00:00Sorry for the delay I got held up in South Pole.
00:03Right. Nice day. How was it?
00:06It's interesting.
00:08I ran into ADA Turner.
00:11She thinks she's going to send me to prison.
00:14Little does she know that her star witness against me...
00:23is about to disappear.
00:24I was extremely pleased to receive your invitation to lunch.
00:30And look at this. It's a perfect day for it.
00:32And there's nothing I like more than an intimate meal for...
00:37two.
00:39Are you expecting somebody else?
00:42Oh, yes. I asked my son Marco to join us.
00:45Oh, I hope you don't mind.
00:48No, don't be silly. Why would I mind?
00:51You must be completely exhausted.
00:52After entertaining my husband all afternoon...
00:55Portia, I don't know what you're implying, but...
00:57I think that you do.
00:59Because I saw you.
01:01I saw you and Curtis by the pool.
01:03Smiling and laughing.
01:05Reminiscing about old times?
01:07Old times?
01:08Did those old times happen to me during your marriage?
01:10You know what? Maybe you need to have this conversation with your husband.
01:13Oh, I would, but Curtis...
01:15See, he's not the problem.
01:17You are.
01:17Sweetheart, what would lead you to believe that your mom is in any kind of trouble?
01:23Or that Drew had something to do with it?
01:25Remember when Grandpa came to visit?
01:28And we all had dinner together?
01:29Yeah.
01:31Well, Kai overheard you and Mom having an argument.
01:34And you said the only way that she can be safe
01:37is if you found the escort woman
01:39and paid her to say that Drew took the ketamine as a party drug.
01:44Kai heard that.
01:45Yes.
01:46On his way back to the kitchen.
01:47He told me, so I'm asking you.
01:49If Mom is in any kind of trouble
01:51and Drew has something to do with it,
01:53I need to know,
01:54especially because Kai is...
01:56Kai is working for Drew.
01:58So please,
02:00Dad,
02:01tell me what's going on.
02:02With regard to the reckless and reprehensible accusations
02:08levied against my beloved and honorable nephew,
02:14Congressman Drew...
02:16Drew...
02:19I can't do it.
02:24Oh, no.
02:25I can't do it.
02:26I have to tell you the truth.
02:27He did take the drugs.
02:29He did plant them in my car.
02:31He is an embarrassment and a disgrace to my family.
02:34Just ask his nephew whose marriage he destroyed.
02:37The congressman should be thrown out of office
02:40the same way his stepmother threw him out
02:43of the Quartermain mansion.
02:46Brooklyn!
02:47Why don't you take your granny home?
02:50She's either having a stroke or sundowning.
02:58I mean it, Carly.
02:59You have to convince Michael to grant Will a visitation with the kids.
03:03It's the only way to stop her from marrying Drew.
03:07You have had plenty of chances to pry your daughter away from Drew.
03:11And nothing worked so far.
03:13So why should this time be any different?
03:15You and Drew are getting married.
03:18Yes.
03:19It's a legal tactic.
03:22It's exactly what we did to get Wiley away from Nell.
03:24You think this will help you win back custody of the kids?
03:26I love Drew and I want to spend the rest of my life with him.
03:31I know you're not happy about it,
03:33but like I said, I want to be completely transparent with you.
03:35Well then let me be completely transparent with you.
03:38If you marry Drew,
03:39I will make sure that you never see our kids again.
03:41How are the arrangements coming?
04:00For an Italian.
04:02The house is all set up.
04:03Full team of bodyguards.
04:04We're ready.
04:04All right.
04:05Well, as soon as she brings over the incriminating financial records,
04:09we'll get her off, you know, to Belize.
04:13Are you sure that she's not going to double cross you?
04:16ADA Turner seemed pretty confident,
04:18but I have a feeling that Natalia,
04:21she'll follow through.
04:24Okay.
04:25Well, I have eyes on her just in case.
04:27Can't be too careful.
04:30I do have one concern.
04:32Let's hear it.
04:33What if Natalia told Sidwell everything that she knows?
04:39What if she already has?
04:42I hope I'm not interrupting any important deception business.
04:46Uh, no, actually not at all.
04:48Your father was showing me photos of his beautiful home in Dubai.
04:53Ah, his true pride and joy.
04:55My son swears that I love this house more than I love him.
04:58Let's just say it's pretty close.
05:00Though, I have to admit, it is a pretty magnificent home.
05:03Yes, it really is.
05:05Oh, please, give me a heads up.
05:06You know, if you ever decide to salve
05:08so I can run and get my real estate license in the Emirates.
05:12That'll never happen.
05:13A girl can dream.
05:14Yes.
05:15Well, it's funny you should say that,
05:16because I was going to throw a substantial sale your way,
05:20but unfortunately it fell through.
05:22Oh, no, wait, you're not talking about Windermere, are you?
05:26Oh, no, no, no, not Windermere.
05:28I'm talking about Sonny's peers.
05:30He was seriously considering a very generous offer I made,
05:34but ultimately decided not to take it.
05:37I'm sorry to hear about that, Dad.
05:39I know how much you wanted that to happen.
05:41Oh, I tried.
05:42I really tried.
05:43Well, que sera, sera.
05:47Hmm.
05:48Oh, you know, maybe you shouldn't give up yet.
05:53I perhaps could still make it happen.
05:58If Michael can just agree to a generous visitation schedule,
06:02there's no way that Willow can pass that up,
06:04even if Drew can't go with her.
06:07Okay, see, Drew would still be in the equation.
06:09Not when it comes to the kids,
06:11and that's what matters the most to Willow.
06:13And eventually she will see
06:15that she doesn't need Drew's help
06:17to have those kids in her life.
06:19And that will be the beginning
06:22of the end of their relationship.
06:24You're just dreaming.
06:26Drew's still calling the shots.
06:28And there's no way he's gonna let Willow agree
06:30to an arrangement that doesn't include him.
06:34You may have won custody for now, Michael,
06:37but once Drew and I are married,
06:39Judge Herron will revisit her decision,
06:41and at the very least,
06:42I am sure I'll be granted partial custody.
06:44Look, I am not trying to be cruel here, Willow,
06:47but after you melt down in the courtroom,
06:49I don't think that's happening.
06:50All right, so it doesn't matter
06:51what Drew is telling you.
06:53I have custody,
06:53which means I have the power in this situation,
06:55and I will exercise every bit of that power
06:57to protect our children.
06:59You don't have to protect Wiley and Amelia for me.
07:01Yes, I do as long as you are with Drew.
07:03Your relationship with him isn't healthy for you,
07:05and it's definitely not healthy for our kids.
07:07Well, that's your opinion.
07:08It's the judge's two!
07:10She said the exact same thing that I did.
07:12Your relationship with Drew
07:13is the reason you lost Wiley and Amelia,
07:15and if you marry him,
07:16you're gonna be sealing your fate.
07:17You'll never get him back.
07:18You're just trying to bully me
07:20into dumping Drew,
07:21and that tells me all I need to know.
07:23You're scared I'll win,
07:25and when I do, Michael,
07:26I will try to have more compassion for you
07:28than you have had for me.
07:29I'm sorry to tell you this, Mr. Gray.
07:33I'm no fool.
07:35And if anybody needs to have their
07:37mental acuity questioned,
07:39it's you for thinking that I would ever submit
07:42to your ploy to publicly humiliate me
07:45or read this ridiculous, overwritten piece of...
07:50Why would Henderson be colored?
07:51He's not.
07:51I just want to get you out of the line of fire
07:53and away from the cameras.
07:55Guy, thank you.
07:56This was most definitely not a ploy.
08:00Out of the goodness of his heart,
08:02my client gave you the chance
08:04to stay out of prison
08:05by admitting to your appalling crime,
08:07but you have obviously
08:08blown that out of the water
08:10with this gross display
08:11of insolent behavior.
08:13You want to talk about a gross display?
08:16How about the video of your client
08:19having sex with his nephew's wife
08:22in her children's nursery
08:24amongst my mother's antique dolls?
08:27That was a gross display.
08:29Let me tell you something.
08:30I don't know.
08:30Do something?
08:31No, just take it in.
08:32Just how much hostility you have
08:36for your nephew, Congressman Drew Quartermain.
08:39Kane.
08:40Quartermain!
08:41And if there was any doubt
08:43about your guilt, there isn't now.
08:46You drug the congressman.
08:48I did no such thing.
08:49Your client got caught
08:53acting like a frat boy
08:55on spring break
08:56and to cover his ass,
08:58he planted that ketamine
08:59in my car to frame me.
09:02Actually, Ms. Quartermain,
09:03you're dead wrong about that.
09:05Perhaps, you know,
09:15I could get my old friend
09:18to reconsider your offer.
09:19Are you sure?
09:22Because I did ask you
09:23to speak to Sonny
09:24on this matter before
09:25and you declined.
09:26Lucy, I do not want you
09:28to do anything that makes you
09:29the slightest bit uncomfortable.
09:31One of the reasons I declined
09:32is because I knew Sonny
09:33would never, ever, ever sell,
09:36but circumstances have changed
09:38and, um, I'd be happy to help.
09:41In fact, I think I'm gonna go
09:43pay him a visit right now.
09:45Wait, wait, we haven't
09:46even ordered yet.
09:47Well, that means you're just
09:48gonna owe me a lunch another day.
09:50Oh, Lucy, that would have
09:51happened regardless.
09:53You are an absolute angel.
09:59I've considered the possibility
10:01that Natalia could, you know,
10:03leak information to Sidwell.
10:06But from what I've seen,
10:08she can't stand the man.
10:10I mean, that could be an act.
10:11Well, animosity runs deep
10:13and even if Natalia's gone,
10:16Sidwell's gonna make plans
10:17to come after us.
10:20And he's not the type of man
10:21that takes no for an answer.
10:23Okay, why am I the problem, Portia?
10:29Every time I turn around,
10:31you seem to be begging
10:32for Curtis's attention.
10:34Excuse me?
10:36I don't beg for anything.
10:38Oh, right, right.
10:39You're just consistently
10:39looking for excuses
10:40to seek out my husband.
10:42Curtis and I have business dealings
10:44and we're still family.
10:46He's TJ's uncle.
10:47Even though you can't handle it,
10:49we are friends.
10:50And I am his wife.
10:51And you're projecting.
10:53Everything you just described
10:55is exactly how you started
10:56chipping away at my marriage
10:57to Curtis.
10:58So this is payback?
10:59Oh, gosh, get a grip.
11:01If you and Curtis
11:02are having problems,
11:03I'm sorry, but it's not on me.
11:05I'm sorry, who said
11:06that we're having problems?
11:07Well, I don't know.
11:09I mean, something's not right.
11:11Or you wouldn't be here
11:12confronting me in public
11:13for no reason.
11:14Really?
11:15I just saw you fawning
11:16all over my husband.
11:18In public.
11:19Jordan, it was embarrassing.
11:20And I think you need
11:22to find some dignity.
11:23Oh, wow.
11:24Well, I mean,
11:24you are the only one here
11:25causing a scene.
11:27All because you're feeling
11:28insecure about your marriage,
11:29but that has nothing
11:30to do with me.
11:31So be a woman
11:32and step up.
11:34If your marriage
11:35is on the rocks,
11:36well, I'm guessing
11:38that you only have
11:39yourself to blame.
11:43Oh!
11:44Okay, I'll tell you
11:51this much.
11:52Your mother is
11:53in a tough position
11:55and there could be
11:56very negative consequences
11:57if we don't handle
11:59this just right.
12:00Okay, then how can I help?
12:02You can't.
12:04But your mother and I
12:05are handling it.
12:08How?
12:08By tracking down
12:09that Jacinda woman?
12:11Yeah, uh-huh.
12:12Exactly.
12:13Why, though?
12:14Are you going to ask her
12:15to lie about Drew's drug use
12:17or tell the truth?
12:18Honey, the less
12:19you know, the better.
12:22Dad,
12:23I understand that you
12:25want to keep me
12:26away from everything
12:27and protect me.
12:29And I love you
12:30so much for doing that.
12:32But I think you're
12:33making a big mistake
12:33because I can help.
12:36Cody!
12:37No!
12:37What are you saying?
12:38I put a roof over your head.
12:40I gave you a job.
12:42This is how you repay me?
12:43By taking his life?
12:43Excuse me, excuse me, excuse me.
12:45Listen, Cody,
12:45Mr. Bell,
12:46why don't you,
12:47why don't you come on up here
12:49and-
12:50What is going on right now?
12:51I have no idea.
12:52Cody despises Drew.
12:54So why would he stand up for him?
12:55This is, uh-
12:56I got nothing.
12:57Mr. Cody Bell,
12:57he is an afforded
12:58on the court made a state.
13:00Yeah, I'm not so sure about that.
13:01It just so happens
13:02that Mr. Bell
13:03is the son of PCPD's
13:06chief of detectives,
13:07Mac Scorpio.
13:08And as I've already said,
13:11you work
13:11for Tracy Quartermain.
13:13Isn't that right?
13:14Yes.
13:14I, um-
13:15I just want to say,
13:16I want to go on record
13:17in saying how courageous
13:18it is for you
13:18to stand up
13:19and speak out
13:20against your wealthy
13:21and very powerful employer.
13:23You're saying
13:24that the congressman
13:26did not plant
13:27that bottle of ketamine
13:28in Ms. Quartermain's car.
13:31Um, I-
13:32I know that he didn't.
13:34And how do you know that?
13:34Well, firstly,
13:36I'd like to say
13:37that I'm-
13:38I'm not a supporter
13:39of Mr. Kane at all.
13:41I didn't even vote for him.
13:43But, uh,
13:43I can't just stand by
13:45in good conscience
13:46and see him
13:47be accused of something
13:48that he did not do.
13:50Cody!
13:50No!
13:51I-
13:51Don't you dare obstruct.
13:54Go ahead.
13:56Okay, um,
13:57I'm in charge
13:58of the horses
13:58on the estate.
13:59and Hades
14:00is our prize show horse.
14:05Go on.
14:06Okay, so, um,
14:08before the Hampton Classic,
14:09uh, I had to, uh,
14:11help because Hades
14:12required a minor
14:13medical procedure,
14:14and so I had to
14:15get some anesthetic,
14:16but my truck
14:16was having trouble starting,
14:18so I borrowed
14:19Ms. Quartermain's car.
14:21What?
14:22Uh, yes.
14:23Um, I said
14:24I borrowed the car.
14:25Um, so in addition
14:27to some supplies,
14:28I had to pick up, uh,
14:29ketamine
14:29for the procedure,
14:31and, uh,
14:32I-I must have left
14:32a vial in Ms. Quartermain's car,
14:34which means that
14:35the congressman
14:36did not frame
14:37Ms. Quartermain,
14:38and Ms. Quartermain
14:39did not drug
14:40the congressman.
14:41She's innocent.
14:48I appreciate
14:49your concern, okay?
14:50Your mom's in this situation
14:51because of me.
14:53I took a stand
14:53against Drew,
14:54and he's been gunning
14:55for me ever since.
14:57He found a way
14:58to get to me
14:59through your mother,
15:00and that's disgraceful.
15:02Now, if you get involved,
15:03he'll target you,
15:05and I will not
15:06let that happen.
15:07But there has to be
15:07something that I can do
15:08to help.
15:09You can help.
15:10Both you and Kai
15:11just...
15:12just live your lives,
15:14okay?
15:15That's hard to do
15:16when I'm-
15:17when I'm worried
15:18about, Mom.
15:20Your mother and I
15:21are capable people.
15:22Trust me.
15:23We got this.
15:26Okay.
15:27Okay, fine.
15:28But you have to promise me
15:30that if things get worse,
15:31you'll tell me.
15:33I promise.
15:34In the meantime,
15:36do not discuss this
15:38with anyone.
15:40Yeah.
15:40Yeah, I won't-
15:41I won't say a word
15:42and neither will Kai.
15:43We don't want to do
15:44anything to jeopardize Mom.
15:46Huh?
15:51What is wrong with you?
15:55Corsia,
15:55I think you should
15:56come with me.
15:57I'm warning you.
15:59You better stay
15:59out of my marriage.
16:01Let's go.
16:02Come on.
16:05You feel better?
16:07Not really, no.
16:09I hate losing
16:10my temper like that.
16:11It's not me.
16:12I need to deal
16:13with this.
16:14I need to deal
16:15with this once
16:15and for all.
16:20And now's my chance.
16:22I deal with Drew.
16:24I just need Michael
16:25to work with me here.
16:27And that's gonna lead
16:28to a lot more
16:29legal wrangling
16:30and I'm just
16:31pretty much done with that.
16:32At least do it
16:33for our grandchildren.
16:34They need their mother.
16:35They love her.
16:37They need to see her.
16:39And it would go
16:40a long way
16:41towards helping
16:41Willow heal
16:42from the trauma
16:43of losing custody.
16:44Look, I'm not
16:44unsympathetic
16:45to Willow's situation.
16:47But I also haven't
16:48forgotten what she
16:49put my grandkids through
16:50or their father, Nina.
16:51So that's it?
16:52You're just gonna
16:53walk away
16:54and give up
16:55and let her marry Drew?
16:57I can't stop her.
16:59Hell, no one can.
17:01You're gonna have
17:02to figure out
17:02another way
17:02to stop your daughter
17:03from marrying Drew.
17:04Man, it is too bad
17:09that Sidwell
17:09isn't legit.
17:11I mean,
17:12selling him to peers
17:12would solve
17:13all of our problems.
17:15But leaving
17:16poor Charles
17:16in his hands
17:17would have been
17:18a huge mistake.
17:19And even though
17:19we didn't find anything
17:20that ties him
17:20to the explosion
17:21at the penthouse,
17:23we didn't find anything
17:23to exonerate him.
17:24There's too much
17:25uncertainty with this guy.
17:26I wasn't gonna
17:26make a deal with him.
17:27Now we have to
17:28prepare for the blowback.
17:30I'll have everyone
17:31on high alert.
17:32Good afternoon, gentlemen.
17:42Lucy, come on in.
17:44Thank you very much.
17:46What is that?
17:48Oh, I was just hoping
17:50that you and I
17:51could have a little
17:51tête-à-tête.
17:53Not that you aren't
17:54invited to stay.
17:55That's fine.
17:55I gotta get going.
17:56I'll be in touch.
17:57Appreciate it.
17:58Okay, Mr. Carinthos.
18:04You and I need
18:05to talk about
18:06your peers.
18:12Hello?
18:13Jason, it's Nina.
18:16Any chance you can
18:17meet me at the Metro Court?
18:18I haven't tried
18:19to be compassionate.
18:21No, you haven't.
18:23You have been
18:24completely unreasonable.
18:25I flew eight hours
18:26to Germany
18:27to try to work
18:28things out with you,
18:28but you refused
18:29to even see me.
18:30Okay, where are
18:31you getting this from?
18:32No one told me
18:33that you were there.
18:34I spoke to the receptionist.
18:36She went to confer
18:36with you.
18:37When she came back,
18:38she said you didn't
18:38want to see me.
18:40That never happened.
18:42Really?
18:42Because after I insisted,
18:44she said you made it clear
18:45you wanted nothing
18:46to do with me.
18:47Arthur, then there must
18:47have been some kind
18:48of mistake, okay?
18:50The mistake was mine
18:51for thinking there was
18:53a possibility
18:54that the two of us
18:54could find an amicable
18:55compromise.
18:56Just think for a second.
18:57It doesn't make any sense.
18:58Why wouldn't I want
18:59to see you?
19:00Because you couldn't stand
19:01that I chose Drew
19:01over you.
19:03And you're still holding
19:04that against me now.
19:05Just admit it.
19:07You are keeping me
19:08from my children
19:08as punishment
19:09for falling in love
19:11with another man.
19:11I would never
19:12use my children
19:14to punish you.
19:16But I will protect them
19:17from their mother's
19:18fiancé,
19:19who is a destructive,
19:21manipulative fraud.
19:22Drew is none
19:23of those things.
19:24And you know why?
19:24I fell in love
19:25with him
19:25because he respects
19:27me enough
19:27to tell me the truth.
19:28Okay, well then
19:29you're both liars.
19:30Yeah.
19:30Alright, he lies to you
19:31and you lie to yourself.
19:32Congratulations.
19:32There are no secrets
19:33between us.
19:34He lets me in.
19:35He doesn't treat me
19:36as a possession.
19:37He treats me
19:37as an equal.
19:38If that's what
19:39you think, then great.
19:42I won't stop you
19:44from living in your
19:45warped, little fantasy
19:47life with Drew.
19:49But I won't stop you
19:51from dragging my kids
19:52into it and that
19:53is a promise.
19:53You think so?
19:55I know you're used
19:56to getting your way,
19:57Michael,
19:58but not this time.
20:01I am going to marry Drew
20:03and I am going
20:05to get my children back.
20:11Mr. Bell,
20:12why are you lying
20:13for your employer?
20:14I'm not lying.
20:15Miss Quartermain's innocent.
20:17Well, why didn't you
20:18come forward before now?
20:20I don't really
20:21watch the news.
20:22There's so much
20:23sadness out there.
20:24I didn't even realize
20:26that I'd left the ketamine
20:27in Miss Quartermain's car
20:29until it was time
20:29for Hades' procedure
20:30yesterday.
20:31Right.
20:32Yeah, okay.
20:33Alright.
20:33Honestly,
20:35full truth,
20:36when I borrowed
20:37Miss Quartermain's car,
20:38I didn't exactly ask her,
20:40so I was worried
20:41that she'd be upset
20:42if she found out.
20:43You were right about that.
20:44You didn't think
20:45she'd be more upset
20:46by facing charges
20:47that could send her
20:48to prison as a result?
20:50I didn't realize
20:51how far this was going to go,
20:52and when I found out
20:53what was happening,
20:53I decided I had
20:54to say something.
20:55How much
20:56is Tracy paying you
20:57to lie?
20:59I have the receipt
21:00right here.
21:04The ketamine.
21:06Yeah, Dr. Jamie Thomas,
21:08DVM.
21:09It's not DMV.
21:10I looked that up.
21:11It's Doctor of Veterinary Medicine.
21:13I know what it means.
21:14That does not prove
21:15a damn thing, okay?
21:16That could have been
21:17doctored up this morning.
21:19Oh, I think we could get
21:20an expert to prove
21:22that it was written weeks ago?
21:23No, I could get an expert.
21:24You give it to me,
21:25I'll have it authenticated.
21:26Oh, no.
21:27This is going right
21:28to my lawyer.
21:29Just give me the...
21:30Sid, we'll send you over here?
21:39No.
21:41This was totally my idea
21:43because I really think
21:45you need to reconsider his offer.
21:47I know you were expecting
21:48a big commission.
21:49No, it's not about a commission.
21:50It's not about me being
21:51a real estate agent
21:52at this point.
21:53It's about me being your friend
21:54and getting you
21:55out of a very politically
21:56sticky situation.
21:58You know, this whole big business
22:00with Measure C,
22:01it is truly a mess
22:03for you and Laura.
22:05Well, that was the only reason
22:06I entertained the offer
22:07in the first place.
22:08Well, then why did you
22:09turn the offer down?
22:10Because he's a bad guy.
22:12Okay.
22:13You do realize you are
22:15already in business with him
22:16through deception?
22:17That was not my decision.
22:19Have you just happened
22:20to look at your portfolio lately?
22:23Our stock is soaring.
22:25And it would be
22:27that much better
22:28if he had his own peers
22:30to operate his import business
22:31out of and import
22:32all those valuable minerals.
22:34Minerals and God knows
22:36what else.
22:39Okay.
22:40Let's get down to brass tacks,
22:42shall we?
22:43In the spirit of cooperation
22:45and friendship.
22:47Right.
22:48What do I have to do
22:49to make this happen?
22:52Do you really think
22:53your friend Lucy
22:53can get Sonny
22:54to change his mind?
22:55Mm.
22:57It's a long shot,
22:58but Lucy Coe
22:59can be a very persuasive person.
23:02And I hope she succeeds
23:03so I don't have to resort
23:05to more drastic measures.
23:07Dad.
23:08I'm kidding.
23:10I'm kidding.
23:11Come on.
23:12Look,
23:13I'm fairly certain
23:14that Sonny Carinthos
23:15won't be an impediment
23:16to you much longer.
23:18Really?
23:19Thank you for coming
23:20so quickly.
23:22I'm assuming this has to do
23:23with Michael and Willow.
23:25It seems
23:25my daughter is engaged to Drew
23:28and I need to make sure
23:29they don't make it
23:30to the altar.
23:31I'm not sure
23:32how I can help.
23:33I just pitched a plan
23:35to Carly hoping
23:36that she would get Michael
23:37on board,
23:38but she turned me down.
23:39I'm desperate, Jason,
23:41so I'm turning to you.
23:43Again,
23:43I'm not sure
23:44what I can do.
23:46You're close to Michael.
23:47He values your opinion.
23:49That depends.
23:51What?
23:52What's your plan?
23:54I want you to get Michael
23:56to let Willow see the kids
23:57without Drew.
23:59That would give Willow
24:00much less reason
24:01to marry Drew.
24:02And maybe that would give me
24:03a little wiggle room
24:04to postpone
24:05the wedding
24:06and if I get real lucky,
24:08I can convince my daughter
24:09to dump Drew
24:10all together.
24:13You mean it couldn't work?
24:14Does that mean
24:15that you'll talk to Michael?
24:16What's going on here?
24:21I just talked to Nina
24:22and she told me
24:24that Drew and Willow
24:24are getting married.
24:26Yeah, I know.
24:27Willow, she was just here
24:29in the spirit
24:31of transparency.
24:33Now she's convinced
24:34that Mary and Drew
24:35will help her
24:35win back custody
24:36of the kids.
24:37I don't think
24:37that's going to happen.
24:39Well, one way or another,
24:40I won't let it.
24:42Okay, look.
24:44Nina thinks
24:45that if you allow
24:46Willow visitation
24:47without Drew,
24:48you're going to take away
24:49her incentive
24:50to get married.
24:51And then maybe
24:52Willow will eventually
24:53be pried away from Drew
24:55and he'll be out
24:56of the picture for good.
24:58I mean, in the end,
24:59that's what you want, right?
25:02Sorry to keep you waiting.
25:04I was actually
25:05at the MetroCorp pool
25:06when you called.
25:08Oh, I was there today as well.
25:09We must have just
25:10missed each other.
25:11We didn't.
25:13Because I saw you
25:13there with Jordan.
25:15I think we need
25:16to have a conversation
25:16about that.
25:17Okay, but we really need
25:18to discuss something else first.
25:20It's about Trina.
25:21What's going on with Trina?
25:22Is everything all right?
25:23Trina knows you're in trouble.
25:25Trina knows it's
25:27because of Drew.
25:29Are you all right,
25:30Mr. Gray?
25:30I think I landed
25:31on the keys.
25:33I'll get them up.
25:34Um, well,
25:35I think in light
25:36of Mr. Gray's injury,
25:38it's best if we brought
25:39this press conference
25:40to an end.
25:40Thank you so much
25:41for your time
25:44and for your patience.
25:46Before you go,
25:47do you think
25:48that there's a little
25:48something you might
25:49want to say
25:50to the good people
25:51of poor Charles?
25:54Yes.
25:55Yes, there is.
25:56Um,
25:57it seems
26:00that my dear
26:01Aunt Tracy
26:02has been exonerated
26:04and
26:04I can't tell you
26:06how relieved
26:08I am
26:08to know
26:09that she wasn't
26:10the one
26:10that drugged me,
26:11but rest assured
26:12I will be
26:13working closely
26:15with the PCPD
26:17to find
26:17the real culprit.
26:19Oh, my darling nephew,
26:21you're not gonna have
26:21to look very far.
26:23Just look in the mirror.
26:28No problem.
26:31I honestly don't know
26:32why Portia flew
26:33off the handle like that.
26:34Really?
26:35Come on, Jordan.
26:37I saw you
26:37with Curtis, too.
26:39Are you seriously
26:40trying to say
26:41that Portia
26:41has nothing to worry about?
26:42we should have been
26:45more careful
26:46for Kai
26:47to have overheard us
26:48like that?
26:50There's nothing
26:51we can do about it now.
26:53Do you think
26:53that he told Drew
26:54what he heard?
26:56Trina said
26:56he wouldn't do that.
26:58And frankly,
26:59I have a hard time
26:59believing that, uh,
27:00Kai could do anything
27:02that would hurt
27:02this family
27:03or Trina.
27:03we just have to make sure
27:06she doesn't get tangled
27:06up in this mess.
27:08But does Trina know
27:09what Drew is holding
27:10over my head?
27:11Trina has no idea
27:12that you
27:13doctored Heather Weber's
27:15test results
27:15to keep her behind bars.
27:18Well, thank God for that.
27:19Because if she did know,
27:20she would probably
27:21blame herself
27:22for everything
27:22that's going on right now.
27:23She probably would.
27:25So,
27:26we have to make sure
27:28she's not burdened
27:28with that
27:29by stopping Drew.
27:30After everything
27:31that we've done,
27:32it's just,
27:33it doesn't even
27:34seem possible.
27:36Well,
27:36actually,
27:38I have some good news
27:39on that front.
27:41I used to think
27:42that there'd come a day
27:43where Willow
27:44would come to her senses,
27:45but I was wrong.
27:46And so are you and Nina.
27:48Why do you say that?
27:50Today,
27:50I finally got it.
27:52For whatever reason,
27:53and I know
27:54there are many,
27:55Willow is incapable
27:56of realizing
27:58that her relationship
27:59with Drew
27:59is harming our kids.
28:01She lost custody
28:02because of him.
28:02It doesn't matter
28:03who tells her,
28:03you,
28:04me,
28:04the judge.
28:04Either she can't see it
28:05or she won't.
28:09Ultimately,
28:09it doesn't matter.
28:13The impact
28:14on my kids
28:14is the same.
28:17Okay.
28:19What's the plan?
28:20I'm going to have Diane
28:21delay the visitation hearing
28:23as long as possible.
28:25And once we finally
28:26do have a hearing,
28:26Willow will get nothing.
28:33Keeping the kids
28:33from their mother,
28:34it won't break my heart
28:37every day.
28:40Keeping the kids
28:41from their mother,
28:42it won't break my heart
28:44every day.
28:46but I can't allow Drew
28:49to be a part
28:49of their lives.
28:50I won't do it.
28:52If you hadn't been
28:52so focused
28:54on revenge,
28:56maybe you would have
28:57seen what she was
28:58planning and been
28:59able to stop her
29:00before she made
29:01fools of both of us.
29:03Drew,
29:03I swear I can still
29:04do damage control
29:05with the press.
29:06Shut up.
29:07Just stop already.
29:08You've done enough.
29:10Okay.
29:11Well,
29:11in that case,
29:12Kai,
29:14careful,
29:14careful.
29:15I'm going to,
29:16I'm going to go
29:18to the hospital
29:20and get my
29:20back checked.
29:21Yeah,
29:21that's fine.
29:23And that retainer,
29:24by the way,
29:25that's all you're getting?
29:27It's quite a speech
29:28you had up there.
29:29Just the truth.
29:31And if the police
29:32looked into that
29:32ketamine purchase?
29:33Check out.
29:34No problem.
29:36You don't have
29:37the actual receipt
29:38for that,
29:38do you?
29:39Uh,
29:40you for that,
29:40do you?
29:41Uh,
29:42yeah,
29:42yeah,
29:43somewhere.
29:43I mean,
29:43I have to check.
29:44I'm not really
29:45good at record keeping.
29:47Why am I not surprised?
29:49That was pretty wild
29:50how Cody just
29:51rode into your rescue
29:53like that.
29:53Yeah,
29:54well,
29:54I'm very relieved
29:55that my good name
29:56has been cleared
29:57and that I am
29:58no longer
29:59under the crooked
29:59little thumb
30:00of Drew Cain
30:01and I think
30:02I'm going to have
30:02to let Cody
30:03taking my car
30:05without permission
30:06slide.
30:07Well,
30:07something tells me
30:08you're going to owe him
30:08a little bit more
30:09than that.
30:12That was
30:12a complete disaster.
30:14Now I look
30:15even guiltier.
30:16Like you said,
30:17though,
30:17the police will help
30:18you find the real culprit.
30:19Yeah,
30:19but that's going to
30:20take some time.
30:21You know,
30:21like I need to
30:22repair my reputation
30:23quickly.
30:23Willow and I are getting
30:27married.
30:28Congratulations.
30:29Well,
30:29thank you.
30:32And we were heading
30:33in that direction anyway,
30:34but we were speeding
30:35things up a little bit
30:36so that she could win
30:37custody back of her children.
30:39But now,
30:39if the judge
30:40and everyone
30:41still think that
30:42I'm a drug user,
30:43that's not going to happen.
30:45Not only will I fail
30:46my constituents,
30:46judge,
30:47and everyone
30:48still think that
30:49I'm a drug user,
30:50that's not going to happen.
30:51And not only will I fail
30:52my constituents,
30:54I'll fail the woman
30:55that means everything to me.
31:03You know how much
31:04I love you
31:04and our friendship.
31:06You are a very
31:07savvy businesswoman.
31:11Savvy enough to know
31:12that there are situations
31:13you should not
31:14be involved in.
31:17And this is
31:19one of those situations.
31:21Then I will
31:22back off?
31:25You know me,
31:26I had to try.
31:27However,
31:28I do think
31:28you are judging
31:29Sidwell
31:30on his reputation.
31:32You know me,
31:32I had to try.
31:34However,
31:34I do think
31:35you are judging
31:36Sidwell
31:37on his reputation
31:38and not
31:39on his actions.
31:41Both of us
31:42know what that's like.
31:44We do.
31:44And when it comes
31:45to Sidwell,
31:46I trust
31:47my sources.
31:48And I trust mine.
31:49thank you
31:51for hearing me
31:53out.
31:53And I certainly
31:54hope I haven't
31:56imposed on
31:57our friendship.
31:58No,
31:58not at all.
32:00Especially
32:00when you
32:01bring me such
32:02delicious oranges.
32:04Why are you so
32:13confident that
32:14Sonny won't be
32:14a problem?
32:15Do you know
32:16something?
32:16I've already
32:17said as much
32:18as I can say.
32:21Okay.
32:22I understand.
32:24And I hope
32:24you're right.
32:25I prefer
32:25not to get
32:26my hands dirty
32:27to eradicate
32:28Sonny
32:29Krinthos
32:29from Port Charles.
32:34But
32:34it adds up
32:36being my only
32:37option.
32:37Well,
32:39so
32:40but
32:42it adds up
32:44being my only
32:45option.
32:46Well,
32:47so be it.
32:49There is nothing
32:50going on
32:51with me and Curtis.
32:52Okay.
32:53But can you say
32:54it was completely
32:54innocent?
32:55You know what?
32:56Never mind.
32:57It's not my
32:58business anymore.
32:59Isaiah.
33:01I am sorry
33:02that it didn't
33:04work out between
33:04us.
33:05Me too.
33:06I can see now
33:07that Sidwell
33:07wasn't the only
33:08problem in the
33:09way.
33:10Your ex-husband
33:10was too.
33:11That's not true.
33:13I think deep
33:13down inside
33:14you know what
33:14is.
33:16And if not,
33:19you're in for
33:19a rude awakening.
33:25I heard from
33:26Felicia.
33:27She's got a
33:27lead on
33:27Jacinda.
33:29She knows
33:30where she is?
33:31Sydney,
33:32Australia.
33:33I don't know
33:33the exact
33:33location yet,
33:34but I should
33:35know within
33:3548 hours.
33:36Thank God.
33:38Maybe this
33:38nightmare will
33:39be over soon.
33:40Yeah.
33:41So once I
33:41talk with
33:42Jacinda,
33:43I'll convince
33:44her to come
33:44back and
33:45then publicly
33:46state that
33:46it was Drew
33:47who hired her
33:47for a wild
33:48night of
33:48sex and
33:49drugs.
33:50He won't
33:51have time
33:51to focus
33:52on blackmailing
33:52you.
33:53He will
33:53be too
33:53busy worried
33:54about keeping
33:55his career
33:56from completely
33:57imploding.
33:59You don't think
34:00I got Cody
34:01to lie for me,
34:02do you?
34:03I'm not judging.
34:04I thought it was clever.
34:05It was,
34:06wasn't it?
34:06It was Michael's idea.
34:08I played all of you.
34:11You see,
34:12real quarter mains,
34:14we get things done.
34:17I'm gonna have to
34:18call off the wedding
34:19like I can't be
34:20the reason that
34:21she loses her
34:21kids forever.
34:22And can't be
34:23the reason that
34:24she loses
34:24her kids forever.
34:26And that's
34:27really a possibility?
34:29It seems like
34:30everybody's against us.
34:35Congressman,
34:36there's something
34:36you should know.
34:38What is it?
34:38Curtis Ashford
34:40plans to find
34:41that escort
34:42Jacinda
34:42and bring her
34:42here to Port Charles
34:43to tell everyone
34:44that you are
34:44knowingly abusing
34:45drugs.
34:46This could be
34:47a huge problem
34:48for you and Willow.
34:49So you need
34:49to prepare now
34:50in case he succeeds.
34:52Michael sent you
34:53to intimidate
34:54me and my mom,
34:55right?
34:55To stop me
34:56from marrying Drew?
34:57Well, it won't work.
34:59Okay, Willow,
35:00you're making a mistake.
35:00No, you are.
35:02You are wrong
35:02about your brother.
35:03He's a good man.
35:04And I can't wait
35:04to be his wife.
35:06And together,
35:06we'll get my kids back.
35:07It's okay
35:09if that's what
35:10you want to do.
35:10It is.
35:13It's your choice.
35:19I hate
35:21separating the kids
35:22from their mom,
35:23but it's for their own good.
35:25And please tell me
35:26that you understand
35:27where I'm coming from.
35:29I do.
35:31I've been where you are.
35:32I was convinced
35:35that keeping you
35:37from AJ
35:37was the right thing.
35:40Keep in mind,
35:42you didn't thank me
35:44for that decision.
35:46And your kids
35:47might not thank you.
35:50They may very well
35:51resent you for it.
35:53I know.
35:53I've got to do it anyway.
36:00I'll just have to live
36:01with the consequences.
36:02I'll just have to live
36:03with the consequences.
36:05I'll just have to live
36:05to live to my mind
36:10if you first
36:10have to live
36:10with the terrible
