00:08dinner hey pop it's me again i know that you're busy with aristotle dumas but i really need to
00:16talk to you okay it's important it's even later in france if you're calling victor there must be
00:26a problem did something big happen oh how was your talk with victor well i offered to buy chancellor
00:39was he receptive it's not the word i would use bet am either guests well they have retired for
00:50the evening though i suspect some of them may have trouble sleeping listen i'm sorry tonight
00:59didn't go the way that you'd hoped not as i hoped but not much different than i expected
01:06thank you for arranging all of this oh of course you know how much i love a party
01:16yeah well still not the most easygoing group is it you don't say
01:21i do have to admit that it will be a relief not to have to keep your identity a secret anymore
01:28yeah it can be lonely living in the shadows does that mean that you won't miss being aristotle dumas
01:35no that identity served its purpose
01:39i get the feeling that you have more secrets that you're keeping am i right about that
01:47so
02:29Do you honestly think that you have the right to tell me to stay away from our kids?
02:53I'm their father, Lily.
02:55Well, your father is a bad influence.
02:59Which is exemplified by the fact that after everything he has done, you're willing to
03:03let him back into your life.
03:05I told you that he's changed.
03:06I know that you believe that.
03:08I don't.
03:09He made amends.
03:11He realizes how much family means to him and he wants to see his grandchildren.
03:14The man is sick.
03:16Okay?
03:17My dad is dying, Lily.
03:18I'm really sorry, but he has made his choices and I've made mine.
03:23Well, Maddie and Charlie are adults, so they can make their own choices.
03:26So if you don't need my approval, why did you even ask me?
03:29Maddie and Charlie know how I feel about your dad, and so they don't trust him.
03:34And the fact that you're letting Colin convince you to trust him again shows that you have
03:38bad judgment.
03:39So I don't want you around the kids either.
03:41No, don't.
03:42Don't.
03:42Don't.
03:43Do that.
03:43Don't.
03:45Listen.
03:46You will not cut me out of my children's lives.
03:48You know what?
03:49Losing your temper will not make me change my mind.
03:54Could you just agree to me with him?
03:56Please, give him the opportunity to show you that he's changed.
04:00The man is staring death in the face, Lily.
04:02That changes everything.
04:03And it's clear you don't want to give him the benefit of the doubt, but don't you at
04:06least owe me that.
04:07The man is staring death in the face, Lily.
04:31I have a few other surprises in store for my guests.
04:48Care to share what those might be?
04:51I know how tiresome it was to defy questions about my identity.
04:55I'll spare you my confidence regarding what comes next.
04:57I would push you to tell me, but I know it won't do any good.
05:05You never got a chance to give me your take on people's reaction to my reveal.
05:09Oh, well, you were there, you saw the look on their faces.
05:11They were all blown away.
05:13Well, except for...
05:15Victor.
05:18But when you and Victor came out of the maze,
05:22everyone was just trying to put the pieces of the puzzle together.
05:26I mean, for months, they were wondering,
05:29who is Aristotle to Ma?
05:32And they finally got that answer.
05:35And now they have more questions.
05:38But I know Lily's response is the one that you're most interested in.
05:43She didn't look very happy.
05:45No, she made it clear she was not.
05:49Cain, I know that she is the mother of your children,
05:53but this is a lot for anyone.
05:55We'll always be connected by Maddie and Charlie.
06:01But at least she just...
06:02She just needs a little bit more time to process all this, that's all.
06:08Women, especially ones as strong and as smart as Lily Winters,
06:13they do not like when the truth is kept from them.
06:18I stopped by the train to see her again tonight.
06:20And?
06:23Devon is urging her to leave.
06:25They want to leave Virginia City tomorrow morning.
06:27Yeah.
06:28I would suspect that that would be his reaction.
06:31He is very protective of the ones he loves.
06:36Is that your professional or your personal opinion?
06:38Okay.
06:38Let's not go there.
06:39I do not need advice on how to deal with my ex, unsolicited or otherwise.
06:45You pay me to give you wise counsel on your affairs, not the other way around.
06:50Okay.
06:50Okay.
06:51Point taken.
06:54There's a storm coming.
06:56It's going to be a big one.
06:59It may be my only hope to keep Lily here.
07:01As much as she wants to leave, I need her here.
07:15Couldn't sleep?
07:18Nope.
07:19Not at all.
07:22Then I can guess what, or should I say who, is keeping you awake.
07:26Okay.
07:31May I pour you a glass of wine?
07:36No, I think I'm just going to stick to water.
07:39Huh?
07:40You're missing out.
07:41This is a fine glass of Sommion Blanc.
07:44I'll tell you, the ma has.
07:46You mean Cain?
07:48Cain.
07:49You know, when I worked for him, he was just a name.
07:54But now that he's got a face, to me, he's just another guy.
08:01But he was a whole lot more to you.
08:04You know, we once talked about being unlucky in love.
08:09Now, am I safe to assume that it was his dramatic entrance that's gotten you awake now?
08:16Well, yeah, of course.
08:17I mean, I didn't think I was going to find Cain here.
08:21Or find out that he's leading a double life as a billionaire.
08:24Yeah.
08:24So, yeah, I know I wanted to sleep on it, which, that's not happening.
08:29So, I think that you and Devon are right.
08:31And we should just leave first thing in the morning.
08:35Yeah.
08:35Well, when we left you alone with Cain, I thought he might say something to you that would make you want to stay to hear more.
08:45Yeah, I know.
08:46I know Devon thinks that he's just going to sweet-talk his way back into my life.
08:51I mean, I know how protective Devon is of family.
08:55You in particular.
08:56Well, I can take care of myself.
08:58Everybody knows that, Billy.
09:00Okay?
09:00But it doesn't stop people from caring, though.
09:03I know that.
09:04It's just annoying that Devon thinks that I'm still so naive when it comes to men and business.
09:14But I know his heart is in the right place.
09:18No doubt.
09:20What is his concern, Allie?
09:23Lily, this talk with your ex, it...
09:26No, it was a complete waste of time.
09:30Although, Devon was right.
09:31Cain thinks that there is some way that I'm going to give him another chance.
09:36So that's why I want to leave.
09:38Because I don't want him thinking that's a possibility.
09:41Just the sooner I am away from Cain, the better.
09:48You are resorting to praying to the God of Thunder to keep Lily here.
09:54That's, um, Thor, right?
09:58No, he was a Norse god.
09:59My appeal was to Zeus.
10:03Yeah, I'm partial to the Greeks.
10:05Mm, of course.
10:06Aristotle.
10:08Still, it's not like you to throw up your hands and just put your fate in someone else's.
10:14Yeah, no, it's more my style to throw money at a problem.
10:17Hmm.
10:18But not everybody can be bought.
10:20Lily certainly cannot.
10:21But you said that Victor was not interested in making a deal.
10:27Is there a chance that that's a negotiating tactic?
10:31Did you get a sense that there may be a price that he'd be willing to give up Chancellor for?
10:38You know, Victor's always been a hard sell.
10:42But I'm committed to acquiring that company by any means necessary.
10:46I still have a few cards up top of my sleeve.
10:51Well, maybe you can let me take a peek at your hand.
10:54You know, make sure that it's as strong as you think it is.
10:57Mm-hmm.
10:57You think I'm bluffing?
10:59I can't tell you what I think if you shut me out.
11:02Now, Cain, I know that you are used to keeping your own counsel and you have done very well for yourself, but I am here.
11:09I am here to protect you from going all-in when you are playing a game that you cannot possibly win.
11:17Victor is a formidable foe.
11:20Do not underestimate him.
11:22I won't.
11:24But Victor underestimated Aristotle Dumas.
11:28And now he's underestimating Cain Ashby.
11:30I would never do anything like that to you.
11:33Yeah.
11:33Yeah.
11:33Yeah.
11:33Yeah.
11:33Yeah.
11:33Yeah.
11:33Yeah.
11:33Yeah.
11:33Yeah.
11:34Yeah.
11:35Yeah.
11:35Yeah.
11:36Yeah.
11:37Yeah.
11:37Yeah.
11:38Yeah.
11:39I just need to talk to my father.
11:45He's not returning my calls or texts.
11:48And I don't know if he's giving me the cold shoulder because I didn't execute his plan to trash Billy.
11:53Or he's just not getting my messages.
11:56I wish I could tell you it's the latter.
11:59It's most likely the former.
12:01He's a niece, not on Mars.
12:03Well, I knew he was going to be angry, but now is not a good time for him to be petulant.
12:08I just wish we could give Victor something else to sink his teeth into.
12:12Some scandal that could demand his attention.
12:15Well, we have that now, so if he is ignoring my messages, it's to his own detriment.
12:23Okay.
12:23Now you're starting to scare me.
12:26When I walked in and you were so intently focused on your phone, I assumed you were still just fighting zombies.
12:31Well, I wish I was the one playing games.
12:35Someone is making some big moves in Genoa City.
12:41And I'm afraid that someone is Aristotle Dumas.
12:44Well, I, for one, am glad that you decided to head back home.
12:54You know, I don't know if I would call this a party, but there's definitely been more puzzles than I care to solve.
13:02Oh, you didn't like the life-size maze?
13:05No.
13:06I did not.
13:07Okay.
13:08But I made it, thanks to you.
13:11Yeah, well, claustrophobia is not fun.
13:14I can usually manage, if I know what I'm dealing with.
13:19But those hedges, they took me by surprise.
13:23There's been a lot of surprises here.
13:24I thought maybe when I heard you cry out earlier tonight that...
13:32You and Devon had to rescue me?
13:34Lily, you sounded in distress.
13:36Well, I was.
13:38So is that Kane's M.O.?
13:41You know, setting up situations so there's major drama?
13:44I don't know who he is anymore or what he thinks.
13:48Yeah, well, it's not how Dumas does things.
13:51You know, he likes to stay under the radar.
13:55But Kane...
13:57Kane seems to be the go-big-or-go-home kind of guy.
14:01Yeah, well, I'm choosing the latter.
14:03Yeah, but you used to love him, right?
14:06Yeah, of course I did.
14:08I mean, that's why I was lying awake,
14:11because I just was trying to reconcile past memories
14:15with where we are in the present.
14:18But you two clearly had happier times, you know, with your wedding and...
14:24the birth of your twins.
14:26Yeah, no, I'm talking about more recent events.
14:31I just feel like Kane is just becoming more and more like his dad.
14:36It's like there was a time when...
14:38Kane knew who his father was,
14:40and he would have never trusted him around people that he loved,
14:43and especially the kids.
14:45And now I feel like Kane is just determined to become just like his dad.
14:52I'm...
14:53I'm sorry I put all of this on you.
14:56No, Lily, you're trying to figure things out.
14:59And I'm happy to listen.
15:01Yeah, well, I was looking for a distraction, so...
15:04Oh, I've been called worse.
15:07No, I just...
15:08I don't want to talk or think about Kane at all anymore.
15:12I just don't.
15:13Oh.
15:15So, you're up.
15:17And I'm up.
15:19Any idea what I can do to...
15:22take your mind off your troubles?
15:28Thanks for agreeing to eat with me before we head home.
15:30Okay.
15:36If you're not going to pay any attention to me,
15:38you at least have to tell me what's going on.
15:40You were on your cell the entire way over here.
15:44Look, I'm sorry.
15:47Hey, when you kept your promise
15:49and defied Victor's orders to go after Billy,
15:53we said we would deal with the fallout together.
15:57Well, to tell you the truth,
15:58I'm a lot less worried about what my father's going to do to me
16:00than what Dumas is going to do to your father.
16:03So, tell me, what...
16:04What is Dumas doing that has you so unsettled?
16:10I was just getting confirmation
16:12on some rumors that I heard.
16:16What rumors?
16:18Someone's been buying up real estate in downtown Genoa City.
16:22Any and all available commercial properties.
16:25Within walking distance,
16:27Newman Enterprises,
16:28Jabot Cosmetics,
16:29and Chancellor Industries.
16:31In that scene,
16:32real estate holding company
16:34is buying up several condo properties
16:36in that same area.
16:38Interesting.
16:39It is.
16:40And I don't know why
16:41anyone will be suddenly interested
16:42in acquiring so much property
16:44in downtown Genoa City.
16:46It may sound like the property is ordeals.
16:48I found someone warning for sale.
16:50So, I had one of our investigators
16:52do a deep dive.
16:53It is a real estate company
16:55and just like the Danglars property
16:57in Los Angeles,
16:58it's owned by Arabesque.
17:00which is owned by Aristotle Dumas.
17:03And now,
17:07Dumas invites the Newmans
17:08and the Abbotts
17:09to some exclusive party
17:11on the other side of the world.
17:13Where he's buying up
17:14huge chunks of real estate
17:16strategically adjacent
17:17to all of their companies.
17:18Why would Dumas do this?
17:22I mean,
17:22that's why I'm trying
17:23to get a hold of my dad.
17:25Maybe he knows
17:26what Dumas is up to.
17:29Phyllis,
17:30you are not eavesdropping
17:33on our private conversation.
17:35Oh, I would never do that.
17:36I'm like,
17:37not like I have my ears to a hedge
17:39or something.
17:40That would be so ridiculous.
17:42No,
17:42I was walking around
17:44so gorgeous.
17:46So gorgeous.
17:47and I heard voices
17:48and I'm all about
17:51respecting your privacy.
17:53Since when?
17:57I don't remember
17:58you being funny.
17:59Yeah,
18:00I am.
18:01Life's taught me
18:01to have a sense of humor.
18:02Yeah,
18:02well,
18:03this place is no joke.
18:05It is gorgeous.
18:06Truly.
18:09Can we talk?
18:11You know,
18:12Phyllis,
18:12it's been a long night.
18:14Whatever you have to say,
18:15I'd rather wait
18:15till tomorrow morning
18:16to hear it.
18:16I completely understand that.
18:18Listen,
18:18your time is valuable.
18:20I get that.
18:21I just
18:22need maybe 15 minutes
18:24to give you my elevator pitch.
18:29Oh,
18:29that's the timing.
18:30My timing is impeccable,
18:32actually.
18:32you would not have allowed me
18:37to come
18:38if you didn't want to work
18:39with me in some capacity.
18:42You know that
18:43and I know that.
18:46So,
18:47I meant what I said.
18:49I would never,
18:50ever
18:50underestimate you,
18:52Kane.
18:53You see,
18:54I've built a career
18:55on taking advantage
18:56of people
18:57who have underestimated me.
18:58Phyllis.
19:02He's already said
19:03that he'll talk to you
19:04in the morning,
19:04okay?
19:04Let's just take that
19:05as a win.
19:06I,
19:06I,
19:06I,
19:07absolutely,
19:07absolutely.
19:08Listen,
19:08I think what happened
19:09here today,
19:10we realize
19:11that time is precious
19:12and anything can change
19:13on a dime,
19:14right?
19:15Yeah,
19:15she's right about that.
19:16Okay,
19:22Phyllis.
19:24You can have
19:24ten minutes
19:25of my very valuable time.
19:27Make it very good.
19:34If I can't consult
19:35with my father,
19:35then it's up to me
19:36to figure out
19:37what Dumas' game plan is.
19:39You mean,
19:39it's up to us?
19:40Victor has got to
19:45have met this guy
19:46already
19:47and know
19:48what his intentions are
19:49and whether or not
19:50the moves that he's making
19:51closer to home
19:52need to be countered.
19:53Have you tried
19:53reaching out to Nick
19:54or Nikki?
19:56I tried to call Sharon,
19:58but I didn't have any luck.
20:01Maybe the messages
20:02aren't going through.
20:03Well,
20:04like you said,
20:05they're not on Mars.
20:06It's not like they don't
20:06have cell service
20:07in Nice.
20:08No,
20:08but maybe they don't
20:09have cell service
20:10at the Chateau.
20:13Or maybe Dumas
20:14made them all
20:15hand in their phones
20:16so they can take
20:16a picture of him
20:17and leak it online.
20:19Or maybe Dumas
20:20doesn't want them
20:21to know
20:21what he's up to
20:23while they're away.
20:25Oh, yeah.
20:31Well,
20:31I don't think
20:33we're going to figure
20:33this out tonight,
20:35so maybe
20:36I'm going to wait
20:38until the morning.
20:40I guess it's going
20:42to have to.
20:45Look,
20:46I'm sorry
20:46that I'm so
20:47distracted by this.
20:49Let's enjoy
20:50our dinner together,
20:51okay?
20:52Okay?
20:55I like that plan.
20:56I think I saw something
21:01when I was looking
21:02around the car earlier.
21:05Whoa.
21:07What is it?
21:08Quite the collection.
21:10Oh, wow.
21:12Oh, look at these knives.
21:14You're not going to do
21:15a circus act
21:16where you throw that
21:16at me, are you?
21:17No, no, that's
21:18not what I had
21:19in mind, okay?
21:20I just,
21:21I didn't see these.
21:24They're beauties.
21:25So what,
21:25is your ex
21:27a collector?
21:28I mean,
21:29not when we
21:29were together.
21:31So maybe it's
21:32just part of this
21:32whole Count
21:34of Monte Cristo
21:35fascination.
21:36I thought we were
21:36staying away
21:37from all things Dumas,
21:38right?
21:39Right.
21:40Sorry.
21:42Okay.
21:43Okay, so what
21:43do you have in mind?
21:44Hmm, these.
21:46Right here, these.
21:48So I thought
21:49that I was going
21:50to be stuck
21:50playing solitaire,
21:51so what?
21:52Oh, well now
21:54we're talking.
21:55Yeah.
21:55What game
21:56do you want to play?
21:57Uh, Crazy Eights.
21:58Crazy Eights?
21:59What are we,
22:00five?
22:01What about poker?
22:02Okay.
22:03Um, what's your game?
22:04Texas Hold'em?
22:05Yeah, that sounds fun.
22:06Yeah?
22:07Yeah.
22:07Okay, so you're
22:08a real player.
22:09Yes, don't you
22:10know that by now?
22:11You want to play
22:12for real?
22:13Like, for money?
22:14Of course, for money.
22:16Okay.
22:17Now, you know
22:18what they say?
22:19Unlucky in love
22:20means that...
22:21We're both lucky
22:22at cards, so...
22:23Yeah, well,
22:24I'm afraid
22:24your luck
22:25is about to change.
22:31You know, Cain,
22:32I'm going to lay
22:33my cards on the table
22:34with you.
22:36But first,
22:38I'm going to make
22:40you drink.
22:42Myself one, too,
22:43so we can toast
22:45to our new partnership.
22:47So, I have to be
22:48honest with you,
22:48this whole
22:49Aristotle Dumas thing
22:50that's very,
22:51very impressive.
22:54You had us all.
22:56Um, but now
22:57that you're out
22:58from behind the curtain,
23:00I'm assuming you
23:00want to start saying
23:01there's no place
23:02I come and
23:03walk the golden
23:04brick road
23:05into Genoa City,
23:07am I right?
23:09Go on.
23:10You know,
23:11the power dynamic
23:12has shifted
23:12tremendously
23:13in Genoa City,
23:14you know that.
23:16Victor still runs
23:17Newman,
23:18Jack still runs
23:18Jabot.
23:19Oh, yeah,
23:20but there's a lot
23:21of twists and turns
23:22in the halls
23:23of the C-suites.
23:24So, what you're offering
23:26is what?
23:28I'm offering
23:29my expertise
23:30so you can have
23:32help navigating
23:33through the landmines.
23:35That sounds like
23:36my job.
23:36Oh, your job
23:37is legal.
23:39Mine is on a
23:39personal level,
23:40as needed,
23:42you know,
23:43so you can
23:43reintegrate
23:44into Genoa City.
23:45Well, it's a
23:48temporary arrangement
23:49at best.
23:50Is that really
23:50what you want?
23:52It doesn't matter
23:52what I want,
23:53it matters
23:53what you want.
23:54What do you
23:54think that is?
23:57You want
23:57Chancellor.
24:07Three jacks.
24:10Wow,
24:11that's really good.
24:13Yeah,
24:14you almost
24:14got me.
24:15I have a street.
24:18Wait,
24:19I haven't won
24:21a single hand.
24:22Yeah, I know.
24:23You haven't.
24:24I think we should
24:24quit because I feel
24:26like you haven't
24:26even started
24:27at Winters
24:27and I might have
24:28to garnish
24:28your wages already.
24:29That's very embarrassing.
24:30No, no, no.
24:31By the time
24:31the song comes up,
24:32you're going to be
24:33signing your paycheck
24:34over to me.
24:35Really?
24:35You think we're
24:36going to be
24:36playing that long?
24:38However long
24:38it takes for me
24:39to beat you,
24:39yeah.
24:41Did you play
24:42a lot of poker
24:42growing up?
24:44Yeah, I did.
24:45You know,
24:46if there was
24:46a card game
24:48to be played
24:48I knew it
24:49and I'll tell you
24:51my parents
24:52were so competitive.
24:54They would fight,
24:55you know,
24:56like most couples do
24:57but
24:57they never held
24:59a grudge
25:00and at the end
25:03they'd each
25:04rather be together
25:05than to be right.
25:07So,
25:08at the end
25:08they would always
25:09just kiss and make up.
25:11Wow,
25:12sounds like Amy
25:12and Jackson
25:13were very lucky
25:14in love.
25:16So,
25:17did you play
25:18a lot of games
25:18growing up?
25:20Uh,
25:21not cards
25:23but Devon and I
25:24played Monopoly
25:25a lot.
25:26But he loved
25:26all the properties
25:27and I loved
25:28the railroads.
25:30Sounds a lot
25:31like Cain.
25:32What do you mean?
25:35My old boss
25:36has the deeds
25:37to a lot of properties.
25:40Yeah,
25:41and I guess
25:41in a way
25:42he owns
25:43his own railroad.
25:44Maybe he built
25:46this to impress you.
25:49No,
25:49I doubt it.
25:50No?
25:51But no,
25:52Cain and I
25:52did,
25:52we played poker
25:53when the kids
25:54were sleeping
25:54and,
25:56uh,
25:56yeah,
25:57I got pretty good
25:57at it.
25:58He got good
25:58at not letting me
25:59know what he
26:00was holding
26:00and,
26:02you know,
26:02which is great
26:03in cards
26:03not great
26:04in a relationship.
26:06Sorry,
26:06I was supposed
26:07to be taking
26:08your mind
26:08off the guy.
26:09No,
26:09it's okay.
26:10You are.
26:10You're letting
26:10me win.
26:11It's okay.
26:13Pick up your cards.
26:17Oh.
26:17Okay.
26:19Sorry,
26:19we probably
26:20shouldn't even play.
26:21What?
26:22I have a pair
26:22of bases.
26:25Damn!
26:27Really?
26:28What?
26:28I'm sorry.
26:29I'm sorry.
26:30I just,
26:30you can't win.
26:32You can't.
26:33Okay,
26:33well,
26:34maybe we just
26:34need to change
26:35the game.
26:37Uh,
26:38how about
26:40we,
26:40uh,
26:41play a game
26:42with my speed?
26:44Connor
26:45has been asking
26:46what Victor
26:46and Nikki
26:47are doing
26:47for the 4th
26:48of July.
26:49He would like
26:50them to throw
26:50a barbecue
26:51at the ranch.
26:54Connor wants
26:55to have a party.
26:56Yeah.
26:57With a few
26:57of his friends.
26:58Oh,
26:58not just a few.
27:00No,
27:00no.
27:01He wants
27:01his entire
27:02soccer team,
27:03baseball team,
27:04a bunch of
27:04friends from school,
27:06including some
27:06girls.
27:09I want
27:10all those
27:10people
27:11and fireworks.
27:14Oh,
27:14it's a lot
27:14of stimulation,
27:15but he swears
27:16he'll be okay.
27:18Well,
27:19I believe
27:20he will be.
27:21Good.
27:22I do,
27:23too.
27:24I wasn't sure
27:24if I was
27:25going to have
27:25to talk you
27:25into it.
27:27You know,
27:28our son has
27:28come a long
27:30way with
27:31his OCD.
27:34Yeah.
27:34yet you're
27:38the only
27:39one obsessively
27:40checking your
27:40phone every
27:41time you think
27:41I'm not
27:42looking at
27:42him.
27:43Everybody is
27:44asleep at
27:45that chateau,
27:46including your
27:46father.
27:47Yeah,
27:47which is why
27:48I need to
27:49keep watch
27:49over things
27:49here until
27:50I can alert
27:51him of this
27:51potential threat.
27:58Okay,
27:59clearly you're
27:59not going to
28:00forget about
28:00this tonight,
28:01so why don't
28:01we just put
28:02together our
28:02collective energies
28:03and try to
28:04figure out
28:04what Duma's
28:05up to?
28:06Really?
28:08Really?
28:08Yeah,
28:09really.
28:10Clearly making
28:10small talk with
28:11you isn't
28:11working.
28:13Besides,
28:14if we want to
28:15avoid Victor's
28:16anger over the
28:17fact that we
28:17didn't release
28:18those hit pieces,
28:19the best thing
28:20we can do is
28:21try to find him
28:21some answers about
28:22what Duma's
28:23really up to.
28:25Or maybe we
28:26could even stop
28:26Duma from
28:28whatever he's
28:28got planned.
28:29Why would
28:31Phyllis think
28:32I have any
28:32interest in
28:33Chancellor?
28:34She did not
28:35get that from
28:36me.
28:37I didn't get
28:38it from her.
28:40I'm just that
28:41good.
28:42I know what
28:42you're thinking
28:42before you even
28:43say it.
28:44Or Billy Abbott
28:44said something to
28:45you.
28:45I'm never going
28:46to reveal a
28:47source.
28:50Okay.
28:51Let's just say
28:52for argument's
28:52sake, I am
28:53interested in
28:53Chancellor.
28:56How are you
28:57going to help
28:57me get it?
28:59Would you know
29:00that Billy and
29:00I were set to
29:01take Chancellor
29:02to another level
29:03when Jill sold
29:05the company to
29:06Victor, right?
29:07Yeah, Billy and
29:07I spoke about
29:08that.
29:09Could you talk
29:09to Jill?
29:10Tell me, since
29:11you can read
29:11my mind.
29:12I say yes.
29:14You know, I'm
29:14surprised that
29:15given Billy's
29:16track record,
29:16Jill would have
29:17ever trusted him
29:17with that company
29:18to begin with.
29:19Well, definitely.
29:20Definitely.
29:20If I would have
29:21been running it
29:22myself, Jill would
29:23have never had
29:23to sell it.
29:24You know what?
29:24You seem a little
29:25too eager to sell
29:26Billy out, someone
29:27you're supposed to
29:27be partnering with.
29:28Are you sure
29:28that's a strong
29:29argument?
29:29Let me tell you
29:30something about
29:30Billy.
29:31I had his back.
29:33He put a knife
29:34in my back
29:34on more than
29:35one occasion.
29:36So this is about
29:36revenge.
29:37You have something
29:37to prove.
29:38I don't have
29:38anything to prove.
29:40Not to Billy.
29:42Not to you.
29:44This is about
29:45what's best
29:46for Chancellor.
29:48And since I am
29:49the best, it's me.
29:58So do you have
29:59any threes?
30:03Go fish.
30:07I got a three.
30:11I win again.
30:12I win.
30:14Oh my God.
30:15You know what?
30:16Your reaction to
30:16winning is actually
30:17better than what
30:18you owe me.
30:20What?
30:21Really?
30:22So what?
30:23You want to stop
30:24now when I'm on
30:25the road?
30:25Lily, you're not
30:26going to let me
30:26dig my way out the
30:27hole?
30:27What?
30:28I destroy you at
30:29poker.
30:29You destroy me at
30:30go fish.
30:31Okay, but it shows
30:32who the better
30:32strategist is.
30:33But I don't want
30:34to rub it in your
30:34face.
30:34Okay, that's so
30:36big of you.
30:37Yeah.
30:37But I'm going to
30:39pay my debt, okay?
30:40I won't take any
30:42charity.
30:42It's not charity,
30:43okay?
30:44You really helped
30:45me take my mind
30:45off things, so I
30:46owe you.
30:48Man.
30:50You know, aside
30:51from the total
30:53nervous breakdown
30:54that my claustrophobia
30:55gave me inside
30:57that hedge maze,
30:59you know, I have
31:00a really good time
31:01here.
31:01You know, great
31:02food, even
31:04better wine, and
31:06in some cases,
31:07the best company.
31:09This is the
31:10most fun I had
31:11since I've left
31:12Genoa City, so
31:12thank you, Lily.
31:15Yeah, I know.
31:16I don't want the
31:17night to end like
31:18this.
31:18Me neither.
31:21Well, one of us
31:22needs to leave this
31:22train with bragging
31:23rights.
31:24Okay, so, uh,
31:26one more hand?
31:28Okay, one more
31:29hand.
31:29Okay.
31:29No, no, no, no,
31:30no, no, no, no.
31:30I'm going to deal
31:32so I can turn my
31:33luck around.
31:34Okay?
31:35It's my turn.
31:35Here's your wish.
31:39We need to figure
31:40out what game
31:42Du Ma is playing.
31:44He already
31:45showed his cards
31:46by buying up
31:47all the local
31:48real estate.
31:49But why?
31:51You know,
31:52the man's mysterious,
31:54starting with his
31:55identity.
31:55Yeah.
31:57Tried to figure out
31:58his identity.
31:59And then went to
32:00Dad, and he tried
32:01to get him to
32:01back off Billy?
32:02That Du Ma
32:03was Tucker McCall.
32:06It was an educated
32:07guess, but your dad
32:08did seem to know
32:09who the billionaire
32:10recluse really is.
32:12He seemed to know,
32:13and I tried to find out,
32:14but he was not
32:15in the sharing mood.
32:17Well, Pop seldom is.
32:20But it would help
32:21to know who we're
32:22dealing with.
32:23We don't know,
32:24so we need to focus
32:24on what we do know.
32:25We really do love
32:28a good mystery,
32:29don't you?
32:29With all due respect
32:30to the adventures
32:32of Alexander Du Ma,
32:34this is all starting
32:35to feel like an
32:35Agatha Christie novel.
32:38To solve a mystery,
32:39you need to identify
32:40means,
32:41motive,
32:41opportunity.
32:44Well, Du Ma
32:44is definitely
32:45a man of means.
32:46And he has
32:47the opportunity.
32:48He's buying up
32:49all of his property
32:49while everyone
32:50has left Genoa City.
32:52But what is
32:52his motive?
32:54Is he planning
32:55to bring his operations
32:56to Genoa City?
32:57Well, to do that,
32:58he wouldn't have
32:59to purchase
32:59these particular properties.
33:01You know about mysteries,
33:02but I do know
33:03a little bit
33:04about real estate,
33:05and it's all about
33:07location,
33:08location,
33:09location.
33:10And in this case,
33:12these are buildings
33:14surrounding businesses
33:15owned by the
33:16Newmans and the Abbots.
33:18And surrounding
33:18is something
33:20that you do
33:20to an enemy.
33:21before you go in
33:22for the kill.
33:26I have a killer instinct.
33:28And you know
33:29that about me.
33:30That's what you need
33:31to run Chancellor.
33:32Do you know?
33:33Yes.
33:34I do.
33:35You know I do.
33:36Listen,
33:37Victor bought
33:38the company
33:39so he could
33:40give it to his wife
33:41so she could
33:42play CEO
33:43all day long.
33:44I know how
33:45to run Chancellor.
33:46You do?
33:47Yes, I do.
33:48You know what?
33:49You know what I do?
33:50I would hire
33:51Amanda.
33:53I would hire her.
33:54But not as an attorney.
33:56I'd put her
33:56in a top
33:57executive position.
33:59Interesting.
34:00You gave me
34:01no indication
34:01that you were
34:02so unhappy
34:02in your current position.
34:04Yeah, Phyllis
34:04floated this idea
34:05by me,
34:06but I expressed
34:06no interest
34:08whatsoever.
34:09And yet you
34:09arranged for your
34:10friend to be here
34:10to pitch herself
34:11to lead Chancellor
34:12and to suggest
34:13you for a supporting
34:13role.
34:14You're right.
34:14Phyllis is
34:15my friend,
34:17one of my
34:17best friends,
34:18and she has been
34:19through a lot
34:20this year,
34:20so I just think
34:23she's a little
34:23desperate.
34:23I'm not desperate.
34:24I'm not desperate.
34:26I'm not desperate.
34:30I've never been
34:32desperate.
34:33There's no
34:34fear in me.
34:35I mean,
34:36I don't smell
34:37a fear.
34:37Take a whiff.
34:39I'll take your
34:39word for it.
34:39Okay, good.
34:41What I am
34:41is bold.
34:43I'm fearless.
34:44I'm intrepid.
34:45That I will
34:46confirm,
34:47but I want to
34:47go on record
34:48as saying
34:48I love my job.
34:50It's okay
34:50to be ambitious.
34:51For the record,
34:52I think you
34:52would make
34:52an excellent
34:53executive.
34:54Yes,
34:54she would.
34:55So we're
34:56in agreement.
34:58What you
34:59should do
34:59is make
35:00some brilliant
35:00move
35:01to get
35:02Chancellor
35:02back from
35:03Victor,
35:04and we
35:05would literally
35:06be in business.
35:07well,
35:10I am
35:11very sorry
35:12to burst
35:12your bubble,
35:13Phyllis,
35:13but if I
35:13were interested
35:14in acquiring
35:15Chancellor,
35:15it would be
35:16with a very
35:17different
35:17endgame
35:17in mind.
35:26Oh,
35:26my gosh.

35:35No,
35:36I'm just
35:36tired.

35:51going to
35:52fall asleep
35:52as soon

36:18I will.
36:19Good night,
36:20Damien.
36:21Good night,
36:22Lily.
36:22What is
36:34your end
36:34game?
36:37You know,
36:37it's been
36:38my practice
36:38not to
36:39comment on
36:40corporate
36:40takeovers,
36:41hypothetical
36:41or
36:42otherwise.
36:45Okay.
36:47We like
36:48your secrets,
36:49I get it.
36:49Yeah.
36:51I
36:51understand.
36:52So everything
36:53that we say
36:54is between
36:55the three of
36:55us and
36:55you know
36:56it's going
36:56to die
36:56with me.
36:57It will
36:58die with
36:59me.
36:59So how
37:00about
37:00this?
37:01I know
37:04the
37:05hypothetical
37:06company
37:07that you'd
37:09like to
37:10take over
37:10and I
37:11have
37:12intel
37:13to help
37:15you
37:15hypothetically
37:17make it
37:19yours.
37:21Hmm.
37:23You know
37:24what,
37:24Phyllis,
37:24I admire
37:26your directness
37:27and your
37:28ambition.
37:29And as you
37:29so clearly
37:30stated your
37:31fearlessness,
37:32I always
37:32have.
37:34So to you,
37:35Phyllis,
37:36maybe there
37:37is a place
37:38for you
37:38in my
37:38organization,
37:40but I'm
37:41going to
37:41sleep on it.
37:43It's time
37:43for me to
37:43turn in.
37:46I'd advise
37:47you both
37:47not to stay
37:47out too late.
37:48Those clouds
37:49look pretty
37:49threatening.
37:51Great.
37:52John,
37:53well,
37:53it was a
37:54nice talk.
37:55See you
37:56tomorrow.
37:57We'll have
37:57another one.
37:58Oh.
37:58What?
38:05What?
38:07You want me
38:08to say thank
38:08you,
38:08thank you
38:09a million
38:09times,
38:09thank you?
38:10What the
38:10hell is
38:11wrong with
38:11you?
38:13What are
38:13you talking
38:14about?
38:14I'm trying
38:15to get a
38:16job.
38:16By
38:16jeopardizing
38:17mine?
38:18Do you
38:18ever think
38:19about anyone
38:20other than
38:21yourself?
38:21it's clear
38:26that Dumas's
38:26intent is
38:27less than
38:28friendly.
38:29Victor prides
38:30himself on
38:31always being
38:31ten steps
38:32ahead of
38:32any rival.
38:33But he
38:34didn't see
38:34this one
38:34coming.
38:36There's
38:36no way
38:36that Victor
38:37will allow
38:37anybody to
38:38buy so
38:38much property
38:39around
38:39Newman.
38:39and his
38:42initial
38:42suspicions
38:43was this
38:43was all
38:44about
38:45Chancellor.
38:46Maybe.
38:47I just
38:48feel like
38:48it's about
38:49more than
38:49just one
38:49company.
38:51I mean,
38:51this is a
38:52major move.
38:53And whatever
38:54his end
38:54game is,
38:55it is clear
38:56that he's
38:58bringing it
38:58to Genoa
38:59City.
38:59to Genoa
39:01City.
