important reason something like that doesn't just slip your mind
29:24so what spider's a newman i found that out the first time around what's it to you and why do
29:33i get
29:33the feeling you were accusing me of something nefarious because i am
29:41let's go let's go see adam right now clear this whole thing up
29:47you really think nick has developed a dependency on his pain meds i think that's where it started but
29:54i'm worried it's something more serious now more serious i hate to think it but i can't ignore the
30:02signs and if i am right i mean when i think back to when i first noticed something was wrong
30:07it just
30:08it makes sense
30:12i mean it makes sense except that it's nick
30:16golden boys can still get hooked on drugs i know of course it's just just feels hard to believe you
30:22know i mean he watched his mother struggle with addiction for years so to fall into those same
30:28tendencies just seems unlikely i don't know if i'm right about this but if i am and he is into
30:34something stronger than prescription pills like nick did not get into it knowingly if he could have
30:38avoided it and controlled it he would have something stronger more serious adam what are you saying
30:47do you remember when nick told us that matt was trying to get no hooked on opioids back in la
30:53i hope i'm wrong but i fear that nick is the one who's hooked now
31:02i'm so sorry you're not feeling well talk about rotten luck that timing to get sick right before
31:09jetting off to my old hometown yeah and she should be resting and not working on solving problems
31:19i will be fine billy honesty right if the roles were reversed i guarantee you'd be putting up just as
31:27much resistance i can't argue that so please just take the next flight out go see your mom
31:34i'm sure i'll feel better tomorrow and i will be right behind that's not gonna happen okay i'm not
31:40gonna leave here alone okay you don't have to go to london all right but can you please just leave
31:49for a
31:50little bit so we can work are you kicking me out i am seriously gonna miss dr billy's bedside manner
31:59but
32:00yes please just chew for a little bit you're the patient nurse audra will take it from here

32:36hey
32:40are you sure you're okay
32:44did you bring what i asked for
32:47adam if you really think nick's got a problem you have to get him to open up to you
32:52look i tried he shuts me out every time well you have to try again i will
33:00kind of had our hands full here
33:04spider it's me reza
33:14junior one and meet again i hear you've been looking for me
33:26nobody is sorrier than mariah for what she's done she knows it was wrong she's getting the help she
33:32needs i know that the facility where she's at it's so secure abby she can't leave at will and most
33:40importantly she's getting to the root of what caused this whole breakdown in the first place
33:45i swear to you abby my daughter is no longer a threat to you or your family she's safe where
33:54she is
33:55you and dom are safe why would you want to have the court overturn her the deal
34:03devon and i went through hell thinking that we might not ever see our little boy ever again
34:09and as a mother i i'm sure that was terrifying i was terrified for you and for dom and for
34:17mariah
34:18but from one mother to another i can tell you you never stop worrying about your kids
34:25and i know mariah is an adult so for me to compare my concern for her to yours towards your
34:32little boy
34:33may be wrong it's it's not wrong to care about mariah's well-being
34:39you must still have some debt of gratitude toward mariah for helping you bring your amazing boy into
34:46the world of course we do i mean we wouldn't have dominic if it wasn't for mariah that's what makes
34:52us so much more painful but if devon gets his way mariah could possibly spend a lot of time in
35:01prison
35:03i think that's exactly what devon wants i'm afraid if that happens that will break her for good she will
35:12never recover look i know what mariah did was wrong but dom was never in any danger she never would
35:24harm
35:24him throughout this whole nightmare one thing i know for a fact is that her heart was with dom the
35:32whole time somehow through all of this illness which led her to do this her heart always protected
35:39dominic but if devon gets what he wants if mariah does go to prison that heart will break for good
35:50and she doesn't deserve that does she you wouldn't want that for her would you
36:01you know it's funny how buying this so makes me feel exposed like everyone knows my business
36:07you know like a terrified teenage girl but we aren't that no nope we are grown-ass women
36:19so
36:22so
36:25are you sure this is even necessary maybe it's something you ate or or that bug that's going
