00:00We may need to get your lawyers on the phone because you are looking at multiple charges.
00:05First, you spit up all over my favorite shirt.
00:08That's right.
00:09Damage to personal property.
00:11And we also have to consider this apparent lack of remorse.
00:16All I'm saying is it's not going to play well with the judge come sentencing.
00:20Especially because this is not your first offense.
00:23Brooklyn and I have a laundry basket full of other victims that can attest.
00:30On the other hand, you are ridiculously cute.
00:35And what jury could ever convict that little face?
00:47Granny, do you have a second? I need to talk to you about something.
00:50Uh, I'm actually expecting someone. Can I wait?
00:52Uh, no, this won't take long. I just want to talk to you while Chase is down at the boathouse
00:55with the baby.
00:56Uh, whatever residual guilt you have about the accident, you need to rise above it and move on.
01:04You cannot go to the police and tell them about it.
01:07I know, but what do I do if the police come to me?
01:12Come in.
01:15You said you wanted to see me, Mayor Collins?
01:18Yes, ADA Turner. Thank you so much for coming by personally.
01:21Please come in and sit down.
01:23I realize I didn't give you very much warning, did I?
01:27No, it's not a problem.
01:30So, uh, what can I do for you?
01:33Well, uh, actually, I wanted to know where you were with the investigation into Jordan's car accident.
01:41Do you have any leads?
01:43We do.
01:44The PCPD is investigating a potential suspect and we are seeking a warrant for their vehicle.
01:51Far be it for me to interfere here, but, uh, do you think that's wise?
01:59So, what do you say?
02:00Had enough of this place?
02:02Ready to get out of here and go home?
02:04Oh, I have never been more ready for anything.
02:08Of course, I will go over your instructions with Miss Ashford before she leaves.
02:15And I will schedule a follow-up appointment.
02:20You're so welcome.
02:24Absolutely not.
02:25We talked about this.
02:26No more flowers at work.
02:28Oh.
02:29Well, how about I make you a deal?
02:32I will give these flowers to the patient of your choice.
02:36But I have one condition.
02:39Hey, it's me again.
02:42Um, I've been calling you.
02:44I'm at the pier, like I have been every single day since I got back.
02:50Um, but you're not answering the phone.
02:55You're not calling me back.
02:55You're not responding to my texts.
02:57So, uh, please call me back.
03:02Delilah, you need to show up because I can't help you if you don't, okay?
03:14Am I interrupted?
03:16No, sir.
03:17No, there it is.
03:19What do you got for me on Rick?
03:21Plenty.
03:37I just want to make sure that we're on the same page.
03:41So it is my understanding that the suspect that you are looking into is Dr. Isaiah Gannon.
03:46I presume you've spoken with Curtis Ashford.
03:49I have.
03:50I really wish he hadn't have said anything.
03:53I understand.
03:54I really do.
03:55But Curtis and I are very old friends and he needed somebody to talk to.
03:59Somebody he could confide.
04:01And he knew that I wouldn't tell anyone, which I haven't.
04:04But so it's true that you are looking at Dr. Gannon as a suspect.
04:10We are.
04:11Based on what evidence?
04:13That's where it gets dicey.
04:15Yeah.
04:16What does that mean?
04:17Isaiah wasn't on our radar initially.
04:20But then Curtis asked us to look into him.
04:23We analyzed the paint found on the guardrail at the scene and confirmed that it belongs to a black BMW.
04:29Dr. Gannon drives a black BMW SUV.
04:33As do a lot of other people.
04:36That's true.
04:36But so far, we haven't been able to establish Dr. Gannon's whereabouts at the time of the accident.
04:41And we do know he wasn't working at GH that night.
04:44Do you really think that's enough to get a warrant?
04:46The ground's questionable.
04:48It could go either way.
04:49And even if we do get that warrant, there's no telling what we may find.
04:54Dr. Gannon could have been the other driver, but we may never be able to prove it.
05:01I ran into Curtis at the Savoy last night, and he insisted that he knows who's driving the other car.
05:07That the police are closing in on a suspect.
05:10Was he fishing?
05:11Did he look to see how you'd react?
05:14I don't think so.
05:15Well, good.
05:16Then it's not you they're closing in on.
05:17Not yet.
05:19Not ever.
05:21There is nothing tying you to that accident.
05:24Nobody knows it was you on the road that night.
05:26The car has been fixed.
05:27And you didn't turn yourself into the police.
05:30Keep it that way.
05:31Wait.
05:32So someone else is going to get blamed for something that I did?
05:35I cannot let that happen.
05:36You did not cause the accident.
05:37You merely swerved to avoid getting hit.
05:41The other driver is responsible.
05:42The only way the police are going to find you is if you turn yourself in.
05:46I can never do that.
05:48I have a question I'm going to ask you.
05:50What is it?
05:51Do you want to go away with me for the weekend?
05:55Now, I know it's a big step, but before you say no, just hear me out, okay?
05:58I found the best hotel in the Hudson Valley.
06:03It's got every amenity you could possibly imagine.
06:05Okay.
06:05It's got tennis courts.
06:06It's got hiking trails.
06:08It's got a five-star restaurant.
06:09It's got a spa.
06:10It's got an ingram.
06:11I said, okay.
06:11Hey, that means yes.
06:13I would love to go away with you.
06:17I am so looking forward to sleeping in my own bed.
06:21Dr. Caldwell was sure today would be the discharge day, but I don't think I will really be able
06:26to exhale until we are finally home and you've locked the door behind us.
06:30I understand that, but hey, your recovery has been consistent and absolutely everyone is impressed at the progress you're making.
06:39Not everyone.
06:44Look, I know you wish things could move faster and I don't blame you.
06:50You don't think that I sound just a little ungrateful?
06:54I mean, it could have been much worse.
06:58And we're both profoundly grateful that it wasn't.
07:02Right here, right now.
07:04I also know that you're frustrated.
07:06So whatever you're going through, I want to hear it.
07:09I always knew you were a brave man.
07:11But are you really okay not telling anyone else that I'm being discharged today?
07:15I'm really okay with it.
07:16I support you.
07:18It's whatever you want.
07:19I'm going to follow your lead on this.
07:22Thank you.
07:23It's just that if Stella found out, she would try and arrange a whole welcome home thing with decorations and
07:29food, drinks, people.
07:32No doubt.
07:33I just need some time to adjust on my own, you know?
07:36And I'll make sure you get it.
07:39So, do you have any idea when they're going to give you your discharge orders?
07:44Anytime, I think.
07:46Okay.
07:48What about follow-up appointments?
07:51Is that something we should do before we leave, or did you already take care of it?
07:55Nope, not yet.
07:57You know, you never told me about last night.
08:00Michael James Scott?
08:01Tell me everything.
08:03You're changing the subject.
08:05Yeah, I am.
08:07I have just reached my limit when it comes to talking about medical stuff.
08:12I need a break.
08:15Fair enough.
08:18Michael James Scott was phenomenal.
08:20I wish you could have been there.
08:21Okay, those weren't here yesterday.
08:25Where did you get those?
08:26Oh, they're from Rick.
08:28He came last night.
08:31So, after Rick left my place, he went straight to the Metro Court Gardens to meet with Ava?
08:37Right.
08:37Yes.
08:38And it looked like they were having a pretty intense conversation.
08:41And then what?
08:42They talked for a bit, and then Rick took off.
08:45I stuck around to keep an eye on Ava, just in case.
08:49And?
08:51She ran straight to Sidwell and cozied right up to him.
08:56What were they talking about?
08:58I have no idea.
08:59I was too far away.
09:01You gotta have an idea about it.
09:03Okay.
09:03I have a guess.
09:06Okay.
09:08I think Ava was trying to relay a message from Rick to Sidwell.
09:15Why go through a middleman?
09:16Why can't Rick just talk to Sidwell himself?
09:20Because Lucy Coe was there.
09:23So, I don't think he wanted her to hear whatever he had to say.
09:27So, you can't just stroll up to the table.
09:30He had to use Ava as a means to communicate with Sidwell.
09:35Good job.
09:38There's only one problem.
09:40What's up?
09:43You.
09:45You don't like Rick.
09:48Why should I trust you, Tick?
09:52Well, I am glad that you have finally seen reason.
09:55Or at least you're accepting mine.
09:57I can't come forward.
09:58Okay?
09:59I won't abandon Phoebe.
10:00We can't find her family.
10:01Chase and I are all she's got.
10:03She belongs with us.
10:05So, the only reason you're keeping quiet is for Phoebe's sake?
10:08And for mine.
10:11I've already fallen so deeply in love with that little sweet baby girl.
10:15I just want to be her mother and I want Chase to be her father.
10:20I knew that was going to be the case and you have the family's full support.
10:24We will move heaven and earth to make sure that adoption happens.
10:28Oh, no, no, no.
10:28Granny, please, please don't get involved.
10:30I already talked to Alexis.
10:31She said it's going to be difficult because Phoebe's a ward of the state.
10:34All the more reason for me to get involved?
10:36No, but Chase won't like us using our connections.
10:42When he is holding his daughter in his arms, he's going to like them just fine.
10:46I haven't even talked to Chase about the adoption.
10:49I don't even know if he feels the same way.
10:52Brooklyn, all you have to do is look at him when he is with her.
10:56Okay, if you're not sure, go and talk to him and be honest about your feelings for Phoebe
11:03and just concentrate on that and put all this accident business behind you.
11:10Say that again.
11:11I just want to make sure I heard it.
11:15I would love to go away with you for the weekend.
11:19So let's do it.
11:22Great.
11:24I was just so ready for you to say that you needed to think about it.
11:27Oh, I already have.
11:28I knew what you were going to ask me.
11:30Well, how?
11:32I've been talking up the Hudson Valley a lot lately.
11:36Oh, hi.
11:37Gee, I thought I was being subtle.
11:39No, you weren't.
11:40Well, I just was trying to make the place sound more appealing.
11:43That way you could look past any qualms you might have about going away with me.
11:47Oh, that's a good strategy.
11:48Yeah, considering our history, I thought it was a good idea.
11:50Yeah, it is a little risky for us to go away,
11:52but I decided that I'm not going to live my life in the past
11:56and things have been going so well between us.
11:59I kind of think that should be celebrated.
12:04Yes, it should.
12:05Mm-hmm.
12:06I'm going to go book that hotel right now.
12:08Okay.
12:09Wait, but first you take those beautiful flowers to Mrs. Wilson, room 712.
12:15Got it.
12:15Yes.
12:16And kiss me.
12:19Hmm.
12:25How come Brick always seems to come around when I'm away?
12:28Brick is a friend.
12:29He's harmless.
12:30Okay, well, I may not be if he continues to hang around you.
12:34Oh, and what are you going to do about it?
12:36Well, harmless or not, I can't...
12:38Come in.
12:40Hey.
12:41Oh, hi, Curtis.
12:42Hey, Elizabeth.
12:44It's finally happened.
12:46You've been cleared to leave.
12:47Oh, hallelujah.
12:48Finally.
12:49Okay, but first we have to go through your discharge paperwork.
12:52There's a lot of information here.
12:54It's all written down, but we're going to go through this together.
12:59Okay.
13:00You're absolutely right.
13:02I don't like Rick.
13:05And Rick doesn't like me either.
13:07You don't think you're being a little childish?
13:09Okay, look, I don't know him well enough.
13:13But you're having me follow him, which tells me that you're doubting his loyalty.
13:18So, all I can tell you is that he and Ava were talking about something.
13:26You didn't hear what they were saying.
13:28No.
13:28No, I didn't.
13:29I was too far away.
13:30Okay?
13:31But Rick and Ava are definitely conspiring.
13:36So, you tell me.
13:37What's the move right now?
13:40Nothing right now.
13:41You've given me a lot to think about, but you don't make a move until I tell you to.
13:50Okay.
13:53Understood.
13:54You got my number?
13:56Call me if you need me.
13:57All right?
14:09Hey, Sonny, what's up?
14:11Rick.
14:12I need to see you.
14:15So, the first thing you're going to want to do is wash your hands.
14:19Why don't you go and grab the car and bring it around?
14:22You don't need to be here for this.
14:24Honey, if you don't mind, I'd like to stay.
14:26Maybe I can help if needed.
14:28If that's okay with you.
14:31Yeah.
14:32I guess it would be good to have another person familiar with the instructions.
14:37It would be.
14:38You're going to need help, especially in the first few days.
14:41Okay, then.
14:43Let's keep going.
14:44Okay.
14:46So, you're going to clean your wound three times a day.
14:49Take the banded jaws.
14:51Soak the gauze with saline.
14:52You're going to put the gauze onto the deepest part of the wound and gently blot around the area.
14:59I have taken a personal interest in this case because both Jordan and Curtis are very dear friends of mine.
15:07I completely understand where you're coming from.
15:10I've appreciated Jordan as a colleague for a while and always respected her professionalism.
15:15But now we've become close friends too.
15:18Oh.
15:19Yeah.
15:19And it breaks my heart to see her suffering like this.
15:23I want to do whatever I can to make this right.
15:27Yes, and I'm sure that that is exactly how Curtis feels too.
15:32It's just...
15:39I'm sure that his intentions are good.
15:47It's just I'm concerned that his personal feelings about Dr. Gannon could be clouding his judgment a little bit.
15:54I'm interested in justice, not a witch hunt.
15:58Which is why I want to find the other driver so I can determine if there is a case to
16:02be made.
16:03Okay, I'm very relieved to hear you say that.
16:07That said, given the facts in the case so far, Dr. Gannon does fit the bill as someone who could
16:13have been the other driver.
16:15But it's still very early in the investigation.
16:18We haven't even questioned him yet.
16:21You seem relieved that we don't have more on Dr. Gannon.
16:25I'm hoping that it isn't Dr. Gannon.
16:28He saved my daughter's life.
16:31Oh, look at her.
16:33Did you sing Phoebs a song or did you rock her to sleep?
16:37Well, first the song, then I rocked her, then the song again, and she was out like a light.
16:42And you have to touch.
16:43No, it wasn't that hard.
16:45Honestly, I just wanted an excuse to hold her.
16:47I know exactly what you mean.
16:49And when she focuses on you, it's like the whole world stops.
16:54And then right before she closes her eyes, she does this big stretch followed by the cutest little yawn.
16:59And sometimes she makes those little bubbles.
17:01You go watch her all day.
17:06Listen, I, uh, I ran into my grandmother earlier and I talked to her about something I've been feeling for
17:12a while.
17:13I'm not sure where you are with this, but, um, I want more than anything.
17:20I want to adopt Phoebe.
17:23Oh, thank God.
17:24So do I.
17:32Thanks for coming by on such a short notice.
17:35Sure.
17:36No problem.
17:38You know, I was, uh, a little surprised that you wanted to meet here of old places.
17:44Well, I just wanted to see if Sibbo made any changes.
17:48You know, this place always feels like it belongs to me.
17:55Well, I will again.
17:58We're going to get these peers back for you, Sonny.
18:00You seem pretty confident, Rick.
18:04Sibbo's proven himself to be tough to beat.
18:06What makes you think we're going to come out on top?
18:10Yeah.
18:11You're going to win because you're smarter than Sibbo.
18:14You think so, huh?
18:15Oh, I know so.
18:16Now you're playing the long game, Sonny.
18:18Sibbo's just reacting.
18:21You're singing a different tune from yesterday.
18:26What are you talking about?
18:28Well, you questioned my judgment as far as hiring Ethan.
18:35You still think I made the wrong call?
18:39Ethan, thank you so much for coming.
18:42I wanted to check in with you and see how things are going now that you're back in Port Charles.
18:48All right.
18:49Well, thank you.
18:51Are you still staying at Lulu's?
18:55Oh, yeah.
18:56Sure am.
18:58Well, she needs a new couch.
19:01It's like sleeping on a board that smells like popcorn.
19:04Yeah, exactly.
19:05The popcorn part kind of makes me hungry.
19:08Did you really want to talk to me about couches and popcorn?
19:14Or were you going to ask me about why it's lighter to work for Sonny?
19:20Well, since you brought it up, how is your professional endeavor going?
19:27So far, so good.
19:30Good.
19:32Quit.
19:37Why would I quit?
19:39I just started.
19:41Because a better opportunity has come up.
19:45Michael needs a man in Australia.
19:49Okay.
19:50And what would this man be expected to do?
19:54Scout locations for Aurora Wellness.
19:58And Michael thinks I'm the man for that job.
20:00The same Michael that I haven't spoken to in years.
20:02He's your cousin.
20:04Family's family.
20:04Okay.
20:05Even so, I know nothing about the wellness industry.
20:07Nobody does.
20:08You're a natural.
20:09And Michael really needs someone he can trust in Australia.
20:14And he thinks that man is me.
20:20Tracy, cut it out.
20:22Just tell me why you want to get me out of town.
20:25Not out of town.
20:28Away from Sonny.
20:32I question Ethan's motives, not your judgment.
20:35I don't think he's trustworthy, but then neither do you.
20:39Unless he did something to prove himself.
20:41Did you offer him the money to leave poor chargers?
20:43Yeah, I did.
20:44He turned it down because he said it wasn't about money.
20:49If that were the case, he could just go elsewhere.
20:54Or Ethan figures that he stands to make a heck of a lot more money by sticking around.
20:58You know what?
21:02This test was your idea.
21:04And as far as I'm concerned, Ethan passed.
21:08But as I can see, you don't trust him.
21:12Is this tension between you two going to be a problem?
21:16As I said, I trust your judgment.
21:18And if you insist that Ethan sticks around, I'll be professional.
21:23You can do that?
21:24Yeah.
21:25Because yesterday when Ethan showed up to my office, you ran out of there like a bat out of hell.
21:32So where did you have to go that was so urgent?
21:38Oh, I had a meeting at the DA's office.
21:43About Rocco?
21:44No.
21:45Community service?
21:45No, no, no.
21:46Another client.
21:48Because if it's ever about my grandson, I would hope that you would tell me.
21:55Absolutely.
21:57I'd never hold anything back.
22:02Yes, it was Dr. Gannon who saved Lulu's life.
22:07And he also happens to be a very close friend of my son.
22:12Mayor Collins, are you asking me to bury this?
22:19No.
22:20No.
22:21No, not at all.
22:22If Dr. Gannon knowingly left the scene of an accident, then I would want him to be held accountable.
22:30I'm hoping that your investigation will clear him so that you can find who was driving that car.
22:38Because I think Jordan does deserve some answers.
22:52Well, good luck.
22:54Remember, you have an incredible support system to get you through this recovery.
22:59I know.
23:00And if you need anything, do not hesitate to reach out to me or come back here anytime.
23:06I will.
23:07But I hope I don't have to.
23:09Thank you, Elizabeth, for everything.
23:11It's my pleasure.
23:14You got this.
23:16Thank you, Elizabeth.
23:17I'll take you from here.
23:18Okay.
23:20Hello, honey.
23:22Ready to go?
23:23Let's get you home.
23:37I have known from the second that we brought Phoebe home that I wanted to adopt her.
23:41But we agreed that we would foster her until her family could be tracked down.
23:44That's what I thought we were doing, too.
23:46And on some level, I think I was preparing myself to let her go the whole time.
23:51Me, too.
23:52But then time went on, and no one found her family.
23:54And I just started feeling like Phoebe was ours.
23:58But I didn't know how you felt, so I didn't want to get ahead of myself.
24:00And I tried to convince myself that fostering Phoebe was best.
24:04But then I ran into Alexis at the park, and I asked her what would happen to Phoebe if her
24:08family never came forward.
24:09She would stay a ward of the state, and the state would choose a family to adopt her.
24:13I know I checked.
24:14But we can't let that happen.
24:15No, you're right.
24:16We can't.
24:17Alexis said that if we do want to adopt Phoebe, we're going to have to fight for her.
24:21Then let's fight, because I would do anything for that girl.
24:25Okay.
24:26And she also recommended that we conduct our own search for Phoebe's family, and that we be prepared for a
24:32pretty extensive background check.
24:34Are we ready for that?
24:37You mean they would dig into my suspension from the PCPD and the demotion?
24:41Chase, it's not you I'm worried about.
24:43It's me.
24:44Okay.
25:05Jordan, you okay?
25:08Ever since the accident, all I've wanted is to come home.
25:13And it's great to be back.
25:16I had just come back from yoga.
25:20You were working on the design for the nursery.
25:25I had made dinner reservations at Luis's.
25:28And we were heading out the door.
25:31We were so happy.
25:34And now, I look around, and it's like, nothing has changed.
25:41Everything is just the same as it was.
25:46Except for me.
25:54Thanks for coming.
25:56Well, don't thank me yet.
25:57I'm not sure I'm staying.
25:59Um, if you summon me here for some afternoon delight, you're going to be disappointed.
26:04The answer is no.
26:06Afternoon delight isn't...
26:08What'd you get that from?
26:10It's a song, isn't it?
26:14No, listen, um, I apologize if I gave you the wrong impression.
26:21It's as gorgeous as I think you are, Justine.
26:27I didn't come here because, you know, I expected us to jump in bed.
26:33Well, I'm glad to hear that.
26:35So then, why did you need to see me?
26:40It's about my brother.
26:44Did he have a meeting with anybody in your office yesterday?
26:50Rick's getaway plans sound wonderful, and I could totally use the break.
26:55I'm just a little worried about you, Dan.
26:57Yeah.
26:58Well, he's probably old enough to stay by himself now, right?
27:01Yeah, yeah, he is.
27:03And he's done it before, and I'm sure he would love the house by himself for a couple of days.
27:09He could stay with me, you know.
27:11No, it's okay.
27:12It's okay, but maybe if you could just stop by or invite him over for dinner, you know, he'll bring
27:18dessert.
27:19I just don't want him home alone for the entire time I'm gone.
27:23How about if I do both?
27:25I don't want to pass up any time with my grandson.
27:27Oh, thank you.
27:29I know how much he loves spending time with you.
27:31Yeah.
27:32Does Aidan know that you're going away with Rick?
27:35He does.
27:36Yeah, I asked him, and he seems fine with it.
27:40You know, this weekend is kind of a big step for me and Rick.
27:47Maybe too big?
27:50Let's face it.
27:51I've got a pretty checkered past, one that doesn't exactly look great on paper.
27:55I passed Bailey Lou off as my own.
27:57That was fraud.
27:58You were trying to save a child from their abusive father.
28:02Maxie would be the first in line to give you a statement of support on your behalf.
28:06I hope you're right, because I cannot imagine losing Phoebe.
28:10We know her, and we are the only family she's known.
28:14We know what kind of pacifiers she likes, and how she likes her bath, and that she hates
28:20loud sneezes.
28:21We know that she lights up to the sound of your voice.
28:24And that she's the happiest when you start to rock her to sleep.
28:27Well, like you said, I do have the touch.
28:29You do.
28:30Which is why I am so afraid that something I've done will be the reason that we lose her.
28:36Look, I feel the same way.
28:39But we have to try, even if we're afraid.
28:42You're right.
28:43I can't believe I'm the one saying this.
28:45You are a quarter main.
28:47I know.
28:48No, you have resources and influence.
28:51We've got a congresswoman on our side.
28:53We have to do whatever it takes.
28:55Pull out all the stops to keep Phoebe.
28:57Because that amazing little girl belongs with us.
29:03This family has paid a terrible price because of Sonny.
29:07Staying away is the only way to stay safe.
29:11I appreciate what you're trying to do.
29:14Tracy, really.
29:15But it's not like my dad was a law-abiding citizen.
29:18And neither am I, for that matter.
29:20Do not compare yourself or your father to that garbage Sonny Carinthos.
29:26He is the reason that people that I love are dead.
29:29And history has a way of repeating itself.
29:31Not always.
29:34Well, I am not going to wait around for a phone call that you are dead in a ditch somewhere.
29:40Sonny may not have another person I love.
29:42Okay.
29:43Look, I know that you're just trying to protect me, Tracy.
29:46And I love you for that.
29:48But I've been taking care of myself for a very long time.
29:51And I don't intend to stop any time soon.
29:57Did you really wake up one day halfway across the world and say, gee, I'd like to go back
30:04to Port Charles and work for Sonny Carinthos?
30:08No.
30:10Why are you here?
30:13I was supposed to meet up with Sonny.
30:17I was working a job with a partner.
30:20And, uh, the details don't matter.
30:23Oh, really?
30:25I'm assuming the authorities would feel differently?
30:28We were supposed to meet up in Port Charles.
30:30But she hasn't shown up yet.
30:33Why did you pick Port Charles as a meeting place?
30:36It's the closest place I have to a home.
30:38I mean, I thought it would be nice to be in a familiar setting, you know?
30:43Take a breather with people who actually gave a damn about me.
30:47That's why I want you to at least consider my offer.
30:50You mean Michael's offer to go scout Australia?
30:55Just think about it.
30:58Before it's too late.
31:01I have replayed the night of the accident in my head over and over.
31:06After all our ups and downs, I was finally happy.
31:10If I could go back, all I had to do was keep my eyes on the road.
31:16And then, nothing changes.
31:23Look, honey, it was an accident, okay?
31:27You didn't do anything anyone hasn't done a thousand times.
31:30And it wasn't just you.
31:31That other driver bears responsibility for not stopping.
31:36If they had, we could have gotten you the help sooner that you need.
31:39I just wish we knew who the other driver of that car was.
31:43I think I found him.
31:46It is so good to see you, Brooklyn.
31:48Tracy said that you were back in town again.
31:50Ethan, this is my husband, Harrison Chase.
31:53Call me Chase.
31:54Good to meet you.
31:54Hey, Ethan Lovett.
31:55It's a pleasure to meet you as well, Chase.
31:57So, what are you doing here?
31:58Tracy invited me over.
32:00But then she had to step out.
32:01She had some sort of emergency with something named Hades.
32:04I'm not the Greek god.
32:07Hades is Granny's horse.
32:08Although, I'm sure she has connections to both.
32:11She told me I could finish my tea.
32:14It's just as well because I needed a little breather after our toe-to-toe.
32:17I know just what you mean.
32:19Yeah, I think we all do.
32:21And who is this lovely little lady?
32:23This is Phoebe.
32:24Wow.
32:25Your daughter is adorable.
32:28Technically, Phoebe's not our daughter.
32:29We're fostering her.
32:31Yeah.
32:32Oh, that's very nice of you.
32:34How did that come about?
32:36Well, Chase and I were with her mother when she gave birth.
32:41Fortunately, there were some complications and she tragically passed away.
32:47Oh, that is awful.
32:52And she didn't have any other family?
32:54No one who could come help look after Phoebe.
32:57Well, the PCPD has been looking for her family, but so far nobody's come forward.
33:01The only thing we know about Phoebe's mother is her name, Delilah Wilson.
33:07I know that Rick is working with Sonny now.
33:10And, well, I will be the first to admit I am very close with Sonny.
33:17But...
33:17But not everything Sonny does is legal?
33:20Yes.
33:22Okay, so then you have considered the dangers of Rick's proximity to Sonny.
33:28Of course I have.
33:30Okay.
33:30But Rick has been up front with me about what he's doing with Sonny and why.
33:36Okay, I'm not going to lie.
33:37Yes, I've had my doubts, both because I know Rick could get caught up in something criminal
33:41and because of his fraught relationship with his brother.
33:45Yes, they have quite a history, don't they?
33:46Oh, yes, believe me, I know.
33:51But Rick has changed.
33:53In the past, he was always torn between being this good and smart and funny man who loved
34:00me and a man who was consumed with anger toward his brother.
34:06Yes, and I remember you telling me an awful lot about that Rick.
34:10Rick, it's kind of hard to forget someone who's as envious and ruthless and double-dealing
34:16as he was.
34:17But now that he and Sonny are actually getting along, Rick is experiencing a peace that he
34:24has never known.
34:26And that's why I am ready and excited for whatever happens next in our relationship.
34:34Ava, did you talk to him?
34:37Good.
34:38Yes, Ava, I do still want to go through with it.
34:42But it's going to have to be under absolute secrecy.
34:46Thank you for letting me know.
34:50So?
34:52No one in the DA's office had a meeting with Rick Lansing yesterday.
34:56All right, that's helpful.
34:57Thanks for looking into this for me.
34:59I didn't just do you a favor for a thank you, Sonny.
35:04You need to tell me what's going on.
35:06Well, that's why I called you, because I wanted to see you in person.
35:12My brother Rick, he went after me and my family for years.
35:20Recently, he had an epiphany that life's too short and he wanted to work with me again.
35:29He wanted to be my brother.
35:32Then I find out he lied to me again.
35:38And I'm just worried that he wants to finish what he started years ago.
