00:06Yes?
00:07Diane Abbott?
00:08Ah, that's me. For you.
00:11Is that from Jack Abbott?
00:14I don't know, ma'am.
00:37Look, this serum has been struggling for a while.
00:39I mean, corporate marketing suggests we do it all together, rebrand.
00:43We target different demographics.
00:45We go after micro-influencers and adjacent communities.
00:48What do you think?
00:51New name, new demographic, it's the same product.
00:54We can tout the attributes all we want.
00:57If it's fundamentally flawed, why are we throwing good money after bad?
01:01Maybe we should just dump the whole damn thing.
01:03Come on.
01:04Coming from the guy who loves nothing more than reviving a product the world has declared dead?
01:08You love this stuff, proving the naysayers wrong.
01:11Maybe the naysayers are right sometimes.
01:13The numbers certainly support it.
01:16Okay, my advice...
01:18I'll just table this for now.
01:19Wait, we have to decide.
01:20What?
01:21No, I understand, but I think your lack of enthusiasm has more to do with the hell you've been going
01:26through than the product itself.
01:29Then you could be right.
01:38Hi.
01:38Hi.
01:39I hope you don't mind me dropping by unannounced.
01:42Your office said you were working at home today.
01:44Please come in.
01:45Not much work is getting done.
01:48Oh, Jack, you're exhausted.
01:50I can vouch for the fact that he spends most nights pacing.
01:55Is it just me, or does it seem like things are getting worse by the moment?
02:00It is definitely not just you.
02:03What a game, or anything?
02:32I'll just say.
02:41What do you mean that Summer's Conglomerate will cease to exist
02:45and Phyllis will lose everything?
02:48I have it on good authority that there's already a plan in motion
02:53to burn it to the ground.
02:56Ah.
02:58And does this authority happen to be Victor?
03:02It does.
03:04He summoned me to the ranch to share what he has in mind.
03:10Well, it's no surprise that Victor would attempt to get his company back.
03:16But does he really expect Phyllis and me to just give in, go down without a fight?
03:25Given what Victor has in mind, it's pretty much a sure thing that Phyllis is going down
03:34and I don't want her dragging you down with her.
03:41Okay, well, then it's a good thing you cleared out your office.
03:44And by the way, you don't get to resign.
03:47I'm firing you.
03:57Great.
03:59That's perfect.
04:08Sitting alone, I see.
04:10That's no shock.
04:12I'm waiting for someone.
04:14So calm, cool, and collected, aren't you?
04:18You don't look at all like a woman who just had her family empire ripped out from under
04:23her by me.
04:24You look so tense.
04:26Is everything good at Summer's conglomerate?
04:29You know how it's going at Summer's conglomerate.
04:31Guess what?
04:32Your daddy isn't going to get away with it.
04:35I have no idea what you're talking about.
04:37Oh, you expect me to believe that.
04:39I don't care what you believe.
04:40What did you guys do, Victoria?
04:42Would you pay all the employees off?
04:45Did you threaten them?
04:47Did your daddy do it alone?
04:49Did you help?
04:50Guess what?
04:51It doesn't matter to me.
04:54Siphoning off all of my employees isn't going to change anything.
04:59It's not going to ruin me.
05:02If you think that, think again.
05:04The only one who might want to do some rethinking is you.
05:14I won't keep you long.
05:15I just wanted to check in.
05:18Actually, I was just head to the office.
05:20We'll circle back for making a decision on that, Sarah.
05:23Agreed.
05:24And I'll text you to let you know the coast is clear.
05:27Yeah, I would appreciate that.
05:28Thanks.
05:29What's that about?
05:31After my encounter with Diane yesterday, I thought it would be too painful for her to
05:35see me two days in a row.
05:37How ironic.
05:38When I stopped by at Chabot, they told me that Diane is working outside of the office as well.
05:44I guess I'll have the place all to myself.
05:46That might be a good thing.
05:48That means Diane's still at the hotel, hopefully receiving my last-ditch efforts to get through
05:54to her.
06:13My darling wife, it seems no matter how hard I try to win you back, I only succeed in pushing
06:20you farther away.
06:25I am doing everything I can to give you space to let you process what has happened.
06:30I will stop making excuses.
06:32I was wrong.
06:34And what kills me the most is knowing how deeply I hurt you.
06:40I know there is a part of you that wants to never speak to me again, to shut me out,
06:44to
06:45shut out the pain.
06:48But I hope there's another part of you, deep in your tender heart, that knows I love you
06:55more than life itself.
06:57That you will one day be able to look at me again with the love I feel for you.
07:03The love that will never change.
07:05The love that is forever.
07:07The love that is forever.
07:23Once old, I just feel big.
07:30Ah.
07:31Ah.
07:32Ah.
07:33Ah.
07:34Ah.
07:35Ah.
07:37Ah.
07:37Ah.
07:37Ah.
07:45I know you've been worried about this
07:48That if Victor went after Phyllis
07:50That I would be collateral damage
07:52You won't let that happen
07:53I'm not a damsel that needs rescue
07:56Uh, you're one of the smartest women I know
08:00And are perfectly capable
08:01Of taking care of yourself
08:04With a little assist
08:06Now and then
08:09And you advise that I get out now
08:12All I can
08:13Not the worst idea
08:16Is this Victor talking?
08:18Did he tell you to whisper dire consequences in my ear?
08:24He's concerned
08:25As I am
08:26Is this you protecting me?
08:30Or are you doing that man's bidding?
08:34I can't believe that you think
08:36I would actually try to play you at Victor's behest
08:41Wouldn't be the first time
08:45Fair enough
08:47But I've learned my lesson
08:49But I've learned my lesson
08:49These are facts
08:51And I'm not sharing them with you to scare you off
08:55But to make sure that you are fully informed
08:57As to what you're going up against
09:01And as stated
09:02I have every confidence in the world
09:05I can
09:06Give me a little assistance
09:08Give me a little assistance
09:09I'm going to do that
09:12So do you know Victor's plan?
09:14I do
09:15So do I
09:17You do
09:18I do
09:18There was a mass exodus
09:21At Summer's conglomerate this morning
09:24It's already happening
09:25Yes
09:26People without notice
09:27Packing up their desks
09:29Their offices
09:30Their cubicles
09:31And of course we
09:32Instantly suspected that Victor was behind it
09:36Your suspicions wouldn't be wrong
09:41Wow Victoria
09:43Was that a threat?
09:44Are you trying to threaten me?
09:46That's so cute
09:47No
09:47So weak
09:48No
09:48I'm just offering some advice
09:50Well keep your advice to yourself
09:52And by the way when you see your daddy
09:54Tell him his big move to take me down was a bust
09:57Is that right?
09:58Yeah
09:59In fact you did Lauren and me a favor
10:01I mean we don't have to pay severance
10:03It's win-win for us
10:05You know it's hard
10:06To run a multinational corporation
10:08With all of those empty offices
10:11I mean you think replacing all those losers
10:13Is going to be hard?
10:14It's not going to
10:15You think you could beat me at my game?
10:17That's never going to happen
10:24Oh well good morning Diane
10:26Oh my god
10:27It's a beautiful day isn't it?
10:30The air is absolutely inspiring
10:32Leave me alone
10:33Oh
10:34You look a little peaked
10:36The air and sunshine might do you some good as well
10:39The only thing that would do me good
10:41Is when you leave town
10:43Well Diane
10:44I have every right to be here
10:46I have been given a clean bill of mental health
10:50From my doctors
10:51As you know
10:52So I am as sane as anyone in this town
10:57Although that's not saying much
10:59I don't know how you convince those doctors
11:02That you deserve to be released
11:04But I know the truth
11:05And so does everyone else
11:07And no one wants you here
11:09Are you sure about that?
11:12Well
11:13It might be hard for you to accept
11:16But
11:18Jack
11:18Is very happy
11:21That I'm back
11:23Oh
11:24If only you could have seen the smile on his face
11:27Before you caught us in bed together
11:30They're delusional
11:31Oh
11:31And it's just a matter of time
11:32Before I put it there again
11:34And again
11:37And again
11:38Get out of my way
11:40I mean
11:41Diane
11:41It's not like
11:42You're by his side
11:44He's stuck in this
11:45Hell hole
11:47Hmm?
11:49Obviously you're punishing the poor man
11:51And I am more than happy
11:53To console him
11:54You are the last thing
11:56That Jack needs right now
11:57Oh
11:58Back at you babe
12:02When are you going to realize
12:03That you don't deserve a man like Jack?
12:06I mean
12:07You might have
12:08Done a decent job
12:10At reincarnating yourself
12:12But
12:14I know who you are
12:17You are the woman
12:19Who slept with Jack
12:21When I was pregnant with our child
12:23I lost that baby because of you
12:26That was because you fell
12:28After I saw the two of you
12:30Having sex in his office
12:33My world imploded
12:36Because of you
12:39Hmm
12:41I
12:42I found the strength to fight my way to sanity
12:46Oh
12:47And how many people have you poisoned
12:50Kidnapped
12:51And shot
12:52In the process
12:53I regret all of it
12:56I'm here to make this right
12:58Make amends
12:59Amends?
13:00By being part of Victor's disgusting kidnapping scheme?
13:04You're as sick as you ever were
13:06You landed the husband
13:09And the money
13:10And the fairy tale life
13:12You dressed yourself up in good deeds
13:14And whatever shade of honesty works for you
13:18But the crafts
13:20Diane
13:21They're starting to show
13:22Aren't they?
13:24And when it collapses
13:26And it will
13:29You'll be far more dangerous than I ever was
13:49I will see you tonight
13:50Oh wait
13:51You haven't eaten yet
13:52Mrs. Martinez put together this
13:54Multi-course working breakfast for us
13:57I'm sorry to miss it
13:58But I'll grab something on the way to the office
14:00I'll see you later
14:02It's good to see you, Nikki
14:03You too
14:09He's very concerned about you
14:11He is the rock
14:12I never would have admitted I needed
14:14But it's taken a toll on him
14:16And I hate that
14:17I've noticed the same thing in Victoria
14:21I guess no matter how old our children become
14:24They still want to root for their parents to get back together
14:27Well, I'm sorry to say this
14:28But I'm not holding out much hope
14:30That Kyle's dreams will come true
14:33Don't tell me you're giving up on Diane
14:35I don't want to
14:36It just seems that way
14:38I'm sorry
14:39Yes, so am I
14:43Crestfallen is a better word
14:44And look, as remorseful as I feel
14:46I'm also angry
14:48That she refuses to even discuss it
14:51She doesn't give me the least benefit of the doubt
14:54We're talking about Patty Williams here
14:56I mean, there's no way in any state
14:59I would willingly go there
15:04Well, maybe for Diane
15:06It's less about the willing
15:08And more that she can't accept the fact that it happened at all
15:12Yeah, I'm having a bit of a problem accepting that fact myself
15:15I always thought our love was
15:18Indestructible
15:19Diane and I have survived so much
15:21And always come out on the other side stronger
15:24Well, a lot of that is due to your ability to forgive
15:28I'm sorry that Diane
15:30No, no, no
15:31Don't blame Diane for this
15:33There you go again
15:34Finding understanding for her
15:36When she won't or won't even try to find it for you
15:40Right now, I'm busy
15:42Blaming Victor
15:43Can you believe he used Patty Williams as a weapon against me?
15:48Now, he would bring that woman back to town
15:50After everything she has done
15:52All of the heartache she has caused
15:55And to put your marriage and your life in jeopardy
16:00It is absolutely disgusting
16:05My children's dream of seeing their parents reunited may be just that
16:10An impossible dream
16:14The thing about my father
16:15Is that one of his superpowers is
16:18He can always see his enemies coming
16:21Yeah, well, I saw him coming
16:23I checkmated
16:24That's what I did
16:25You know, I'm not too worried about any other lame move that he has against me
16:29Well, you should enjoy being in my father's office
16:31Because you're not going to be there for long
16:33Hmm
16:33Oh
16:35Great
16:36The day just got great
16:39Hi
16:39Hi, thanks for joining me
16:41My pleasure
16:41Yeah
16:43For the most part
16:44You said it was important
16:46Yes, it's very important
16:47Actually, um
16:48Do you want to sit at the bar to look like
16:50You think that I want to overhear your conversation
16:53I can think of nothing more boring than you two droning on and on
16:59Oh, I can guarantee that you would not find this conversation boring
17:02In fact, I think you'd find it very interesting
17:04Oh, really?
17:05Really?
17:06Yeah, Phyllis is upset because, uh, apparently dozens of employees quit rather than work for the woman who stole my
17:13family's company
17:13Okay, that's not the truth
17:15And you know what's even sadder than that?
17:17Her own daughter won't even speak to her anymore because of what she's done
17:21That's right
17:22And her son feels the same
17:23Oh, I'm very well aware of how Dan is
17:26Yeah
17:26Oh, okay
17:29What are you talking about?
17:31It's none of your business, Phyllis
17:33At least not at this stage
17:35What is that supposed to mean?
17:38I guess you're just going to have to wait and find out
17:43How's Phyllis handling the walkout?
17:45How do you think?
17:47Like a badass
17:49Completely proactive
17:50When I left her, she was texting and emailing every candidate we could think of to fill the vacancies
17:56Not an easy task
17:58I was very concerned about this walkout
18:01That it would completely derail all of our plans to reinvent this company
18:05But Phyllis said this actually gives us an amazing opportunity
18:10To handpick a loyal, brilliant staff
18:16With you at the top of the list
18:18You suggested me
18:20Well, she did, but of course I agreed
18:22There's no sharper mind
18:25I'm flattered
18:26So is that a yes?
18:29Because with you as head of legal
18:31And all of the top talent that we plan to recruit
18:34We show Victor that we survived this attack
18:38And we ended up on top
18:40I'm afraid to tell you
18:42I'm afraid to tell you
18:42This isn't the master plan
18:44This is just step one
18:48There's more?
18:49I'm afraid so
18:52And it's predatory
18:58You probably want to get back to your office
19:01Work on those staffing issues
19:05You don't think I see what you're doing
19:07Trying to get the bug on your side
19:11She can't hurt me
19:14My day started off so well
19:16I definitely didn't expect a run-in with Phyllis
19:19Yeah, I'm sorry about that
19:21Oh gosh, the woman's insufferable
19:23What she's doing to your family is appalling
19:27How are you doing?
19:29Well, we're definitely struggling
19:32But it's a little overwhelming
19:34If I think about it too much
19:35Because you know my father
19:37Newman's don't wallow
19:38They're proactive
19:40We keep our eye on the prize
19:43What is the prize exactly?
19:46I was going to congratulate you
19:48Although it may be a little too early
19:52Congratulate?
19:53We've heard that you've been offered the DA position
19:56You know about that?
19:57Oh, you know my dad
19:58He always has his finger on the pulse
20:01Of everything consequential in Genoa City
20:04Why would what's happening at the DA's office
20:07Be consequential to Victor?
20:10What are you up to?
20:13An easy life's the head that wears the crown
20:16What?
20:18You feel on the way to that shining new crown?
20:20Yeah
20:22You know
20:23Yeah
20:24I'll always be wearing the crown
20:26You know why?
20:27Because I'm finally getting what I worked so hard for
20:29What I earned
20:30And it feels amazing
20:33And why do you look so unhappy?
20:44Oh, thank you
20:47Predatory
20:48That's a very scary word
20:51What is Victor's strategy?
20:56Well
20:59He's going to give Phyllis a taste of her own medicine
21:01To quote him
21:05He's developed this AI program
21:08That will embed documents
21:10A chancellor
21:11That will provide evidence that
21:13Phyllis
21:14Along with Payne and Billy
21:16Illegally took control of Newman Enterprises
21:19And its entities
21:22Fake evidence
21:23Fake evidence
21:23I know
21:25Well, has he pulled the trigger yet?
21:27I mean, is this a reality?
21:28It's already set in motion
21:30It will use the facts of what Phyllis actually did
21:34To create receipts
21:35Texts, emails, documentation
21:36All generated to look like the real deal
21:39Fraud, conspiracy
21:41Corporate espionage
21:42You name it
21:43And the fabricated evidence
21:46Will be strong enough
21:47And believable enough
21:49To destroy her
21:52Unless she gives back
21:54The company, right?
21:57That is correct
21:59She's so proud
22:01Of what she's done
22:02And she's so excited
22:05About what we are about to do
22:06With this company
22:07She's never going to go for that
22:09Well then
22:09She will suffer the consequences
22:11As will Billy
22:12And
22:15Kane
22:22I know you said that
22:24Um
22:26I can't tell her
22:28But
22:29I feel like
22:30I need to warn her
22:31I need to tell her
22:33What Victor's plan is
22:36Well, I suppose
22:37It doesn't matter
22:37If you do or not
22:38Since the game
22:39Is already afoot
22:40And I assume
22:42That you are going to
22:42Stay firmly by her side
22:44Yes
22:45If I'm right
22:46I'm going to
22:47I'm going to do everything
22:48I can to have her back
22:49Alright, fine
22:50Okay
22:51And since I've committed
22:53To having your back
22:55We have no choice
22:56But to deal with this together
22:59So
23:00Does that mean
23:01That you're coming in
23:02As the head of legal?
23:05You're not hearing me
23:08If Victor has his way
23:10There will no longer
23:11Be a company
23:12To represent
23:14Which is why
23:15We have to convince
23:16Our friend
23:16To get out
23:17From under this
23:18Before it all
23:19Goes public
23:21And you're not hearing me
23:23There is no way
23:25That Phyllis is going to
23:26Cave
23:26To Victor's blackmail
23:28Oh, okay
23:29Well
23:30Given the serious criminal charges
23:32She may be facing
23:34The years
23:35Decades
23:36She could be behind bars
23:37This is her only chance
23:38To save her reputation
23:40Such that it is
23:41To save her life
23:45I'm telling you
23:46Mrs. Martinez
23:47Outdid herself
23:48You sure you're not hungry?
23:50Her
23:51Ginger scones
23:52Are pretty amazing
23:53So are the
23:54Blueberry muffins
23:56Well, I have to say
23:57I've never passed
23:58On a scone
23:59Coming right up
24:02Your favorite
24:04Along with a couple
24:05Of extras
24:09Cozy
24:11Diamond
24:11Yeah, although
24:12I shouldn't be surprised
24:14Seeing the
24:14Two of you together
24:16It's
24:17Practically a theme
24:18I just came by
24:20To check on
24:20To check on
24:21Your dear
24:22Dear friend
24:24What would he do
24:24Without you?
24:26I should go
24:27No, no
24:28Nikki, please
24:28Stay
24:29I mean, after all
24:30Jack did get all the trouble
24:32To put together
24:32A plate of your
24:34Favorites
24:36Besides
24:36I'm not staying long
24:39I, uh
24:40I ran into Patty
24:41This morning
24:43I'm sure that was unpleasant
24:46It was
24:48But you know
24:49What's even
24:49More unpleasant?
24:52You thinking
24:53That a piece
24:54Of jewelry
24:54Will somehow
24:55Make this all okay
24:58As I said
24:59In my letter
25:00Jack
25:00I
25:02I read the letter
25:03And it
25:04It was nice
25:05And I'm
25:06I'm sure
25:07It was sincere
25:08But I
25:09I can't
25:11I
25:11I won't
25:13Accept this
25:29That was cheesy
25:31Heidi Williams
25:35What's the matter?
25:37Kitty cat got your toe?
25:38What are you doing here?
25:40Well, it has been a long time, fellas
25:42Not long enough
25:44You still holding a grudge?
25:46A grudge?
25:47You tried to kill my daughter
25:48I'll be holding a grudge
25:49For the rest of my life
25:50Yeah
25:51You know how sorry I
25:53Oh my god
25:54I heard rumors
25:56That you were out of the psych hospital
25:58I didn't believe it
25:59Who the hell would do that?
26:01Who the hell would let you
26:02And your murderous toxic mind
26:04Back into the world?
26:11Please don't do this
26:13The ring is not a bribe
26:15It is a gift
26:16I want you to have it
26:17How can I accept it?
26:20Accepting it
26:21Is basically saying that I
26:23Forgive you
26:24And I'm just not ready to do that
26:26Do you think the day will ever come
26:27When you will be ready?
26:30Are you enjoying this?
26:32Of course not
26:34I want nothing more than for you and Jack
26:37Oh, admit it
26:37You've never thought that I was good enough for Jack
26:40And lucky for you
26:41Now that I'm staying at the athletic club
26:43You can just waltz in here
26:45Anytime you like
26:46And have them all to yourself
26:48Are you happy now, Nikki?
26:54You were one of the best EAs
26:57That Genoa City has ever had
26:59That's very sweet of you
27:01Oh, it's true
27:02I mean, you were so passionate
27:04The integrity that you would bring to the job
27:06Is exactly what the city needs
27:08Well, I did love the work
27:10Seeing justice done in a world
27:12Where it doesn't happen enough
27:14I hope you know
27:15That the Newmans
27:16As a family
27:17Share your commitment to justice
27:19Yes, I am aware
27:22Yes, I am aware that the Newmans
27:22Are committed to justice
27:25Especially when it serves them
27:28Well, there's nothing wrong with applauding
27:30When the right decision is made
27:33And you have proven very effective at making those decisions
27:37Yeah, I still haven't decided
27:41I haven't decided if I'm going to take this job or not
27:42Oh, well, what would ensure that that happens
27:46Yeah, it's a popular place this morning
27:49I think you saw Phyllis
27:52Yeah, I suppose even bottom feeders need to eat
27:57She didn't seem too happy
27:59Are you the reason for that?
28:01I sure as hell hope so
28:04I have addressed the issues
28:07Done the work
28:08And I have true remorse for all the people I hurt
28:11Even you
28:12You don't have any remorse
28:14You haven't made amends
28:15My daughter could have died because of you
28:18But she is alive and well
28:20And I have been given a second chance
28:22Which I plan to take full advantage of
28:24And you, Phyllis
28:26You have been given
28:28More than a few second chances yourself
28:31I think you would have some compassion
28:34For what I'm going through right now
28:35You are beyond redemption
28:39Beyond therapy
28:40Beyond help of any kind
28:41That you think you're owed some peace
28:44Shows how delusional you really are
28:46My peace is all I want
28:50Really?
28:51Did you get a little peace
28:54On that boat with Jack?
28:56Did you?
28:57Oh, Phyllis, you have no idea
28:59Yeah, I'm sure
29:00You know, you were part of a kidnapping
29:03It makes you complicit
29:04I should call the authorities right now
29:06Yeah, well, I was invited aboard
29:08As a guest
29:09Jack should have thrown you overboard
29:12How is Summer?
29:14I mean, she's such a beautiful girl
29:15Shut up, girl
29:15Shut up, don't mention my daughter's name
29:17Please, shut up
29:18You were close, I mean, you were practically
29:18Are you still practically besties?
29:20I mean, or you being you
29:23Maybe she
29:25Finally saw what the rest of us already know
29:28What the hell are you talking about?
29:31I would love to, uh
29:33Stay and chat some more
29:35But I have some place to be
29:38Oh
29:43You should see a professional
29:45About that anger
29:47Incredibly unhealthy
29:56Was it really just yesterday
29:58That we were celebrating
29:59With champagne and roses?
30:02Huh
30:02The bubbles and the flowers
30:04Weren't even the best part
30:05Huh
30:07Now we have a war on our hands
30:09Unless we could avoid it
30:12Oh
30:12I'm so glad you're both here
30:14Are you all right?
30:16Have you already heard?
30:17Yeah, that Patty Williams is back on the streets
30:20Yes
30:21Uh, should we call the authorities
30:23And have them put her back in the hospital?
30:25I mean, we should we do
30:26Uh, well, as unnerving as it is
30:28To have Patty back in town
30:30I spoke with Tracy
30:31Who's been in contact with Paul
30:33And, uh, it's genuine
30:35She's actually been deemed cured
30:39The hell she is
30:40Well, for what it's worth
30:42At least we all are aware that she's back
30:44We'll have her guard up
30:46No surprises
30:47Oh
30:47I mean, as long as my family is safe
30:50I
30:50I guess
30:52I guess I'm gonna have to hope for the best, right?
30:55Anyway
30:56Okay
30:56Uh, did you tell them about our job offer?
30:59I'm hoping you'll say yes
31:01The answer is, uh
31:05I'd like to start by giving the principles of Summer's conglomerate
31:10Some
31:11Extremely sound legal advice
31:15I really should be going
31:17You know, that's not a bad idea
31:19Instead of focusing so much energy on my marriage
31:22You might want to pay attention to what's left of yours
31:25Although how you could forgive that man for what he did to your bestie here is just
31:29Beyond me
31:31I have not forgiven Victor
31:33He's gone too far
31:35Oh, come on
31:36How many times have we heard that over the years?
31:38But you always go back
31:40A new car
31:41A new shiny bauble
31:43Hey, who knows?
31:45There might be a gift bag waiting for you
31:46There's no reason to drag Nikki into our
31:48Oh, of course, Jack
31:48Of course
31:49You're dumping to her defense
31:49I don't mean to make you angry
31:51Oh
31:52Though it seems that's all I can do lately
31:54I just
31:59I love you
32:03No strings
32:04No tricks
32:05No bribes
32:05I
32:05I just want
32:08For you to someday soon
32:09Be able to look at me
32:11And once again see the man
32:12Who promised to be your home
32:16Flawed, yes
32:18Imperfect, yes
32:19But ready to open my arms to you
32:21Anytime you are ready
32:26Enjoy your scouts
32:36So you still think I'm too quick to believe that my marriage is over?
32:45Thank you for coming by
32:48I wanted to commend you on a job extremely well done
32:53I wasn't sure whether to reach out to you
32:57But the results speak for themselves
33:00Well, it's definitely the best decision I've ever made
33:09How's Harrison?
33:11He's great
33:12Especially given everything that's happened after what your father pulled
33:16Well, I'm glad to hear he's doing well
33:19You know, I'd appreciate it if you didn't ask about my family like you cared
33:23We've had this conversation more than once
33:26You know where I stand
33:27What I feel the right thing for you and your entire family to do is to rein in your father
33:33I... I'm sorry
33:35Yeah, well, that means about the same as Phyllis saying those words to you
33:40Nothing
33:41No
33:42Excuse me
33:48What was that all about? What did Victor do?
33:50Oh, my father lost everything for Phyllis
33:52So, obviously he's desperate to make it right
33:56Yeah, but Victor's version of justice can be a little out there
34:01He was the victim
34:03You can't say the same thing about Phyllis
34:06What she did was diabolical
34:10That's one of the reasons I asked you to meet, Ashley
34:13Or maybe the only reason
34:16What would you say if I told you I was privy to some information
34:20That you might find very interesting if you step back in as a DA
34:27What kind of information?
34:29The kind that would take Phyllis down
34:32For good
34:35I love to hear sound legal advice
34:38Especially from our head of legal at Summer's Conglomerate
34:43I'll get straight to the point
34:45Life is about to get very, very bad for you
34:48Okay
34:49Wow
34:50My goodness
34:51Well, that's a bad attitude
34:53Especially from our head of legal
34:55Does this have to do with Victor's loyalist quitting?
34:59It's more than that
35:00Your business isn't the only thing in jeopardy
35:03It's personal
35:04It's as nasty as it gets
35:07Victor is about to put you in serious legal jeopardy
35:11Oh, is he?
35:14Okay
35:14Well, I don't have any friends
35:16Present company excluded, of course
35:19My kids don't even want to live on the same planet as I do
35:23So if I can handle that
35:25I can handle any sort of personal attack
35:27Victor wants to throw my way
35:29It's very serious
35:32And it's real
35:33But I can offer you a way out
35:40I think I'm going to have to resign myself to the fact that
35:44Diane will never get past what happened on that yacht
35:49She's definitely put up a lot of walls
35:53But
35:54That could be a good thing
35:58How can you even say that?
36:01Obviously
36:01She is still hurting because
36:03She is still very much in love with you
36:05And I believe that
36:07Where there is love
36:09There is hope
36:10It is hard to find even a glimmer of hope
36:15When the woman I love can barely look at me
36:18I have tried everything
36:20Nothing works
36:22I know how you feel
36:25Seems that
36:26Both of our marriages are
36:28Reaching the desperate time stage
36:32Might be time for the nuclear option
36:38Newman Ranch 2.0
36:41Huh
36:44Very impressive
36:47I am honored to have been invited
36:49Definitely beats transacting our business over burner phones
36:56Now Patty, there's a matter of payment
37:00And you and I
37:03Let me keep that
37:04Between the two of us
37:06Oh
37:07Just like old times
37:08I will be paid as discussed, right?
37:14Why don't you see for yourself?
37:23I have never seen anything so beautiful
37:29It's one job well done
37:32Thank you
37:32For the opportunity
37:34And taking a chance on me
37:36And
37:37Letting me prove what I can do
37:40What you did was beyond expectations
37:45So now you're going to leave town, is that it?
37:48Oh, I don't know
37:49I
37:49I forgot how much I miss Genoa City
37:54So
37:56We'll see about that
37:57But
37:58Thank you
37:58I
