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.
01:49Yeah, 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.
02:03I 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.
02:15Hi.
02:23Um, I thought the two of you could Billy 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, uh, plan to be back in Chicago before he makes 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.
03:52Yeah, I 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.
04:28Oh, 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.
06:51Early.
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.
07:01You really think that?
07:03Yes.
07:03With hospitalization and the right treatment, healthy people usually recover from this disease.
07:10And Cole's a strong guy.
07:12No underlying conditions, right?
07:14No, that's what his care team told us, too.
07:19And trust the doctors.
07:21I'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, we'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.
09:46Okay.
09:47You 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.
10:13And I didn't mean to butt in this, well.
10:15No, no, your 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.
10:42And 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.
11:01She got the mother she finally found as well.
11:07I 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.
11:14And sometimes it helps to...
11:16Talk 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.
11:28Her 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?
11:58Hmm.
12:00Do we mind, Audra?
12:03None at all.
12:04Please do.
12:04No.
12:04Kyle.
12:15You know, I was thinking this morning would be a good time to approach Dumas
12:20about 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 Dumas
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 for us with Mr. Ashby?
12:43No.
12:44Why not?
12:46Now that the true identity of the most mysterious man in the world
12:50has been revealed as Kane Ashby,
12:53we should scrap the whole plan.
12:55Why in the world would you think that?
13:03Claire, Claire, Claire, Claire, are you okay?
13:15Claire, look at me.
13:17Look at me.
13:17Look at me.
13:18Stay blue.
13:19Look at me.
13:20Are you okay?
13:20Come on.
13:22Claire, all right, 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.
13:30Close 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, okay?
13:42Four seconds.
13:43Breathe in on my cow, all right?
13:44One, two, three, four.
13:49That's it, okay?
13:51Now hold.
13:52Now five seconds.
13:53Breathe out.
13:54Five, four, three.
13:57Slow down, slow down.
13:59Slow down, okay?
14:00Now, 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.
14:13No, that's right.
14:15Slow and deep breaths.
14:17Keep bursting your lips.
14:17You got it.
14:25There you go.
14:26I knew you could do it.
14:34You okay?
14:43Better than I was.
14:46Better is good.
14:48I like that.
14:49Yeah.
14:50I feel like I was having a heartache.
15:01I couldn't breathe.
15:04So you first panic attack?
15:09That's what that was, yeah.
15:12How did you know what to do?
15:13How did you know how to speak those things?
15:15I'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.
15:31And as captain of the football team, nothing is less cool than having a panic attack for the big game.
15:37You were the captain.
15:43Yup.
15:44My whole team and school were depending on me.
15:48Talk about pressure, huh?
15:50I rarely know you, but panic is the last thing I'd expect from you.
15:56I wanted to manage it, okay?
15:59I had to.
15:59Ron, I'm not the concern right now.
16:04You are.
16:07What happened?
16:12You sure you don't want to talk about it?
16:15No.
16:15I'm talking about it is what made this happen, so I think talking about it would just bring on another attack.
16:22I think what I need to do is not talk about it, not think about it.
16:28If that's possible?
16:30It's not just possible, it's doable.
16:34Because, lucky you, I'm here to help.
16:42If 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.
16:56Recently, I've become close friends with a woman who was diagnosed with leukemia.
17:04I've gotten very involved in helping her find treatment options and following her case closely.
17:11She's lucky.
17:12I feel lucky to be able to help.
17:16I'm still fascinated with the miracle of modern medicine.
17:20There's something very satisfying about the healing process that does make me miss working in the field.
17:27You know, I heard through the grapevine that you found out that you have a brother.
17:33Half-brother, but, uh, yes.
17:35And 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.
17:53You know, finding out I have a brother I never knew about is a life-altering experience.
18:00Although 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.
18:17Well, 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 in the enterprises.
18:29You and Adam.
18:30Oh, uh, 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.
18:46Tell me something, Nate.
18:48I'll try.
18:49In our time at Newman, I mean, we did some great things.
18:56We were a really good team.
19:00We were.
19:02Until we weren't.
19:05I have to wonder if there's still a little undercurrent of tension between us.
19:11I mean, am I wrong in thinking that maybe you're still harboring some resentment about the way things ended?
19:19Isn't it obvious?
19:23Our plan is far less promising now that we know who Dumas really is.
19:26The mystery is over.
19:28The 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 Kane 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.
19:48Why 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.
20:10I think you're making way too hasty of a decision.
20:14I mean, we could...
20:14You're fighting a losing battle.
20:16I'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 underneath it.
20:22But it isn't over yet.
20:25We don't know what this Dumas...
20:27Sorry, Kane has planned for us.
20:30Whatever happens, they're heading back to General 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 just felt like a weird game of smoke and mirrors.
20:58I get why 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?
21:11For 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.
21:22Who does that?
21:23Well, I don't think this trip is a total loss.
21:26I think this Kane guy can still be an asset,
21:28and I want to capitalize on that.
21:31I don't know.
21:32The sooner we get out of here, the better, in my opinion.
21:37I'm with Audra.
21:40Let's 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,
22:00the answer's yes.
22:03I let that go a long time ago.
22:05I hoped that was the case.
22:08You know, I 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, we have known each other a long time.
22:25Long before we even got together,
22:27we were friends.
22:29It just, you know, it just made me so sad
22:33that when things ended between us
22:35that I, I lost that friendship, too.
22:40It makes me sad, too.
22:44But I think things worked out
22:47the way they were supposed to.
22:50You found happiness with Cole.
22:52He's a good man, and you deserve that.
22:55Yes, he really is, and I appreciate all of your support.
23:00I just hope and pray that, you 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, I shouldn't have let her run off like that.
23:13I don't like her walking around
23:16with all of this turmoil, you know?
23:19Kyle's in these, too, right?
23:22Yes.
23:23I mean, the timing is very unfortunate.
23:25He's totally unreachable.
23:26At a time when she desperately needs to lean on him.
23:29I mean, he'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 she could really use someone like that right now.
23:42So, what were you doing up here at this hour, anyway?
23:47I was on my nightly run.
23:50It's a habit of fun years ago.
23:51It was a stress-coping mechanism.
23:54A few people out at this hour.
23:56Even in L.A., the weather is
23:58generally cooler and crisp at this time of evening.
24:02When you just happened to see me?
24:08Pure chance.
24:10I saw you hurrying into the park,
24:12heading to the overlook.
24:15It 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 going to pass out.
24:30I'm glad I could help.
24:35Well, thank you.
24:38But, you don't have to worry about me anymore.
24:40I'm fine.
24:43Really, you can go back to your run.
24:46Next time I see you, Vespers on me.
24:50Well, if...
24:51If you're buying,
24:53then there's no better time than the present.
24:57Right now?
24:58I'm game if you are.
25:00You could probably use one right now.
25:02And I don't have anywhere else to be,
25:06so...
25:06What do you say?
25:12I say let's do it.
25:14It twists my arm.
25:20Can't pass up a free Vespa.
25:27Billy, I thought you would change your mind about staying.
25:31I mean, I gotta stay, Sally.
25:32I gotta find out what Kane's agenda is.
25:34Yeah, look, I don't blame you for being curious
25:36about 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, but for all we know,
25:52it's just cocktails and dancing to live music.
25:55Well, what's it your main goal
25:56for being here to pitch a perfume?
25:58If that's not happening,
25:59why bother stay?
25:59Okay, I may not be as familiar
26:03with 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, I know I don't know
26:12the whole history between you and Kane,
26:14but from what you've told me,
26:15it doesn't seem like you're particularly close.
26:20Look, my relationship with Kane
26:22is complicated, right?
26:23But as Genoa City's reigning champ
26:25at Second Chances,
26:26I gotta respect what he did
26:28to get back into good graces of everyone.
26:31I mean, this is a hell of a return,
26:33is it not?
26:34Or it's just some smokescreen
26:37for some shady business deal.
26:39Look, whether we decide to stay or go,
26:43it could be a moot point,
26:45because 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
26:55wiped out the tracks
26:55and the road up to the chateau,
26:57so until that's cleared,
26:59we might not be going anywhere anytime soon.
27:04Oh, it looks like we have our picket tables.
27:17You decide,
27:18and I'll grab the drinks.
27:20Wait, wait.
27:21It's supposed to be my treat.
27:22You get the next round.
27:43Hey, Mom.
27:44Hey, how are you?
27:47Um, where are you?
27:49Are you feeling any better?
27:51Much better than I was.
27:54Ugh, good.
27:56Good.
27:56Um,
27:58I'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, I ran into a friend
28:19who helped me calm down.
28:21Oh, that's...
28:23that's great.
28:24Um,
28:25I think that's what we both needed,
28:27just to, um,
28:29find someone to calm our nerves.
28:32Thankfully,
28:32I was able to talk through some things
28:34with Nate, too.
28:36I'm glad.
28:38Um,
28:39well, we'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.
28:54I'm guessing
28:55you haven't made time for eating
28:57or felt much like it.
28:59You are right
29:00on both counts.
29:02Were you able to reach Claire?
29:03Yes, I just talked to her.
29:05Um,
29:05she's doing much better.
29:08She ran into someone
29:09who helped calm her down.
29:11Really?
29:12Look at that.
29:13Sounds like exactly
29:14what you were hoping for.
29:16Yes, exactly.
29:17I'm just really...
29:19I'm curious
29:20who came to her rescue.
29:23Here
29:24you go.
29:27Thanks.
29:27Just
29:27what the doctor ordered.
29:29Wait, did I...
29:37Did I say the wrong thing?
29:42I did, didn't I?
29:43What...
29:43What is it, Claire?
29:46Are you...
29:47Are you facing some sort of a medical issue, or...?
29:51Um, not me.
29:55My dad.
29:58Wow.
29:59I'm sorry.
30:01I didn't mean to upset you again.
30:04It's fine.
30:06You had no way of knowing.
30:09Let's not talk about it.
30:13Understood.
30:13A toast
30:19to the healing powers of Vespers.
30:21And to my good fortune
30:25of running into you tonight.
30:28I think I was a lucky one.
30:37First, no self-service,
30:38and now we may have no escape.
30:40I'm starting to feel like a hostage,
30:42stuck here against my will
30:43and cut off from the rest of the world.
30:44Come on.
30:45Escape?
30:46Hostage?
30:47Look at this place.
30:48We're in paradise.
30:49Let's make the best of the circumstances
30:52and take it all in,
30:53like that amazing view
30:54and that pool over there.
30:57It's calling my name.
30:58Is it calling Sally's name, too?
31:00Hmm?
31:02Last one,
31:03and has to go get mimosas?
31:06Fine.
31:07But we're getting the expensive champagne.
31:09Oh, heck yeah, we are.
31:12I can't believe we're stuck here.
31:14I mean, just trapped
31:15for who knows how long.
31:17Hey, it wouldn't be so bad
31:18if we at least had internet
31:20or cell phone service.
31:22You know, I have so much
31:23on my plate right now,
31:24I can't just fall off the map like this.
31:26I know, and I need to get in touch with Claire,
31:28see how her dad's doing.
31:29Yeah, I'm sure Claire's worried about him.
31:32But, you know, Cole's a healthy guy.
31:34I'm sure he's making a full recovery by now.
31:36Yeah, I hope so,
31:36but Claire's probably wondering
31:38why we haven'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 if I could hear Claire's voice
31:47even for a few minutes.
31:48I know something that might cheer you up.
31:56Ta-da!
31:59Is that what I think it is?
32:01It is Chippo's birthday suit sunscreen.
32:04I never leave home without it.
32:06Still a top seller.
32:08I admit, it is the best on the market.
32:11For now.
32:13But you better not go to the press
32:14and tell him I said that
32:15because I will firmly flat out deny it.
32:17Of course you will.
32:19And it's only the best
32:20until Vibrante's son Caroline
32:22hits the market.
32:23So 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 so often.
32:40I have to wonder.
32:40Oh, it's funny you should bring that up.
32:44My whole world's turned completely on its head
32:47the last few months.
32:49I know it's...
32:50it's nothing compared to what you're facing right now,
32:54but I do have a few crucial things
32:57to work out myself.
32:59Sounds serious?
33:00Oh, just, uh...
33:01where I'm going to work and live.
33:05Details like that.
33:07I lost my job in L.A.,
33:09so I need a new gig.
33:12But...
33:13where?
33:15Oh, I'm sorry to hear that.
33:17For the record,
33:18I don't think what you're dealing with
33:20is really that much less stressful
33:22than what I'm going through.
33:23It's just different, that's all.
33:24Thanks.
33:28It is stressful.
33:30I feel like I'm just...
33:33stuck, you know?
33:35Trying to figure out what my next move is.
33:38Is that why you haven't gone back to L.A. yet
33:39to look for work?
33:41I'm not even sure I want to go back there.
33:43I'm liking the low-key vibe of Genoa City
33:46versus the Tinseltown glam of L.A.
33:51So, what is it that you think you want to do?
33:54You want to stay in the real estate
33:56investment business
33:58or change careers altogether?
34:01For now, I think I'm sticking with real estate.
34:04It's what I know,
34:06and I am pretty successful at it.
34:08And do you think you could be successful at it
34:11in Genoa City?
34:12Maybe.
34:14I did just make a connection with the company here.
34:16Oh, which one?
34:18Well, they're pretty new to the scene.
34:21They're buying up key properties in town.
34:23And I'm just...
34:24I'm really hoping it turns into something for me.
34:29Well, I'll put out some positive vibes
34:31that it all works out for you.
34:32Thanks.
34:33I will take all of the positive vibes I can get.
34:35And I'll put a few out there
34:38for you and your dad
34:39whatever issue he's facing.
34:44Thanks, yeah.
34:46Much needed.
34:47I'm really grateful
34:55that you found me tonight.
35:00I think we found each other.
35:01You knew just what I needed.
35:12And you even remembered my favorite cake.
35:16I'm glad it helped,
35:17but I am sure you can use an actual meal.
35:20You know, protein, veggies...
35:22Oh, right.
35:22Oh, you're probably right,
35:24but I don't think I can stomach anything else right now.
35:27All right.
35:28But promise me
35:29you'll have a proper meal soon.
35:32I promise.
35:35There is something else
35:36that I want to thank you for.
35:37Come on, Victoria.
35:38You've thanked me enough
35:39and you really did need to do that.
35:41No, I want to, though.
35:43I just want you to know
35:44how much I appreciate your thoughtfulness
35:47and for letting me know
35:49that you're not holding on
35:50to any resentment about the past.
35:52I can't speak for your father.
35:55He's been known to hold a grudge or two.
35:59Oh, you noticed that.
36:03But as far as I'm concerned,
36:05all of that is behind us.
36:07I only want what's best for you
36:08and all the Newmans.
36:12I want the same for you, Nate.
36:15And I know that you mentioned
36:17how much you love your work at Winters.
36:19How are things going
36:22on the personal front?
36:24I mean,
36:25are you and Audra still going strong?
36:30You don't really care much for Audra, do you?
36:32I'm sorry.
36:32I don't trust her.
36:34And I'm surprised that you do.
36:37Audra's changed a lot
36:38since she first came to town.
36:40I think she's learned a few things
36:42the hard way.
36:44Getting out from under Tucker's hold
36:46was good for her.
36:47It was a terrible influence.
36:50Well, for your sake,
36:51I hope that you're right
36:52and the change that you see in Audra
36:54is real.
36:56But you're right, Nate.
36:57I have a really hard time believing it.
37:06Do you really think it's useless
37:08to take my idea to Kane?
37:10Not once do Ma's true identity
37:12is revealed.
37:14Mystique disappears.
37:15Oh, I'm not sure about that.
37:17Now the mystery becomes
37:19why he did it.
37:21Kane's grand reveal
37:22is a very intriguing story.
37:24That makes it all about Kane.
37:26He can make a meal out of that.
37:28It's barely a snack for us.
37:30Jabot and Vrante
37:31will come off
37:33look like clingy hangers-on.
37:35It's not a good look for us.
37:37Do you really think this whole thing
37:42is pointless?
37:43No.
37:44I'm not dismissing the overall idea.
37:46I still think there's value
37:47and a perfume more 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 you're right.
37:56We need a whole new strategy.
38:00A something to up the stakes
38:02on our battle.
38:03We need a new stunt.
38:05A big concept
38:07to connect with the hearts
38:08and minds of our customers.
38:12Since we're gonna be stuck here,
38:15maybe we can work on it together.
38:18or come up with something
38:20memorable.
38:27A little bit more
38:28on my neck, please.
38:37Wow.
38:39You see what I see?
38:40Yeah.
38:41It's hard not to.
38:43It's not over.
38:46I don't know.
38:47I've been asking myself
38:48the same thing.
38:51And every answer I come up with
38:52feels more and more
38:53like trouble.
