00:05Hey, you're still here.
00:07Hey, yes.
00:07Are you having fun?
00:08Yes, so me and everyone else.
00:11I mean, look at this.
00:11The turnout is great.
00:13You should be so pleased.
00:14Yeah, yeah.
00:15I wasn't really sure what to expect, but I've been blown away.
00:19Claire seems to be having fun.
00:21Yeah, she certainly is.
00:23You have reservations about her date?
00:27No, I mean, you know, I trust Claire's judgment.
00:30I'm a mother, so, of course, I don't ever want to see her hurt.
00:35My parents have the same concerns about Sienna, but with every day that passed,
00:39I think they're starting to realize how good she is for me.
00:44Here you go.
00:45One lavender French 75.
00:48It's my second.
00:49These are delicious, by the way.
00:51Oh, I'm glad you like it.
00:53Oh, by the way, I didn't have a chance to introduce myself.
00:55I'm Sienna Bacall.
00:56I run the place with Noah.
00:57Oh, my God.
00:58So nice to meet you.
00:59This place is amazing.
01:00Clearly, you guys know what you're doing.
01:02You are.
01:03Hey.
01:04Wow.
01:06You look amazing.
01:10I'm glad you can make it.
01:12Isn't this place great?
01:13Yeah.
01:13What are you doing?
01:14What do you got there?
01:15Drink.
01:15What, Moose?
01:16Well, you're not the only one to try new things, you know?
01:20What?
01:20Like, hiring me as your CEO.
01:22Well, that was business.
01:25This is...
01:26I invited you to be my date.
01:30Okay.
01:33What?
01:38What?
01:42How are you doing?
01:43What?
01:47You're not the only one.
01:50Oh, yeah.
01:50I was thinking there.
01:58What?
01:59What?
02:00What?
02:00What?
02:00What?
02:08I was wondering if you were going to be able to make it.
02:10Hey.
02:11It's going to be cool, man.
02:12Yeah.
02:13Cool.
02:14Oh, there he is.
02:16This place is awesome.
02:18It is so impressive.
02:19Congratulations.
02:22I need to go help myself with the overflow so you all have a good time.
02:26That's an order.
02:27Okay.
02:27Okay.
02:28Come here you.
02:29Come here.
02:30Bring it in, son.
02:31Mwah.
02:32I love this place.
02:34I love the vibe.
02:35Very, very cool.
02:37I'm just glad that you're in one piece.
02:39What's that supposed to mean?
02:40Well, you know, I've been calling you.
02:42I've been texting you.
02:42And I've got absolutely nothing back from you.
02:45So you pull a disappearing act like that, you really know how to make a guy worry.
02:50Oh.
02:51I'm sorry disappearing in the mirror?
02:53That nut job Patty Williams is back in town, isn't she?
02:56Oh, so you thought she could...
02:57Well, wait, wait.
02:59Supposedly she's with Marmode.
03:00Didn't she set a thing for you?
03:02You know what?
03:02That was...
03:03That was a long time.
03:05Well, you know, that psycho nearly killed my sister.
03:07So as far as I'm concerned, Patty's back in town.
03:10Everyone in Genoa City should be on high alert.
03:16Thanks.
03:18Roger.
03:20Nate.
03:27Hi.
03:27Can I get a coffee with cream?
03:31Why aren't you with your family at the shadow room opening?
03:36Uh, I didn't feel like a party or the club scene tonight.
03:40You're looking elegant, so I assume you did go.
03:45For a moment.
03:47Turns out it wasn't really my scene tonight either.
03:50Mm-hmm.
03:51Let me guess.
03:52Somebody pissed you off.
04:05I'm sorry I got under your skin.
04:07No, you're not.
04:09That's what you wanted to do all along, and I walked right into it.
04:12Do you think that this was some sort of setup?
04:15I think it was a cruel joke meant to cause pain, Adam.
04:18I was not trying for that.
04:21No?
04:21Really?
04:22No.
04:22Hey, Billy, is there a world where we get along?
04:24Where do you think that conversation's gonna lead, huh?
04:26You know, I'm just...
04:27I'm sorry that you actually think that I'm that cruel.
04:29That's where you're wrong.
04:30It's not cruelty.
04:32This is your instinct.
04:33It's a wounded animal lashing out.
04:36Not a survival.
04:38It's your nature.
04:40You are just as wounded as I am, Adam.
04:44Don't ever mention Delia to me again.
04:58Hey.
05:00No.
05:01No.
05:02Hi.
05:10I know that look.
05:12What's wrong?
05:16Um, I, uh, made the mistake of trying to find some common ground with Billy.
05:25You can guess how that went.
05:27It exploded spectacularly.
05:36This is exactly what I needed.
05:38A gin sour?
05:40No.
05:41I was thinking more along the lines of quality time for you.
05:45i mean it's been a day my kids are proud of me you asked me out on an actual day
05:52i don't think it gets any better ah he's winning cheers
05:58well you missed malcolm and stephanie he was having a good time but he ended up leaving because
06:02he wasn't doing it so he went back to the athletic club always seemed like he was in good spirits
06:06today yeah so are you gonna tell me what you guys were talking about earlier what do you think i'm
06:17rolling out on you oh definitely listen i am sorry for being off the greener for a while but had
06:25nothing to do with patty williams okay it was a mistrain castle flight lost cell phone recover
06:31cell phone and dead battery one two maybe three times i was a little nervous myself
06:36hey you've been on tour with me before you know what it's like you've got a front seat to crazy
06:41yeah and that was the only reason i didn't come out and search for you myself okay well i am
06:45here
06:46and i'm so glad we're all together so that i can do this in person do what well i have
06:56made a big
06:57decision thank you would you care to join me i i hope some of our friendship is still intact
07:10enough enough i guess to have a silver conversation over coffee
07:20so tell me what went wrong at the shadow room what makes you think something went wrong
07:26besides the fact that trouble seems to follow you around
07:29not by choice just by actions
07:35i i had some fun but the bartender didn't leave a lot to be desired
07:40she made me maybe the worst jungle bird i've ever tasted
07:46nothing spoils an evening like a bad jungle bird
07:51which is what exactly it's dark rum campari pineapple juice a lime juice and when it's done correctly
08:00it's a marara syrup to sweeten but sienna she used simple syrup and light rum it was terrible
08:08sienna
08:11can we not discuss my lousy drink and talk about something else please
08:17i saw malcolm at the opening he looked good
08:22he seems to be strong after the transplant
08:26oh it's um pretty amazing how it all worked out
08:31it's kind of a miracle no
08:34it's just good solid medicine at work
08:39do you miss that
08:42you must on some level
08:47thank you
08:49what would possess you to even engage in common ground to talk with billy
08:54i mean i can't think of two people who hate each other more
08:58i told him that that hatred was exhausting
09:04and i'm sure that surprises you
09:06you know how i feel about the battles you two constantly wage against each other
09:10you hate it even though
09:14oftentimes you take billy's side
09:16excuse me
09:17only when it's warranted
09:19meaning when you think i'm wrong
09:22exactly
09:27i don't know what propelled me to bring it up i just i guess seeing where my father and nikki
09:33have gotten because of his hatred for jack it just has me concerned
09:41that what
09:43that the same thing could happen to us
09:47exactly
09:49well you're not wrong
10:00you think that my battles with billy could ultimately lead to our splitting up
10:05you just said you feared it
10:08i was hoping that you would counter with
10:13you know that could never happen
10:15we love each other too much
10:17we do we love each other very much
10:19but that's never stopped you from attacking billy when you wanted to
10:22when you felt the urge
10:23however
10:24i am really proud of you for trying to make peace
10:29well it wasn't that cut and dry
10:32you know i asked billy some questions and he got defensive
10:36and then the conversation took a turn where i should have anticipated it was going to go
10:40because it's a turn that it often takes
10:45to delia
10:47how did you know
10:50it's not hard to guess
10:52that's pretty much at the core of what drives you both in regards to each other
10:56yeah that's pretty much what billy said
11:01do you have any idea how much
11:03how hard it is to this day for me to carry that
11:08i do
11:12helping connor heal
11:14and in a lot of ways was my saving grace
11:16and having you
11:18back in my life
11:20look i just
11:21i don't ever want the hatred that billy feels
11:24because of delia
11:25to come between you and me
11:27it won't
11:28if you don't let it
11:33well i extended a tentative olive branch to billy
11:37but he's not buying it
11:38you know it's a two-way street chelma
11:40no adam
11:44it's not
11:50the idea of going back to medicine full time has been on my mind lately
11:56because of the ordeal with malcolm and actually off some talks i've had with holden's mother
12:03nothing at all definitive
12:07i enjoy seeing her passion for what she does
12:10i remember it all so well
12:13i imagine business can never really duplicate that feeling
12:19business business is a power rush
12:22oh
12:22the best kind
12:24well almost the best
12:27and medicine is a spiritual rush
12:31yeah you get to play god
12:32no no
12:33that's not what i meant
12:35it's on the inside
12:37the psyche can be energized when you figure out how you can save someone's life
12:43like i said
12:45no no i never allowed myself to go there when i was practicing
12:49i mean
12:51there are way too many variables to allow yourself to be that egocentric
12:56i never subscribe to the idea that all doctors have to be narcissists to be good at what they do
13:02well they just have to be damn good at what they do
13:06exactly
13:07were you
13:08damn good
13:11yeah
13:12i was
13:16would you ever go back if you could
13:20surgery i mean
13:22if
13:24someone somewhere could fix your hand
13:27would that be a game changer
13:31maybe
13:31i'm not sure
13:34but you've thought about it
13:37yeah i have
13:40of course i have
13:50hey how's it going back here
13:51i can help out if you need
13:53oh no what
13:54no no no

15:13okay well tell me that you're not gonna bust my chops
15:16about what may or may not have happened in the house
15:18please
15:19i was gonna ask if you remember if they served the same drinks that they serve at this one
15:24because i just couldn't remember
15:25oh
15:26okay okay
15:27yeah it seems like you're the one who can't let go of the old shadow room
15:31or what may or may not have definitely didn't happen there
15:37yeah
15:37okay
15:42so are you going to tell us what this big decision is that you've made
15:44tell us your best decisions
15:47okay
15:47so
15:49i've decided that i've had enough of planes, trains, buses, hotels, bad food, backstage chaos
15:55and i'm going to retire from the road permanently
15:59yep
16:00so i can spend time in beautiful general city with the people that i love
16:07huh
16:12you're ready to retire?
16:14yeah you the guy who loves to perform who loves the stage and the lights and his fans
16:21i'm not buying it you're not giving it up no way
16:23yes way
16:25you're not going to miss it
16:26look i have been touring for decades all right i need a break and by the way i'm a little
16:32disappointed you two aren't as excited as i am about this whole thing
16:37we are we are we are we are we are we're just skeptical
16:41i mean you can have all this free time on your hands what are you gonna do i don't know
16:46don't we have photography maybe some felting
16:48oh thanks
16:49oh thanks
16:50yeah no i give it a month two months max then he's back on the road
16:56okay do you have as little faith in me as my son does?
17:00i have all the faith in the world in you and i love this idea of you being home with
17:03me
17:04yeah just giving you a hard time
17:05yeah i think it'll be great to have you around more
17:08so you do some felting with me
17:11no
17:13okay
17:15so you told melcom you were in love with me
17:21how did he take it?
17:24not well
17:27he's very grateful that i saved his life but he has serious doubts about me being in yours
17:34well i did tell him that i made you ceo of chancellor
17:39and how did he take that?
17:41well i mean he wasn't thrilled but i think he trusts my instincts
17:46well that sounds like a win
17:50you know what
17:51since you've said yes to the job and we have malcolm's blessing
17:57i think we should go public with your hire
18:01starting tonight
18:12you have no control of billy's feelings or actions or even how he views you
18:20you can't change his hatred or stop his pain
18:25you can only deal with how you react
18:27and i'm really proud of you for trying but
18:31you must have known this was going to fail
18:34there's no finding a common ground
18:39it's about walking away from the fight to begin with
18:43being the better man
18:45it's about being the peaceful man and i know that's hard for you
18:51he thinks that i've buried my feelings about what happened to him
18:55that i've somehow eradicated it from my psyche
18:59it's human nature emotional survival
19:02but i haven't
19:04the feelings are still there
19:07every single day
19:10well if that's true every time those feelings of
19:13hatred rise up try to think about billy
19:17and his feelings of lingering pain
19:21it's easier said than done
19:23okay he puts his walls up too
19:24oh i know
19:27but adam
19:31if we had lost god
19:35would you be able to get over it
19:40or so
19:43then there it is
19:49oh look at us
19:53having a rational conversation about billy abbott that does not end in anger
19:59for now
20:02well how about we had your bets and we don't talk about billy for the rest of the evening
20:07so what we do know despite our best intentions one of us is inevitably going to do something to piss
20:12off the other
20:13true
20:14but you can always walk away before it begins
20:17i promise i will try
20:19and that's all i ask
20:38what's holding you back
20:40if deep down that's what you really want
20:42first of all i'm not sure it's what i really want
20:46and uh secondly i enjoy working with my family
20:50i feel good we've overcome the anger and distrust after what happened between us and chancelortus
20:58yeah well i doubt they've gotten over their anger and distrust of me
21:03nor have you completely
21:06i mean i'm sitting here with you aren't i
21:10we're having coffee and talking sibling
21:15okay
21:17yes
21:20but here's the way i see it
21:24everybody is ambitious
21:27okay a streak of fruitlessness is par for the course
21:31that's just the duality of people
21:34to survive you just
21:36you figure out how to strike a balance
21:42i don't regret the things that i've had to do
21:45to compete in the in a world where the odds were against me
21:50sometimes that meant that i had to lie
21:54deceive and did i sometimes go too far absolutely
21:59but i figure the alternative is a lot worse
22:05wow that is a pretty rich justification for being bad
22:11it's looking out for yourself really being bad
22:16look i'm i'm sorry that i deceived you about working with victor
22:22i did the wrong thing for the right reasons
22:25but i never meant to hurt you
22:29that's the thing about deception
22:31it always comes out and it always ends up hurting
22:39well you're here aren't you
22:42not hating me
22:44well at least not completely
22:48a time and forgiveness they work well together don't you think
22:55i believe you're a different person than you were
23:00maybe working with sally you finally found your footing
23:04you don't have to work as hard to prove yourself now
23:08i hope that holds i really do
23:12oh it will
23:15i've changed i have finally found some solid ground to stand on
23:23but i'm always going to look over my shoulder just to be safe
23:27why is that because someone's going to always always want the success that i have
23:32but that streak of ruthlessness i was just talking about
23:36that's a cynical outlook
23:39well as a doctor
23:42you have healing in your heart
23:47cynicism is the opposite of hope
23:54audrey you are a fascinating woman
23:58and i hope that one day
24:02you can finally stop looking over your shoulder
24:16will you really think that here and now is the time to tell victoria that i'm going to be running
24:20chancellor
24:21any chance i can talk you out of that no she threatened me
24:25she's already telling me that the company belongs to nikki and that i shouldn't get too comfortable
24:30you want to show her who's in charge
24:32yes i'm not going to be intimidated by a woman who basically had everything handed to her her entire
24:37life you're such a badass
24:41yeah she's not going to be the only one upset about you hiring me
24:45you mean devon and nate i'm not my biggest fans
24:48it's fine they're gonna get over it don't worry
24:52you're an optimist now well yeah i think that you're the perfect person for the job
24:57i mean not only does your business record speak for itself but katherine loved you
25:03even when all of your secrets came out she never stopped being a grandmother to you
25:08she could have cut me out of her life but she didn't she held me closer exactly i mean everyone
25:14feels like k would have wanted nikki to be ceo but she left management of chancellor to you in her
25:20will
25:20so that's why i think that you're the perfect person for the job
25:28are you guys saying what i'm seeing over there that bartender is completely overwhelmed
25:33um i mean is she tending on her own yeah she is it's sienna that's noah's girlfriend she's also
25:39the co-owner of this place and uh yeah she is short-staffed
25:46you know what i'm gonna go help you you don't mind no okay give me a drink you got it
25:54hey need a hand hey whoa you are danny romilani whoa oh god rock on you're like
26:03done well tonight i'm your co-worker ladies what can i get you shots yes great idea

26:20you know he's very happy a lot of that is because of you so thank you well danny makes me
26:27just as happy
26:29happy isn't really a word i'd use to describe my mother these days i heard you drop the charges
26:34against her i did now i mean i'm grateful but after what she pulled part of me was kind of
26:43hoping that
26:44she'd be taught a lesson this time but i guess she's just gonna get away scot-free from what i've
26:50seen
26:50she is learning a lesson maybe even more profoundly than she would have if she ended up in prison
27:00okay um i should get going i've got a ton of work to plow through before bed and an early
27:07video
27:08meeting tomorrow no rest for the wicked no rest for the successful anyway um it was nice to get you
27:20yeah it uh definitely was
27:25can i make an observation well i like it i hate it
27:28um hopefully like there was a lot more passion in your voice when you talked about
27:37the emotional power of healing then when you talked about going home to look through spreadsheets
27:44something to think about oh well good night good night south it was good to see you great
28:22what does it feel like like i got my hand sliced open
28:27but i want to admit i have the best doctors in the state looking after me
28:39nate how bad is the damage to your hand
28:46worse than i wanted to admit
28:50and it scares the hell out of me when that hand heals are you going to be able to perform
28:54surgery again
28:55nick nick i appreciate your concern but i'd rather not discuss it best to just let things unfold
29:01so how long is your hand supposed to be like that for a few more weeks
29:08there's a chance the damage is permanent
29:12i might not be able to operate again in approximately 12 hours
29:19chance com will be the new owner of ask md now congratulations thank you and part of my vision for
29:29the site is i think the brand needs a personality you know a face and i'm hoping that i'm looking
29:38at that
29:38face right now you want me to be a spokesperson well no i mean it would be a bigger job
29:45than that
29:46are you offering me this gig because you heard how the last surgery on my hand went
29:56have you spoken to your father tonight i haven't been able to reach him
30:00um no i don't think i have any missed calls and he's probably at that fundraiser in maryland
30:07oh my god you don't know a tornado hit the country club where the event was being held i have
30:13no idea
30:14if he's okay
30:21you really think my mom's gonna learn a lesson even though she's just gonna pull another stupid
30:25stuff because she's living out here in the land of no consequences she had gone to prison she would
30:30have played the martyr the victim you got that right but in this scenario she lost everything
30:36because of the choices she made a complete failure and it's all on her and that is not an easy
30:42truth
30:43to face if you have phyllis's ego so let's just hope moving forward she is humbled and she makes better
30:50choices yeah those are words that are usually not associated with my mother i don't know christine
31:00i mean every time i want to believe that's possible she just goes and pulls another stupid stunt and i
31:04wind up giving up on her all over again you know give her time check in on her she probably
31:11really needs
