00:00Here you go, baby.
00:12Baby, brought you up here.
00:14Uh-huh.
00:18Look at you, showing me right up.
00:22Hard at work, well, I'm kicking back.
00:25Simple or cold, well.
00:30The truth is, I was actually going to stay at the office a little bit later, but...
00:34Victoria was so damn loud, eh?
00:37Don't get me wrong, I know Xander missed this kid and all, but...
00:40I hope when he calls on reinforcements soon.
00:44You need me to call someone?
00:47No, I was just...
00:50Never mind.
00:52I haven't seen you just focused on something in a long time.
00:55What's going on?
00:55I'm, um, prepping for my meeting with EJ tomorrow.
01:01Hmm.
01:02Doing PR for the hospital?
01:03Yeah, double-checking everything.
01:05I don't want to give him any reason not to hire me.
01:08Baby, what are you worried about?
01:09I mean, I know you want to help your mom, but...
01:12Well, it's not just that.
01:15I've, um...
01:16I've lost some clients recently in SGPR, so I could use the work.
01:20Hmm.
01:22Or, as we discussed, you could just quit the PR biz altogether and write full-time.
01:30You did say it was tempting.
01:32I did.
01:34But, Alex, I don't know.
01:36I do.
01:42Because...
01:43Once this hits the shelves...
01:47You may not ever have to work for anybody else ever again.
01:51Hmm.
01:52Hmm.
01:53Hmm.
01:54Hmm.
01:55Hmm.
01:56Hmm.
01:57Hmm.
01:58Hmm.
01:59Hmm.
02:00Hmm.
02:01Hmm.
02:02Hmm.
02:03Hmm.
02:04Hmm.
02:05Hmm.
02:06Hmm.
02:06That's right.
02:11I want every division's second quarter earnings on my desk in an hour.
02:15I don't care if the system is down.
02:19Never hear your mind about that noise.
02:21Just give me those numbers.
02:23I'm sorry, my wee bear.
02:26Was your dad answering your hand?
02:27I thought you were sad to sleep.
02:30Hey, how about me walking?
02:32Yes.
02:33I don't know what you're thinking.
02:34Hey, Dad.
02:35But, Dad, don't you have loads of calls to make to various multinational CEOs?
02:40And the answer is yes.
02:41And the answer is yes, in my life.
02:42I do.
02:43I do.
02:44But right now, the only CEO I have to answer to is you, precious God.
02:47How are you?
02:48I do not expect you home so soon.
02:49I have to prep for a meeting with my buyers, and I forgot the binder with all my notes from
02:51the Sprint collection.
02:52Who?
02:53Where are you off to?
02:54All right.
02:55Get out there.
02:56Let's see.
02:57What kind of arm you got?
02:58Is my dad?
02:59Yeah.
03:00Thomas, hi.
03:01What are you doing here?
03:02What are you doing here?
03:03What are you doing here?
03:04What are you doing here?
03:05I do not expect you home so soon.
03:06I have to prep for a meeting with my buyers, and I forgot the binder with all my notes from
03:15the Sprint collection.
03:16What are you off to?
03:17What are you off to?
03:18All right.
03:19Get out there.
03:20Let's see what kind of arm you got.
03:21Is my dad?
03:22Yeah.
03:23Thomas, hi.
03:24What are you doing here?
03:26I have forgotten how well-appointed this house is.
03:45I almost couldn't decide on a room.
03:50Hmm.
03:51And yet I'm sure you somehow managed.
03:53Well, I was always partial to the East Wing, but, um, Kristen said that she can make up
03:59the corner suite, so, um, I don't know, I suppose I'll just gather my belongings from
04:04the Salem Inn and I'll move right in.
04:07No you aren't.
04:09What do you mean I won't?
04:10Are you saying that I won't be moving into the corner suite?
04:12No.
04:13No.
04:14No.
04:15No.
04:16No.
04:17No.
04:18No.
04:19No.
04:20No.
04:21No.
04:22No.
04:23No.
04:24No.
04:25No.
04:26No.
04:27No.
04:28No.
04:29No.
04:30No.
04:31No.
04:32No.
04:33No.
04:34No.
04:35No.
04:36No.
04:37No.
04:38No.
04:39No.
04:40No.
04:41No.
04:42You're saying that I won't be moving into the corner suite?
04:44Not today, at least.
04:45be painted this week, so I'm afraid you're going to have to wait a few days before you can set up camp.
04:55Right, well then I'll just wait until it's all finished, until I make my final selection.
04:59Of course, madam. We want you to be happy during your stay, Shadamira.
05:05Oh yes, I do plan to make myself quite comfortable here.
05:08In a few days...
05:09I heard you, EJ.
05:10Sorry. Well, at least I have the luxury of making my decision from my room at the Salem Inn.
05:21It's a good thing that Dimitri's money makes those hardships bearable.
05:24Hmm, yes. A good thing indeed.
05:32Well, it's such a beautiful evening, I thought I'd take a stroll for sunset.
05:37Yeah, we wanted to take advantage of the weather too, do you?
05:40Yeah, and, um, we wanted to catch?
05:44That's a nice idea, buddy. Um, she loves baseball, but, uh, we only got two gloves.
05:49Oh, another time, okay?
05:54Shad, sure.
05:55Wait, another time.
05:56You could use my gloves.
05:58I have a meeting.
06:06Yeah, and with who?
06:11Oh, I see.
06:12Mr. Secret Agent Man, huh?
06:14You can tell me, but then you'd have to kill me, right?
06:16Yeah, well, I wouldn't go that far.
06:18Well, now that you're back on the FBI, it'll be like it used to be.
06:22Oh, it's a cloak and dagger, you sneaking around.
06:25I was sneaking around. I just told you I have a meeting.
06:28Uh-huh. All right. And it's with who you?
06:31Oh, nice try.
06:32Oh, come on, Rave. Who am I going to tell?
06:34Oh, okay. Fine.
06:38The meeting was with, um, my spring buyers.
06:44Jerk.
06:45Come on, you know the drill, Gabby. You know.
06:47Okay, you're right. You're right. I'm sorry to push.
06:52Look, I know you're my crime-fighting big brother, but please do me a favor and be careful.
06:57Always.
06:59Oh, by the way, did it already make it to the lake safely?
07:02I'm not sure.
07:05Wait, what?
07:07What, hold on. Stop the presses.
07:08You haven't heard from her, and you're not freaking out?
07:12No. I'm not.
07:15I will be if I don't hear from her by tonight.
07:18Rory obviously got caught up in all the excitement and forgot to text me.
07:22Look, over the years, I've learned that the more fun that she's having, the less communication I get.
07:27So I'm guessing that she's having the time of her life.
07:32Oh, my God, Alex, this is amazing.
07:36I know. The art department did a killer job.
07:38But it's just a mock-up, so if you want to make any changes...
07:41No, no, no, I love it.
07:43Good.
07:44And the name, Anastasia Sand.
07:47Mm-hmm. Better than broccoli esperanza, right?
07:50I remember the good call using your Grandma Jo's old romance novels as a way to figure out a pseudonym.
08:00Anastasia was my favorite.
08:01Mm-hmm.
08:02And her one true love was Mr. Sands.
08:04Ah, Mr. Sands.
08:05And, you know, since your grandmother was kind of, sort of, accidentally the one who introduced you to romance novels, it's a nice little tribute.
08:18It's perfect.
08:19Yeah.
08:19I can't believe my book that I wrote in my spare time for fun is going to be out in the world.
08:31And Sean, Kate's coming back to work in Titan this week, and she already said she's making it her top priority to get this thing to press.
08:39Which means she believes as strongly as I do that one stormy night is going to put our book publishing division back on track.
08:49So buckle up.
08:51You are about to be a published author, Miss Anastasia.
08:56Oh, jeez.
08:59You're not going to keep calling me that, are you?
09:01Ah, and it depends.
09:05You're going to try and stop it.
09:06Oh, jeez.
09:09Oh, jeez.
09:39Or not.
09:44Or maybe.
09:48Oh, God.
09:50Oh, God.
09:57Mom!
09:58Hi, sweetheart.
10:02Bad time?
10:03Bad time?
10:03That is a really sweet view.
10:15Thank you, Thomas.
10:16But I can't play catch right now.
10:19It says you love baseball.
10:21That's true.
10:22I'm a huge royals fan.
10:24Wait, cubby's fool.
10:30Did she use my glove to be Bobby Wood Jr.?
10:33Oh, I really wish I could.
10:37I just have some place I gotta be.
10:40Oh my goodness, your bracelet.
10:42Hi.
10:42Hello.
10:43Come here.
10:43Come here.
10:43Come here.
10:43Come here.
10:43Come here.
10:43Come here.
10:43Come here.
10:44Come here.
10:44Come here.
10:44Come here.
10:44Oh, okay.
10:46Sorry.
10:47Anne.
10:48I'm going to be vigorous.
10:50Okay.
10:51Yeah, there.
10:54Anne.
10:56Okay.
10:57That's okay.
10:58I'm going to be good.
10:58Thanks, Dad.
10:58You're welcome.
11:00There we go.
11:00Well, uh, I guess I'll be heading out.
11:05You guys have fun.
11:07We will.
11:08Okay.
11:12She's nice.
11:14Yeah.
11:15Yeah, she is.
11:16So why are you trying to get rid of her?
11:18What?
11:19I wasn't trying to get rid of her.
11:21Seriously?
11:22Yeah.
11:24You think you're talking to me?
11:26I just want a little father-son time.
11:29Is that cool with you?
11:31Shit.
11:32That's cool with you.
11:35I'll get out there and let me see that arm cannon from Santa Fe.
11:47Clearly a walk wasn't the answer.
11:49Come on, darling.
11:51Why isn't this bothering?
11:52You give me a clue.
11:53Is it?
11:54Are you over time?
11:55I mean, you wouldn't be after all this screaming you can do.
11:58Or maybe...
11:59Are you hungry?
12:00What have I got here?
12:02Oh, look, it's your favorite.
12:03You've got fruit snacks.
12:04Come on.
12:05I think maybe we have one of these.
12:08Okay.
12:09I'll have fruit snacks for you.
12:12Um, please.
12:13What else can I possibly do for you, Victoria?
12:16Do you want me to sing?
12:18Dance?
12:19Break dance?
12:22Maybe I can try.
12:23Mr. Smith?
12:33Mr. Smith?
12:38It's Jones.
12:39You can call me.
12:40You can call me Kelly.
12:45Yes, we better get used to these aliases, huh?
12:50Yes, especially since we will probably be texting each other frequently to meet up in places like this.
12:57I have you saved as James Smith, so no one will know who you are.
13:03Well, smart.
13:05Yeah, clever like that.
13:06I see.
13:08So what do you got?
13:10Ah, information on E.J. DeVera's finances.
13:14Ooh.
13:14Excellent.
13:17All right, well, before we get started, I just want to make sure that we both got the same briefing, so can we go over?
13:24Are you all right with that?
13:25Ah, yeah, of course.
13:26Okay.
13:27So, the FBI and the ISA have set up this new interagency task force that we will be working with, and the objective being to take down the demers.
13:41Like, yes, Director Donovan said that the agency's been trying to do this for years with no success, but because of the recent tight takeover, apparently the demers are off their game.
13:52Yeah, that's a perfect time to strike.
13:54Right, and what's the best way to track illegal activity to create arrests?
14:01All of the money.
14:02All of the money.
14:03So, starting with E.J. DeVera's most recent purchase.
14:07In the University Hospital, yeah, exactly, which I already told you, he did not purchase out of the goodness of his heart.
14:14You think it was nefarious by us?
14:15Oh, I'm sure, yeah.
14:18Yeah, but the question is, where did the guy get the money?
14:21I mean, he's rich, but he's not that rich.
14:24So, who chipped in and why?
14:26A failing hospital is hardly a good investment.
14:29No, it's not.
14:31I mean, obviously, he could make billions down the road with VersaVix, but it's going to be years until that drug comes to the market.
14:38So, what is E.J. planning in the short term?
14:42Mm-hmm.
14:43Nothing good, that's for sure.
14:45Right.
14:45So, the sooner we nail that bastard, the better.
14:52This is personal for you, right?
14:55You said you and E.J. have history, right?
14:57I guess I'm just curious.
15:02As to what went down?
15:04I don't want to cry.
15:06No, no, no, it's okay.
15:08I don't mind talking about it.
15:10What exactly do you want to know?
15:11Well, anything, I mean, anything that will help you better understand how E.J. operates.
15:17The more insight I have into how he works, the better I can work.
15:21Right.
15:22Eh.
15:23Well, you better get comfortable, Kelly.
15:26Because this could take a while.
15:30Okay, now.
15:34Speaking of your newfound wealth, that's a rather stunning necklace you're wearing.
15:39Why, thank you, E.J.
15:41Wait a minute, is, isn't that...
15:46The necklace that was stolen from Julie Williams and then sold to Melinda Trask?
15:50Yes.
15:51Yes, it is.
15:53And did you steal it as well?
15:56No, you silly billy.
15:58I bought it from a broker with Demetrius' money.
16:03Although I wasn't really aware of its provenance.
16:05And now that you are, I assume you're going to return it to its rightful owner.
16:11I am the rightful owner.
16:12Uh-huh.
16:13But yes, I suppose I will return it...
16:17...to Julie...
16:19...when health freeze is over.
16:20Of course it's not a bad time.
16:26Come in.
16:27Hi, Alex.
16:27Hey, Dr. Johnson.
16:28Nice to see you.
16:29I missed a button there.
16:30So, Mom, what brings you by?
16:36Well, you know, with all the hospital takeover business, I've done a little, uh, stress-breaking.
16:42Is that apple?
16:44It's actually blueberry.
16:45But to save your father and me from eating all six pies, I thought I would share the wealth.
16:51I can't wait to dig in.
16:52Well, maybe, you know, maybe after dinner.
16:55Why not?
16:56Why not right now?
16:56We can each have a slice.
16:58That sounds great.
17:00But I'm going to go back to my place real quick in the shower.
17:03I'll be right back.
17:07It was a bad time.
17:09Not at all.
17:11Listen, I'm actually really glad that you're here.
17:14Because there's something important I want to talk to you about.
17:24Yeah, thanks for the offer, Gabby, but I'm more than capable of soothing my own daughter today.
17:31Yeah, clearly.
17:33Look, I'm not saying you can't calm her down, but there are times that you try everything and the kid's still inconsolable.
17:39So before you completely lose your mind, it's a good idea to let someone tag in.
17:43Tag in?
17:44Yeah, let someone else give it a shot.
17:47And since you're down a parent...
17:50Your Honor.
17:51So when E.J. reached out to me, I didn't say no immediately because things have been a little slow at S.J.P.R. lately, and this would be a big job.
18:09I see.
18:10And believe me, Mom, I know what a jerk E.J. is.
18:14But I wouldn't be working for him.
18:16I'd be working for the hospital and for you.
18:19And this meeting is tomorrow.
18:23And with everything E.J. has going on, I don't think that he would bother to sit down with me unless he was prepared to make an offer.
18:31The question is, should I accept it?
18:36Well, you know, I don't think I need to tell you that I think that you would be a tremendous asset to the hospital.
18:41I mean, look what you did to help our fundraiser.
18:43Thank you. That was hardly just me.
18:46Don't sell yourself short.
18:49You are excellent at what you do, and I think the hospital would be lucky to have you.
18:53So you think I should take the job?
18:56Actually, no.
18:58I think that you should run the other way.
19:00And don't look back.
19:01So you still have issues with the Grand Dam of the Horton clan, do you?
19:11Well, yes.
19:13I hate the whole bloody lot of them.
19:15Why wouldn't I after that hag Laura sent me and my mom packing before I was even born?
19:20Holding on to this grudge since the womb, then?
19:22It's not as if a single one of them was even the least bit contrite or empathetic towards me.
19:31And they treated me like rubbish when I first moved to Salem, so no.
19:35I don't exactly have a very high opinion of them.
19:39Hmm.
19:41Hmm.
19:43Is that it? That's all you have to say? Hmm?
19:45Well, as a former newspaper woman, I'm sure you're familiar with there being two sides to every story.
19:51Yes, of course I am.
19:53And you should also know, after being relentlessly vilified by those wannabe saints, that you ought to be on my side.
20:04Gwen?
20:06Hello, Chad.
20:11Is...
20:12E.J. replaced you with a look-alike again.
20:18And then reinstated him as police commissioner.
20:22I don't understand how this man is not behind bars.
20:24I ask myself that question every day.
20:27And I also don't understand how he manages to do all of these horrible things and still come off so normal.
20:34Well, he's a textbook sociopath.
20:36I mean, his charming demeanor hides the fact that he has no conscience.
20:40So E.J. only cares about one person.
20:43That is himself.
20:44And he will do anything, no matter how wrong it is, to get what he wants.
20:49And how he runs a hospital, which is scary.
20:52Terrifying.
20:54Which is why we need to stop him.
20:56Now.
20:57Yeah.
20:57I had zero interest in returning to the ISA.
21:03Director Donovan told me how much was at stake and how well-positioned I am.
21:10So I agreed, but...
21:12To be frank, it is also personal for me.
21:17The doctors at University Hospital saved my baby sister's life.
21:21Oh.
21:21So I have absolutely no interest in allowing someone to mess with that place.
21:25Yeah.
21:28Well, I'm glad you're on board.
21:31For this mission, at least.
21:33I told the director I'm one and done.
21:35I mean, I knew we were going to be investigating E.J. DiMera, but I had no idea what a super villain he was.
21:41And he's also the brother of...
21:45Of?
21:47A friend of mine.
21:49Do you mean, Chad?
21:59How lovely to see you, Chad.
22:02And you as well, Thomas.
22:05My, my.
22:06Look how very grown-up you are.
22:08Wasn't expecting to see you here, Dwight.
22:09And I wasn't expecting to see you, brother.
22:11What brings you by?
22:13Well, Thomas forgot some of his action figures up in Rachel's when the last time he was here to play, so...
22:17Oh, well, don't let us keep you.
22:20Can you ask a grand question?
22:23Yes, of course you can, my darling.
22:25Ask away.
22:27Why do you have Aunt Julia's necklace?
22:30And why won't you give it back?
22:39Well, I appreciate your concern for Chad, but he knows very well about his family's history.
22:48Now, he published an expose on the front page of the Spectator, laying it all out.
22:53I remember this beside himself, thinking that was the reason E.J. got shot.
22:59He cares a great deal about his brother.
23:02He also cares about justice.
23:04He's the good DiMero.
23:05When the DiMero's aren't busy stabbing each other in the back, they are closing ranks to make their legal problems go away.
23:18But not Chad.
23:18In fact, if we find the goods on E.J., he won't stand in the way, and he won't hold it against you either.
23:29Well, it's actually not me I'm concerned about.
23:33I...
23:33I have two younger siblings, Aaron and Felicity, and they've been through a lot in the last few years.
23:42If anything happened to them because I got roped back into the ISA, I...
23:46No, I get it. I get it.
23:47I'm the oldest in my family, too, and I am very protective of my siblings.
23:57I'm sure they're protective of you, too.
24:01I bet they don't love you doing this dangerous work.
24:05Yeah, probably not.
24:07But I think that they know I'm not an adrenaline junkie, and the reason I chose this career is to make the world a safer place.
24:17It's like you enjoy the job.
24:21Yeah, I do.
24:23I mean, I don't even know if I would call it a job.
24:27It's, um, more of a calling.
24:31Something I feel compelled to do.
24:36Seems like you're the same way.
24:37Here you go, Carina.
24:45Sweet dreams.
24:49How did you do that?
24:52Uh...
24:52I didn't really do anything.
24:55She cried herself out and she was ready to sleep.
24:57No, no, no, no.
24:58Before you showed up, I walked around town for over an hour, and she never even came close to drifting off.
25:03And then the moment you pick her up, she's out like a light.
25:06I...
25:06Don't overthink it.
25:08How can I not?
25:10My daughter's forgotten who I am.
25:12Not a chance, Xander.
25:14Remember, she's been coming from you for a month.
25:18For a toddler, that's a lifetime.
25:22You two just need to get reacquainted.
25:26I hope you're right, Gabby.
25:28I never thought it'd be this difficult for her.
25:32Or me.
25:32You don't think I should take a job at your hospital?
25:40It's not my hospital.
25:41It's EJ's.
25:43Mom, you're chief of staff.
25:44You have a huge say over everything that goes on around there.
25:47Listen, if his budget proposal is in the indication he wants to make some big changes...
25:54Do you think he's gonna try to get you fired like Seth Burns did?
25:58If that's the case, I am definitely taking the job to keep EJ in check.
26:01You know what?
26:02I appreciate your loyalty.
26:03But listen, I can handle EJ.
26:05If he gets out of line, I can push back.
26:08But a PR person for him, it would be really pretty tricky.
26:12What do you mean?
26:13Well, EJ's gonna want you to make him look good.
26:16He's gonna demand that you put the rosiest possible spin on anything he does with the hospital.
26:22Even if it's not remotely rosy at all.
26:26And God forbid he does anything illegal, he's gonna want you to turn away.
26:29And what about all the fires that you're gonna put out because he prizes profit over patient care?
26:38Listen, I just hate to see you compromise your integrity and your morals for a paycheck.
26:46Mom, I would quit before it ever came to bat.
26:48And I think you'd agree that the hospital is in desperate need of positive press.
26:55Even long before EJ came along.
26:58Well, I will admit that there has been quite a shadow over everything since financial crisis started.
27:04Mm-hmm.
27:04And while I would never mislead the public, I can put the focus back where it belongs.
27:12On the incredible work that the hospital does to make people's lives better.
27:20Who's ready to get us some pie?
27:21Yeah.
27:22Um, well, you know, I can get going and let you two get back to whatever it is you were doing and...
27:28Oh, I'm sorry.
27:30Oh, uh, oh.
27:32What's this?
27:33You know what, that is an excellent question, Thomas.
27:50Why won't you give Julie Snackless back and Gwen?
27:53Oh, well, Thomas, I'm afraid that there has been a slight disagreement as to whom Nicholas actually belongs to.
28:03But I'm sure it'll be sorted very soon.
28:07It better be.
28:14I mean, oh, like I said, I do, you know, really care about the hospital.
28:21So maybe, yeah, I guess I did feel called to this particular mission.
28:30I just, I'm not sure I'm ready for this.
28:37What?
28:38The director said that you were one of the best analysts he'd ever worked with.
28:42Yeah, no, I just, what we're doing may require us being out in the field from time to time.
28:50And I was not trained for that at all.
28:52Oh, right.
28:53Well, I'm sure you're more prepared than you think.
28:55And besides, don't worry.
28:58I've got your back.
29:01Ah, thank you.
29:03Yeah, of course.
29:05Listen, if it would make you feel better, I could, uh, show you some basic self-defense moves, stuff that we learned at the academy.
29:12Yeah, yeah, yeah, that would be great.
29:13I mean, if it's not too much trouble.
29:16Well, no trouble at all.
29:23I'm getting reacquainted with my daughter, too.
29:26And trust me, compared to an 18-year-old, Victoria's a breeze.
29:30Well, and she's being quiet right now, so maybe we could do a little work.
29:34Right.
29:35Let's.
29:35Okay, so, I have the latest numbers for the Gabby Chic Spring Collection.
29:41Should give us an idea of projected or less.
29:43Well, it'd certainly be better if we had a completed marketing reel, but Johnny still hasn't gotten around to it.
29:49We have time.
29:50Well, he was also supposed to shoot the joint statement under West Philip today.
29:55I told him to come back after lunch, and he's nowhere to be found.
29:58In his defense, I heard he had some kind of personal emergency.
30:03I wonder if that has anything to do with the fact that he's just been charged with trying to kill his own father.
30:07And while I am fully behind anyone who wants to take out EJ, I'm really starting to think that maybe he, you know, Johnny wasn't the best choice to handle rehabilitating company's image, you know?
30:19Well, since you were also recently charged with attempted murder...
30:23Those charges were tried.
30:24I'm just saying, since you know what Johnny's going through, maybe you can cut him some slack.
30:30Well, the shareholders won't cut me any slack if the stock price keeps dropping.
30:33We need to get that video out now.
30:35Zeta, relax.
30:37It's all going to get done.
30:41Why are you so calm?
30:44So unlike me, right?
30:46I don't know.
30:48Maybe it's because you're stressed out enough for the both of us.
30:54Oh, that's, uh, just the cover of a book that is publishing.
30:59Oh, wow.
31:00One Stormy Night is fabulous.
31:03You read it?
31:04Yeah, there was a manuscript going around the hospital and the entire staff read it.
31:08I think it should be really called One Steamy Night.
31:13So you liked it?
31:14Oh, yeah.
31:16I mean, I found it, uh, engaging and, uh, a real page-turner.
31:20Wow.
31:21Uh, I think that this, uh, I don't know where you found this, uh, Anastasia Sands, but I think she's about to make amends, as is Titan.
31:29Here's still open.
31:31Yeah, have you read it?
31:33Not exactly.
31:35Well, you should make sure that Alice lets you have a sneak peek.
31:38I, you know, and like I said, I think it's really going to be a bestseller.
31:42Yeah, me too.
31:44Anyway, good night, you two.
31:46Good night.
31:49Enjoy the pie.
31:50Hey, you will.
31:51Hey, now, buddy, why don't you run upstairs and grab your action figures and then we'll take off, okay?
32:08Right.
32:13I had to be nice to you in front of my son, but the way he treated you last night made me sick.
32:19But now I have the displeasure of seeing you again.
32:24For who?
32:25I want you gone.
32:27Whatever you're doing here in Salem, wrap it up, fast.
32:33Well, I'm afraid I can't do that.
32:35As I said, I do have a few new sins to tie up, so...
32:39Okay, well, I don't know what that means and I don't care.
32:42I'm watching you.
32:44Stay away from my family.
32:46What family?
32:47You know, as your son pointed out, I am his aunt, which means I am part of your family.
32:55On both sides, actually.
32:57Because I'm still Dimitri's wife.
33:00And you know what that makes me?
33:02A Demira.
33:03And I'll tell you what.
33:06I'm going to really embrace that.
33:09I mean, I want to soak it in and I want to soak it up.
33:12So, I'm moving into the family home.
33:17Well, I'm glad that my total frustration with both my personal and professional life is bringing me up as an end in you.
33:33No.
33:33Well, don't worry.
33:35I'm sure it won't be long till I'm flipping out over something.
33:39Well, at least we know I won't be a crying baby.
33:42Thank you, Kat.
33:44For your help.
33:45Don't mention it.
33:46You have no idea how many people helped me out with Ariana over the years.
33:53Co-parenting is a challenge.
33:56It's worth it.
33:57Is this where you're telling me to count my bliss?
34:05Like I said this morning, I remember when Ari was a sage, time just flew by.
34:15And whenever I got sad that my baby was growing up, I'd comfort myself by saying that I'd have another one and get to do it all over again.
34:24But I can't.
34:34So, yes, Xander.
34:37Be grateful for what you have.
34:41Try.
34:45How hard can it be?
34:47I mean, look around.
34:49You have everything you ever wanted.
34:54Everything.
34:54Except Sarah.
35:01This info you got on EJ's financials definitely raises some flags.
35:06I mean, ISA Intel indicated that EJ didn't have the funds to purchase the hospital on his own.
35:13This deeper debt confirms it.
35:15Yeah, so there's only one way you could have purchased it.
35:17Yeah.
35:17Yeah.
35:18I'm a valuable silent partner.
35:19So we need to find out who that silent partner is.
35:24Why they want to stay silent.
35:25Oh, my God.
35:30My mother read this.
35:31My mother, she read page 89 and page 104.
35:36Why are you smiling?
35:39You're cute when you blush.
35:41I'm not cute, Alex.
35:42I'm mortified.
35:43I'm humiliated.
35:44I'm...
35:45Overreacting.
35:46How can you say that?
35:48Do you remember what's in these pages?
35:49No, I sure as hell do.
35:51Babe, babe, it doesn't matter what pages your mother read.
35:55She doesn't know that you wrote the book.
35:56But I know.
35:58Mom.
35:59Ugh.
36:00There are two people in this world that I didn't want to read this book, and she is one of them.
36:03Oh, yeah?
36:04Who's the other one?
36:04My dad, doll.
36:13But since neither of them are here right now, why don't we pick up where we left off?
36:32Page 86.
36:34But we need to look at this game.
36:36Slow, too.
36:37And I'm sorry.
36:39Bye.
36:40Bye.
36:48Bye.
36:49Bye.
36:52Bye.
36:53Bye.
36:53Bye.
36:54Bye.
36:54Bye.
36:54Bye.
36:55Bye.
36:56Bye.
36:57Bye.
36:58Bye.
36:59Bye.
37:00Bye.
37:00Bye.
37:02Bye.
37:03Bye.
37:03Bye.
37:04Bye.
37:04Bye.
