00:10Oh, Nicholas.
00:12Oh, I'm so happy to have you back in one piece.
00:16I don't think I slept through the night the whole time you were gone.
00:19It's great to see you too.
00:21Although I wish we were doing this at the ranch, not here.
00:24Well, I thought we could have lunch.
00:28Are you hungry?
00:30Don't try and change the subject.
00:36I'm sure you can imagine my surprise.
00:38I show up to the ranch to see you and Dad, and Dad tells me you moved out.
00:45What else did he say?
00:47Not much.
00:49I just know that before I took off for Vegas, you know, you were pretty upset with him.
00:54I'm assuming that might have something to do with this.
00:59Look, I don't want to ruin this homecoming by getting into specifics, but I will tell you that your father
01:07and I had the worst fight we have ever had, and I don't know if there's any coming back from
01:12it.
01:13Well, come on.
01:15You and Dad have been in a million fights.
01:17You always work it out.
01:20This time feels different.
01:23Okay, well, then I'm going to talk to Dad.
01:26Make sure you two sit down and make this right.
01:29Honey, it won't do any good.
01:31Making things right between your father and me is not your job.
01:35You have enough on your plate as it is.
01:38Yeah, you have enough half of it.
01:41Were you and Adam able to find Matt Clark and end this nightmare?
01:46Matt is supposedly dead.
01:49Dead is good.
01:51How did he die?
01:54Sienna claims to have killed him.
01:57Thank you, Sienna.
01:59Wait a minute.
02:00What do you mean she claims to?
02:01Did she or didn't she?
02:03I don't know.
02:04Well, I don't know.
02:05Something happened with Sienna and Matt.
02:08It's really shaking Sienna, but we can't get any details out of her.
02:12So right now, I don't know who or what to believe.
02:18I am sorry that we ran off like that.
02:21No, stop apologizing.
02:23Hey, you've been through hell.
02:24I don't blame you for not wanting to talk about that monster.
02:27But I know that your mom and dad want assurance that Matt is really dead.
02:32Right now, the number one priority is to make sure that you're okay, Ryan.
02:36Walking out.
02:39Talking to two.
02:43Thank you for coming after me.
02:46Putting your arms around me and just holding me.
02:50It's just what I needed.
02:55You always have a way of making me feel safe.
03:01I think that is why I was able to finally be honest about what happened.
03:09I just hate that you had to go through all of that.
03:13I just wish I had been there for you.
03:16I am so glad that you weren't.
03:24Oh, wait.
03:25No, no, no.
03:26You don't have to leave.
03:28Oh, well, I don't want to interrupt.
03:31You're not.
03:32And Sharon, I am so sorry that I flipped out before.
03:38I shouldn't have pushed.
03:40You had what I'm sure was a very intense encounter with Matt.
03:45It's the most scared I've ever been in my life.
03:47I think it's time to tell Mom what you told me about exactly what happened to Matt.
03:54I don't know.
04:24I don't know.
04:26I don't know.
04:27I don't know.
04:31I don't know.
04:36I don't know.
04:38I don't know.
04:40I don't know.
04:42I don't know.
04:42I don't know.
04:43I don't know.
04:44I don't know.
04:44I don't know.
04:46I don't know.
04:47I don't know.
04:48I don't know.
04:50I don't know.
04:51I don't know.
04:51I don't know.
04:52I don't know.
04:53I don't know.
05:13you know what i knew i should have given security a list of who they shouldn't let up
05:18to what do i owe this visit i believe you know well it's one of two things either you feel
05:27like you
05:27need a police officer to protect yourself against me or victor has made good on his threats
05:36i've reviewed the evidence what evidence it's fate well that remains to be seen christine
05:43i felt like we had gotten past this i mean i gave a heartfelt speech at your nuptials with danny
05:50how i thought we could bury the hatchet i was genuine i rose above and we both appreciated
06:00that very much yeah the hell you did because despite my best efforts to be civil you're still
06:08here trying to intimidate me with this bogus evidence victor has given this isn't personal
06:14phyllis the hell it isn't you took five minutes in your new position to use it as a power move
06:22to intimidate me is probably the sole reason you took this position as da i'm not here to
06:29intimidate you i'm here to arrest you
06:36you have the right to remain silent oh seriously seriously can and will be used against you in a
06:40court of law you have the right to an attorney if you cannot afford an attorney one will be appointed
06:45for you do you understand the rights i've just read to you
06:52um if you think you're gonna cuff me and lead me out of here on a perp walk you better
06:59have backup
07:00i'm hoping it won't be necessary i'm hoping miss summers will come along with us quietly or at least
07:05come along so is this your first case is da cricket is it this is a big mistake because when
07:12i prove
07:13that all of victor's fake evidence to get his company back has been fabricated and made up
07:21this is going to turn your glee into humiliation i don't get pleasure in this i know arresting you
07:31will hurt daniel and in turn my husband i also know that a lot of people including you are going
07:37to
07:37assume that i'm doing this because we've been pretty public with our mutual i don't assume
07:42i know well you'd be wrong because i thought long and hard about my decision to take this action
07:50oh really you've been a da for what what what five minutes i guess uh thinking long and hard
07:57is what it is for your tiny personal feelings aside but in the end i couldn't ignore the facts
08:05by stealing newman enterprises out from under victor and his family you have committed a crime
08:12and for that you must be held accountable
08:18i can certainly understand you're not trusting that matt is dead i mean you watched him die with
08:26your own eyes years ago and even that was a lie which is why until i hear exactly how sienna
08:32ended his
08:33life or a body is found i'm going to be sleeping with one eye open well at least you'll be
08:38sleeping
08:39in genoa city i hated that you went to las vegas to find him every time my phone rang i
08:45was filled
08:46with dread and even before you left there was something about the way you were acting that just seemed
08:54darker darker at this time around
09:01well there's a reason for that and um
09:05it wasn't just matt clark
09:08what do you mean
09:11nicholas what is it
09:18there's something i gotta tell you and uh i've been dreading doing it because
09:28i hate disappointing you but honestly i'm gonna need your support more than anyone's going forward
09:36support for what
09:39i need you to promise me that you're not gonna get too upset
09:43darling please just tell me whatever it is i can handle it
09:53okay um it started after my accident
09:58my leg
10:00it was just unbearable i've never experienced anything like that
10:04i can only imagine
10:08and i was going through my prescription meds pretty quickly
10:13and then the doc wouldn't give me any more refills
10:18and i wasn't sure how i was supposed to function mom so i um
10:30i started messing with opioids
10:33oh nicholas
10:37yeah i was pretty much hooked on him the whole time i was biggest with that
10:43um how hooked are we talking here
10:48enough for adam to pick up on it
10:51and matt
10:53he took advantage of my addiction
10:55he uh he fed me some bad fentanyl
10:58oh my god
10:59oh my god honey you could have died
11:02i know and i almost did i i ended up in the hospital
11:06why didn't anybody call me
11:08i would have flown out to be with you
11:11i know
11:11i know
11:12i just i didn't want you to see me like that
11:16honey i love you so much
11:19to think of you suffering like that
11:23and i'm almost dying
11:25i know
11:26look at me
11:28i'm okay
11:30i'm a lot better
11:33and sharon she hooked me up with the treatment center
11:36they're gonna give me all the tools i need to make sure this doesn't happen again
11:40you know
11:42your father and i
11:43both thought something
11:45was off
11:49god how did i not see the signs i mean
11:52after everything i've been through with my addiction
11:55i'm sorry honey
11:57maybe because you never expected something like this to happen
12:01i wanted to believe that it happened to your own son
12:06sienna started remembering more about what happened
12:10well sometimes after a traumatic incident
12:13it can take a while before all the pieces fall together
12:22once i realized that um
12:25matt wasn't buying my appeal
12:28that he had already set
12:30the explosion in motion
12:32i knew that all bets were off
12:35he told me we needed to leave the area
12:38and he told me that no
12:45he told me that you
12:46were already dead and that i missed my chance to save you
12:51wasn't true
12:53but it felt like it was
12:54they didn't know
12:55matt gets such delight
12:57out of tormenting people
13:00i was so angry
13:04a part of me just wanted to stay
13:06with him so i could hurt him
13:07the way that he hurt noah and all of you
13:09and then there was this other part of me
13:11that
13:13the part of me that was terrified of him
13:16and that just
13:18took over
13:19and i just wanted to get away
13:22and jumped out of the car
13:25and
13:27i was just hoping he'd drive off
13:29i was hoping he'd leave me there
13:30and then
13:34then i heard his footsteps
13:37and his panting breath
13:41and he was coming after me
13:44and
13:45we were in the middle of nowhere
13:47i didn't know
13:48i didn't know where we were
13:49i didn't know if i was gonna make it out alive
13:51it's okay
13:51it's okay
13:52you're safe now
13:54i can't hurt you anymore
13:55okay
13:57not me or anyone else again
14:01you sound pretty sure about that
14:03do i am
14:06because when he came after me
14:08and he chased me down in the desert
14:10and he caught up to me
14:13i fought him with everything i had
14:17and that's when i killed him
14:39i really thought i had it under control
14:43if i could stop
14:44taking pills
14:45you know
14:46because it was temporary
14:47once the pain went away
14:48if i was wrong
14:50anguilars are what started my addiction
14:54the thought of stopping that
14:56was not an option
14:57all i cared about
14:59was getting more
15:03i've really understood that until now
15:07i never wanted you to understand it
15:14i don't
15:15but i do want you to make me
15:17a promise
15:20from this point on
15:22you need to be completely honest with me
15:24that is the only way i can
15:27truly be there for you
15:31i promise
15:34i also want you to know that
15:36you will have slip-ups
15:39and i won't judge you for that
15:42and i don't want you judging yourself
15:45and these stumbles are
15:49easier to face when you meet them halfway
15:53hiding your actions
15:56just leads to more shame
15:58and that leads to more using
16:01it's a vicious cycle
16:06i'm gonna beat this
16:08i will do whatever it takes
16:10you will
16:12you can do anything
16:14once you put our minds to it
16:17and i hate
16:18putting this on you right now
16:19with everything that's going on with dad
16:21darling you're not putting anything on me
16:23i always want you to come to me
16:32let me ask you a question
16:34is jack the reason that you left
16:38is that what your father told you
16:41no
16:44but you know before i went to vegas
16:46i learned that dad had kidnapped jack
16:48which of course was crazy
16:50it was a last-ditch effort to try and save
16:53the company
16:54and then dick filled me in on what happened on the yacht with jack
16:56and now patty williams is back
17:00and now patty williams is back
17:00yeah she says she's been rehabilitated
17:03and i'll move you back for a second
17:06your father has gone to extremes with jack before but this
17:11this was different
17:14desperate
17:15which is not like
17:17victor
17:19it's like
17:22something snapped in his head
17:23that told him
17:24it's perfectly fine to do whatever he feels he needs to do
17:28to get what he wants
17:30no matter who gets hurt
17:32look
17:32i hate it that patty is back too
17:36but do you think this is the best answer
17:38cutting dad off completely
17:39don't tell me you're excusing what he did
17:42no
17:43of course not
17:44i'm just
17:44trying to understand why dad would go to such extremes
17:47we already know
17:49his hatred of jack
17:51i think it's about newman enterprises
17:53the fact that he lost everything that he built in an instant
17:57that doesn't give him the right
17:59to put lives in danger
18:01of course not
18:02but just
18:03can you imagine how desperate dad must have felt
18:06to do these things
18:07i mean that company isn't just a way for him to make a living mom
18:11it is tied up to his whole self-worth because of what it means to him
18:16he built an empire for this family
18:22built it for you mom
18:25and at this stage of his life if you can understand where he's coming from then maybe you could find
18:31it
18:31you know easier to forgive him
18:36honey i know how much
18:38you love and admire your father
18:41i love him too
18:44but i am not ready
18:46to forgive him for what he did
18:50i don't know if i ever will be
18:54you said that you and matt fought
18:57when he caught up to you
19:02yeah it didn't last long
19:04he threw me to the ground
19:06he pinned me
19:08down
19:08he was choking me
19:09i tried um
19:11to
19:12to grab something
19:14anything
19:14to use against him
19:16a fistful of dirt
19:18anything
19:18just to try and stop him
19:20and i felt a rock
19:24and i picked it up
19:27with as much force as i could and i brought it up and i hit him in the head and
19:32then he went down
19:35and i just stared at him
19:39this man that i used to love and that now i needed more than anything
19:45and then i saw him move
19:47no
