00:00Good morning.
00:18Good morning.
00:20What an incredible view.
00:23Yes, it is.
00:30Good morning.
01:00Good morning.
01:10Okay, girl, what the heck are you doing?
01:14You know, I'm sure the French have a word for it.
01:18Yeah, hopefully it's closer to voyeur than liaison or affair.
01:23Ah, ladies.
01:26Good morning.
01:28Looks like you certainly are having one.
01:31Nothing like a workout on play air, as the French would say.
01:34Huh, I knew there was a word for it.
01:36It's a beautiful day, despite that crazy rainstorm that came through last night.
01:40Yeah, the way the rain was pelting, the roof and the windows of the train, it sounded like hell.
01:46Yeah, it was so loud, it kept me and Billy up.
01:49You know, I wonder if there was any flooding in the lowlands.
01:52I don't know.
01:53I just hope the lightning didn't damage any of the cell towers.
01:56We were already having a problem, and if we want to get a call out, that's the last thing we need.
02:00Have you guys had any cell service?
02:01No luck here.
02:02Claire, I hate being cut off.
02:04I'm sure Claire's wondering why I haven't called.
02:06Yeah, Nate, too.
02:08Quite a few people back home must be wondering the same thing.
02:11But I'm sure Genoa City is surviving just fine.
02:15Hey.
02:23Ongs, I thought the two of you could really use this.
02:27It's a psalm, black tea, it's the strongest there is, and I added cream and sugar for an extra pick-me-up.
02:35Thank you, Esther.
02:37We need all of the strength that we can get right now.
02:41Well, how is Cole?
02:42Is he still in the hospital in Chicago, or did you bring him back with you?
02:48Oh, we just came back to check on Johnny and Katie, pick up some fresh clothes.
02:54He was sleeping peacefully when we left him, and we plan to be back in Chicago before he wakes up.
03:00Oh, but he's getting better, right?
03:03The doctors are treating it aggressively, but so far there really hasn't been any change.
03:09It's pneumonia?
03:10He was diagnosed with Legionnaire's disease.
03:14It's a very serious form of pneumonia.
03:16Oh, no, I'm really sorry to hear that.
03:19It's okay.
03:20He's in the right place, and he can beat this.
03:25He's gonna get better.
03:29I'm sorry.
03:30You know, it's highly possible the storm may matter's worse.
03:44Yeah, I wouldn't be surprised.
03:46But how much worse can it get?
03:47I haven't had any cell phone service since I got here.
03:50I haven't been able to reach Nate once.
03:52I hate being cut off like this.
03:54It's like we dropped off the face of the earth.
03:55I mean, maybe now that Dumas' identity has been revealed, he will help us connect with the outside world.
04:00I don't know.
04:01At this point, I wouldn't count on our hosts for anything except more fancy catering and shocking surprises.
04:07You know, I did hear some new guests come on board last night.
04:11Mm-hmm.
04:11Yeah, you're right.
04:12I was still in the maze when the Baldwin's, Abby Newman, and Detective Chancellor arrived.
04:18Chance is here.
04:19That's strange.
04:20I thought my dad said that Lauren and Michael declined their invitation.
04:24Apparently, they said Dumas, or Kane, was insistent.
04:29Oh, I wonder why.
04:31The more, the merrier.
04:33Well, I guess we will find out soon.
04:36We're not.
04:36But in the meantime, I'm going to take a dip in the pool and cool off.
04:46Audra?
04:48What is going on?
04:50What do you mean?
04:53Just because you and Nate haven't talked doesn't mean he's not faithfully waiting for you back at home.
04:58Esther, we appreciate your concern.
05:04It's just been a really long day.
05:06We're just a little on edge.
05:09We're worried about Cole right now, so...
05:12Well, I hope you know that he's in my prayers.
05:15And I'm sure that it's just a matter of time before the doctors find the right medication.
05:21And then he'll be on the road to a full recovery.
05:25Yes, he's in good hands right now.
05:28And I know he's going to be okay.
05:31He has to be.
05:33Well, let me know if I can get you anything, okay?
05:42Hey, um, I don't mean to intrude, but is everything okay?
05:46It's Cole.
05:48The doctors in Chicago have diagnosed him with Legionnaire's disease.
05:53I'm sorry to hear that.
05:55They've tried several treatment protocols, but nothing seems to be working.
05:59Even the most aggressive antibiotics.
06:01So we're just...
06:03You know, we're just a little worried right now.
06:05Okay.
06:07Well, look.
06:09You have to give the drugs time to work.
06:11Sometimes that can take weeks.
06:14Were they able to bring his fever down?
06:17It's not as high as it was, thank God.
06:20Good.
06:21That's a good sign.
06:21But it's still too high.
06:23The doctor said so.
06:25He's not on the ventilator, right?
06:27No.
06:27That's good as well.
06:29Look, sometimes it's just about finding the right combination of antibiotics.
06:34And it sounds like the doctors are doing all the right things.
06:37I overheard one of the nurses saying that the doctors think they might not have caught it
06:43in time, that that's why he's not responding to any of the medication.
06:46It's true.
06:48Legionnaire's response better to treatment when it's first detected early.
06:52But I wouldn't jump to the conclusion that it's too late.
06:56There's still time for him to respond.
06:58It's just a matter of finding the right combination of meds.
07:02You really think that?
07:03Yes.
07:04With hospitalization and the right treatment, healthy people usually recover from this disease.
07:09And Cole's a strong guy.
07:12No underlying conditions, right?
07:15No.
07:16That's what his care team told us, too.
07:19And trust the doctors.
07:20I'm sure Victor found the best in the field.
07:23Yes.
07:25I want to be strong right now, and I'm trying really hard to be strong.
07:29I actually can't.
07:31I actually can't.
07:32I have to go.
07:34I have to get some air.
07:37I will be right back.
07:38I'll see you at home.
07:39You know, um, I think you could use some air as well.
07:54You make it sound like Nate has something to worry about regarding my faithfulness.
08:00Does he?
08:01There's nothing going on.
08:05Okay, no, wait.
08:06Backtrack.
08:06There is something going on.
08:10Kyle and I are hoping to pitch to Ma, Kane, on the details of our cosmetics were publicity sent today.
08:18Other than that, there's nothing going on.
08:21That's it.
08:23There's nothing between us beyond that.
08:29Audra, I saw you checking out Kyle.
08:32And I get it.
08:33It's not that he doesn't have a lot to check out.
08:34But, trust me, my interest in Kyle is strictly business.
08:41Whose business?
08:43What do you mean?
08:45Well, are you forgetting that you told me about the stipulation Victor made about funding for Bronte seducing Kyle away from Claire?
08:52Okay, but I also told you I would never do anything to jeopardize my relationship with Nate.
08:59Well, I hope that's true.
09:01Things are finally getting back on track with you.
09:03And I'm not just referring to Nate.
09:05You have for Bronte to consider, too.
09:07And if you're trying to play Victor, that could blow up in your face, too.
09:12Okay, that is my number one priority.
09:15Everything that I'm doing is for the benefit of my company.
09:19I don't know.
09:20It just seems like high stakes, high risk.
09:24Playing off Kyle Abbott and Victor Newman?
09:27If you ask me, you're playing with fire.
09:30Just please give me some credit.
09:34I have everything under control.
09:36I know exactly what I'm doing.
09:38I am the shot caller in all of this.
09:40And I promise you, nothing will happen that I don't control.
09:44Okay.
09:53Hey.
09:56You know what?
09:57You were right.
09:58I did need to take a deep breath or two myself.
10:02Yeah, I got the feeling you could use the privacy, too.
10:06Lester means well.
10:08Yeah, concern can be a bit much.
10:12And I didn't mean to butt in this well.
10:15No, no.
10:16Your concern was very helpful.
10:18I mean, I really appreciate you giving your perspective.
10:22And, you know, giving us some hope.
10:24Of course.
10:27I know the fear you and Claire must be feeling right now.
10:31All the uncertainty.
10:34It's not easy.
10:35There's just this knot in my stomach that I can't get rid of.
10:41My own concerns.
10:43And I hate seeing her carrying around all of this turmoil.
10:48You know, seeing her father hooked up in that hospital.
10:53The father that...
10:55The father that she finally found again after all these years.
10:59Just, it breaks my heart, Nate.
11:02She got the mother she finally found as well.
11:06I see how hard you're working to stay strong for her.
11:10But I also know how hard this is, if not more so on you.
11:13And sometimes it helps to talk to someone who's a little removed from the situation.
11:21So I'm here to listen.
11:23Absorb some of that pain if I can.
11:25You know, you really were a great doctor.
11:29Her bedside manner was so compassionate and caring.
11:33Clearly, you have not lost your touch.
11:38It's part of the job I hope I never lose.
11:41But you don't have to work in medicine to empathize or lend an ear.
11:44Do you ever miss it?
11:48Do you ever regret switching careers?
11:55Hello again, ladies.
11:57And if I join you?
11:58Do we mind, Atra?
12:03None at all.
12:04Please do.
12:14Kyle.
12:15You know, I was thinking this morning would be a good time to approach De Ma about our game plan for our Cosmetics War publicity stunt.
12:25You know, get him on board with our strategy and the rollout.
12:29What do you think?
12:30Okay, can we please stop calling the guy De Ma?
12:33Now that we know his true identity, we can drop the pretentious pseudonym.
12:36Fine.
12:38Shall we get Carter to arrange a time first with Mr. Ashby?
12:43No.
12:44Why not?
12:46Now that the true identity of the most mysterious man in the world has been revealed as Kane Ashby,
12:53we should scrap the whole plan.
12:55Why in the world would you think that?
13:11Claire.
13:12Claire.
13:13Claire.
13:14Claire.
13:14Are you okay?
13:15Claire.
13:16Look at me.
13:17Look at me.
13:18Stay clean.
13:19Look at me.
13:20Are you okay?
13:22Claire, slow down.
13:23Take slower, deeper breaths, okay?
13:26I can't.
13:26Yes, you can.
13:27Yes, you can.
13:28Just close your eyes.
13:29Close your eyes.
13:30No.
13:31Close your eyes.
13:32Close your eyes.
13:32I am right here with you, okay?
13:33I got you.
13:34Just close your eyes.
13:37Okay.
13:38Okay.
13:39Okay.
13:39Now close your lips.
13:41Okay?
13:42Four seconds.
13:42Breathe in on my cow, all right?
13:44One, two, three, four, that's it, okay?
13:51Now hold.
13:52Now five seconds.
13:53Breathe out.
13:54Five, four, three, slow down.
13:58Slow down.
13:59Slow down, okay?
14:00Okay.
14:01Now, again, on your own count, just stop.
14:04But take it, take it nice and slow.
14:06Take it nice and slow, but keep going, okay?
14:10There you go.
14:10No, that's right.
14:15Slow, deep breaths.
14:17Keep bursting your lips.
14:17You got it.
14:25There you go.
14:31I knew you could do it.
14:34You okay?
14:40Better than I was.
14:46Better is good.
14:48I like that.
14:53That was terrifying.
14:59I felt like I was having a heartache.
15:01I couldn't breathe.
15:04Was that your first panic attack?
15:06That's what that was, yeah?
15:10Yeah.
15:11How did you know what to do?
15:13How did you know how to say those things?
15:18I've been there before, so I know the feeling.
15:22I suffered massive anxiety throughout my teen years.
15:27I had to teach myself how to control it.
15:29And as captain of the football team, nothing is less cool than having a panic attack for the big game.
15:40You were the captain.
15:42Yep.
15:44My whole team and school were depending on me.
15:48Talk about pressure, huh?
15:49I rarely know you, but panic is the last thing I'd expect from you.
15:56I wanted to manage it, okay?
15:58I had to.
16:01But I'm...
16:02I'm not concerned right now.
16:04You are.
16:07What happened?
16:12You sure you don't want to talk about it?
16:14No, I'm talking about it is what made this happen.
16:19So I think talking about it would just bring on another attack.
16:22I think what I need to do is not, not talk about it, not think about it, if that's possible.
16:30It's not just possible, it's doable.
16:34Because, lucky you, I'm here to help.
16:39If you really want to know, there have been more than a few times when I wondered if I made the right call.
16:49I know.
16:50I know it was a hard decision to walk away from such a meaningful career.
16:54One that you were so good at.
16:58Recently, I've become close friends with a woman who was diagnosed with leukemia.
17:02I've gotten very involved in helping her find treatment options and following her case closely.
17:11She's lucky.
17:13I feel lucky to be able to help.
17:16I'm still fascinated with the miracle of modern medicine.
17:21There's something very satisfying about the healing process that does make me miss working in the field.
17:26You know, I heard through the grapevine that you found out that you have a brother.
17:33Half brother, but, uh, yes.
17:36And the woman I was referring to is his mother, Amy.
17:40That's amazing, Nate.
17:42It's wonderful that you've become so close.
17:47I wouldn't go that far just yet.
17:49It's still a work in progress with my brother, Damien.
17:52You know, finding out I have a brother I never knew about is a life-altering experience.
18:01Although I have grown to adore his mother.
18:05Oh.
18:06So, maybe you're thinking about getting back into medicine.
18:11I'm happy working with my family at Winters.
18:14And my brother will be joining us there once he's back from Nace.
18:17Hmm, well, take it from me.
18:19There are many benefits to being in business with a sibling.
18:23Hmm.
18:24You and Nick do seem to see eye-to-eye on most things, the human enterprises.
18:29You and Adam.
18:30Well, of course, depending on the sibling, there are certainly different challenges.
18:36I'm looking forward to working with my brother.
18:39And I think he's looking forward to it as well.
18:43Well, then I'm happy for you.
18:45Tell me something, Nate.
18:49I'll try.
18:51In our time at Newman, I mean, we did some great things.
18:57We were a really good team.
19:00We were.
19:02Until we weren't.
19:04I have to wonder if there's still a little undercurrent of tension between us.
19:10I mean, am I wrong in thinking that maybe you're still harboring some resentment about the way things ended?
19:21Isn't it obvious?
19:23Our plan is far less promising now that we know who Dumas really is.
19:26The mystery is over.
19:27The guy's still a billionaire.
19:30That hasn't changed.
19:31We could use the status to our advantage.
19:34When his true identity comes out and reporters start digging into Cain Ashby's bio,
19:39I just don't see it.
19:42I mean, having that guy choose which fragrance he wants to gift a woman in his life, it hardly has the same impact.
19:47But why not?
19:49Plenty of women would love to wear the fragrance preferred by a single, handsome billionaire.
19:56Okay, Audra, I'm not buying it.
19:58And neither is Jabot.
19:59I mean, the guy used to work for us.
20:01There's no way his opinion won't appear tainted and biased.
20:04And you need to go back to the drawing board.
20:07I think you're making way too hasty of a decision.
20:14You're fighting a losing battle.
20:15I'm hearing my family and the Numas both agree that this trip is a total bust.
20:20It takes a lot for them to agree on anything.
20:22But it isn't over yet.
20:24We don't know what this Dumas, sorry, Cain, has planned for us.
20:31Whatever happens, they're heading back to Genoa City as soon as possible.
20:35Well, didn't they read their itineraries?
20:38It says this is all culminating in a very special evening.
20:42And after everything that's taken place, I, for one, don't want to miss it.
20:47Sally, back me up.
20:49You're staying, right?
20:52I don't know.
20:54This whole experience has just felt like a weird game of smoke and mirrors.
20:58I get what people are frustrated.
21:00We've all been pulled away from work.
21:01Billy and I delayed the launch of Abbott Communications.
21:04And you had put everything on hold for Verbronte
21:06to get this mystery man, Dumas, a part of your publicity stunt for what?
21:12To find out that half the guests already knew him?
21:15I don't know.
21:16It just seems like you put on this whole show
21:17so that they'd all be his friend whenever he showed up back at home.
21:20Exactly.
21:21Who does that?
21:23Well, I don't think this trip is a total loss.
21:26I think this Cain guy can still be an asset,
21:28and I want to capitalize on that.
21:30I don't know.
21:32The sooner we get out of here, the better, in my opinion.
21:37I'm with Audra.
21:40I'm going to stick around.
21:41I try not to hold on to anger from the past.
21:53What good does it do?
21:54But if you're specifically asking me if I've forgiven you
21:58for doubting my intentions with your father,
22:01the answer's yes.
22:03I let that go a long time ago.
22:05I hoped that was the case.
22:09You know,
22:10I carry around a lot of regret
22:13about the way things fell apart between us.
22:17It wasn't the outcome I hoped for either.
22:19You and I, we, uh,
22:22we have known each other a long time.
22:25Long before we even got together,
22:28we were friends.
22:29You know,
22:31it just made me so sad that
22:33when things ended between us
22:35that I,
22:36I lost that friendship, too.
22:40Makes me sad, too.
22:44But,
22:45I think things worked out the way they were supposed to.
22:50You found happiness with Cole.
22:52He's a good man,
22:54and you deserve that.
22:55Yes, he really is,
22:56and
22:56I appreciate all of your support.
23:00I just hope and pray that,
23:03you know,
23:03this nightmare will be over soon,
23:05and Cole will come out of this fully recovered.
23:08Stay strong, Victoria.
23:09I'm worried about Claire.
23:11I mean,
23:11I shouldn't have let her run off like that.
23:13I,
23:13I don't like her
23:14walking around with,
23:17with all of this turmoil,
23:18you know?
23:19Kyle's in these, too, right?
23:22Yes.
23:23I mean,
23:23the timing is very unfortunate.
23:25He's totally unreachable.
23:26at a time when she desperately needs to lean on him.
23:29I mean,
23:30he's her first love.
23:33She needs him to be her rock.
23:35What about another friend?
23:37Someone to just listen?
23:39I wish
23:40she could really use someone like that right now.
23:42So what were you doing
23:45up here at this hour anyway?
23:47I was, uh,
23:48on my nightly run.
23:50It's a habit I formed years ago.
23:51It was a stress-coping mechanism.
23:54A few people out at this hour.
23:56Even in L.A.,
23:57the weather is
23:58generally cooler and crisp
24:01at this time of evening.
24:02Hmm.
24:05When you just happened to see me?
24:06Pure chance.
24:10I-I saw you
24:11hurrying into the park,
24:12heading to the overlook,
24:13but
24:14it was...
24:16it was obvious
24:18you were upset,
24:19so I thought I'd come and check up on you.
24:22I'm glad you did.
24:25Who knows what would have happened
24:26if you hadn't found me when you did.
24:28I really felt like I was gonna pass out.
24:31I'm glad I could help.
24:32Well, thank you.
24:38But
24:38you don't have to worry about me anymore.
24:40I'm fine.
24:42Really,
24:43you can go back to your run.
24:46Next time I see you,
24:47Vespers on me.
24:50Well, if...
24:51if you're buying,
24:53then there's
24:53no better time than the present.
24:57Right now?
24:58I'm game if you are.
25:00You can probably use one right now.
25:01and
25:02I
25:03don't have
25:04anywhere else to be,
25:06so
25:06what do you say?
25:12I say,
25:13let's do it.
25:18Twist my arm.
25:20Can't pass up a free Vespa.
25:22I
25:22can't pass up a free Vespa.
25:27Billy,
25:27I thought you would change your mind about staying.
25:29I mean,
25:31I gotta stay, Sally.
25:32I gotta find out what Kane's agenda is.
25:34Yeah, look,
25:35I don't blame you for being curious about what he's up to,
25:37but can't we just do that from home?
25:39You could read about it online
25:40or hear about it from Jack
25:41as opposed to being here on his turf
25:43playing his games.
25:44I think we should stay,
25:46at least for Kane's special evening he has planned.
25:50Yeah,
25:51but for all we know,
25:52it's just cocktails and dancing to live music.
25:55Well,
25:55wasn't your main goal for being here
25:56to pitch a perfume?
25:58If that's not happening,
25:59why bother stay?
26:01Okay,
26:01I may not be as familiar with this Kane guy
26:04as many of you are,
26:05but I refuse to give up on the possibility
26:08that he can be beneficial to my company.
26:10Look,
26:11I know I don't know the whole history
26:13between you and Kane,
26:14but from what you've told me,
26:15it doesn't seem like you're particularly close.
26:17Look,
26:20my relationship with Kane is complicated,
26:23right?
26:23But as Genoa City's reigning champ
26:25of second chances,
26:26I got to respect what he did
26:28to get back in the good graces of everyone.
26:31I mean,
26:32this is a hell of a return,
26:33is it not?
26:34Or it's just some smokescreen
26:36for some shady business deal.
26:39Look,
26:40whether we decide to stay or go,
26:42it could be a moot point
26:44because we might not have a choice.
26:48What?
26:49Why?
26:50I ran into Carter on the way here,
26:53and he told me that the storm last night
26:54wiped out the tracks
26:55and the road up to the chateau,
26:56so until that's cleared,
26:58we might not be going anywhere anytime soon.
27:13Oh,
27:13it looks like we have our picketables.
27:15You decide
27:17and I'll grab the drinks.
27:20Wait, wait.
27:21It's supposed to be my treat.
27:24You get the next round.
27:25Hey, Mom.
27:45Hey, how are you?
27:48Where are you?
27:49Are you feeling any better?
27:50Much better than I was.
27:54Good.
27:56Good.
27:59I'm not trying to crowd you.
28:00I know you said you needed some space.
28:02I just wanted to make sure that you're okay.
28:05I'm fine.
28:06I just needed to clear my head.
28:09Ah, yes.
28:10I know.
28:11Me too.
28:14So, um,
28:15are you home now?
28:17Actually,
28:18I ran into a friend
28:19who helped me calm down.
28:20Oh,
28:22that's,
28:23that's great.
28:24Um,
28:25I think that's what we both needed
28:27just to,
28:28um,
28:29find someone to calm our nerves.
28:32Thankfully,
28:32I was able to talk through
28:34some things with Nate,
28:35too.
28:36I'm glad.
28:38Um,
28:39well,
28:39we're just grabbing a drink here
28:40and I'll be home soon.
28:42All right.
28:42I will see you there.
28:44I love you.
28:45I love you, Mom.
28:46I'm guessing
28:55you haven't made time for eating
28:57or felt much like it.
28:58You are right
29:00on both counts.
29:02Were you able to reach Claire?
29:03Yes,
29:04I just talked to her.
29:05Um,
29:06she's doing much better.
29:08She ran into someone
29:09who helped calm her down.
29:11Really?
29:11Well,
29:12look at that.
29:13Sounds like exactly
29:14what you were hoping for.
29:16Yes,
29:16exactly.
29:17I'm just really,
29:18I'm curious
29:20who came to her rescue.
29:23Here
29:24you go.
29:27Thanks.
29:27Just
29:27what the doctor ordered.
29:35Wait,
29:36did I,
29:37did I say
29:38the wrong
29:39saying?
29:42I did,
29:42didn't I?
29:43What,
29:43what is it,
29:45Claire?
29:46Are you
29:47facing some sort
29:49of a medical issue
29:50or?
29:54Um,
29:55not me.
29:56My dad.
29:58Wow.
29:59I'm sorry.
30:01I didn't mean
30:02to upset you again.
30:04It's fine.
30:06Do you have no way
30:07of knowing?
30:09Let's not talk about it.
30:10understood.
30:12Yeah.
30:13Understood.
30:18A toast
30:18to the healing powers
30:21of Vespers.
30:23And to my good fortune
30:25of running into you
30:26tonight.
30:28I think I was
30:29a lucky one.
30:30first no self-service
30:38and now we may
30:39have no escape.
30:40I'm starting to feel
30:41like a hostage,
30:42stuck here against my will
30:43and cut off from the rest
30:44of the world.
30:44Come on,
30:45escape,
30:46hostage.
30:47Look at this place.
30:48We're in paradise.
30:50Let's make the best
30:51of the circumstances
30:52and take it all in
30:53like that amazing view
30:54and that pool
30:55over there.
30:57It's calling my name.
30:58Is it calling Sally's
30:59name too?
31:00Hmm?
31:02Last one
31:03and has to go
31:03get mimosas?
31:05Fine.
31:07But we're getting
31:07the expensive champagne.
31:09Oh, heck yeah,
31:10we are.
31:12I can't believe
31:13we're stuck here.
31:14I mean,
31:14just trapped
31:15for who knows how long.
31:17Hey,
31:17would it be so bad
31:18if we at least
31:19had internet
31:20or cell phone service?
31:22I have so much
31:23on my plate right now.
31:24I can't just fall off
31:25the map like this.
31:26I know,
31:26and I need to get in touch
31:27with Claire,
31:27see how her dad's doing.
31:29Yeah,
31:29I'm sure Claire's
31:30worried about him.
31:32But, you know,
31:32Cole's a healthy guy.
31:34I'm sure he's making
31:34a full recovery by now.
31:35Yeah, I hope so,
31:36but Claire's probably
31:37wondering why we
31:38haven't been able to talk.
31:40Cole's gonna be fine.
31:41He's gonna pull through.
31:42Just think positively, Kyle.
31:45I would
31:45if I could hear
31:46Claire's voice
31:47even for a few minutes.
31:50I know something
31:51that might cheer you up.
31:56Ta-da!
31:59Is that what
32:00I think it is?
32:01It is
32:01Chippo's
32:02birthday suit sunscreen.
32:04I never leave
32:05home without it.
32:06Still a top seller.
32:08I admit
32:09it is
32:10the best
32:10on the market.
32:11For now.
32:13But you better
32:13not go to the press
32:14and tell him
32:15I said that
32:15because I will
32:16firmly flat out
32:17deny it.
32:17Of course you will.
32:18And it's only the best
32:20until Vibrante's
32:21son Caroline
32:22hits the market.
32:22So do you say.
32:27Do you mind?
32:34I'm starting to think
32:35you don't really live in L.A.
32:38You're in Genoa City
32:39so often
32:39I have to wonder.
32:40Oh it's funny
32:42you should bring that up.
32:44My whole world
32:45has turned completely
32:46on its head
32:47the last few months.
32:49I know it's
32:49it's nothing
32:51compared to
32:52what you're facing
32:53right now
32:53but I do
32:55have
32:55a few crucial things
32:57to work out myself.
32:59Sounds serious?
33:00Oh
33:01just
33:01where I'm gonna
33:03work and live.
33:05Details like that.
33:07I lost my job
33:08in L.A.
33:09so
33:09I need a new gig
33:11but
33:12where?
33:15Oh I'm sorry
33:16to hear that.
33:17For the record
33:18I don't think
33:19what you're dealing
33:20with is really
33:21that much less stressful
33:22than what I'm going through.
33:23It's just different
33:24that's all.
33:27Thanks.
33:28It is stressful.
33:29I feel like
33:31I'm just
33:32stuck
33:34you know
33:34trying to figure out
33:36what my next move is.
33:38Is that why
33:38you haven't gone back
33:39to L.A. yet
33:39to look for work?
33:41I'm not even sure
33:41I want to go back there.
33:43I'm liking the
33:44low-key vibe
33:45of Genoa City
33:46versus the
33:47Tinseltown glam
33:49of L.A.
33:51So
33:51what is it
33:52that you
33:53think you want to do?
33:54You want to
33:54stay in the
33:55real estate
33:56investment business
33:58or
33:58change careers
34:00altogether?
34:01For now
34:01I think I'm
34:02sticking with
34:03real estate.
34:04It's
34:04what I know
34:05and I am
34:06pretty successful
34:07at it.
34:08And do you think
34:09you could be
34:10successful at it
34:11in Genoa City?
34:12Maybe.
34:14I did just make
34:15a connection
34:15with the company here.
34:16Oh which one?
34:17Well
34:18they're
34:19pretty new
34:19to the scene.
34:21They're buying up
34:21key properties
34:23in town.
34:23I'm just
34:23I'm really hoping
34:25it turns into
34:26something for me.
34:26Well I'll put out
34:30some positive vibes
34:31that it all works
34:31out for you.
34:32Thanks I will take
34:33all of the positive
34:34vibes I can get
34:35and
34:35I'll put a few
34:37out there
34:38for you and
34:38your dad
34:39whatever issue
34:43he's facing.
34:44Thanks yeah
34:44much needed.
34:53I'm really grateful
34:55that you found me
34:57tonight.
34:59I think we found
35:01each other.
35:01you knew just
35:10what I needed
35:11and you even
35:13remembered my
35:13favorite cake.
35:16I'm glad it helped
35:17but I am sure
35:18you can use
35:18an actual meal.
35:20You know
35:20protein
35:21veggies.
35:22Oh right
35:22you're probably right
35:24but I don't think
35:24I can stomach
35:25anything else
35:26right now.
35:27Alright
35:27but promise me
35:29you'll have
35:29a proper meal soon.
35:32I promise
35:33there is
35:36something else
35:36that I want
35:37to thank you for.
35:37Come on
35:38Victoria
35:38you've thanked
35:39me enough
35:39and you really
35:40did need to do that.
35:41No I want to
35:42though.
35:43I just want you
35:43to know
35:44how much I
35:44appreciate
35:45your thoughtfulness
35:47and for letting
35:48me know
35:49that you're not
35:49holding on
35:50to any resentment
35:51about the past.
35:53I can't speak
35:54for your father.
35:55He's been known
35:56to hold a grudge
35:57or two.
35:59Oh
35:59you noticed
36:00that.
36:03But as far
36:04as I'm concerned
36:05all of that
36:05is behind us.
36:07I only want
36:08what's best
36:08for you
36:08and all
36:09the Newmans.
36:12I want the same
36:13for you Nate.
36:14And I know
36:16that you mentioned
36:17how much you
36:17love your work
36:18at Winters.
36:21How are things
36:22going on
36:22the personal front?
36:24I mean
36:24are you and Audra
36:26still going strong?
36:30You don't really
36:31care much for Audra
36:31do you?
36:32I'm sorry
36:32I don't trust her
36:34and I'm surprised
36:35that you do.
36:37Audra's changed
36:38a lot since
36:38she first came
36:39to town.
36:40I think she's
36:41learned a few
36:42things the hard way.
36:44Getting out
36:44from under
36:45Tucker's hold
36:46was good for her.
36:48It was a terrible
36:49influence.
36:50Well for your
36:51sake I hope
36:51that you're right
36:52and the change
36:53that you see
36:53in Audra
36:54is real.
36:56But you're
36:57right Nate
36:57I have a really
36:58hard time
36:59believing it.
37:06Do you really
37:07think it's useless
37:08to take my
37:09idea to Kane?
37:10At once
37:11do Ma's
37:11true identity
37:12is revealed
37:13mystique disappears.
37:15Oh I'm not
37:16sure about that.
37:17now the mystery
37:18becomes why
37:19he did it.
37:21Kane's grand reveal
37:22is a very
37:23intriguing story.
37:24That makes it
37:25all about Kane.
37:26He can make
37:27a meal out of that.
37:28It's barely a snack
37:29for us.
37:30Jabot and
37:31Bronte will come
37:32off look like
37:33clingy hangers
37:34on.
37:35It's not a good
37:36look for us.
37:41Do you really
37:41think this whole
37:42thing is pointless?
37:43No.
37:44I'm not dismissing
37:45the overall idea.
37:46I still think
37:46there's value
37:47in a perfume
37:48more concept.
37:49I just don't think
37:50the Kane Ashby
37:51do Ma part
37:51is the way to go.
37:54Yeah I guess
37:55you're right.
37:58We need a whole
37:59new strategy.
38:00A something
38:01to up the stakes
38:01on our battle.
38:03We need a new
38:04stunt.
38:05A big concept
38:07to connect with
38:08the hearts and
38:09minds of our
38:09customers.
38:12Since we're
38:12going to be
38:13stuck here
38:14maybe we can
38:16work on it
38:17together.
38:19Come up with
38:20something
38:20memorable.
38:27A little bit
38:28more on my neck
38:28please.
38:37Wow.
38:38You see what
38:39I see?
38:40Yeah.
38:41It's hard not to.
38:43It's not
38:44a problem.
38:46I don't know.
38:47I'm going to
38:48ask you myself
38:48the same thing
38:49and every answer
38:51I come up with
38:52feels more and
38:52more like trouble.
