03:28man never got that memo you know he's amazing to me as if he's the only person on the planet
03:34who's had a rough childhood seriously right i mean he uses his origin story to make himself look like
03:43a hero i mean he has a rap sheet that's longer than mine he's not a hero he's a tyrant
03:49well
03:49he'd probably think that that was a compliment
03:53he probably would
03:56can we use his past crimes against him you mean black i mean you know reminders
04:04his past transgressions and against him yeah that go over well yeah i mean did michael
04:10ever tell you anything about him about victor yeah anything at all maybe in passing
04:17um something sinister something clandestine please don't answer that question i was having
04:26a private conversation just now you were trolling for privileged information from my wife i was
04:32talking to my business partner i was talking to her about work nice try generally the transmission
04:39of said information could be considered a violation of attorney-client privilege not to mention the trust
04:46upon which our marriage is built he tells me nothing well some men offer their wives jewelry
04:56i offer plausible deniability thank god you give me jewelry as well no you deserve everything my dear
05:05okay this is sweet it's very sweet it's cutting into my billable hours meeting is in session
05:14all right what's my defense strategy well since we last spoke i have been given
05:21complete unredacted copies of the email evidence i have combed through them thoroughly i've completed
05:27my review and and uh along with my assessment i had the email evidence examined by a digital forensic
05:38expert and the hope that it would help our case okay and what happened the expert concluded
05:51that by all appearances the evidence is authentic
05:58are you kidding me wait wait a second these emails look real which means which means i'm screwed
06:08that's what it means
07:10You sound hopeful.
07:13You know, I'm really thankful that you're willing to check in with me and let me know how you're doing.
07:20I am going to see Aria this weekend and I will give her a big hug from you, of course.
07:29I miss you, too.
07:32I love you so much, Maria.
07:35I think about you every day.
07:41Okay, talk to you later.
07:51Bud, you're home.
07:52Mom, where's Sienna?
07:53Shipstairs?
07:55I'm here.
07:56Is everything okay?
07:57Sienna's instincts were right.
07:59Matt's alive.
08:01He's in Genoa City.
08:09I understand how anxious you are to regain control of Newman Enterprises.
08:14It's very important to our family.
08:16Yeah, but I just don't think that the case against Phyllis is hard to prove.
08:20I mean, she has my company.
08:23She sold it.
08:23And the emails between her and Kane Ashby prove that she intended to do so.
08:29Which essentially is a full confession.
08:31I mean, the evidence speaks for itself.
08:34Well, there's some strong evidence, but there are extenuating circumstances.
08:38This falls under the category of cybercrimes and the laws around AI are constantly evolving.
08:46There are other issues.
08:48What's that?
08:49There's a lot of bad blood between the parties.
08:53Extensive negative history between the Newmans and Kane and Phyllis.
08:57This has to be done by the book in order to prove that Phyllis was undeniably in the wrong.
09:02Facts, not emotions, will win the day.
09:05And they will.
09:06And there's the long-standing animosity between Phyllis and me.
09:10I have to make sure that they won't hold that against me when I present the case.
09:13And, Victor, I need you to understand that in spite of my feelings about Phyllis, they won't sway me.
09:19I will treat this case like I would any other.
09:22However, I will follow the facts, seek the truth, and uphold the law.
09:28I appreciate that, Christine, and I know you will.
09:31I just want it to be clear.
09:34Thank you for your time.
09:35Let me take you to the door.
09:37And again, thank you for coming by.
09:39Have a nice day.
09:44That's a smart move.
09:45You go to Christine.
09:47Although I will say, going by the book might take a little time.
09:54Mm-hmm.
09:56Well, I think the wheels of justice will turn our way.
10:01And while we wait, we watch Phyllis Summers unravel.
10:09And I'll enjoy a spectacle.
10:15Okay.
10:16Well, this is definitely not good news.
10:19Not what we hoped for.
10:21There has to be another way forward.
10:25Okay, so this expert, do they really know AI?
10:31Very well.
10:33Mm-hmm.
10:34And why did they conclude that the emails are real?
10:38Well, for starters, the emails appear to have been generated from within, Chancellor,
10:43when you were still in control of the company.
10:46But they weren't.
10:47They look like they were sent from your email account, which is password-protected with a
10:54secure server and a private IP address.
10:57That never happened.
10:58It never happened, Michael.
10:59The language in your emails mimics your personal style.
11:04Of course it does.
11:06Because that's what AI does.
11:09Yeah, if that's the case.
11:11Wait a second.
11:12Wait a second.
11:13What do you mean, if that's the case?
11:15If that's the case, AI did a damn good job.
11:20By making it look like I actually wrote those emails.
11:24My God.
11:25I am screwed.
11:28Wait a minute.
11:29There has to be a way to prove that it's a lie.
11:32That the emails are not authentic.
11:36What about another forensics expert?
11:39I thought about that, too.
11:41But there's a problem.
11:42Actually, a series of problems.
11:44Okay, well, what are the problems?
11:46Well, first, if we have the evidence examined by multiple experts and they arrive at the
11:52same conclusion.
11:53You mean that the emails appear real?
11:56Yeah, it hurts us.
11:57It hurts our case.
11:58Yeah, yeah.
11:58Michael, honestly, I think it's a risk that we should take.
12:02We just need one expert to contest the authenticity of the emails.
12:08Yeah, well, here's the other issue.
12:12Even if we find a team that can reveal the emails were all created by artificial intelligence
12:20software, we would have to show that proof in court.
12:27Okay, where's the problem?
12:30Well, the prosecution can use the same experts to prove that you stole Newman Enterprises from
12:38Victor, also using AI.
12:40Right, right, right.
12:47Victor is using the same thing I used against him to take me down.
12:52Matt is here in town?
12:55You saw him?
12:56I did.
12:57I had a terrible feeling.
12:59Well, at least you know now that you weren't responsible for his death.
13:03Yeah, you know, it made me sick to think that I had killed someone, but just because of the
13:08way that he and I fought, it was so ugly, and I still wake up in a cold sweat about
13:13it,
13:13but, you know, now that we are sure that he is alive, I wish I had finished the job when
13:20I had the chance.
13:20We just can't get rid of him, can we?
13:23We will this time.
13:25How did you find out he's back?
13:27Well, I was at the park cafe picking up some drinks for us, and when I came outside, he
13:30was there.
13:32In broad daylight?
13:33Yeah.
13:33He didn't seem too concerned about keeping a low profile.
13:36That makes no sense.
13:37You'd think he'd be more cautious.
13:39Okay, was he waiting for you?
13:41It didn't seem like it.
13:42So what did you do when you saw him?
13:44Did you confront him?
13:45Did you call the police?
13:46I went after him.
13:47And Audra was there, so I told her to call the cops.
13:50Audra was there?
13:50Yeah.
13:51I ran into her at the cafe, but before she could make the call,
13:53he punched me and took off.
13:55Wait, he hit you?
13:57Are you okay?
13:58Do you need to be checked out?
13:59I'm fine, I promise.
14:02So, have the police been contacted?
14:05Should we call them now?
14:06You know, I can always reach out to James.
14:08No, no, no, no.
14:08Let's hold off on that, all right?
14:10I trust Burrow, but I prefer the Newman security team track Matt down,
14:14then we can deal with this ourselves.
14:16Nicholas.
14:17Let's just say the cops find Matt.
14:20He's already skirted the legal system once.
14:22That cannot happen again.
14:24Yeah, and he's on our turf now.
14:25He couldn't have gotten far.
14:26I cannot allow him to escape again.
14:29I'll deal with this bastard myself.
14:35I still don't understand why would Matt show his face in Genoa City
14:40after he held us hostage in Vegas?
14:43What happened when you saw him?
14:46Did he threaten you?
14:47Apparently, he was pretending that he wasn't Matt Clark.
14:51What?
14:51Yeah.
14:52I got on his face, and he acted like he didn't know who he was.
14:55He said he didn't remember any explosion in Vegas
14:57or what he's put our family through.
14:59That's bizarre.
15:01Okay, what about Audra?
15:03Did he seem to recognize her?
15:05No.
15:06No, no.
15:07Audra said afterwards he seemed excited that she recognized him,
15:10but upset that she seemed afraid of him.
15:12I don't know.
15:13It happened so fast, and it was right before I saw him.
15:15Although, what did you think of his behavior?
15:18He didn't seem entirely like himself.
15:21I mean, he asked me if I knew who he was,
15:23and he seemed pretty desperate.
15:25How do you think he benefits by pretending
15:27like he doesn't know who he really is?
15:31What if he's not pretending?
15:34You seem confident.
15:36Yeah, well, I simply relayed the facts to Christine.
15:43Well, I'm sure she appreciated you
15:45turned over the evidence to the authorities right away.
15:48Yep.
15:52You know,
15:57Phyllis and Kay Nashby
16:00are prone to reckless behavior.
16:05If they think for one minute
16:08they can get away with stealing from me,
16:13they have another thing coming.
16:17I was just telling Chelsea the same thing.
16:20And I was telling Adam
16:21I don't think Kane and Phyllis would be that stupid
16:24to commit a crime over email,
16:26leaving a digital trail anyone could find.
16:29Guess you're just going to have to ask them
16:30about their action.
16:32You know, I think I'd rather ask Victor.
16:34Did they leave a trail?
16:36Or were these emails fabricated?
16:39And if so,
16:41did either one of you have something to do with it?
16:46Victor is a bastard.
16:48He's trying to squeeze me out.
16:51He knows what you did.
16:53I didn't do anything.
16:55I didn't steal anything.
16:56And Victor never planted evidence against you.
16:59Except he did, Michael.
17:00Well, now you have ownership of his company,
17:03which kind of verifies the emails.
17:06You see the dilemma there?
17:08One thing cancels the other one out.
17:10Okay, whose side are you on?
17:12Well, yours, of course.
17:13But if we want to win,
17:15we need to see the big picture.
17:18You and Kane had total access
17:20to Victor's AI software
17:22when you targeted Newman Enterprises.
17:25Keep your voice down, please.
17:28Oh, wait a minute, wait a minute.
17:29What if Victor used a page of the same playbook
17:33and used an AI program of his own
17:36to implicate Phyllis?
17:37Right.
17:37What do you think of that, Michael?
17:40I think we're at a standoff.
17:42That's pretty clear to me.
17:43Yes, we are.
17:44And Victor is lashing out now.
17:46He's flailing.
17:48And here you are,
17:49oh, sidestepping,
17:51just to placate Victor.
17:54I'm letting you know the facts.
17:56As you're turning, that's my job,
17:58to let you know what you're up against.
18:00Okay.
18:00Well, then tell me what my defense is.
18:02Please.
18:06What about this?
18:09What if we had an audio recording
18:13of Victor confessing?
18:16No.
18:17No?
18:18Why not?
18:18It's legal.
18:19He would never admit to doing it.
18:20He would not admit to anyone but you.
18:24Not while I'm acting as your attorney.
18:25Okay, how about you're not my attorney anymore
18:28because you're coming really, really close.
18:31Okay, why don't we play nice?
18:32Proving Victor's guilt does not prove your innocence.
18:35That is bull and you know it.
18:37That is bull.
18:38He fabricated that evidence,
18:40then he gave it to his little weaselly daughter,
18:42and she handed it to the DA on a silver platter.
18:47Lying to an officer of the court is a felony.
18:50You used fake documents to justify a coup,
18:53also a felony.
18:54Michael!
18:56Seriously?
18:57Are you my lawyer?
18:59Do you want to protect me?
19:01Or are you just trying to sabotage this case?
19:10Look, I have a hard time believing
19:12that anything Matt does is sincere.
19:14I just don't know if I think
19:15this memory loss thing is real.
19:17Okay.
19:18When we fought,
19:19I bashed him in the head with a rock so hard
19:22that I thought I killed him.
19:23Look, there was blood everywhere.
19:25He was out cold.
19:27And a severe head injury with lasting consequences,
19:31it is definitely a possibility.
19:35If there was a strange trauma...
19:38Would that really cause amnesia?
19:40It's hard to say.
19:43When Audra said that Matt seemed confused,
19:45I just assumed that she fell for another one of his games.
19:48She doesn't know Matt like we do.
19:49Okay, but she knew Mitch.
19:52Right?
19:52And he was always confident.
19:53He was always sure of himself.
19:55And she thought he was off?
19:57Maybe Audra picked up on something I didn't see.
19:59I don't know.
20:00I was just so furious when I saw him.
20:02I just wanted to pummel the guy.
20:03Look, it doesn't matter.
20:04It doesn't matter if this is real or fake.
20:07This...
20:07This bastard is going down.
20:11Nick?
20:12Are you okay?
20:13Yeah, can we get you anything then?
20:15I'm fine.
20:16I'm fine.
20:16I need some air.
20:24This can't be good for Dad.
20:26All this tension.
20:27Especially given what he's dealing with.
20:29Just give him some time to cool down.
20:32We're all very frustrated by Matt.
20:34And no one feels that more than your father.
20:40Keep it together.
20:46Keep it together.
20:47Keep it together.
20:50Look, Phyllis.
20:51Michael really wants to help you.
20:54Yeah.
20:56I get no thanks.
20:57Just accusations.
21:00But...
21:01I do want you to know that I am committed to this case, both as your friend and your lawyer.
21:07I serve your best interests, not Victor's.
21:11Okay.
21:11Really?
21:12Really?
21:13Prove it.
21:14Come up with a better strategy.
21:16Or I'll find someone who will, Michael.
21:18This isn't as easy as you seem to think.
21:21You know what?
21:22I'm going to give you a week.
21:23I'm going to give you a week to come up with a better plan.
21:26If you don't, if you don't, I will walk.
21:30Who is going to represent you if I don't?
21:32Why are we even working together?
21:35Because I'm all you have.
21:38Christine and Victor will bury you if you're not careful.
21:41This case is that close to being unwinnable.
21:46Okay, if that's what you think, why are we talking right now?
21:50Because I am going to protect you from yourself.
21:54And I'm the only lawyer crazy enough to accomplish that.
22:04You know, as Phyllis' attorney, I'm sure that Michael Baldwin will hire some expert to authenticate the emails.
22:12I believe that to be true.
22:14But that's not what I asked you.
22:17What did you ask me?
22:19If these emails aren't real and someone in this family knew they weren't real when they were handed to the
22:24DA, that puts us in serious legal jeopardy.
22:28We don't have to worry about that.
22:32I disagree, Victor.
22:34And I know this is a sore subject, but if Nikki was here, I think that she would disagree as
22:38well.
22:38I don't think that we should go there, Chelsea.
22:42The authenticity of these emails is irrelevant.
22:45Okay, so if it looks real, then that makes it real?
22:48Well, if we're going off that logic, then we shouldn't care about the documents that Phyllis and Kane used to
22:54obtain Newman Enterprises in the first place.
22:57Because those were bogus.
22:58Those were AI generating.
22:58Then we have to give back what they stole.
23:00By any means necessary?
23:02You bet.
23:04I agree.
23:05Phyllis needs to give back what she stole.
23:07And both of them, they should pay for their crimes.
23:09Yeah, so should Billy.
23:11That's different.
23:12It's not different.
23:14There's no need for you to defend Billy Boy Abbott.
23:17I'm not, Victor.
23:18I'm fighting for us.
23:19I'm fighting for this family.
23:21I don't want us to take things too far with...
23:23We can't come back from.
23:25Son, what's going on?
23:27Noah ran into Matt Clark at the park.
23:29They got into it.
23:31That son of a bitch is still alive.
23:35He got away.
23:36But he is back in Genoa City, Dad.
23:38We have to find him.
23:40I need your help.
23:51You know, I actually agree with Michael.
23:55I mean, even if we prove that these emails were fabricated by AI,
24:00it actually, it opens the door to a charge that you used a similar program
24:05to forge the contracts to gain control of Newman Enterprises.
24:10Now, Victor sold Newman Enterprises to me for the right price.
24:15That's what the evidence shows.
24:17And that evidence was also AI-generated, and that fabrication can also be exposed.
24:22I'm not confident in my counsel.
24:25You know, maybe we should just cut our losses and make a deal.
24:31You cannot be serious right now.
24:33To save you?
24:35Yes, I am.
24:37Give Victor the company back in exchange for withdrawing the charges.
24:41No!
24:42No, I'm not fooling to Victor.
24:44All right, you know what?
24:45Hold on.
24:46Would that work?
24:47Would negotiating directly with Victor work?
24:50The case is already in Christine's hands.
24:52Even if Victor were to ask, she might not agree to drop them.
24:57You really are stuck.
25:01Oh, look at this.
25:02Speak of the devil.
25:04Oh.
25:05The timing.
25:08Victor isn't the only one to be swayed.
25:11Excuse me.
25:11Where are you going?
25:12Where am I going?
25:13I'm going to have a little chat with our new DA.
25:22Okay, here you go.
25:24Thanks, Mom.
25:26The Zen Master tease I was picking up for at the cafe got lost on all the craziness with Matt.
25:32I'm just relieved you were able to get away from him.
25:35Yeah.
25:35He landed a pretty good one before he took off.
25:37I'll get you some ice.
25:38No, no, I'm fine.
25:40Seriously.
25:41I'm just a little sore.
25:45Are you all right?
25:47Yeah, I'm not the one who got punched.
25:50You had the feeling that Matt was going to come back, that he's still alive, and now it's confirmed.
25:56Yeah, well, Sharon got me thinking that way.
25:58You were the one who first suspected that maybe Matt hadn't been killed.
26:04I've had a lot of experience with him coming back to haunt us.
26:08I'm so sorry for what he's put you both through.
26:11He landed you in the hospital.
26:14Matt has been a menace to every single person who's known him.
26:19You know, when he was lying there, I really, really thought that we were all free of him.
26:28That there was no way he could ever hurt any of us again.
26:31You know, this whole memory loss thing, you really think that this is just some ploy of his?
26:38Well, maybe that's the point for us to all go out of our minds trying to guess.
26:44Everything is a manipulation.
26:45Yeah, but that is a big, big risk for him to take, confronting you like that in public.
26:52Yeah, I was really caught off guard, and if I got my bearings back sooner, I would have stopped him,
26:58you know, made sure the police got there first.
27:00Better that you're safe.
27:03Yeah, and really far away from him.
27:05He's still out there.
27:08I had my chance, and I blew it.
27:11We will take care of this, Don.
27:13Your father went to talk to Victor for that exact reason.
27:18Matt won't leave this family for long.
27:22Right.
27:23What we're dealing with it now.
27:27Why the hell would Matt Jack go after Noah?
27:31Opened in a park.
27:33Apparently, Matt was acting like he didn't know who he was.
27:36Claimed he didn't recognize Noah.
27:38Amnesia?
27:40So that's one way to handle it.
27:42Pretend like you've done nothing, or have no knowledge of it.
27:46Well, could that be real, considering what Sienna did to him in Vegas?
27:48I think it's far more likely that this is just another one of his mind games.
27:53Well, whatever the hell is going on with him, I don't get why he would show himself so brazenly in
27:59this town.
27:59I mean, the guy must know you have to deal with the consequences.
28:04If he's forgotten who he is, he movies, or track, and catch.
28:08Matt doesn't make mistakes like this.
28:11Everything he does is very calculated.
28:13This isn't adding up.
28:14You think there's more at play?
28:16I don't know, but I'm going to take care of this guy before I bother finding out what.
28:23I knew something was off when Grandpa's team couldn't locate Matt's body in Vegas.
28:28Yep.
28:29Because he wasn't actually dead.
28:31I just wonder, where did he go after we fought?
28:36How did he manage to get himself out of the desert?
28:38And all the way back here?
28:41Cockroaches will always find a way.
28:43I think he gave Audra a pretty good scare in the park.
28:46What, did he get close to her?
28:47I don't think so.
28:50Honestly, it's all pretty much a blur.
28:51I saw him, and I reacted, and I shoved him to a wall.
28:55Oh, so you protected her.
28:56I wasn't thinking of anything except that I wanted him dead.
29:00That evil, hateful bastard just standing there acting all innocent.
29:05I just wanted to strangle him.
29:08You know, but somehow I was able to calm down enough to ask Audra to call my dad for help.
29:14That was a good instinct.
29:16Except Audra didn't have Dad's number, so she called Grandpa, who didn't answer.
29:20Well, given how he feels about Audra, that doesn't surprise me.
29:23Yeah, but if he had answered, maybe we would have stopped Matt from getting away.
29:27I think your dad feels guilty that you had to confront Matt alone.
29:33Matt's latest crime is getting Dad addicted to drugs.
29:36Like, what kind of monster does that?
29:38Someone who doesn't care.
29:40He has no respect for anyone else, not an ounce of empathy.
29:44I'm just relieved that this wasn't much worse and that you got home safe.
29:49You know, I never thought that I would say this, but it was probably good that Audra was there with
29:56you.
29:57It's true.
30:00So, um, just out of curiosity, um, why was she there with you?
30:08What were you and Audra doing together?
30:15He's definitely a long shot, Matt's still around, but, I mean, we can still check for evidence.
30:20Should we have Dad's team sweep the whole place and see if he's hiding somewhere?
30:22Yeah, we can talk to the cafe staff and the park rangers, too.
30:26Well, we might want to keep our search on the down low.
30:28I mean, Matt may realize we were looking for him, and it would be a hell of a lot better
30:32if he didn't know when we were coming.
30:33We should have been here.
30:35But how the hell could we have anticipated that Matt would find his way back here?
30:40I could have told Noah to stay home.
30:42You know, Matt could have grabbed him again.
30:44Wait, look, Noah's fine.
30:45We're going to find Matt.
30:46We're going to get this done, okay?
30:48Yeah.
30:49How does this keep happening?
30:51How does he keep getting away?
30:52This has to stop.
30:53He's ruining people's lives.
30:55It is not fair, not to Noah or she.
30:58I know this is hard, what he put you through.
31:02But we're going to stop him.
31:03I promise you, we're going to find him.
31:04We're going to put an end to this.
31:05No, it needs to happen like yesterday.
31:08Can I do something?
31:10Do you want some water?
31:11Do you want to sit down?
31:12No, I'm fine.
31:14Look, I want to help.
31:16And if you feel like you want to take a pill, like you can tell me.
31:21It's okay.
31:22It's all out in the open now.
31:23Adam, I'm upset.
31:24Am I allowed to be upset?
31:26Okay?
31:27I'm worried about my family.
31:30Right.
31:32Of course, I don't.
31:33I'm sorry.
31:34I do not mean to lash out at you.
31:36I'm just frustrated, okay?
31:38This is chaotic, and it's killing me.
31:44I also think I'm just a little hungry.
31:45You know, I didn't eat today.
31:46I think it's throwing me off.
31:54Hello, Christine.
31:56Phyllis?
31:57Just saying hi.
32:00We know each other too well for this.
32:02Let's just get to the point.
32:03Or better yet, save what you have to say for the judge and the jury.
32:07Oh, and wait.
32:08Unless you're ready to admit guilt, then I'm all ears.
32:11No, no guilt here.
32:13No guilt here.
32:14I know why you're a part of this.
32:15Because the Newmans are whiny little bitches.
32:18Tattletales.
32:19Sore losers.
32:21Victor Newman being the sorest loser of them all.
32:24That's my understanding that I was approached about potential crimes committed.
32:30Approached?
32:31You were bought, Christine.
32:34You were bought by Victor to help get his company back.
32:39Because I beat him.
32:41Sounds like a conversation you should have with your attorney.
32:43And for your sake, I really hope Michael's still representing you.
32:46You're going to need all the help you can get.
32:49Oh, my goodness.
32:51Is this how you want to start your new term as district attorney of Genoa City?
32:57As Victor's puppet?
33:03Hmm.
33:04What are you doing?
33:05Exercising your right to remain silent, are you?
33:09No problem.
33:10I'll talk.
33:11I'm going to make sure that everybody knows about your corruption.
33:16The entire world, actually.
33:18I will go to every single media outlet and tell them that you are in Victor Newman's back pocket.
33:31Is that how you want to start your new term as district attorney?
33:43This isn't going to work.
33:45What do you think?
33:47Any PR is better than OPR?
33:49That's not correct.
33:51So, you think if you just keep poking at me, I'm going to lose my cool.
33:56I'm not poking.
33:57I'm giving you advice.
33:58Be smart for a change.
33:59Shut your mouth.
34:00I concur with opposing counsel.
34:02She has been bought by Victor.
34:05I want to know what he promised you, Cricket.
34:08How do you sweeten the pot?
34:10Walk away, fellas.
34:11Okay, that is advice.
34:12No, no.
34:13The only place I'm going to be walking is Spectra Charles Media to give them all the dirt and are
34:19bought and paid for district attorney.
34:22Hey, I am doing my job.
34:24You can't fault me for that.
34:27Try me.
34:29Okay.
34:30Okay.
34:31Make good on your threats.
34:34I promise you I will not only defend my personal integrity, but the integrity of my office.
34:40I'll sue you for defamation and win.
34:44So, you'll not only be in prison.
34:48You'll be broke.
34:54I just ran into Audra at the cafe.
34:56It wasn't planned.
34:58Okay, she actually is the one who sold me on those Zen teas.
35:01I told her how stressed you were, and she could clearly see that I was wound tight.
35:06Oh, I see.
35:08Yeah, and it was lucky that I did.
35:10She witnessed while I went down.
35:12Oh, the fight between you and Matt.
35:14Yes.
35:14Yeah, there were other people around, but she was right there.
35:17Yeah, because she always seems to have a way of being in the wrong place at the wrong time.
35:24I am not a fan of Audra Charles at all.
35:29But I agree.
35:30I'm glad that she was there, another set of eyes on Matt.
35:34Yeah, plus she confirmed that he was acting like he didn't know who he was.
35:39Great.
35:39And that is good to know.
35:42She probably stopped things from escalating.
35:46You know what?
35:47Now that we're talking about it, I should probably thank her for making those calls.
35:51And maybe check in on her.
35:53She may be shaking up.
35:55Good idea.
35:55Plus, see if she remembers anything else.
35:58Yeah.
36:05I didn't realize that you hadn't eaten today.
36:08Yeah.
36:09I think I just got like a little blood sugar or something.
36:12Well, isn't that something that you should keep an eye on with the addiction?
36:19My blood sugar?
36:21Halt.
36:23You know, don't get too hungry, angry, lonely, tired.
36:27I saw it on a poster at the clinic we took Connor to.
36:31Yeah.
36:31Yeah.
36:32I remember something about that.
36:36Why don't I go inside and get you a sandwich or something?
36:40Yeah.
36:41Okay.
36:42Great.
36:42I'll take a sandwich.
36:43Thanks.
36:45Be right back.
36:46Oh, I'm sorry.
36:53Okay.
36:55What?
