00:00Y'all love that 845 flight, right?
00:05Gets you in time for lunch and then gives you a chance to work out beforehand.
00:09I'm really glad I got to meet the DC staff.
00:12They really seem to know their stuff.
00:13Nobody's afraid to think outside the box.
00:16I got really lucky with that DC team.
00:17I got to tell you, they're the best in the business.
00:19That's why I wanted you to connect with them.
00:22Hey, and I really appreciate that.
00:24And I cannot thank you enough for this internship.
00:27You've thanked me plenty already.
00:29Besides that, if you hadn't given me the heads up,
00:32I would have had no idea that Curtis was out to ambush me.
00:35Said you had some good news.
00:37I tracked down Jacinda in Sydney per your instructions.
00:41My local contact and I were able to convince her to fly back and talk to you about Drew.
00:47Great. How soon can she be here?
00:49In a little over 24 hours.
00:53Can't wait.
00:55There is really no one like Joseph Torrey.
00:58No one.
01:00There really isn't.
01:02And once again, he has outdone himself.
01:04Well, it's just as incredible how you managed to put up all these photographs after that regular guy backed out.
01:12Ava, you are amazing.
01:15Well, that's true.
01:17But I did have a little help from a friend.
01:21Hey.
01:21Hi.
01:23Your sister around?
01:25No.
01:26Why?
01:27Because we have a problem.
01:31I overplayed my hand with Ava last night.
01:34Now there's probably zero chance I can get her away from Rick.
01:36Hi.
01:39Excuse me, Lucas.
01:40Um, I was hoping to run to you, Elizabeth.
01:42You got a minute?
01:43Uh, actually, um, Nurse Baldwin, uh, was just going to assist me with a broken toe in trauma too.
01:51Um, I think Deanna can manage that, if you don't mind.
01:57I don't if you don't.
02:01Struggling with the nursing staff?
02:03No.
02:04Nothing I shouldn't have expected.
02:07Oh, good.
02:08I mean, I guess, uh, it was good to see you on the 4th.
02:11I'm sorry you had to step away so suddenly.
02:14This is totally fine.
02:15No, still, I feel like I should make it up to you.
02:18What are you doing tonight?
02:23Willow.
02:25Michael told me what you did.
02:27You're not going to get away with it.
02:30You've been watching Daisy nonstop.
02:33If you'd like a break, I'd be happy to watch her.
02:37I'm an expert diaper changer and everything.
02:39Thank you, Michael.
02:43But after what happened last night,
02:45I will not be letting my baby out of my sight ever again.
02:52What'd you find out?
02:53Two bodies were fished out of the harbor this morning.
02:56Selena Wu's associates from the surveillance video from Charlie's.
03:00I guess somebody doesn't want somebody to talk.
03:02Yeah, Dante was already worried that we were looking to shut him up,
03:05but now that they found the bodies.
03:07So he's going to come back here and officially question us.
03:10Probably.
03:11Who he should be questioning is Sidwell,
03:13because he got those guys killed.
03:15And hired them to come after me and my family.
03:19Selina and I have clashed in the past,
03:47but our alliance has held up.
03:50Would she come after me?
03:52Probably.
03:53But this is all too convenient.
03:56I agree.
03:57With Selena out of town, her guy's dead.
03:59There's no easy way to get answered.
04:01This whole thing feels like a setup.
04:02Well, you know what?
04:06It seems like a setup to me, too.
04:08I mean, look, since the fire at Charlie's,
04:13there's been water wall media coverage
04:17on why it's so dangerous that I'm in the city.
04:20And measure C gets all the support.
04:25And if it passes, you lose your base of operations.
04:28Dante pointed that out, too.
04:30You know what?
04:31Selena may have something to do with this,
04:33or she may not, but I got to tell you something.
04:37Sidwell's the brains behind everything.
04:39That's why he needs to answer for
04:43almost killing my daughter.
04:46I thought things with you and A.P.L. were going well.
04:49What happened last night?
04:51Well, so I was at the gallery
04:53helping her hang photographs for the show,
04:55and it was perfect.
04:57I mean, it was warm.
04:59Things got a little sweaty.
05:01We were all alone.
05:02What did you do?
05:03Well, I thought for sure we were vibing,
05:04so I went in for a kiss.
05:07And?
05:08And she slapped me.
05:10Oh, God.
05:10Yeah, I obviously misread the situation.
05:13You think?
05:14Maybe my game isn't what it used to be.
05:16So was she still yelling at you
05:18after she kicked you to the curb,
05:19or did she just slam the door in your face?
05:22Neither.
05:23She actually asked me to stay
05:24and help hang photos for the show.
05:27Now that's interesting.
05:29Maybe your game's not as bad as you think.
05:32Cody?
05:33As in Cody Bell?
05:34Yep.
05:35After one.
05:36Since when?
05:38You struck up a conversation at the pool,
05:40and I accidentally left my sunglasses there,
05:42and you was kind enough to return them to me.
05:45And kind enough to hang up with some of these photographs for you, too, huh?
05:50Well, it turns out he's quite handy.
05:53And I needed someone to step up
05:55after Giles had his family emergency, right?
05:57Yeah.
05:58He did a great job.
05:59Everything is displayed perfectly.
06:01Yeah.
06:02Yeah, I think so, too.
06:04And how about these new lights?
06:06I mean, they are spectacular, aren't they?
06:07Oh, no.
06:08They're more than spectacular.
06:10They are state-of-the-art.
06:11Yep.
06:12And there's a very low heat output,
06:14so we've actually lowered our environmental impact.
06:18Really?
06:18Mm-hmm.
06:18Oh, my gosh.
06:19That's unbelievable.
06:21Well, how can you afford all of that?
06:24I told you my financial hiccup is over,
06:27so I'm free to splurge,
06:29despite Rick's miserly financial advice.
06:34Sorry.
06:35Um, I have plans tonight.
06:37Oh.
06:38Laura got me on the list
06:39to see the Giles-Fartori exhibit.
06:42Oh.
06:42Well, that's great,
06:43because I'm going, too.
06:46Why don't we go together?
06:47It'll be like a date.
06:48It's a figure of speech, okay?
06:50I mean, like a date date.
06:52Are you sure about that?
06:55I don't know what you think I've done now.
06:58I know about the incident at the pool.
07:00You made sure that Wiley would see you
07:01after Michael told you to leave.
07:03Can you honestly blame me?
07:05I haven't seen my little boy in so long.
07:08You can see your kids.
07:09Just don't marry Drew.
07:12You and Michael cannot tell me
07:14how to live my life.
07:17Drew and I are getting married.
07:19Okay, great.
07:19I guess I can't stop that train wreck.
07:21But I can and will ban you from the Metro Court
07:23if it happens again.
07:24And I guarantee you,
07:25the judge will find out.
07:27How can you be so heartless?
07:30I'm heartless.
07:31What was it you called my son
07:33when he was fighting for his life in Germany?
07:35Absent Michael?
07:37Carly.
07:37I didn't forget about that.
07:38Carly, Carly, Carly.
07:38I am so glad you were able to stop by.
07:40Willow, can I steal my sister for a second?
07:43She's all yours.
07:44We can't stand her.
07:45Yeah.
07:45Stand her.
07:46No, I know.
07:46We can't stand her.
07:47We can't stand her.
07:47And we will get to that, um, eventually.
07:51Um, I, I asked you to come here
07:55because I have a huge favor to ask.
07:58Okay, what?
07:58I need you to protect Marco from Sonny.
08:06Is Sonny making moves against Marco?
08:08Not yet, but it's just a matter of time.
08:09No.
08:10Is this because of the fire at Charlie's pub?
08:12There is no love lost between Sonny and Sidwell.
08:16And it's not a stretch for him to think
08:18that Sidwell is behind the fire.
08:20Is there any proof that he is?
08:21Oh, come on.
08:23All Sonny needs is a strong suspicion.
08:25If he has that, he will retaliate.
08:28And since Sonny's daughter was the one trapped in the fire,
08:31it only makes sense that he would go after Sidwell's son.
08:33Okay, you're jumping to a lot of conclusions.
08:35You are.
08:37Okay.
08:38No one knows Sonny better than you.
08:41So you tell me, am I that far off?
08:44Can you assure me with complete confidence
08:47that Marco is safe?
08:50So how's Christina?
08:51Well, I spoke to her this morning.
08:53She, uh, she was rattled, but physically she's fine.
08:56I'm just glad that she didn't have Michael St. Jude's.
08:59Yeah, me too.
09:00But something's been bugging me about this whole thing.
09:04All right, so you got two fires.
09:06You got two of your kids involved.
09:09The fire at the penthouse was caused by a very sophisticated device.
09:12But that, that fire, Sonny and Charlie's, that was old school.
09:16Meaning it could be anyone?
09:18It just doesn't feel like the same person's behind it.
09:23We've always had our doubt as far as the firebomb at the penthouse
09:27and then hit woman in L.A.
09:31If you're right, there's a threat on two fronts.
09:34Which makes protecting our family even harder.
09:40Last time I checked, a woman slapping you isn't a sign that she's into you.
09:48You made a move.
09:49At the time, Ava wasn't open to a kiss, but she did let you stick around.
09:53Now, all you have to do is turn Ava against Rick.
09:58And if you do that, she'll be seeing you with fresh eyes.
10:02She did say it was a very good kiss.
10:04Right before she slapped me.
10:06Okay, see?
10:08I suppose you could be right.
10:11What's with the face?
10:12You're still in the game.
10:14I thought you'd be happier.
10:15I just, a big part of me was relieved to be done with the whole thing.
10:18You know?
10:19Why?
10:19Because you don't want the money?
10:20No, you know I do.
10:22It's just, I've gotten to know Ava better.
10:23And there's more to her than I thought.
10:26No, there isn't.
10:29How's that guest list coming?
10:31Looks like we're at full capacity tonight.
10:33Ah, fantastic.
10:35Are your parents coming?
10:37Um, well, my dad is, but my mom is working.
10:41Oh, that's too bad.
10:43Yeah, I'm not surprised.
10:44No one's saying anything, but I think they're avoiding each other.
10:47I'm sorry to hear that.
10:51But your parents are very capable people.
10:53And I am sure they'll figure out how to deal with whatever problems they're facing.
11:00I'll keep you updated and let you know when Jacinda's on the plane.
11:04Felicia, thank you for all your hard work, and I really appreciate your discretion.
11:09Not that it's any of my business, but wouldn't it have been a lot easier to conduct the interview with Jacinda over the phone?
11:18I think Jacinda's story will be more effective if she tells it herself here in person.
11:25Oh.
11:25Come in.
11:29And it looks like I'm interrupting the two of you again.
11:32I apologize.
11:34No need.
11:34I was just leaving.
11:36We'll be in touch, Curtis.
11:38Nice to see you, Jordan.
11:40You too.
11:40And please, give Mac my regards.
11:43Will do.
11:47Felicia tracked down Jacinda, and she agreed to talk with me.
11:51And are you still planning to offer her money to incriminate Drew?
11:57Blowing up Drew's life is my best shot at protecting my wife.
12:01We'll certainly keep him busy.
12:03And, uh, speaking of my wife, maybe I should explain whatever that was you walked in on the other day.
12:11Yeah, uh, let me guess.
12:13Portia wanted to send me a message to stay out of your marriage.
12:17And although I don't agree with her tactics, she's absolutely right.
12:25I really struggled with whether or not to tell you what I overheard at Trina's parents' house.
12:30I'm sure you did.
12:31I mean, I know you care about Trina, and obviously she loves them.
12:35No, and Trina's parents have been great to me as well.
12:38When I first heard them talking, I was shocked.
12:40But it was none of my business, so my first instinct was just to stay out of it.
12:45But as much as I like Trina's parents, I couldn't let them just drag you for something that you didn't do.
12:52I so appreciate your integrity and your insight.
12:55Because that negative publicity, that would have definitely affected Willow's chances of getting her kids back.
13:02And not only that, it would have affected my daughter, too, Scout.
13:06She's still dealing with the loss of her money.
13:08She's certainly not over that.
13:09She barely sees her brothers.
13:11She was bonding with Wiley and Amelia.
13:13Now, they're gone, so you add a scandal on top of all that.
13:17It's too much, too hard.
13:21And do you think you'll be able to stop Trina's parents from setting you up?
13:24I have a plan.
13:26I just hope it works.
13:29Sasha, I know.
13:31It's scary.
13:32You couldn't find Daisy.
13:34She's okay now.
13:36She's safe and sound.
13:37But we still don't know what really happened to her.
13:42Michael, I am positive that I left her in the nursery.
13:46So how did she end up in the living room bassinet, especially after I had already checked there?
13:52I have no idea.
13:54Well, that's the problem.
13:55Nobody does.
13:57And this is not the first time something strange has happened to or around her.
14:02The mix-up at the hospital with the other baby.
14:04The musical mobile that was mysteriously turned on.
14:10And the one scene that she was changed into when I was out of the room.
14:14It's too weird, Michael.
14:16How do you explain all of that?
14:17I can't right now.
14:18Okay, but there can be plenty of perfectly reasonable explanations.
14:21You think I'm crazy, don't you?
14:30Whatever my intention to cause problems in your marriage.
14:34Wait, wait.
14:34This is not on you.
14:36I'm the one who dragged you into my marital problems.
14:39If I remember correctly, when I first confided in you about Portia's lies, you urged me to talk to someone else.
14:46Yeah.
14:47Well, I hate to say I told you so.
14:49I needed a friend and you were there for me.
14:51And I'm really sorry about putting a Tarkin on your back as far as Portia's concerned.
14:56Because you don't deserve that.
14:58For having an iced tea thrown on me?
15:01Wait, what?
15:02When did that happen?
15:03At the pool.
15:05Portia confronted me after she saw us reminiscing about our days in Baltimore.
15:09And she threw an iced tea on you?
15:11Yeah, sorry.
15:12I thought that's what you meant.
15:15No, I had no idea.
15:17She said that she saw us at the pool together.
15:20But, you know, this is a mess.
15:23Well, before it gets any messier, I need to do the right thing.
15:28And remove myself from your life.
15:30I genuinely enjoy your company.
15:35You make me laugh.
15:37You're smart.
15:38You have an interesting take on things.
15:40Oh, boy.
15:41We're starting a list.
15:42I just don't want to mislead you.
15:47Elizabeth.
15:47I have and always will respect your boundaries.
15:55And if you felt like I was overstepping, I'm sorry.
16:02All I want or need is your friendship.
16:10Promise.
16:13Whatever speck of goodness you think you see in Ava, it's all an act.
16:17You know the horrible things she's done.
16:19Yeah, I also know the horrible things that have happened to her.
16:23She told me about her daughter, Kiki.
16:24What happened to Kiki was tragic.
16:31But instead of using that as a turning point, Ava is still out there scheming and ruining people's lives.
16:38No, I don't personally care about Rick, but I do care about Molly.
16:43And Molly loves her father.
16:45Yeah, I know that much.
16:48He's with Ava, and that doesn't make Molly happy.
16:50But if you were with Elizabeth, that would make Molly really happy.
16:53I thought you said Rick was already into Elizabeth.
16:56He is.
16:58Which is why it would be better for everyone, including Ava, if she and Rick were no longer together.
17:03Okay, but look, if Molly doesn't want her father to be with Ava, then why don't we just tell her what we're doing?
17:09No.
17:10We should.
17:10No, we can't.
17:11She would never approve.
17:13No.
17:14Who knows what she would do with that information?
17:17She could tell her father.
17:19It's better if we just keep this a secret.
17:22Hi.
17:23Cody, what are you doing here?
17:27And what's this about a secret?
17:32I suppose my parents can handle themselves.
17:36And I like the idea of focusing on my life for a change, even if it does seem a little selfish.
17:43In your case, it's definitely not.
17:46Okay, then.
17:47Then I'm in.
17:48Even though there's nothing for me to complain about, everything is sunshine and plenty of workings.
17:53Oh.
17:54And I'm guessing that's due in large part to a certain handsome Kai.
17:59Yeah, he's great.
18:00Yeah, he's great.
18:03Right now, he's actually, he's, he took a quick trip to D.C. and I'm just really excited to see him tonight.
18:09I mean, I'm so happy you're happy.
18:12You know, you deserve only wonderful things to happen to you.
18:16Thanks.
18:17I don't even know how it happened.
18:20You know, Kai and I are really good.
18:23Even, even when we don't see eye to eye, we can still, like, respect and support each other.
18:31He's so healthy and mature.
18:34You know, I think Rick and I could learn a couple of things from you guys.
18:37Oh, is everything okay between the two?
18:40Oh, yeah.
18:41Oh, yeah.
18:41We had a little fight yesterday, but it's nothing.
18:43It's no big deal.
18:44Oh.
18:45Well, I hope not.
18:47I hope Rick knows how lucky he is to have you.
18:50So, too.
18:50And I hope that Kai knows how lucky he is to have you.
18:56If I block Curtis and Portia, they may eventually figure out that you were the one that tipped me off,
19:02which definitely could affect your relationship between you.
19:06I know.
19:07That's the only thing I can think about.
19:09And Trina means everything to me.
19:11So, I'm definitely worried that she's going to feel like I betrayed her.
19:15So, what are you going to do?
19:17Well, I'm going to hope.
19:19Right?
19:19I'm going to hope that she understands that I had to do what was right.
19:23I mean, as much as I admire her folks, they're in the wrong here.
19:27And if she can't see that, then I hope that we can agree to disagree.
19:32And I will do everything I can to keep your name out of it.
19:35But I think it's better if I own up to my actions, even if I don't like the consequences.
19:42You are an amazing young man.
19:45I'm proud of you.
19:45What an amazing surprise!
19:50What are you doing here?
19:52I called your office before I got off work and you said you were here.
19:56Welcome home.
19:57Hi.
20:00Hi.
20:00I'm sorry.
20:01I hope you don't mind if I steal my fiancé.
20:03Do you see?
20:04It might have been a short trip, but I missed him too crazy.
20:06Yeah, no problem.
20:07I have to take care of someone before I go to the Satori exhibit later.
20:10You guys going?
20:11Maybe.
20:12Okay, then maybe I'll see you guys there.
20:14Okay.
20:16Hi.
20:17Hi.
20:17I'm so happy that you can come join me here.
20:20Well, we should enjoy it while we can, because Carly's threatened to ban me from the pool.
20:26Michael, I understand how this looks, but I am not imagining things.
20:36And before you say anything, I'm not tired.
20:39I'm not hormonal.
20:40I'm not suffering from postpartum depression.
20:44I know that I've had mental health issues in the past and issues with addiction.
20:51So I understand why you might doubt me, but...
20:56I don't.
20:58I don't doubt you.
21:00I believe everything that you said.
21:03Really?
21:04I know you.
21:07You were strong and level-headed, and I've also seen you when you weren't.
21:12I could tell the difference.
21:15So if you say that something strange has been going on with our daughter, I'm...
21:19I'm listening.
21:22Oh, thank you so much.
21:25I think that means everything.
21:27Here's the thing.
21:28If you're right, that means that someone in the house or someone with access to the house
21:33took our daughter and they hid her on purpose.
21:36That's why I'm so scared.
21:39Either someone is deliberately trying to gaslight me,
21:44or someone is trying to prove that they can get to our daughter whenever they want.
21:49Which is why Daisy and I have to move...
21:52immediately.
21:57I know Sonny, but I also know he doesn't go after civilians or innocent people.
22:02So how closely is Marco tied to his dad's business?
22:06Marco's been adamant.
22:07He only handles the legit side of things.
22:10Do you believe him?
22:11Yeah.
22:12I believe him.
22:13I know him, Carly.
22:15We've gotten close.
22:16I trust him.
22:18You're in deep.
22:19Yeah.
22:21But I have come to you with such a big favor if I weren't.
22:25Marco means a lot to me.
22:27I can see that.
22:28So please, just talk to Sonny.
22:32Remind him that Marco saved Christina's life.
22:34That has to count for something.
22:35If anyone has the power to sway Sonny, it's you.
22:41I think you were vastly overestimating my influence.
22:44I do.
22:45Just try.
22:46Just try.
22:47Please.
22:48And not for my sake or Marco's.
22:50But if Sonny goes after Sidwell's son, that could trigger an all-out war.
22:56And that would affect every single one of us.
23:01All I wanted was to see my son.
23:04And now Michael and Carly are trying to punish me.
23:07Sweetheart, I understand.
23:09And obviously, I'm on your side.
23:12But we do have to tread lightly here, okay?
23:15The visitation hearing is coming up.
23:17And we can't give Michael any ammunition against us.
23:20But it's just not right.
23:22You should have seen how happy Wiley was to see me.
23:25If Michael was a father who truly cared about his son, he would have let us spend time together.
23:30And not for my sake, but for Wiley's.
23:33Michael's just still trying to punish you for leaving him.
23:37But it's okay.
23:38Because we're going to fix all of this.
23:40Once we get married, we're going to show the court that we are the stable and the loving home for the kids.
23:46First, we'll secure visitation.
23:49Then we'll get custody.
23:51But in the meantime, Michael not only has Wiley and Amelia, but Daisy too.
23:57And my arms are completely empty.
24:00Are you sure you want to move?
24:02I could beef up security.
24:06I don't feel safe here anymore.
24:10Please don't fight me on this.
24:13Oh, well.
24:15Every decision that you've made about our daughter so far has been the right one.
24:19I trust your judgment.
24:21Thank you, Michael.
24:22So where do you want to go?
24:26Mac and Felicia.
24:27You know, my mom.
24:28She would love if you guys moved in with her.
24:31I thought I could talk to Lucy, see if she can get you a place.
24:34I'll cover the expenses, of course.
24:35That's very generous of you.
24:37But the only way that I will rest easy and know that my daughter is safe is by getting us out of poor Charles.
24:49Increase security.
24:53Keep an eye on Sidwell and any other threats.
24:57You got it.
24:59And at least you're in the clear for Natalia's death.
25:01You know, it's nice to have one less thing to worry about.
25:04Yeah, that's a problem we didn't need.
25:06Preliminary autopsy showed that there wasn't any defensive wound.
25:11So if she did it on purpose or it was an accident, Natalia OD'd on her own.
25:17Do you think Turner's still looking for a way to pin it on you?
25:20She must have put me away, but I'll give her a little credit.
25:22She didn't railroad me.
25:25She knew I was innocent.
25:26I mean, for the most part, you didn't have anything to do with it.
25:30Turner thinks that Natalia turning over evidence against me is too much for Natalia.
25:39So Turner and I created such a bad situation that we're responsible for Natalia's death.
25:47So she's feeling guilty.
25:50What about you?
25:53Well, you know what?
25:54Um, for whatever reason, Natalia thinks that we kind of like had a romantic thing going on.
26:05Like I was going to go with her to Belize.
26:09When I told her that wasn't the case, I guess that was less strong.
26:12I mean, you didn't even know if you could fully trust Natalia and you still tried to help her.
26:18What happened to her?
26:19You're not responsible.
26:21I just wish it would have been different for her.
26:24What's the secret you two are talking about?
26:30I was saying that no matter how hard Cody tries to hide it, he is secretly a very sweet guy.
26:39You think Cody's sweet?
26:42Should I be offended?
26:44I'm actually asking.
26:45Since you're asking, yes, I do.
26:48He came over to see how I was recovering.
26:51He was incredibly helpful the night of the fire.
26:53He drove you to Charlie's.
26:55He took us all to the hospital.
26:57That's true.
26:58That was very sweet.
27:00Especially how you kept our mom from freaking out.
27:02I like to help when I can.
27:04And on that note, I am going to leave while I'm ahead.
27:07Have a good night, guys.
27:09Whoa, whoa, whoa.
27:10Hold up, cowboy.
27:11Where are you going looking all fancy?
27:14Oh, this?
27:14I was dressed like this on Tuesday afternoons.
27:18Don't tell me it's another court appearance.
27:21You have more legal trouble?
27:22No.
27:22If you must know, I'm going to a showing at the Jerome Gallery.
27:26Really?
27:27Doesn't strike me as your kind of vibe?
27:30Uh, it's not.
27:32But I helped hang the pictures.
27:34And the photographer, this guy, Joel Sartori,
27:36he takes these amazing photos of baby animals.
27:39It's really adorable.
27:41You should check it out once it's open to the public.
27:44Yeah, maybe.
27:48Yeah, maybe.
27:52Um, okay.
27:54Well, have fun.
27:56Okay.
27:57You enjoy your evening as well.
28:00Bye.
28:05What is wrong with you?
28:08What did I do?
28:09You never miss a chance to badmouth, Ava.
28:11And the one time it would be helpful, you keep your mouth shy?
28:13Why would I badmouth Ava when everyone has told me to stop doing that?
28:22Okay, but not with Cody.
28:23We need to keep him away from that horrible woman.
28:26I saw him hanging out with her at the pool the other day,
28:28and it was like watching some creepy spider weave her web.
28:32So it looked like Ava was interested in Cody?
28:35Yeah.
28:36Seemed like it to me, even though she's supposed to be with my dad.
28:40Well, I wouldn't worry too much about Cody.
28:42He's a big boy.
28:42He can take care of himself.
28:44Oh, please.
28:45He might think he's Mr. Smooth Operator, but we both know that Ava would chew him up and spit him out.
28:51There'd be nothing left of him to bury when she'd be done with him.
28:54You're getting quite worked up about this, sister.
28:58Cody has come to my rescue a couple of times.
29:02I consider him sort of a friend.
29:04So I don't want anything bad to happen to him.
29:08So let me get this straight.
29:09You are totally cool to sit back and let Ava have her way with your dad,
29:14but you are drawing the line at Cody?
29:18Is that because you guys are sort of friends or because you want to be more than that?
29:22I don't want to be more than that, but I don't want to be more than that, but I don't want to be more than that, but I don't want to be more than that.
29:30Ah, well, if it isn't my hammer-wielding angel.
29:35I will go check on the caters.
29:39Oh, thanks.
29:42Well, you clean up nicely.
29:45Oh.
29:45You know, you're extremely early.
29:47I know.
29:48Yeah, I wanted to make sure I could have a private minute to apologize again.
29:53I crossed the line last night.
29:55Bygones.
29:57And you know, you more than made up for your little faux pas by doing such an excellent job with these photographs.
30:02I mean, look at this place.
30:04Yeah.
30:05Well, we make a great team.
30:08Oh, no, no, no.
30:09Hold up.
30:10No, let me.
30:11Okay.
30:12Where do you want it?
30:13Just right there in that table.
30:14Thanks.
30:14Okay.
30:18What else can I do for you?
30:19You know, that's it.
30:21Okay.
30:22Now, don't go hefting around anything like this anymore.
30:25You've got a party to host.
30:27You've got a reputation to uphold.
30:29A very strong man.
30:30You haven't crossed any lines.
30:35And it needs to stay that way.
30:36I don't want to be responsible for your marriage falling apart.
30:41Directly or indirectly.
30:45Our lives will continue to intersect professionally and with family.
30:50But outside of that, it's best if we don't see each other anymore.
30:55You know I hate this, right?
30:58I don't know.
30:58But you're right.
31:04Jordan, I've allowed myself to lean on you in ways that aren't exactly fair to you.
31:09I'll admit that.
31:10And if I'm honest with myself, I haven't been fair to Portia either.
31:14So thank you for stepping up and saying something.
31:17You know, I've always said you're a class act and an amazing moment.
31:21Yeah, yeah.
31:21Well, uh, good luck with Jacinda.
31:28I'll be rooting for you to take down Drew.
31:32Dr. Jones, just a person I wanted to see.
31:50My shift is over.
31:51But before I go, how is Marka doing?
31:54Well, he insists that he's all right.
31:56I mean, there's no easy way to lose a parent.
31:59And he and Natalia weren't close at the end, so that only complicates things and makes it worse.
32:05I'm sure he's feeling all kinds of guilt.
32:08And he's wondering if he could have saved his mother.
32:10If he hadn't stopped and rescued Christina from the fire at Charlie's, could he have gone to Natalia in time?
32:17Something we'll never know.
32:19But it is possible that if he hadn't stopped, that both his mom and Christina would be dead.
32:26You're right.
32:27He did a heroic thing that night.
32:30I just hope that certain people can see that and appreciate it, too.
32:36Even though Natalia didn't turn over evidence to Turner, I'm going to have to pull out of deception.
32:44Just in case.
32:45Yeah.
32:45Do you want me to call Diane?
32:47No.
32:47So, uh, our main priority is Sidwell.
32:54That fire cannot go unanswered.
32:57So what do you want me to do?
32:59We send him a message.
33:01You come after my child.
33:05Your child will pay.
33:12This is bad news for Mark.
33:17Speaking of acts of heroism.
33:20I had to go with Rick earlier.
33:24He asked me what I was doing tonight.
33:27And it just so happens that I'm going to your aunt's gallery show.
33:31Oh, that should be fun.
33:32Yeah, and he suggested we go together.
33:34Okay, there it is.
33:36Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
33:38So Rick is seeing Ava that asked you to go with him to her big night.
33:44Is he the messiest man in the world?
33:46I told him what wasn't a good idea.
33:48And I made it very clear, again, that we're just friends.
33:52Uh-huh.
33:53How'd Rick take that?
33:55I think it got through to him.
33:57I mean, let me just, I hope I did.
33:59Look, I'm saying all the right words, and I'm good for you.
34:04You are being completely upfront and clear with your boundaries,
34:09and it is up to him to accept that.
34:11And tonight will be his first test.
34:14Well, for his sake, I hope he passes.
34:18Because otherwise, he has to answer to Aunt Ava.
34:26Wow.
34:28Well, congratulations.
34:30Everything looks fabulous.
34:34These are for you.
34:36Oh, should I put those in some water?
34:41Yeah, thank you, Trina.
34:42Oh, oh, just a minute.
34:43Sorry.
34:48What is that?
34:50Well, open it and see?
34:51Okay.
34:51That's a lot of zeros.
35:02Yeah.
35:02What's it for?
35:04I spoke to Alexis this morning.
35:06I had her release some more funds into the offshore account.
35:10I had her put in a little extra so that you could use it for the gallery.
35:14That's thoughtful.
35:16Just wanted to remind you that we are in this together.
35:20I hate we fought yesterday.
35:22Hope you can forget him.
35:25I do appreciate a man who knows how to apologize.
35:28Why does everybody think I'd be interested in Cody?
35:35Last night, Mac was playing matchmaker, which makes no sense.
35:39Cody and I have nothing in common.
35:41So you're definitely not interested in Cody.
35:43I'm saying that I don't want Ava to eat him alive.
35:47That's different than having feelings for him.
35:49I mean, how did he even get involved with that woman in the first place?
35:58Come in.
36:02Hey.
36:03Hey.
36:04Did you hear from your P.I.?
36:05Mm-hmm.
36:06And when he went to pick her up for the airport, Jacinda was gone.
36:09And her place was completely cleared out.
36:13Does your guy have any idea where she went?
36:16I'm really sorry.
36:17I'm guessing she got cold feet.
36:20No.
36:21It was Drew.
36:24Somehow he got to her.
36:26How in the hell did he know what I was up to?
36:31I hate that our relationship puts you in this terrible position.
36:38And I am so sorry.
36:41No, don't be.
36:42This is Michael's fault.
36:44All you've ever done is love and support me.
36:49You're just...
36:51You're such an incredible woman.
36:53And such an incredible...
36:54And I can't wait to marry you.
36:59My only regret is that it'll seem like I'm only marrying you to get my kids back.
37:05And I do want my kids back more than anything.
37:08But I hope you know that I'm marrying you because I love you.
37:16I love you, too.
37:22You want to leave town?
37:24Something is off, Michael.
37:27And I will not sit around waiting to find out what it is I need to protect our child.
37:32By completely uprooting your life and leaving all your friends and family behind?
37:36Yes.
37:37Daisy is my number one priority now.
37:41Nothing else matters.
37:42Sasha, I get that.
37:43Okay, I really do, but...
37:45I have already lost one child, Michael.
37:47I will not go through that again.
37:48So, yes, it might seem crazy or extreme, but I don't care.
37:55I need to protect Daisy.
37:58And that means leaving poor Charles and going into hiding.
38:03On our own.
38:04Sasha, I can't let you do that.
38:08I've already made arrangements where Marco's concerned.
38:12You just say the word and the plan goes live.
38:15Carla, what brings you by?
38:30I'm here to stop another one of our children from being killed.
38:37On the next General Hospital...
38:38I can't let you guys leave.
38:40You are meddling in affairs that you don't understand.
38:42You and Curtis need to remember what you mean to each other.
38:45If you're harassing me, I will take legal action.
38:48If you escalate, you put everyone in danger.
38:50You said you had something for me.
