00:00When will you're just to be available? I want to get this scrape fixed ASAP.
00:05Keep me posted.
00:07There's Baldwin. Any chance the blood tests are in on Bergman?
00:11Timing couldn't be more perfect.
00:14Sorry, I couldn't help overhearing the reunion accident.
00:17No, I just wasn't paying attention.
00:20I scraped the side of my ass here in an important garage.
00:24Dang.
00:27Hi.
00:27Hi. Who's in my ass? Hi.
00:30Lord, who it is?
00:32I don't see you in forever, and now I get to talk to you twice in one day.
00:36Well, now I'm glad I get to finally say this in person.
00:40Congratulations, Congresswoman.
00:41Thank you, Isaiah.
00:42And I went to be in touch sooner, but things got...
00:45A little busy?
00:47You are representing poor Charles and taking care of true at home.
00:52How do you manage all that?
00:54So tell me, how are you and Jordan holding up?
00:58Well, Jordan's overall health is good.
01:00Her kidney is undamaged and functioning fine.
01:04Well, that's good news.
01:06Yeah, it is.
01:07But the wound to her face?
01:11Laura, Jordan could be scarred permanently, and she is struggling to come to terms with it.
01:16Oh, I am sure that she is.
01:19Oh, I'm so sorry.
01:21Is there anything I can do?
01:23Well, that's actually why I'm here.
01:26Oh?
01:27I don't want to impose.
01:29But I need someone to help me figure this out, and you are the only person I trust.
01:35Well, please have a seat and tell me.
01:40Well, we're trying to find the driver of the other vehicle from the accident.
01:48And have you been able to?
01:50Nothing for certain, but there's reason to believe it's Porsche's boyfriend, Isaiah Cannon.
01:58Hi.
01:59Oh, hey, Alexis.
02:01Since you take it?
02:02No, not at all.
02:03It's all yours.
02:04It's a good day for a power walk, huh?
02:06Yeah, well, it's not my choice.
02:08I lost a bet with the girls, and now I have to walk four times a week because they say
02:12it'll reduce my stress.
02:14Although I feel more stressful when I'm walking because I'm thinking about all the things that I'm not doing while
02:18I'm walking.
02:20Well, at least they got you out of the office and into the fresh air.
02:23No, I'm kind of used to the air in my office.
02:26And where this fresh air might shock my lungs.
02:29Now, who is that beauty?
02:31This is Phoebe.
02:36Hey, do you have a second?
02:38Hey, Jocelyn, what's up?
02:43I'm concerned.
02:45About you or about me?
02:46Director, call him.
02:48How's he doing?
02:48Is he going to be released soon?
02:50All right, first I find you in his room.
02:53And now you're here again asking about him.
02:55Why are you so interested?
03:03Hey, you.
03:04Hey.
03:08What is it?
03:09It's Rocco.
03:10We have to do something before he gets himself into some real trouble.
03:14Good afternoon, Chief Brennan.
03:15Jacinda, show us.
03:17I hope I'm not interrupting.
03:19I'll let Miss Reeves know you're here.
03:20No, I'm sorry.
03:20She already knows I'm coming.
03:22Still, everyone deserves a warning before you show up.
03:28Uh, go right in.
03:34Chief Brennan, what are you doing here?
03:37Well, shouldn't be a surprise.
03:38You knew I was coming.
03:39Yes, but I was hoping desperately that you'd be unavoidably detained.
03:44Since that didn't happen, what do you want?
03:46A ceasefire.
03:48I think it's time that we reset the tone of our relationship.
03:54Let me cook you dinner again.
03:56You liked it last time.
03:57It was delicious, but I think it's safer if I just bring home dinner from the Metro Court.
04:01No, come on.
04:01I can't take another night to take out.
04:03That's a five-star restaurant.
04:05Let me just see what you got.
04:06I'm sure I can whip something together that's delicious and healthy.
04:09After all, your body is a, uh, temple.
04:33I'm concerned about Colum.
04:36I'm concerned about my mother.
04:38Losing Jason has hit her hard.
04:41But if Colum makes a recovery, he might remember something that helps Jason.
04:46I, I, I doubt that Colum is looking to do Jason any favors.
04:52Yeah, you're probably right.
04:53But Colum's account of what happened may clarify why Jason did what he did.
04:59Even if he doesn't mean to, he could help Jason's defense.
05:02So you're, you're going to do what?
05:04Talk to him yourself?
05:06Try to appeal to his better nature?
05:09Because I can tell you, he doesn't have one.
05:11Look, I know that it sounds stupid thinking I can somehow get through to Colum.
05:17But with Jason gone, I'm worried that my mom could do something reckless.
05:24Mom, you're in the kitchen.
05:25Go, go, go, go.
05:25Uh, yeah, in here.
05:29Wait, oh, God.
05:30Someone else here?
05:31No, just you.
05:33It's so good to see you.
05:35Me too.
05:35I'm not interrupting you today.
05:37Oh, no, no.
05:38What's on your mind?
05:40I think I finally figured out how to handle Willow.
05:43Oh, God, what's she done now?
05:45No, that's not what she did.
05:47That's what she's going to do.
05:49She just needs a little push.
05:51Thank you for coming to see me.
05:52I assume Nina told you a little about my visit with Drew.
05:57My mom said you stopped by.
05:59Oh, okay.
06:02Did something happen?
06:04Yeah, something very promising.
06:07When I was with Drew, he started blinking SOS several times.
06:12He was asking for help.
06:14Why wouldn't your mother tell you that?
06:17Threats and blackmail do not a relationship make, Chief Brennan.
06:22I agree.
06:22I think our relationship has become needlessly antagonistic.
06:28Well, I think the aforementioned threats and blackmail had something to do with it.
06:34Look, I'm just doing my job.
06:36Part of my job is to find Valentin.
06:38But I understand your loyalty to Charlotte, so I'm not going to pressure you to get information out of her
06:45anymore.
06:46Right.
06:48And the traffic cam footage of Willow?
06:52Never needs to see the light of day.
06:55Well, that's quite magnanimous of you, Chief Brennan.
07:00What's the catch?
07:02Last I heard, the PCPD was treating Jordan's crash as a single vehicle accident, meaning there was no other car
07:10involved.
07:10I mean, you told me yourself you didn't think that it was the other driver's fault, right?
07:16It wasn't.
07:17Jordan got distracted, and she crossed into the path of an oncoming car.
07:22She swerved to avoid a collision, went off the road, and hit an embankment.
07:27But you think that that other driver was Dr. Isaiah Gannon?
07:31There's physical evidence that suggests just that.
07:35But there would need to be a full investigation.
07:38Yes, yes, of course.
07:41But if it was Gannon, why did he just keep going?
07:45If he'd have stopped, we could have called an ambulance.
07:48We could have got Jordan out of that car earlier and further away from the car before it exploded.
07:53Jordan could have been treated so much sooner.
07:56Don't you think it's possible the other driver didn't even know there was an accident?
08:01Maybe.
08:02Maybe not.
08:04But the only way we'll know for sure is to find him.
08:11Curtis, do you hold the other driver responsible for Jordan's injuries?
08:18What happened?
08:19What's going on with Rocco?
08:21He told Britt.
08:22He told her everything he told her.
08:24That he shot Colum.
08:25He told her that I took him here.
08:27That you and I told him to keep quiet.
08:29Great.
08:30Britt knows who is she threatening to tell.
08:32No, nobody.
08:33No, Britt wants to protect Rocco.
08:35Right, until she needs leverage.
08:37And then she will sacrifice Rocco in a heartbeat to save her own skin.
08:40I get that you hate my sister, but Britt loves Rocco.
08:42Britt is not capable of lying.
08:45Stop it.
08:45No, Britt loves Rocco.
08:48Okay, Rocco told her she came straight to me.
08:52Why would he do that?
08:54Because she was there at the pier that night.
08:57Because he feels some kind of a connection to her.
08:59I don't know.
09:00It doesn't matter why he told her.
09:02He told her.
09:03Okay, besides Britt is not the problem.
09:05Rocco is.
09:08The driver wasn't responsible for the accident.
09:10What we don't know is why they didn't stop.
09:14What kind of person drives away from an accident?
09:17Were they hiding something?
09:19What were they thinking?
09:20I do know that Jordan and I deserve some information.
09:25Yes, and I certainly understand why you would feel that way.
09:28But, well, I think we both know that moral responsibility doesn't always translate into legal accountability.
09:35True, but driving away from the scene of an accident is a crime.
09:40Yes, it is.
09:41If the driver was aware that there had been an accident.
09:46And if it were actually Isaiah driving.
09:50Well, then that complicates things between me and Portia.
09:54Which is the last thing I want to do because we're finally in a good place.
09:58Okay, good.
09:58Well, then don't jeopardize that.
10:00Well, Jordan and I almost died.
10:02Listen, the crash was an accident, but driving away was a choice.
10:06So if it was Isaiah, then I want him held responsible.
10:11Yeah.
10:13Curtis, do you really believe that it was Isaiah driving that car?
10:17Or do you think maybe you just wanted to be Isaiah?
10:23Well, now I know why I haven't heard from you and Chase about that adoption process we discussed.
10:29We didn't expect to have Phoebe for this long.
10:32And the PCPD has been looking for her family, but so far they've come up with nothing.
10:37It's like she's all alone in the world.
10:40Well, she's very lucky to have you back.
10:42We're the lucky ones.
10:45Alexis, I knew we'd fall in love with her, but we also knew we'd have to give her to her
10:49family.
10:52But if there is no family, it changes things.
10:57Alexis, how long before Phoebe is officially declared an award in the state and available for adoption?
11:05I'm sorry, I wasn't sure what you meant at first.
11:09And I'm sorry if you were alarmed by Drew's little S.O.S.
11:14He does it a lot.
11:16What does he want help with?
11:18To be his old self.
11:24To not be in the state he's in.
11:28It's his way of expressing his anger and frustration about being locked in, which is unimaginable.
11:36It ain't completely understandable.
11:37Every time I see him, my heart breaks all over again.
11:40Yeah, of course it does.
11:43And if he could communicate better.
11:46You know there are plenty of eye-tracking devices that translate eye movements into words.
11:52I know, I've seen some of them in action.
11:54Well, great.
11:54Then you know what a huge difference one could make in Drew's quality of life.
11:59Well, you could get your husband back.
12:03There is no catch.
12:05That traffic cam footage stays buried.
12:09I guess this means you finally realized that I was right.
12:13About?
12:13Carly.
12:15That she would kick you to the curb when she found out that you withheld that footage of Willow
12:19and that Michael take the blame in the public eye for shooting Drew.
12:23Well, let's just say I didn't see the need to rock the boat.
12:28Right.
12:30That said...
12:31Here we go.
12:34If you do begin to realize that Charlotte will never be truly safe while Valentin is on the run,
12:40and if she happens to confide in you,
12:44I would appreciate anything you wanted to pass along.
12:48You want me to give you up to Jack?
12:50Not exactly.
12:51I want you to feed him information on me.
12:53You're the only information that I want him to have.
12:55You're setting him up.
12:56Is that a problem?
12:58Oh, God, no.
13:01You know what?
13:02The less animosity between us, the better.
13:06Let's just call it done.
13:09And walk away.
13:11Done.
13:15And just so you know,
13:18if you did give me any information,
13:21I'd make sure no one knew it came from you.
13:28Jacinda, Charlotte,
13:29you two have a good afternoon.
13:30You two, Chief Brennan.
13:41Why were you so rude to Brennan?
13:43Because he deserves a lot worse.
13:45I mean, I'm not just going to act like everything's okay
13:47when he's the reason my dad's a fugitive.
13:50I mean, he is so smug.
13:52He's big-time law enforcement.
13:54Comes with the territory.
13:55Yeah, well, he can be as cocky as he wants.
13:57He's not going to find my dad.
13:59Not in a million years.
14:02Carly is not alone just because Jason's gone.
14:05She's got us, right?
14:07Mm-hmm.
14:09We're not really speaking right now.
14:11They got in a huge fight.
14:14And I said some things I regret.
14:17Well, usually it's your mom
14:20who says things that everybody regrets.
14:22So this is progress.
14:24I don't think so.
14:26But nice try.
14:27This will pass.
14:28This is what our family does.
14:29We get in huge knockdown drag outs
14:31and then we nick up.
14:33Yeah.
14:34Yeah, you're right.
14:36But in the meantime,
14:37I'll keep an eye on your mom for you.
14:39And if it helps,
14:40I just did have dinner with her.
14:42How was that?
14:45Well, I got to say,
14:47well, I got to say,
14:48at the moment,
14:49you might be right to question her choices.
14:54I was talking to Willow in her office
14:56when Chase walks in with a bouquet of flowers.
14:59That's when it hit me.
15:01Now, Chase is convinced that I shot Drew
15:03and tried to frame Will.
15:04He's completely blind to her manipulations.
15:07Where are you going with this?
15:09Chase doesn't see Will for who she really is.
15:11Yeah, he still sees her as the woman he married,
15:14the woman he fell in love with.
15:16You think he's still in love with her?
15:17Well, we don't put it all on the line
15:19for just a friend,
15:20certainly not an ex-wife.
15:21Well, I don't know about that.
15:23Okay, well, look,
15:23you and Jason,
15:24you guys are different,
15:25but Chase,
15:26he's supposedly happily married
15:27and trying to start a family.
15:28Meanwhile,
15:28he's doing all this for another woman.
15:30You think they're having an affair?
15:32Not yet.
15:34But all the raw materials are there for one.
15:36That just needs a little fuel.
15:40And you want to pour the gasoline?
15:43All right, let's say it happens.
15:45What do you get out of it?
15:48I would wreck Willow more than I ever could.
15:50I think about a congresswoman
15:52cheating on her disdainful spouse
15:54with the cop who broke all the rules
15:55to get her acquitted.
15:56It would be a massive scandal.
15:58People might actually start to believe
16:00that she shot Drew
16:00after all the governor
16:01would remove her from her seat.
16:03And when she's out of that position,
16:04all of my advantages
16:05will work for me again.
16:09Wow.
16:11Okay.
16:13It can work.
16:16But you know,
16:16it would destroy
16:17Brooklyn's marriage and life.
16:21You really want to do that
16:22to your cousin?
16:24Of course,
16:25I don't want to hurt Brooklyn.
16:26I love her.
16:28Then how can you push
16:29Chase and Willow together?
16:30Look, I know better than anyone
16:32the pain of public infidelity, okay?
16:34I would never want
16:34Brooklyn to feel that.
16:36And yet I don't hear you
16:37talking yourself out of it.
16:38Because as awful as that was,
16:40I'm better off now.
16:41Because I know the truth.
16:43Yeah, I thought that
16:44Willow loved me,
16:44but I didn't know
16:45who she really was.
16:46Just like Brooklyn
16:46doesn't really know who Chase is.
16:49And you do.
16:51I see the guy
16:51for who he is.
16:53And I'm a man
16:53thoroughly convinced
16:55of his own
16:55moral superiority.
16:56Now, I wouldn't be
16:57forcing Chase
16:58to cheat on Brooklyn.
16:59I will simply
17:02construct circumstances
17:02that are favorable
17:04to an affair.
17:04And if he happens
17:05to wind up in
17:06Willow's bed,
17:06well, that's on him.
17:09Why would Willow
17:10risk an affair?
17:11Because Willow's
17:12essentially alone
17:13in the world right now.
17:15And Willow doesn't do
17:16Willow.
17:17She needs someone
17:18with her.
17:19Someone to reinforce
17:20her belief in herself.
17:23Will Chase could do that.
17:24He already is.
17:26And Willow desperately
17:27wants to be the person
17:28that Chase thinks she is.
17:31I appreciate this
17:32so much, Elizabeth,
17:33but I've already
17:34looked into
17:34eye-tracking devices
17:35a couple of times.
17:36But my concern
17:38is that it would
17:39send Drew
17:40the wrong message.
17:42How?
17:44Because I know Drew.
17:45his goal is
17:46100% recovery,
17:48nothing less.
17:49And an eye-tracking device,
17:51he would take that
17:52as me not believing in him.
17:54That I have accepted,
17:55maybe even decided,
17:57that his
17:58being unable to speak
17:59is permanent.
18:01And that would
18:02absolutely crush
18:03his spirit.
18:03I cannot do that to him.
18:05He's really such
18:06a proud man.
18:10Okay.
18:11Well, I'm glad
18:13you thought about it.
18:14I really have.
18:17I know how overwhelming
18:18it must be
18:19to care for
18:20Drew and Scout,
18:22and I know
18:22it's gotta be
18:23daunting,
18:24the thought of
18:25just adding on
18:26one more thing
18:27to his therapy.
18:28He was trying so hard
18:30to communicate with me.
18:31And I assume
18:32he's only doing
18:33the same with you.
18:34Imagine how much
18:35better both of your lives
18:37would be
18:37if Drew could actually
18:39talk to you.
18:42have you and
18:43Chase discussed
18:44adopting Phoebe?
18:45Not yet.
18:47I think we're both
18:48afraid to be
18:48the first one
18:49to say it out loud.
18:50We were braced
18:50to be temporary parents.
18:52Phoebe wanted her
18:53to be back
18:54with her family.
18:55But that hasn't happened.
18:57The thought of
18:57handing her over
18:58to complete strangers,
18:59no matter how wonderful
19:00or well-deserving
19:01they may be,
19:02it just,
19:02it feels wrong.
19:04Phoebe lost her mom.
19:05And if she loses me
19:07and Chase too,
19:07she'll be abandoned
19:08all over again.
19:09And to have to put her
19:10back into the system,
19:13we break our hearts.
19:15We already love her.
19:18I can tell.
19:21We're glad that
19:23we might be exactly
19:24what we may have to do.
19:29Good appearance
19:29from that photo shoot
19:30in Algiers.
19:33Charlotte.
19:38I owe you
19:39an apology.
19:41For what?
19:43For not being
19:44a very good friend
19:46to you.
19:47What do you mean?
19:50Charlotte,
19:51I know
19:51I let you down
19:52and I am so sorry.
19:54And I promise
19:55to do better.
19:57It's all right.
19:58I never really expected
20:00anything from you anyway.
20:02Charlotte,
20:02I mean,
20:03I was never
20:04really your daughter.
20:13Did you just say
20:15that my son
20:16is a problem?
20:17I am just saying
20:18that Rocco
20:19is struggling,
20:20okay?
20:20He's traumatized,
20:21he's guilt-ridden
20:22over shooting Cullen
20:22and letting Jason
20:23take the blame.
20:24Of course he is.
20:25He's a teenage boy
20:27who shot someone.
20:28And he wouldn't have
20:29been in that situation
20:30to begin with
20:31if he hadn't been
20:31following Britt.
20:32I get that.
20:33And as understandable
20:34as Rocco's feelings
20:35on the matter are,
20:36if it gets out
20:36that he's the one
20:37that shot Cullen,
20:38everything that we have
20:39done to protect him
20:40goes down the drain.
20:41Lulu,
20:42it's only a matter of time
20:44before he tells Dante
20:45and then where will we be?
20:48I'll talk to Rocco
20:49and I will remind him
20:50how important it is
20:51to stay quiet.
20:52You've already done that.
20:52I've already done that.
20:53Britt's already done that.
20:54It's not working.
20:55Okay, fine.
20:56Since you seem
20:57to have all the answers,
20:58what do we do?
20:59We have to send him away
21:02for his own good.
21:04Is there something
21:05going on with my mom
21:06I don't know about?
21:07I should not
21:08have said anything.
21:09Well, you did.
21:11So, Spill,
21:13seriously,
21:13if she's gone rogue
21:15trying to keep her mind
21:16off of Jason
21:17or worse,
21:18she's trying to rescue him
21:20from a WSB black site,
21:22then I need to know.
21:23She is not doing anything
21:24dangerous or illegal
21:26or anything.
21:27So, you just,
21:28you don't need to worry.
21:29Oh, I know I don't have to worry
21:31because you're going to tell me
21:32everything you know.
21:33I'm not leaving your side
21:35until you do.
21:36And unlike you,
21:36I've got all day.
21:37You know,
21:38sometimes you are too much
21:39like your mom.
21:41Fine.
21:46Carly is cheating on Brackett.
21:49I believe that we're
21:50Phoebe's foster parents.
21:52Well, it doesn't hurt.
21:56But this is a really
21:57complicated legal situation
21:59because when you and Chase
22:00decided to take Phoebe in,
22:03you did it with the understanding
22:04that it was just temporary.
22:06Since there are thousands
22:08of families that have
22:10already registered
22:11and are waiting for a baby,
22:13I mean, you can't just
22:13cut the line, as it were.
22:15But what about
22:15what's best for Phoebe?
22:16Well, that isn't for you
22:17you and I to decide.
22:20But if you and Chase
22:21really want to adapt Phoebe,
22:23the sooner you make it official,
22:25the better.
22:29You think I suspect Isaiah
22:30because of his relationship
22:31with Portia?
22:34Look, you're accusing
22:35a man who's a doctor.
22:37He took an oath
22:37to do no harm.
22:40But you're accusing him
22:41of knowingly
22:43leaving the scene
22:44of an accident
22:45and then
22:46keeping quiet about it all
22:48because
22:48he's got something to hide.
22:53Okay, I can see
22:54how that looks.
22:55Yeah.
22:56Look, this is the man
22:57who Portia
22:58cheated on you with
23:00and that forced you
23:01into a period of uncertainty
23:02about the paternity
23:04of the baby
23:05that your wife is carrying.
23:06Of course,
23:08there's got to be
23:09a part of you
23:10that wants to punish Isaiah.
23:13Yeah, I thought about that,
23:15but no.
23:16And believe me,
23:17it would be a lot easier
23:18if Isaiah weren't
23:19the other driver.
23:21Portia's planning
23:21a future with that guy.
23:23And your future
23:25is going to be
23:26entwined with Portia's zone.
23:28How do you feel
23:29about Isaiah
23:30being a part of that?
23:34I don't love it,
23:35but I know
23:36I've got to accept it.
23:37And I know
23:38that Isaiah's going to be
23:39a part of my baby's life,
23:41whether I like it or not.
23:43But
23:44if he was the one
23:45who left Jordan and me
23:47on the side of the road,
23:48I think Portia needs to know
23:49what kind of man he is.
23:51And I know
23:52she's not going to
23:52thank me for being
23:53the one to point it out.
23:56Then maybe
23:57you shouldn't be
23:58the one to prove it.
24:02Why don't we take a break?
24:03Maybe grab a latte?
24:05Huh?
24:06Charlotte, are you okay?
24:08Did something happen with Nina?
24:10No, it's
24:10just
24:12I used to think
24:13Nina loved me.
24:14You know?
24:15And now I can't trust her
24:17and neither can my dad.
24:21Congresswoman?
24:22Is my mother in?
24:24For you,
24:24always.
24:28Hello!
24:29What a pleasant surprise!
24:31Tell me that Elizabeth
24:32was worried about Drew.
24:34Elizabeth
24:35mentioned that Drew
24:36was blinking in SOS,
24:37but I thought
24:38I played it off.
24:38Well, not well enough
24:39because now she's pushing me
24:40to get Drew an eye-tracking device
24:42so that he can communicate.
24:44You said no, right?
24:46Because the second
24:47Drew can tell people
24:48what's going on,
24:50it's all over.
24:53My mom is seeing
24:54someone else.
24:56Who?
24:57And for how long?
24:59Does Brennan know?
25:00She admitted
25:01that she's involved
25:02with another man.
25:03I don't know who it is.
25:04She didn't give me
25:04any details,
25:05which kind of makes me
25:06worried because
25:06it makes me think
25:07that I might know
25:08the person
25:08and I might not like them.
25:10Are you aiding
25:11and abetting
25:12a fugitive?
25:14That's right.
25:16I gotta say,
25:17from the way she was acting,
25:18I was worried
25:18that she was back
25:19with Sunny again.
25:21It's not Sunny.
25:22Do you know who it is?
25:23No.
25:25This is the first
25:26I'm hearing of this.
25:28But it's not Sunny.
25:30She's past that.
25:31Well, if you're sure,
25:33I'm like an exhale.
25:35And as for Brennan knowing,
25:37I don't think so,
25:39given how hard
25:39she's been working
25:40to keep it a secret.
25:41But I suppose
25:42this is none of our business,
25:44so please don't say
25:45anything to Carly.
25:46If she finds out
25:46that I told you she will...
25:48I'm not gonna say anything.
25:51I'm sorry.
25:52I have to go.
25:54Love you.
25:55Love you too.
26:01We have to get Rocco
26:02out of poor Charles.
26:04It's almost summers
26:05and they're like a baseball camp
26:06or something.
26:06He can go to.
26:07Absolutely not.
26:08Why not?
26:08When it wouldn't be good for him
26:10to get out of poor Charles,
26:11the city where everything happened.
26:13And where everyone
26:14who cares about him is.
26:15Most of whom
26:16he can't even be honest with.
26:17He's already isolating himself.
26:19There's even more reason
26:20that he needs to be
26:20like his body.
26:21Lulu,
26:22you think that you can
26:23contain this,
26:23but you can't.
26:24And Rocco is not built
26:25to hold this secret.
26:26We have to get him out.
26:29I cannot believe
26:30that you are talking
26:31about Rocco
26:32like he is some kind
26:33of burden to unload.
26:35I am just trying
26:36to get through to you,
26:37okay?
26:37It will be infinitely better
26:39for everyone involved,
26:40Rocco included,
26:41if he's not here.
26:42And you need to start
26:43thinking about
26:44what your son needs
26:45and not just what you want.
26:48Who the hell
26:49do you think you are
26:50telling me what's best
26:51for my child?
26:52He's not a little kid.
26:53But he is my kid
26:54and he will always
26:55be my kid
26:56and I am not
26:56abandoning him
26:57when he needs me most.
27:08Hey, Lulu,
27:10if this is a bad time,
27:12it is.
27:13No.
27:15Come on in.
27:23Isaiah here
27:24is a true friend
27:26who treated Rocco's hand.
27:28No questions asked.
27:29In fact,
27:31Rocco is the reason
27:31I'm here.
27:34That's from
27:34the back of my house.
27:36Q.
27:37I didn't realize
27:37you were involved
27:38in whatever trouble
27:39Rocco's in.
27:40What do you know about him?
27:42Only that Rocco
27:42had his hand.
27:43Like Lulu said,
27:45no questions asked.
27:50Well, that settles it then.
27:52I will talk to Chase tonight.
27:55All right.
27:55Well, when you talk to him,
27:57you have to have
27:57a real honest conversation
27:59about what you both want.
28:01That won't be a problem.
28:03I know you want a baby,
28:04but when we talked,
28:05you said you wanted
28:06a private adoption.
28:07And that is very different
28:08than a state adoption.
28:09How?
28:09Exactly.
28:10I mean, obviously,
28:11they're different, but...
28:12Well, private adoption
28:13is more personal.
28:14The couples have more control
28:17rather than having to fight
28:18the state child welfare system,
28:20and that's a lot more personal.
28:22But we'll have to go to court.
28:24Not only that,
28:24you're going to have
28:25to convince a court
28:26to not only ignore
28:27its own rules,
28:28but ignore the families
28:30that are waiting
28:30in good faith for a baby
28:32because you're
28:33what's best for people.
28:36Pressure.
28:38I will help you
28:39the best that I can,
28:41but it's going to be
28:42a good, hard fight,
28:43and you and Chase
28:44need to be up for it.
28:46I have to talk to Chase,
28:48but I already know
28:49in my heart
28:50what he'll say.
28:52We don't just want
28:53a baby,
28:53we want this baby.
28:56Phoebe belongs with us.
28:59What is that?
29:00Hey.
29:01I heard that Willow was here?
29:03Yes, I asked her to stop by.
29:05I think we've already
29:06seen each other,
29:06since she's become
29:07Congresswoman.
29:08And she is juggling a lot,
29:10somehow.
29:11I don't know about that.
29:13Not successfully, anyway.
29:15She's managed to
29:16isolate herself
29:17in that house
29:18with Drew and Scout,
29:20from what it seems like.
29:23Does she have anyone
29:24she can really talk to?
29:26I mean, besides you
29:27and the rare occasion.
29:28I think Nina's
29:29the only other adult.
29:32You seem worried.
29:33Well, not worried,
29:35necessarily.
29:36But I do think
29:37Willow's in over her head.
29:40You don't like Willow,
29:41do you?
29:43Not even one bit.
29:46Because of what she did
29:47to Michael?
29:49Well, I certainly hate
29:51the way Willow's
29:52treated Michael.
29:52And I hate how she
29:53always plays the victim.
29:55She's the one who cheated.
29:57If she hadn't,
29:58you and Michael
29:59might not be together.
30:00Good point.
30:02Still, there's nothing worse
30:03than someone who pretends
30:04to care about you,
30:05who turns out to be
30:06someone you can't trust.
30:08I heard that.
30:10Mother and daughter
30:11are alike that way.
30:12I mean,
30:13from what you said,
30:14it sounds like Nina
30:15might have done the same thing
30:16to you and your dad.
30:18Cool.
30:19I never thought Nina
30:21would turn against
30:22my father,
30:23but no.
30:29That was close.
30:30Michael, I discovered you.
30:32I'd have had to kill him.
30:34Don't joke about that.
30:35At least I know I'm joking.
30:37Look,
30:37Michael wouldn't have
30:38said anything,
30:38but I don't want him
30:39involved in this.
30:40And him just showing up
30:41like that improves.
30:42You can't keep hiding out here.
30:44You're right.
30:45Brennan's gone from
30:46target to distraction.
30:47We need to shift our focus
30:48to call him and Sidwell.
30:49How?
30:50I told you,
30:51I want to use Nina
30:52to bake Jack
30:53back into an ambush.
30:55But you're not going
30:56to kill Jack,
30:57right?
30:58It'll be to see you,
31:00but we're kind of
31:01in the middle
31:01of something right now.
31:02Hey, Charlotte,
31:03do you mind getting me
31:04a copy really quick?
31:05No problem.
31:09Charlotte was just
31:10about to tell me
31:11about Valentin.
31:12See,
31:12well,
31:12that's just the thing.
31:13You don't need
31:13to press her anymore.
31:14In fact,
31:14you don't need
31:15to be involved at all.
31:16Why?
31:16What happened?
31:17I found another way
31:18to get to Willow.
31:20Nina,
31:20it's okay.
31:21It's not like I intended
31:22to keep Drew
31:23in this wheelchair
31:23or my life forever,
31:25but it does mean
31:26that I have to find
31:26something to use
31:27against him sooner
31:28so that he can expose
31:30us when he miraculously
31:31recovers.
31:34I know she's got
31:35a lot going on,
31:36but I wasn't expecting
31:37Willow to push back
31:38on getting Drew
31:38through an eye-tracking device.
31:40But it's a little surprising.
31:42Yeah,
31:42maybe she'll think
31:43about it more
31:43and come around.
31:45It is important
31:46for Drew
31:46to be able
31:47to communicate
31:47beyond just yes and no.
31:50Or,
31:52maybe Willow
31:52just doesn't want
31:53to hear what Drew
31:54has to say.
31:56I just want to be clear,
31:58you can't discuss
31:59Bronco's injury
31:59with anyone.
32:00I understand,
32:01Dr. Patient Confidentiality.
32:03Of course you do.
32:05And I appreciate your help.
32:07My friend called
32:08and asked me
32:09to treat her son.
32:10And I came.
32:11No questions asked.
32:12I don't know
32:13what happened to Rocco
32:14and I don't want to.
32:15But rest assured
32:16that as a doctor,
32:17I can't disclose
32:18that I came here
32:19to anyone that night.
32:23So,
32:24where does the investigation
32:25stand now?
32:27I asked,
32:28um,
32:29ADA Turner
32:29to look into
32:30Isaiah Cannon.
32:31She said,
32:32she will.
32:33Now you can stay
32:34out of it
32:35and let the police
32:36do their job
32:37because if you
32:39investigate Isaiah,
32:40I'm sure that
32:41Portia will see
32:42that as personal
32:43animosity.
32:44That's a good point,
32:46but Laura,
32:46you know me
32:47and you know
32:47I'm not very good
32:48at waiting around.
32:49Okay,
32:50so,
32:52put your attention
32:53where it is needed
32:54most on Jordan,
32:57helping her
32:57get through this time.
33:00I'll certainly
33:00do my best.
33:01Good.
33:02and you know
33:03that I'm
33:04here for you
33:05in the meantime
33:06if you need
33:06anything.
33:07I mean,
33:07anything.
33:09I know that.
33:11Okay.
33:12Anytime.
33:14Listen,
33:15try to have
33:16a little bit
33:17of faith,
33:17okay?
33:18Whoever that
33:19driver was,
33:20the police
33:21will find them
33:22and bring them
33:23to justice.
33:26If you and Jace
33:27really want to adopt
33:28Phoebe,
33:28I will help you,
33:29but it's not
33:30going to be easy.
33:31Nothing worthwhile
33:32ever is.
33:34Okay,
33:34so,
33:35what are the steps
33:36that we have to take
33:37for a chance
33:38to adopt
33:38Phoebe officially?
33:39Well,
33:40first I recommend
33:41a private search
33:42for Phoebe's family
33:43because we just
33:44want to be sure.
33:45Okay,
33:45yeah,
33:45we could do that.
33:46And while that's
33:47going on,
33:47we're going to
33:47sit down and talk
33:48because the state
33:50is going to do
33:50an extensive
33:51background check
33:52on you both.
33:53And we want
33:54to be prepared.
33:55Do you think
33:56we'll have a problem?
33:58Nobody's life
33:59is spotless.
34:00We just have
34:01to anticipate
34:01what the state
34:02is going to dig
34:03up on you
34:03and have an
34:05explanation.
34:07In other words,
34:08you and Jace
34:09need to be ready
34:09to answer
34:10for everything
34:11that you've ever done.
34:15Would it be so bad
34:16if I did kill Jack?
34:18Yes.
34:19Why?
34:19Because you love him still.
34:20Oh my God,
34:21will you stop
34:21with this whole
34:22jealousy thing?
34:23No,
34:23I don't love Jack.
34:26If you killed Jack,
34:27the WSB
34:28would be all over you.
34:29They wouldn't
34:29stop looking for you.
34:31So one way
34:31or another,
34:32you would have
34:32to disappear again.
34:34And I've already
34:34lost Jason.
34:35I can't...
34:37What?
34:39We stick to the plan.
34:42We exonerate you
34:44and we leave Jack
34:44holding the bag.
34:45Okay?
34:47Then would we
34:48ambush Jack
34:48we need something
34:49he fears more
34:50than either of us.
35:00What are you doing here?
35:02My mom owns this hotel.
35:04I asked the master
35:05of asking you to get in.
35:06Need to talk to you.
35:08How many times
35:10do I have to tell you
35:11to lay low?
35:12If Colin finds out
35:13your WSB,
35:13you're dead.
35:14So literally
35:14for your own survival,
35:16you have to stay away
35:17from me.
35:18You're only concerned
35:19with my survival
35:20because you're in a
35:21relationship with my mother.
35:22And if something
35:23happens to me,
35:24she'll leave you.
35:25That's not true.
35:26Well,
35:27you're too late.
35:28You are
35:29in Gloucester.
