00:06Hey, what brings you home when in the middle of the day?
00:09Oh, Harrison forgot to sign some work, so I stopped by to pick it up.
00:14Hey, you working from home?
00:15Yeah, pretty much every day.
00:17Probably smart.
00:18Makes it less likely that Patty Williams will pop by to harass you.
00:21Well, at least things are a little quieter on that front.
00:24Really?
00:25Did she finally get the hint and leave town?
00:27No such luck.
00:28Last I talked to Patty, she made it very clear she'll be sticking around.
00:32I wonder how Victor feels about that.
00:34Why would that matter?
00:36He has to know she's a loose cannon.
00:38If I were him, I would want her to disappear so he could keep his hands clean.
00:43Either that, or he is paying her to hang around and cause trouble.
00:48Who knows with that guy?
00:58Okay.
00:59Thank you so much for listening.
01:01He's a good loser.
01:09Have you ever been here?
01:16I wonder if you have to do it.
01:48Oh, my God.
01:51Oh, what a relief that is over.
01:53Pretty good news about Malcolm, though, right?
01:55It is very encouraging.
01:58Come on, Mom.
01:59You can do better than that.
02:00Malcolm sailed through that procedure like a shame.
02:03I'm a doctor, son.
02:04We wait before we celebrate.
02:08Looks like someone didn't want to wait.
02:10Where'd that come from?
02:11Nice.
02:12Oh, wow.
02:13Is that from Claire?
02:16Is it?
02:17Regardless of the outcome, I figured you could all use this.
02:21Of Malcolm.
02:22Oh, my God.
02:23He must have said it before his procedure.
02:25No wonder why he was asking where you two were staying.
02:28I swear, that is so Malcolm.
02:31So, what do you say we follow the man's lead and have some champagne?
02:37Who wants some?
02:38Okay.
02:38I do.
02:39I want some.
02:44You didn't think I could pull this off, did you?
02:47Definitely had my doubts.
02:49You thought I was bluffing when I said I had Matt Clark, didn't you?
02:52Well, I certainly didn't think that you would lie about something like that, but I am curious.
02:58How exactly did you knock out Matt Clark and tie him up on your own?
03:02Come on.
03:03You know me.
03:04When I want something this badly, I'll do anything.
03:07You know that.
03:10This picture.
03:11This is recent.
03:14Uh-huh.
03:16Took it an hour ago.
03:19Don't be so paranoid.
03:22I have this under control.
03:25Famous last words.
03:26Do you know how many times I've said that when it comes to Matt Clark?
03:28And look at me.
03:29I'm still chasing him.
03:30Well, now you've caught him.
03:31No.
03:32I haven't.
03:34I still have no idea where he is.
03:36Well, you get Christine to drop the charges against me, and I'll take you to him.
04:07God, you've got to be so relieved after all of these weeks trying to find a donor.
04:12Not to mention everything that came along with finding a donor.
04:16Are you still angry with me about that?
04:20You did a good thing.
04:21Ma, it's the right thing.
04:23You've been a warrior throughout.
04:25All of this.
04:26A true champion.
04:27Malcolm, I'm proud of you.
04:30Thank you, sir.
04:31It's still going to be a few weeks, though, right?
04:33Yeah, we've got to make sure there's no complications and that Malcolm's body starts producing healthy blood cells.
04:39But you still feel good about everything?
04:43Couldn't have gone any better.
04:45Amazing.
04:49How are you calling?
04:51I am going to call the man who made all of this possible.
05:03Hey.
05:04Did Malcolm pull through okay?
05:06I will let you decide for yourself.
05:10Malcolm is in the homestruck.
05:13Yeah!
05:17Oh.
05:19I don't believe Victor is behind Patty sticking around Genoa City.
05:23Why?
05:24Did he suddenly develop a conscience?
05:26No, that's not going to happen.
05:28But I don't think her decision has anything to do with the old buzzard.
05:32I think she honestly believes that she can make amends to the people she's hurt.
05:37Come on, don't tell me you're buying the whole, I'm sorry, I was a homicidal maniac.
05:41I've changed now act.
05:43She claims to be completely cured.
05:44Come on, you don't really believe her, do you?
05:46No, I don't.
05:47Not for one second.
05:49Whatever this is, is just a lull until her crazy brain comes up with another diabolical scheme to ruin other
05:56people's lives.
05:57It's what she does.
05:58Which you no longer have to be a part of, whatever it is.
06:02Well, we'll see how that plays out.
06:05What does that mean?
06:07Nothing.
06:08It's not important.
06:09Dad?
06:10You're not still planning on using Patty to go after Victor, are you?
06:20You look well.
06:24So do you.
06:31Actually, I didn't come here to exchange pleasantries.
06:36Why did you come?
06:38You certainly have done everything in your power to avoid running into me.
06:43Need I remind you again that you threw me out.
06:48And you have made no effort to reach out to me or to apologize.
06:52Why the hell should I apologize?
06:54Here we go again.
06:56This is nothing I do, this is your fault.
06:57That's right, I forgot.
06:59You're never wrong.
07:00Not this time.
07:02Okay, fine.
07:03Blame me if it makes you feel better.
07:06I don't want to talk about it anymore.
07:08I don't want to have the same argument that goes nowhere.
07:12I'm here for a more important reason.
07:16Our son.
07:21So what did you say to Christine?
07:23What did you say to her?
07:24How did you get her to drop the charges against me?
07:27I offered to trade her back for your freedom.
07:31Why would she want to do that?
07:33Because she's a much bigger catch than you are.
07:36His crimes far outweigh anything you've ever done.
07:40So there'll be a real feather in her cap.
07:43Look at that.
07:44You're actually bothered by the fact that you are no longer public enemy number one.
07:48No, I'm just wondering if I can really trust you.
07:52Fine.
07:52Then talk to Christine.
07:54I'm not talking to Christine.
07:57She'll make the deal, Phyllis.
07:58Okay, what did she say exactly?
08:01She said that?
08:02She'll make the deal?
08:03Not in those exact words, no.
08:05What did she say?
08:07She'll make the deal.
08:08You're going to have to trust me.
08:09I'm going to have to trust you?
08:12You and the rest of your family?
08:14Are you serious right now?
08:16Listen to me.
08:16Listen to me.
08:17If you do this my way, then you get to keep our company.
08:20My company.
08:21It's my company.
08:22Our...
08:22It's my company.
08:25Our company.
08:26And then you can stay out of prison.
08:28If you do it any other way, you could wind up with nothing.
08:33How do I know you're not going to betray me again?
08:37How do I know you're not going to pull a fast one
08:39and let your daddy convince you that he needs to swoop in
08:43and make me give Newman Enterprises back?
08:46I'm not doing this.
08:48No way, Nick.
08:49No way.
08:58Whoa.
09:00Matt?
09:01It's me, Patty.
09:03Open up, please.
09:04Matt, come on.
09:06Matt, come on.
09:09I know you're in there.
09:12Listen, I just want to talk with you.
09:15Help!
09:17Come on.
09:21You have no idea how happy this phone call has made me.
09:25Well, what you did made everyone happy.
09:28I mean, you saved Malcolm's life.
09:32Again.
09:33I was glad to do it.
09:35Well, Malcolm ordered champagne here,
09:38which means that he ordered it before his procedure.
09:40Can you believe that?
09:42Well, that sounds like Malcolm.
09:44You see what a little optimism can do for you?
09:47Yeah, yeah, I'm working on it.
09:50So his doctors are optimistic?
09:53Well, you know, of course they never guarantee anything,
09:56but his team said that everything went perfectly well, so...
10:00Did Charlie make it to the hospital?
10:01Yeah, he did.
10:03And we called Maddie on speaker,
10:05and just so you know,
10:06the kids are very grateful that you did what you did.
10:13So, uh, how long are you going to be in New York?
10:18Well, I have planned on being here until Malcolm was released,
10:22which would be anywhere from two weeks to a month.
10:28That long?
10:33If I can use Patty Williams to go after Victor, yes, I will do it.
10:37Now, she's already admitted to me that he paid her to be on that yacht.
10:41I'm already halfway there.
10:42Halfway there to what?
10:44To proving that this whole mess traces back to Victor's dirty work,
10:48and to hopefully convince Nicky to leave that bastard once and for all.
10:52I thought that might be it.
10:54What, you don't think he deserves it?
10:56Well, of course he deserves it.
10:57But I thought we agreed that I would take the lead in going after Victor,
11:01and you would try to make things right with Mom.
11:03Yeah, well, things change.
11:05What, so there's been no progress on that at all?
11:07No, none.
11:08Zero.
11:09It is why I am working from home,
11:11to make it easier for her to avoid me,
11:14which she seems to prefer.
11:15I'm sorry, Dad.
11:17I see possible breakthroughs,
11:21and she shuts that door.
11:22I'm starting to believe she's never going to get past this.
11:25What am I supposed to do?
11:26I've tried talking to her.
11:28And?
11:29She changes the subject.
11:31Seems like she's trying to avoid me now, too.
11:34So you understand how I feel about going after Victor.
11:38What have I got to lose?
11:40He has already ruined my life.
11:43Maybe he deserves a taste of his own medicine.
11:47Are you aware that Nicholas has become addicted to opioids?
11:53Yeah.
11:54He told me right after he came back from Vegas.
11:57What?
12:00You knew?
12:01And you didn't think to tell me immediately his own mother?
12:05He's a grown boy.
12:07It's after him to tell you.
12:08Okay.
12:11This has to stop.
12:13What has to stop?
12:14This petty quarreling,
12:17arguing about who should beg for forgiveness.
12:21We need to have a truce for our son's sake,
12:26who we both love.
12:29Oh.
12:30So you think I'm capable of love.
12:32Is that it?
12:33I know that you love Nicholas.
12:35I would never doubt that.
12:38That's why I am suggesting that we set our anger aside temporarily
12:42and deal with this as a family.
12:46I happen to know a little something about what Nicholas is going through.
12:50And I know how difficult it will be for him to get to the other side.
12:55So you and I,
12:57we have to be there for him.
13:00Starting today.
13:04Phyllis,
13:05this is the best deal you're going to get.
13:08If you're telling me the truth.
13:10When have you ever known me to lie to you?
13:12Oh,
13:13many times,
13:14Nick.
13:14About something this big?
13:16Yeah,
13:16many times.
13:18Well,
13:18it didn't used to be like that.
13:20There was a time I was the only person you could trust.
13:23Is that completely gone?
13:24Yeah,
13:24it is.
13:26It is completely gone.
13:30I mean,
13:31after you and your family declared war on me,
13:34I think it is pretty much gone.
13:35You stole my father's life's work right out from under him.
13:39Is it still about that?
13:42No.
13:44Not for me,
13:44it's not.
13:46Matt Clark has always been my priority.
13:48Getting him out of commission is the only thing I care about.
13:51Everything else,
13:53everything is secondary.
13:55Now,
13:55you can believe that or not,
13:56I don't care,
13:57but I promise you the clock is ticking.
14:00Okay,
14:00I get it.
14:00I get it.
14:01So how's this going to work?
14:02What do you mean?
14:04How does it work?
14:05I mean,
14:06you said that you're going to get the charges against me dropped.
14:09You're going to make Christine do that.
14:11So what exactly needs to be done to make that happen?
14:14What you do is you hand Matt Clark to Christine,
14:18and she arranges things for you.
14:20She arranges things for,
14:22are you serious right now?
14:23What are you talking about?
14:24Are you serious?
14:26Why didn't you tell me this in the first place?
14:29You would have saved us both time and aggravation.
14:32I'd give you Matt Clark,
14:34and I put my life in Christine's hands?
14:38Absolutely not.
14:39That is never,
14:41ever going to happen.
14:44Thank you so much.
14:46I must have lost my key.
14:48I'm not supposed to.
14:50Oh, please.
14:51Please.
14:52There will be a generous tip involved.
15:02Oh!
15:03Oh, my God.
15:04Oh, I'll call security.
15:05No, no, no, no.
15:07Do not call security.
15:09Um, oh, hey, sweetheart.
15:13Sweetheart, you, you, you, you should have told me that the gag was too tight.
15:17Mm-hmm.
15:17I won't be able to hear our seats more.
15:20Oh.
15:21Uh, uh, you know,
15:23my boyfriend and I,
15:25we like to do kinky things together.
15:28Um, really, really sorry to involve you in our role-playing.
15:36You understand, don't you?
15:38Not sure I do.
15:40Oh, great.
15:46Oh, my God.
15:48Oh, my God.
15:50Oh, my God.
15:52Oh, dear.
15:54Oh, no.
15:58What?
15:58What happened to you?
16:02Phyllis.
16:12I, I, I told you not to trust Phyllis.
16:16Yeah, well, obviously, I should have listened to you.
16:18Oh.
16:19How did she tie you up like that?
16:21I have no idea.
16:22I was standing there, and, and, and we were talking,
16:25and then I felt this knock on the back of my head,
16:27and then I was the way that you found me.
16:29Oh.
16:30I, you okay?
16:32I'll live.
16:33I guess.
16:34I suppose I'll live.
16:35All right, you know, pardon me for saying this,
16:37but, uh, you should be happier about that.
16:40A crack on your head could have killed you.
16:43Maybe that would have been for the best.
16:46Oh, my God.
16:47Why, why are you talking like this?
16:49I, I found out some pretty horrible things about myself.
16:53From Phyllis?
16:54Yeah, from Phyllis.
16:55Mm-hmm.
16:56All right, that's your problem right there.
16:59Why would you believe her?
17:02I'm not really sure, but it would make sense.
17:05It would explain why the Newmans are after me the way that they are.
17:09Well, what sort of things did you do?
17:12Yeah, I don't want to get into all that right now.
17:14It's just, you understand that there's enough there that somebody would really want to hurt me back or worse.
17:22How did all that turn into you bound and gagged on the floor?
17:28I told Phyllis that there was no way I was ever going to be able to make amends,
17:31and that the best thing for everybody is if I just leave, too.
17:34And she didn't go for that.
17:36No, she started arguing with me, but then she changed her mind and said she would help me leave,
17:39and then I turned my back on her, and, well, now you're all caught up.
17:44Yeah, yeah, that's a good thing I stopped by then.
17:48Yeah, it is.
17:50Phyllis, I just don't understand.
17:53I really thought Phyllis was on my side.
17:57The only side Phyllis is ever on is her own.
18:03You are not seeing the big picture.
18:05Oh, I am. I'm seeing the big picture.
18:07Big and bright in Technicolor.
18:11I give Christine Matt Clark.
18:14She gives me an orange jumpsuit.
18:16Phyllis, listen to me.
18:17I am not going to let you screw this up for me just because you have this petty feud with
18:22Christine.
18:22No, no, no.
18:23That petty feud is a lifetime of hatred, Nick, and it's mutual.
18:31I'm not handing over my life to someone who would love to see me locked up for the rest of
18:37my life.
18:38All right.
18:40What's it going to take?
18:41What do you need?
18:43Assurances.
18:44What kind of assurance?
18:46I need it in writing.
18:48The charges are dropped.
18:50In writing to my attorney.
18:53All right?
18:53Then we'll talk about me delivering the goods.
18:56Shh.
18:57Never going to go for that.
18:58Well, that's unfortunate.
19:00That really is.
19:01Those are my terms.
19:02Take it or leave it.
19:07So that didn't come out right?
19:09What didn't come out right?
19:12Just that, you know, I didn't mean to, I'm not putting pressure on you to come home.
19:16Oh, is that what that was?
19:20Look, if you need to be with Malcolm for a month, then that's what you need to do.
19:24Okay, I just, you know, it seemed like a long time for you to be away.
19:29That's all.
19:30Okay, well, if you had let me finish, which you never do, I would have told you that I told
19:36Malcolm I was going to stay, and he said absolutely not, that I needed to be home.
19:41So you're coming home?
19:43Yes, I'm coming back.
19:45When?
19:46I don't know.
19:48Why?
19:49No reason.
19:52Kane.
19:54The sooner you get home, the sooner you'll know.
19:57Well, I better get moving then.
20:00Tell Holden and Stephanie I said goodbye.
20:03You can do that yourself.
20:05You guys, Kane's on speaker.
20:08Oh!
20:09Hey, Kane, how you doing?
20:10Hey, hanging in there.
20:13The better news is, sounds like Malcolm's doing well.
20:16That's what it's all about.
20:18Again, thank you, Kane.
20:20You're a good man.
20:21I'm trying to be.
20:23I'll let you know when I'm headed back home.
20:26Okay, okay, great.
20:27See you soon.
20:29Bye.
20:29Bye.
20:31Oh, that smile's a little different than what it was earlier.
20:35It is.
20:36I wonder why that is.
20:39I wonder why that is.
20:43Hey, stories show up unannounced, but we need to talk.
20:53I'm obviously as concerned of a Nicholas as you are, but I think he's handling the situation.
21:00Is he going to meetings?
21:02Is he going to meetings?
21:02Does he have a sponsor?
21:06I have no clue.
21:08The drugs may be out of his system, but I guarantee you the cravings are still there.
21:14And it is so easy to slip in early sobriety, and it can't help him knowing that his parents are
21:22at odds like this.
21:26So what do you think we should do?
21:28So what do you think we should do?
21:28We make peace.
21:30We present a united front.
21:33And who knows, if we do that long enough, maybe we'll find a way to end this war for good.
21:52Obviously, I would do anything to help Osana, yeah?
22:00It needs to be pointed out that this war, as you call it, is your doing.
22:07That is your opinion.
22:08I am not going to apologize for taking back what is mine.
22:12No matter who gets hurt.
22:14Who gives a damn about Jackass Abbott?
22:16Do you think I care?
22:19Jack is just at the top of the list.
22:24Are you suggesting I would hurt someone in my family?
22:27All right, okay.
22:28We're talking in circles again.
22:30If you cannot put your son's welfare above your own precious ego, you have problems.
22:35That's nonsense.
22:36And you are just as stubborn and vindictive as ever.
22:40You bet.
22:41Nicholas isn't the only one in denial about how big his problem is.
22:44I'm going to help him with his.
22:46Good luck dealing with yours.
22:48There's the door.
22:49I'll be just fine.
22:51Don't you worry about me.
22:57So we're going to go back to the hospital.
22:59Do you want to ride?
23:00I will join you there later.
23:02Claire called and said she wants to show me something.
23:05Why?
23:06Should we stay and see what it is?
23:09That would be a hard no.
23:11I'm still trying to figure out what's going on between you two.
23:14I know.
23:15It's like, are they?
23:16Aren't they?
23:17We are friends.
23:19Oh, yeah.
23:19Sure you are.
23:20We're good friends.
23:21Even better.
23:22It's not what you think.
23:24Oh, really?
23:25So what are we thinking then, huh?
23:27Do you want to tell us?
23:30Oh, my, Claire.
23:32We were just talking about you.
23:34Really?
23:35Yeah.
23:36My son will explain.
23:37Come on in.
23:38Yeah.
23:39Come on in.
23:40Okay.
23:42Well, have fun, you guys.
23:45You two behave yourselves.
23:46Okay?
23:47Good.
23:48You done?
23:49Yep, yep.
23:51What was all that about?
23:53You don't want to know.
23:57Is this a bad time?
23:59Nope.
24:00Just, uh, just doing a little bit of reading.
24:02What's up, Billy?
24:03What brings you by?
24:05I need to know what you're planning for your defense.
24:08In this case, with you and Phyllis.
24:10Honestly, I haven't really thought much about it.
24:13What do you mean you haven't thought much about it?
24:16Some other stuff came out.
24:18Okay.
24:19Well, uh, these emails that the DA has.
24:23Yeah, they're all bogus.
24:24I understand that, but my name is all over them.
24:27Have you been arrested?
24:28No.
24:29Not yet.
24:31But I have a feeling that whatever happens to me is going to be directly connected to what happens with
24:35you.
24:37So, I'm asking you for a favor.
24:40Because we might be in this together.
24:43Now, you and I could have eaten lunch at home.
24:46Need to get out of there every once in a while.
24:49Nikki.
24:50Hi.
24:51Hi.
24:52Scott.
24:53Uh, care to join us?
24:55Oh, no, no.
24:56I don't want to retreat.
24:57Um, you know, this is a work call.
25:00Let me take it.
25:02Here, have a seat for a second.
25:06Hi.
25:08Everything's okay?
25:09Something wrong?
25:15I don't even know where to start.
25:17You start anywhere you want to.
25:23Nicholas is addicted to drugs.
25:27What?
25:28After the accident, he had so much pain.
25:32Wait, pills?
25:36No.
25:37Oh, God.
25:39Is he getting help?
25:40He says he is.
25:42I, I don't know.
25:44I just feel so helpless and sad for him and guilty.
25:50Wait, wait, wait.
25:50Don't go there.
25:52How can I not, Jack?
25:53It's my curse.
25:55My affliction has been passed down to myself.
25:58You and I both know it is far more complicated than that.
26:01In any given situation, someone can become addicted.
26:05Look at me.
26:06That's why I knew you would understand.
26:09It does no good to blame yourself.
26:12I know.
26:13I know it doesn't.
26:14Okay, and I hope it goes without saying that I want to help.
26:18Help you, help Nicholas in any way I can whenever you need me.
26:22After all the pain that Victor put you and your family through.
26:26You are not Victor.
26:27Neither is Nicholas.
26:30Besides, in a situation like this, you put your grievances aside.
26:33You focus on what's right in front of you.
26:34And for us, that is helping Nicholas beat this thing.
26:38That is what I thought, too.
26:41Have you talked to Victor about this?
26:43It's as much good as it ever does.
26:47When I brought up a truce, at first he did seem willing to go along with it.
26:55But he still refuses to take any blame for anything.
27:00I'm sorry that happened to you.
27:03But I can't tell you I'm surprised by any of it.
27:09I'm sorry Phyllis hurt you, Matt.
27:12It really is best that you know the person that you're dealing with.
27:17And she was just out there using you.
27:19Using me?
27:20How was she using me?
27:22As a bargaining chip.
27:23As a what?
27:25I just found out that Phyllis had been arrested for stealing the Newman's Company.
27:33Very long, complicated story.
27:37Don't need to go into details.
27:38But my guess is she was going to turn you in in exchange for them dropping the charges.
27:46You can do something like that?
27:48In a heartbeat.
27:49I mean, it's the only explanation that makes any sense.
27:56Don't forget you just met Phyllis.
27:58I have known her for decades.
28:01And trust me.
28:03She is more than capable of doing that.
28:08Or worse.
28:11I mean, Matt, maybe next time you won't latch on to someone you just met.
28:19Just met you, Patty.
28:22Well, that's why we need to spend time and get to know one another.
28:29And you know what, Matt?
28:31You will understand that I am the only friend that you will ever need.
28:38Phyllis, I need you to work with me here a little bit.
28:42Well, that's what I've been trying to do, Nick.
28:44What do you think?
28:45I can't just leave a magic wand and get Christine to drop all the charges without her having Matt in
28:51custody.
28:51Right, right.
28:52Well, then we're wasting our time.
28:54Phyllis, please.
28:55No, no, no, no.
28:57I will give you Matt, Clark, when you get these charges dropped and not a second sooner.
29:27I'm just so happy for all of you.
29:30Especially Malcolm.
29:31That man is one cool customer, I tell you.
29:34He spent most of the time trying to cheer us up before we went in.
29:39You do that too, you know?
29:40Nah, nothing like he does.
29:42Yeah, you've been a cheerleader for me many times.
29:45So you're saying Malcolm's gift is renitary?
29:48Why not?
29:49Huh.
29:51So where'd you go this morning?
29:52I went a lot of places.
29:54I ended up in the East Village.
29:55I got a little bit lost.
29:57That is easy to do, first time in the city.
29:59And I ended up at this amazing vintage store.
30:02And I got you a little present.
30:05Claire, you shouldn't have done that.
30:07I had to, because it shouted your name.
30:22Look, I don't know what to tell you, Billy.
30:24If there's any reference to you in those emails, then it's just as bogus as the rest of it.
30:28Okay, now can you prove that?
30:31Phyllis and I never communicate like that.
30:33It doesn't matter.
30:34You don't need a genius lawyer to argue that this time you did.
30:36Well, then they should have accused us of being stupid along with the other trumped-up charges.
30:40Is it funny to you, Kane?
30:41Yeah, it's kind of hilarious.
30:42I'm not laughing, all right?
30:45Phyllis stole the company from Victor.
30:47We know that.
30:47That is not trumped-up.
30:48Yes, she did.
30:49Okay, and the old man would like nothing more than to add my name to this mess and take me
30:54down with it.
30:54And I can't have that.
30:56Not right now.
30:58I'm sorry, Billy.
31:01I'm sorry that it happened, and I'm sorry that you got mixed up in it.
31:03I wish that there was more I could do to help.
31:05You're sorry, Kane?
31:08Nothing more you can do?
31:11So you develop the ultimate weapon with this AI program, and you got no defense for it?
31:16Not in the real world, not in the court?
31:19That seems to me you're screwed.
31:21Now I gotta figure out a way to make sure I don't go down with you.
31:26There was a moment when I thought things had changed.
31:31With Victor?
31:33Yeah, it was like he wanted to say something, but ultimately couldn't.
31:41And then that moment was gone forever.
31:44Well, I'm sorry to say I don't think that's gonna change until you go crawling back to him to beg
31:48for forgiveness.
31:50Which I will not do.
31:51Which you should never do.
31:54God, I don't understand this, man.
31:57I never will.
31:58He can't put his colossal ego aside for the sake of his own son.
32:02Is he really that petty and vindictive?
32:04You don't have to answer that.
32:07And that he isn't even considering you.
32:09He has to know.
32:11This would be a pretty significant trigger for your own addiction.
32:15I am not going down that road.
32:17I know where it ends.
32:18It doesn't matter.
32:19He doesn't care.
32:20I mean, that's the whole point.
32:22What he wants is more important to him than anything else in the world.
32:26Nikki, I...
32:28I wasn't gonna tell you this.
32:30But I think you need to know just how selfless a bastard you are married to.
32:35No, Jack, you don't have to.
32:37No, no, I need to say this.
32:39I cornered Patty Williams the other day.
32:42Told her I would go to the police if she didn't admit that she put drugs in that whiskey on
32:49the boat.
32:50Why would you believe anything that woman says?
32:53Ordinarily, I would not.
32:54Not a word.
32:55But I know Patty.
32:57And she was scared.
32:59And for some reason, she wants to prove to the world that she is a changed woman.
33:03So she told me the truth.
33:08Victor is behind all of it.
33:10He planned the whole thing.
33:13Bringing Patty to town.
33:14Having me abducted.
33:16Held hostage in that yacht.
33:19Having her serve me alcohol that he knew had drugs in it.
33:24He paid her to do that.
33:27Paid her handsomely.
33:28The same as he does anyone who does his dirty work for him.
33:32That's who your husband is.
33:35That's Victor Newman.
33:49Hold on.
33:51Oh, damn it.
33:53Damn it.
34:00What the hell is going on here?
34:10Did it meet as...
34:13So I'm guessing Matt was here.
34:15And now he's not.
34:17Nice job.
34:18He was here when I left.
34:20Well, that doesn't do either one of us any good, does it?
34:22I'm telling you right now, if you don't find Matt before the police or my family does,
34:27then all bets are off, Phyllis.
34:29Then you better start getting used to the idea of a prison cell.
34:37Do you like it?
34:38Like it?
34:39I love it.
34:40It's perfect.
34:42It's amazing, isn't it, Trinor?
34:43Yeah.
34:55I knew it would be a perfect fit.
34:59I was thinking the same thing.
35:15There's not much more I can say, other than I'm sorry.
35:19If I could do it all over again, I would.
35:20I promise you, Billy.
35:21I would destroy that AI program before it ever left the lab.
35:24Well, it's too late for that, isn't it?
35:27So now our only option is to poke holes in the DA's case.
35:31Okay, well, if you have any suggestions, I'm open to them.
35:36There might be a way to save both of us.
35:40That means we're going to have to work together.
35:46This isn't over.
35:47It's not over.
35:48Just tell me what happened.
35:51Patty Williams is what happened, Nick.
35:54Yeah.
35:54Patty Williams?
35:55Yeah.
35:55Patty Williams.
35:56You know how she got here?
35:58Your dad brought her in town.
36:01The woman who nearly killed our daughter.
36:04Yeah, I'm going to deal with that later.
36:05Just tell me, what does she have to do with Matt?
36:07She befriended him.
36:08She knows that he's here.
36:10She's probably trying to get to me through him.
36:12And you think Matt went with her?
36:14Yeah, I do.
36:15I do.
36:17He's very easily manipulated.
36:18He doesn't know who he is.
36:21What would Patty want from Matt?
36:23I don't know.
36:25But she has an angle.
36:26She has an angle.
36:27They're both lunatics.
36:30So, stop getting mad at me.
36:33If we find Patty Williams, we will find Matt Clark.
36:42Victor did all of that?
36:45Oh, he did a lot more.
36:46It turns out he orchestrated Diane and Billy and Kyle finding out about the marina and the boat I was
36:53on.
36:54How was he able to do that?
36:56By planting the permit tag on the car used to abduct me.
37:00He knew one of them would be smart enough to look at the security footage and figure it out.
37:07In the hopes that Diane would find you with Patty.
37:10He thought of everything.
37:12Every little detail.
37:14He knew I had nothing to do with you losing your company.
37:20It didn't matter to him.
37:24Nicholas's addiction doesn't matter.
37:27Your happiness doesn't matter to him.
37:30That's who he is.
37:33He knew I had nothing to do with you losing your company.
37:50He knew I had nothing to do with you losing your company.
