00:04Hey, Holden. You're back.
00:07Um, how's Malcolm?
00:09Well, he just got released from the hospital today.
00:12Wow, already. That's a good sign.
00:16Yeah, I just got up a call with Lily and my mom, and it looks like he's come through with
00:21flying colors.
00:22That is great news.
00:32Hello, Lily.
00:32Hello.
00:34There's an open seat.
00:36Uh, well, there's an open one here, too.
00:39Sure, but it's not as good as this one.
00:41I happen to be very good at picking the very best table.
00:45Oh, okay. Well, I can't resist the best table.
00:49You can't.
00:52You look happy.
00:53I am happy. I got some amazing news.
00:58Malcolm is being released today.
01:01That is amazing.
01:02I'm very happy for Malcolm and for you.
01:06It's amazing. I feel like I couldn't have dreamed of a better scenario.
01:12I've dreamed.
01:14What? What does that look? Are you okay?
01:17Yes. No, I just, that, that feeling you get when you have a dream about somebody, and then you remember
01:23it, and you run into them in real life.
01:25Did you have a dream about me?
01:27Was it good?
01:29Or was it bad?
01:30It was very good.
01:37What is it?
01:38It's a group text from Maddie and Charlie.
01:42So, what are you waiting for? Read it.
01:46I'm nervous. I don't want to.
01:48Can you do it for me?
01:57You're going to want to read this.
01:58It's good.
02:01It's good.
02:38Thanks, bud.
02:39Finally, Newman Enterprises is back in the hands of the Newmans.
02:44You must be so relieved.
02:46Yeah, he's not the only one.
02:48No, it's hit the whole family.
02:50Yeah, maybe everyone can find their way back to some sort of normal.
02:54That is the plan.
02:56I know one person who for sure isn't happy about this.
03:02Phyllis.
03:02I can't believe she finally gave in and turned Newman back over to Victor.
03:08Have you talked to her?
03:10How's she handling it?
03:18Hey.
03:20Thank you for agreeing to see me.
03:23Well, you made it sound like it was life or death, yet you are all smiles.
03:27Yeah.
03:28Yeah.
03:29Uh, I ordered some coffee for you.
03:32Have a seat.
03:34Why don't you tell me what this is all about before I decide if I'm going to stick around or
03:40not?
03:40Oh, trust me.
03:42I think you're going to want to stick around to hear what I have to say.
03:47I gave Newman Enterprises back to Victor and his family.
03:54Sure you had all night to reflect upon the things that you've done in your past?
04:01All night.
04:05It's like a long waking nightmare.
04:10All these bits and pieces and flashes of memories of all the horrible and vicious things that I've done.
04:16I mean, what really haunts me is that I don't understand why.
04:22I don't know why I would do all those things.
04:27So you do remember all the despicable things you have done to people.
04:33But you don't remember what motivated you?
04:37No, I don't.
04:40I can't imagine what would drive anybody to be that kind of a person.
04:47What happens to me now?
05:01Why don't you read it to me?
05:04It's like, hey, Dad.
05:09It was really cool what you did for Uncle Malcolm.
05:12We're very proud of you.
05:16They haven't called me Dad in a long time.
05:20I miss that.
05:22I know you've been waiting for that for a long time.
05:27And I'm really happy for you.
05:29What should I say to that?
05:30Should I just tell them how much that means to me?
05:32Should I see if all the three of us can get together?
05:37Like, see if they want to get on a video call or something?
05:45Well, I don't want them to think that I'm trying to control their reactions and stuff.
05:53I want them to know that I'm learning to just, you know, be cool.
05:58You know, take life as it comes.
05:59Well, I think that's why they're coming around.
06:02Because they can feel the change in you that's genuine.
06:06You think?
06:08Helping Malcolm is something the old Kane would have done.
06:12The dad they knew and loved for years.
06:16That's the man they were missing.
06:19And that's the man that I see sitting across from me right now.
06:27Phyllis is completely rocked.
06:29I don't think I've seen her this thrown off her game in a very long time.
06:33I can imagine the turmoil she must be in.
06:37You think I should call Summer?
06:38Get her to check in on her mom?
06:40No, I think you should just let Phyllis handle it.
06:43On another topic, what's going on with Matt?
06:47Gonna be meeting with my dad this morning and we'll finalize that situation.
06:52Good.
06:52Count me in.
06:53I could face that monster again in the cold light of day.
06:57Yeah, now that he's remembered everything, I'd like to do that too.
07:00No, I don't want either one of you having to relive the Matt Clark nightmare for even one more minute.
07:06I promise you, dad and I will take care of Matt.
07:10I know that we talked about this, but I'm still hoping that you will at least consider giving me the
07:17opportunity
07:18to make amends to you and your family for all of the things that I've done.
07:23I have given your request a great deal of thought.
07:28And I've arrived at a decision.
07:32We'll discuss that when Nick has arrived.
07:35Yeah, okay.
07:37Yeah, we'll wait.
07:38I mean, it's a...
07:40It's a big ask.
07:42And I haven't earned the right to ask for anything.
07:46But if you could find it in your heart to maybe let me get a little something to eat,
07:52take a quick shower, rinse off...
08:00You know, you're also known for disappearing suddenly.
08:06Yeah.
08:07I guess I'm asking you to trust me.
08:14I will not let you out of my sight.
08:17Do you understand?
08:21So it's over.
08:34I'll let you out of my sight.
08:45So it's over.
08:48your sister would think it was the right thing to do and we could go back to the way we
08:53were
08:54well i'm i'm glad that she finally did the right thing
09:01glad you're glad it's kind of weird not having a company to run i i had high hopes
09:08i just had a goal to making it something bigger and better than victor newman could ever imagine
09:13but anyway it's over it's gone like that and poof uh kind of makes me sick to my stomach
09:25hang on a second here what exactly is going on because i'm just wondering did you give the
09:33company back because it was the right thing to do or were you forced into giving it up because that's
09:38kind of what it sounds like and i mean if that's the case then we still got a problem here
09:48isn't it crazy that when you when you let go of that thing that you've just been holding on to
09:54so tightly for so long that then you know just seems to find a way to come back to you
10:01that's the last time that i just have to keep reminding myself you got all that from their text
10:06well that was actually the uh my dream and i mentioned i think that's what he was trying to
10:13tell me but it wasn't about our kids it was about us and getting past our issues
10:21so what happened in this dream did we get past our issues i don't know i woke up before it
10:27ended
10:27but that's like real life you can't just skip to the end i know that we have a
10:34a pretty hot kiss though oh you better keep dreaming oh this is nice
10:41and us just having some coffee and joking like the old days yep
10:48will you have breakfast with me um i would love to but i have been summoned to the newman ranch
10:55to see
10:55victor about what i have no idea i'm a little wary all right you want me to go with you
11:02uh no it's
11:04okay i can handle victor yeah i know you can and i know that he has a great deal of
11:08respect for you
11:09well what respect hasn't always helped me in our business ceilings you keep me posted yeah i will how
11:17about it over lunch
11:22it's amazing how this all worked out lily unable to be a donor and then me devon nate not being
11:30a
11:30match the twins either but then kane of all people sounds like the universe knew what it was doing
11:42yeah but it sure threw me a few curveballs a few weeks ago i thought i knew who my father
11:48was
11:48and then i find out that my bio dad is a complete stranger with a deadly illness
11:56unfortunately that is no longer the case thanks to kane
12:03and there's another curveball what you of all people expressing joy over my good fortune who would
12:12have thought um are we going to talk about that hug that you just gave me
12:21i'm not a monster you know god i never said you were
12:26i guess all of this has just brought up everything that happened with amy when i was with nate but
12:35we were afraid she was gonna die when we were taking care of her it was just also heartbreaking
12:44but then you know she she beat the cancer so i guess i just know what this roller coaster feels
12:54like
12:55you still miss your relationship with me i'm in a much better place now life's good you know working
13:02with sally well you know i've always said that if you focus on yourself instead of everyone who you

15:58and everything i thought about you victor
16:02you're being very kind
16:10where's the problem i did exactly what you wanted me to do wait i do i have to prove myself
16:17to you
16:18i did what you were begging me to do for months is that not enough i just i want to
16:24be sincere
16:25see i thought that you would finally come to your senses but it's sounding like you were reluctant like
16:30you were forced into it of course i was reluctant i had to give up my dream daniel i had
16:35to do it oh
16:36my god i did what you and everybody else in this town were wanting me to do the right thing
16:42i did that
16:43why are we arguing about this you just don't get it do you if you only handed back the company
16:50you
16:50stole because you were back to the corner that means that you learned absolutely nothing from this
16:55it means you did not do it because it was the right thing to do why can't both of those
17:00things be true
17:04a new a new shadow group i guess i've been so caught up with everything else but what's still
17:10what's going on well noah posted on social media last night i was just as surprised as you are
17:17but the post got so many likes and comments i have a feeling it's it's gonna be a popular spot
17:24great and from the pictures i saw it looks a hell of a lot like the original
17:30so a uh real walk down memory lane huh if we go
17:36what are you thinking i'm thinking that claire pushed so hard about what happened there with you
17:41dressed up all those memories and and you convinced her to finally let it go yeah and
17:48i promised myself that i would never step away my voice again all right i really don't know how
17:54i feel about this come on come have lunch with me i'll let you pick i'll let you pick where

18:14good at
18:15reading you yeah yeah what wait what happened to you learning about letting go and letting life
18:21happen like what you learned in your dream you're doing the exact opposite yeah that's a lesson that

18:30how badly
18:31you need to see me oh my god okay uh meet me at society in an hour it's a date

19:10how are you feeling i'm good i mean i'm mostly good i can't lie to you uh last night i
19:22was pretty shaky
19:26so i went to a meeting this morning
19:30yeah
19:33it's not easy
19:36you know you walk in you don't know anyone and uh you gotta try real hard not to judge the
19:42people who
19:43are sitting there or
19:46judge yourself for needing to be there
19:50and i really
19:56let this family down
19:58i need to make amends for that
20:03you don't have to make amends i mean
20:07what i wasn't here for you and mom when you needed me the most oh that well
20:15it's a long story different story just know that i feel
20:21very badly
20:24and you have to go to a drug rehab place
20:28you know but this is not your fault it's all the result of what matt talk has done
20:37no dad it's uh it's not
20:42just know that we're here for you again yeah your support means everything to me
20:50all you need to do right now is focus on on getting better
20:57i will i promise
21:00all right
21:03let's talk about why i'm really here
21:06what is the plan for matt clark what are you going to do with him
21:14why do you have to put conditions on this yes i was backed into a corner
21:18and yes i i did the right thing the problem is how far you had to be pushed
21:26uh daniel i did one of the hardest things i've ever had to do
21:31giving back that company it was a company that i i loved i was really really proud of it okay
21:40so which is it are you sorry for the things you did or are you a victimized martyr
21:47i don't who am i talking to i can't win here you've had plenty of chances to win with me
21:54you
21:54just you've refused to be reason i'm sorry did you never hear what i said i did this for you
21:59and
21:59your sister from the start i did this for you i love you so much i love you so much
22:05and all i wanted
22:06was for you and your sister to be proud of me that's what i just wanted you to think i
22:13was a success
22:13that's that's all i don't know why i'm even bothering to help with it
22:33what do i plan to do about matt clark
22:38i've decided what is best for all of us is to keep him close
22:45and we'll find out
22:49if he's sincerely repentant if that is the case
22:56he can be of use for us well what makes you think we can trust him now when we couldn't
23:02before
23:04because i'm going to put him to a test a very serious test
23:11and i will soon find out
23:15if he is sincere and if he's not
23:23we'll crush him
23:27without hesitation
23:30is it really that similar to the original one
23:40no
23:43that's close enough it's going to be strange walking in that place
23:49well you were at the la location more recently than i was
23:54oh showing claire all the sights
23:58true
24:00well was it hard well i didn't think about it at first we were just looking for a place to
24:04dance and
24:05have a future oh really yeah now i think you wanted to be a big shot just whisking her past
24:11the
24:12balance all right yes yeah okay that too so what about you what do you think it will probably bring
24:18up some uncomfortable memories but i am curious were you curious enough to go to the opening sure
24:29that what's got you so intrigued is it the shadow room or is it noah newman
24:39daniel
24:41we couldn't help but overhear some of that phyllis was on a tear which frankly doesn't surprise me
24:51um i've been worried about her ever since i heard that she gave newman back i had a feeling that
24:56that
24:56was going to be a tough transition for her no that's an understatement you know i'm a little
25:01more concerned with how and why she gave it back i just i don't understand why every good deed my
25:09mother does has to be dragged out of her kicking and screaming you sound like my sister or our
25:16sister summer's been giving me an earful i just i wish that for once she could do something just
25:22because it was the right thing to do you have to look at it from her perspective your mother has
25:29deep desire for validation yes some would uh say it's narcissism yes she has a desperate need to uh
25:39be in control especially after what happened to us with martin laurent yeah you know i'm sure that was
25:45horrible for both of you so you have to see that that there's a lot more in play here sharon
25:52i'm sure
25:53there's more at play here but you can't act like my mother wasn't behaving this way before what happened
25:58at the clinic but it all adds up into this perfect storm of inner turmoil i'm just saying a lot
26:06happened
26:06that got her here yeah well you know i wish i could be as charitable as you sharon but sorry
26:11i just can't
26:13so you're saying that even now with everything that your mother has given up you can't find a way to
26:23forgive her hey lily hey matt hello hello nice to see you you too you see
26:40so to what do i owe this pleasure
26:46i just wanted you know that newman enterprises has been returned to me
26:52really phyllis surrendered well that couldn't have been easy she had no choice
27:00but i asked you to come here because now i have a chance to fulfill our agreement
27:07that is i will sign noble chancellor to you
27:21are you ever gonna let go of your obsession with my love life
27:26i'm not the one with the obsession are you implying that
27:29i am come on audra just admit it are you been carrying a bit of a torch for your old
27:35flame
27:36obsessed like i said didn't we just agree that you're on track right now focusing on your career
27:42that's exactly what i'm doing holden yeah but now i see that spark in your eyes whenever you're
27:47around him all right noah is with sienna all right and we both know that she won't like you sniffing
27:52around all right haven't you gotten yourself into enough trouble already do you really need to go
27:58looking for more well i had the paperwork drawn up the attorneys should receive it shortly
28:09provided of course that you still want the company yeah of course i want the company
28:14my kids and i sacrificed a lot for this plan
28:19well thank you victor for keeping your word i'll send you something bye
28:35what the hell dad we worked so hard to get our companies back and you just hand over chancellor
28:41to lily i did what was necessary son so that was part of the deal
28:47for her cooperation in the war against kane she gets chancellor and all she has to do is
28:53convince kane that she and the twins have been kidnapped well she sacrificed a lot you know dad
28:59it wasn't that long ago there isn't anything you wouldn't do to get chancellor back for mom so
29:03she could be in her rightful place running it dad this is going to kill her i feel like a
29:10new man
29:16i hope i hope i'm not interrupting you
29:20you know i wish that i could feel bad for my mother but she is looking for forgiveness that she
29:26hasn't even
29:27begun to earn so you don't think that phyllis has been through a lot lately and maybe you should cut
29:35her a
29:35little bit of slack maybe my mom has a point okay listen i don't know the details of how everything
29:41went down but i could tell you this i know that she didn't give newman back because it was the
29:44right
29:44thing to do she gave it back because she was forced to and she regrets it and that's a problem
29:49because she
29:50still sees herself as the victim in all of this and that's just never going to change well it's
29:54definitely never going to change if everything that she does in her life she's met with the same result
30:00more rejection because she never learns from her mistakes you and summer mean the world to her phyllis
30:09feels like she gave up her dream of a lifetime just to get back in her good graces okay sharon
30:15she's
30:15going to keep making the same mistakes over and over again if she doesn't ever figure out where her
30:20logic went off the rails in the first place well i'm not telling you how you should feel about what
30:26she did or how you should even react i'm just being honest phyllis feels like she has given up a
30:32great
30:32deal and she now deserves all these accolades but if everybody else sees her as some kind of a pariah
30:39then what's ever going to encourage her to make the right choice next time
30:43i'm sorry no i have to cancel our breakfast oh where are you going to find phyllis i'm sure she
30:51you're going to use a friend right now
31:01you
31:07you
31:08you
31:08you
31:08you
31:22you know despite my mother's culpability in all this i am genuinely happy that the newmans
31:29got their company back thank you i'm sure summer is relieved too as she's heard the news yet
31:38i just found out myself i was thinking i should probably give her a call
31:43you think she'll have the same reaction you did
31:48i hope not you know summer and my mom they miss each other they used to be really close it
31:57would
31:58be nice if they could have that again look i can tell every time i talk to summer how much
32:03this is
32:03killing yeah um why don't we talk about something else i want to talk about something good for a
32:11change i heard that you're opening a new spot in town yeah we opened our doors tonight you
32:18gonna come check it out yeah yeah no i'll take you up on that i will i'll see you tonight
32:36hey there hey i i heard about your big opening tonight oh it's a soft opening well words already out
