00:00Okay, so you were selected to be a juror in Johnny DeMira's trial. What's the big deal?
00:14The big deal is it's the scandal of this entry and now I can't cover it for the spectator.
00:19Okay, so you're not going to win your Pulitzer for trial coverage, but if this thing is as
00:24sensational as you think, then you'll have a front row seat. You know, I mean, who better
00:30to write a tell-all book than you when it's all over? Wait, what if after the trial I write
00:37a book about it? Didn't I just say that? Oh, I guess. It just sounds way different coming
00:44for me. It always does. But don't you want to do your civic duty? Not on my bucket list,
00:54no. Well, it should be. And speaking of your civic duty, there is a little guy here eagerly
01:03awaiting his uncle Leo. Okay, let me just finish up here and then I'll head home. In the meantime,
01:11give a tea kiss for me. Why, Mrs. Von Leishner? What brings you to the square looking so
01:19winsome in your stolen jewelry? Well, aren't you a laugh riot, Matty? Actually, I was headed
01:28over to the spectator office to pay a visit to my old stomping grounds. Oh. Feeling nostalgic,
01:35are we? Nostalgic? Curious. But now that you're here, perhaps you can fill me in on what's
01:43going on at that third-rate publication.
01:48Well, since you gave up your half of that first-rate publication, I'm happy to report
01:52that things are looking up. With you as their star journalist, please. Don't let me laugh.
01:59You know, that is just gratuitously unkind, as is your coming back to Salem for the sole
02:04purpose of flaunting that necklace in Julie's face. It's my necklace now, as I have told you
02:08before, and it is not my sole purpose for coming back here. Well, whatever your purpose is,
02:12you are absolutely giving off some vacuous, vindictive Real Housewives vibes. I don't get
02:18mad, I get even, right? Words to live by. Oh, yeah, you go, girl. Teach the people of Salem
02:23the lesson by taking some great-grandmother's necklace. You know, this necklace is just the
02:30appetizer. Well, I dread hearing what the main horse is. In fact, I don't want to know.
02:36Really? The nosy little gossip queen scandal-monger of Salem doesn't want to know?
02:42Okay, let me qualify that. If it's illegal, I do want to know, because then I'm going to
02:47cover it and expose you. Let me tell you something, Maddie. I do have a full course planned with
02:56Amos Bouche and Dessert, but I only intend on telling my most close and trustworthy friends,
03:03and not the lying wanker who blew up my marriage.
03:12Hey, hey, you here to record my statement with Xander?
03:15Yeah, yeah, uh, and again, thank you so much for pushing this to today. I really wanted to get
03:21it done before my trial starts tomorrow. Oh, wow. I didn't realize it was happening that soon.
03:29Have you spoken to HR about it? Yeah, I, uh, let them know I might need to miss a couple of weeks.
03:35Maybe more? Let's hope not.
03:42Look, Philip, I, I swear to you, I did not shoot my father, okay? I didn't, but if you feel like you
03:51need to fire me for PR reasons, I'll understand.
04:02So, uh, do you want to go home now? To rest?
04:08Oh, not yet.
04:12I'm not sure if anyone is at home, but I'd rather not be alone.
04:15Um, I, I understand.
04:18Yeah.
04:21What are you thinking?
04:27Just about how excited I was when Ari first told me that she was coming to Salem.
04:32I was so happy that she wanted to be with me.
04:36I missed her so much.
04:40And now.
04:42No.
04:47I wish I told her no.
04:50Don't come.
04:52She was thriving in Arizona with Will and Sunny, and ever since she's been here, it's been nothing
04:58but misery and chaos, and she's been acting out, and she's been defiant, and, oh my God,
05:03Sandra, I feel like it's all my fault.
05:05I mean, no.
05:06But it is.
05:10I'm a terrible lover.
05:15Oh, there has to be another way out of here.
05:18Huh?
05:18I mean, how is there not, like, a window or an emergency exit or something?
05:21I don't know.
05:22Probably the reason the jerk's stuck is in here in the first place.
05:25We're lucky there's a bathroom.
05:28Damn it.
05:29I have a stupid bobby pin broke.
05:32Do you really think this is going to work?
05:34I don't know.
05:34Maybe.
05:34I've picked a lot before when I was stuck in the arts of my room, but this lot isn't
05:38catching.
05:41I don't think it's going to work.
05:42Oh, my God, I think this is it.
05:50Holly, I think I just may have found our way out.
05:52Like sand through the hourglass, so are the days of our lives.
05:57Like sand through the hourglass, so are the days of our lives.
06:22Holly, you know what I said to take you home with me, I had no idea how hard it was going
06:42to be to even think about saying goodbye to you to me to even think about saying goodbye to you.
06:46Well, we won't have to say goodbye anytime soon.
06:51I hope.
06:52And no matter what happens, little T, you'll always be in my heart.
07:04You know what, I'd rather not know what your plans are, illegal or otherwise.
07:15Although if they do involve breaking the law, there's an excellent chance I'm going to uncover
07:20and expose them.
07:21Really, with you as a top-notch journalist, no wonder the spectators are in the rubbish bin.
07:28Actually, ad revenue is beating expectations.
07:31Online subscriptions are way up, thank you very much.
07:34And I suspect they will go even higher once I publish this little tidbit I have on one Miss
07:40Gwenevere von Lushner.
07:42Oh?
07:45What is this tidbit that you have?
07:47Oh, you'll read about it soon enough.
07:49What is it that you have, Leo?
07:51Ah, okay.
07:54I saw you heading into the Salem Inn with a man the other night.
07:57How shall I describe him?
07:59Let's see.
07:59Washboard abs, a chest that could double as a landing strip.
08:02Kind of looks like Chris Hemsworth when he's in his Thor mode.
08:07So you saw him at Xander then, did you?
08:09Ding, ding, ding.
08:10And the burning question is, are you really running headfirst into that buzzsaw again?
08:17Expectating minds won't help.
08:19Yeah, I mean, from everything I've seen, you're a great mother.
08:28Thank you for saying that, even if you don't believe it.
08:31Well, I do.
08:31Look, I know you and I have had our, uh, differences in the past.
08:37I can see how much you love your daughter.
08:41And I totally understand what you're going through.
08:43I mean, how frustrating it is when you can't protect your own child.
08:48That's the scariest thing I've ever been through.
08:50Victoria was kidnapped.
08:53But we got a happy ending.
08:56Our little girl came home.
08:59And I wish you the same for Ariana.
09:01No one is going to ask you to leave the company, Johnny.
09:11You say you're innocent.
09:12And I believe you.
09:15You'll beat these charges and be back at work soon.
09:17I appreciate your faith in me.
09:22I'll let HR know we spoke.
09:25Right.
09:26Um, okay.
09:27Well, I'm going to go grab my tripod.
09:29Uh, would you mind, uh, just letting Xander know I'm almost ready to record your statement?
09:34Will do.
09:35Okay.
09:39Gabby, hey.
09:39I'm in a rush.
09:41Something wrong?
09:43Yeah.
09:44Something's very wrong.
09:45I can't talk about it right now.
09:50Hold on right there.
09:52Rafe, God, man, you scared me.
09:54What are you doing here?
09:58This is Holly's glass ring.
09:59Felicity found it outside her gymnastics gym.
10:02Right over there.
10:03You're looking for Holly and Ari?
10:04Yeah.
10:05I mean, I figured they have to be in this industrial park somewhere.
10:07That's why you're here, right?
10:08Yeah, I just checked with the owners.
10:10The only warehouses that are unoccupied are 12 and 18.
10:12I'm starting at 12.
10:13Okay.
10:14All right, then I'll check 18 while you're here.
10:15No, no, no, no.
10:16It's way too dangerous.
10:18Rafe, you already arrested the guy, right?
10:19Yeah, but the guy's not talking.
10:20We don't know if he has a complicit or not.
10:22Okay, but every single second that we wait.
10:24I've already called us back.
10:25Just stay here when the police get here.
10:27Let them know where I went, okay?
10:29Can you do that?
10:31Sure.
10:31Yeah.
10:32Okay.
10:38Check it out.
10:45What are you days?
10:46I don't know.
10:46I mean, it looks like an air duct or something.
10:48If we can get this grade off, we can use it to crawl away to freedom.
10:50Okay, but we don't know where it leads to.
10:53Well, I see daylight, so it has to lead to the roof or the side of the building or something.
11:01Listen, I know it's a long shot, Holly, but it beats sitting around here, running away.
11:05I mean, you want to see Tate again, don't you?
11:07Your family?
11:07Yes, of course.
11:09Then what do we have to lose?
11:11Okay, yeah, fine.
11:18Screwed it.
11:18God, I don't suppose there's a screwdriver in here or, like, a metal pipe we can pry it open with.
11:24Holly, you're brilliant.
11:26Well, I think it's a sooner.
11:40So, what if I went to the Salem Inn with Xander?
11:43Well, for starters, he's a married man.
11:44Oh, really?
11:49For a self-proclaimed journalist who claims he knows his dad, you really are behind, darling,
11:54because Xander and Sarah are on the rocks.
11:57Oh, I'm well aware that there's trouble in paradise.
11:59But you know as well as I do, those two always find their way back to each other.
12:04What if this time they don't?
12:07Well, if that's because of your influence,
12:09I would say that you are a fool for going down that road with Xander again.
12:13Oh, and you suddenly care what road I happen to go down now.
12:16Yeah, I do.
12:17Because I was there, remember?
12:19I saw how Xander used you and broke your heart,
12:22and I would take no pleasure in watching that happen again.
12:30Yes, I admit I did hit rock bottom when Xander left me for Sarah.
12:34I've hit rock bottom many times for many different reasons.
12:42Do you know what really broke my heart, Matty?
12:48You.
12:49What did you do to Gabby?
12:57What the hell did you say to her?
12:59Excuse me.
13:01She just ran out of here in tears.
13:03Oh, and you assumed that was my fault.
13:05Okay, uh, where do you want me to set up?
13:10This is a bad time?
13:12What did I mean?
13:25Uh, hi.
13:27You okay?
13:28I thought you had some big meeting.
13:30Uh, it was canceled.
13:32Xander sent me home.
13:34How come?
13:38Ari's missing.
13:39She's been kidnapped.
13:43What?
13:44Oh, my God.
13:50Oh, my God, I can't believe that actually worked.
13:52I told you it just needs to let's go.
13:54Okay.
13:55Wait, are you sure you want to go in there?
13:57Hell no, but I'm gonna.
14:08How's it looking?
14:09It's dirty.
14:11It's very, very dirty, but, um, it's big enough for you to be.
14:15Oh, you can't.
14:16What's happening?
14:19Um, I'm fine.
14:20I just, um, I crawled through a spider web.
14:24Did you see a spider?
14:25Not yet, but I just, I don't know, crawled in front of me.
14:29You're the man.
14:31Oh, I think I can do it.
14:32Okay, that's amazing.
14:33Keep going.
14:34Well, it's not like you can turn around.
14:35Okay, Mickey.
14:39How many?
14:40If you stay out of my way, I promise I'll stay out of yours.
14:49What?
14:50Another mouse?
14:53No worse.
14:53Holly, Holly, I think I'm stuck.
14:55Do you have any idea how much you hurt me?
15:10How devastated I was by your betrayal?
15:12Of course I do.
15:15And if you'd ever listened to any of my hundreds of gravelly voicemails, or read any of my gravelly
15:20texts, you would know that that is the biggest regret of my life.
15:27If I thought it would make any difference, I would literally crawl through glass and beg
15:31you for forgiveness.
15:36Well, as much as I would love to see that, it wouldn't make a difference.
15:43Because you planted a knife in my back so deep it can't be removed.
15:46If it's any consolation, when it comes to Dimitri, we both lost big.
16:01At least you got his fortune.
16:03All I got was a Dear Leo letter that looked like it was written by a third grader.
16:10Well, it looks like you've recovered nicely, doesn't it?
16:13You even got yourself into a nice sparkly relationship.
16:16Yeah.
16:20Harvey is a good man.
16:23He's kind, he's funny.
16:24Totally gets me.
16:27Lucky you.
16:30Yeah.
16:34Lucky him.
16:39You don't mean that.
16:43I do, actually.
16:46I have to keep going.
16:55Harvey needs me to take care of the baby.
16:57Sure, perhaps you're happy as one family.
17:11Sorry I had to postpone this yesterday, guys.
17:15Hey, you said you were dealing with a personal matter.
17:18We understand.
17:19Of course we do.
17:20Of course we do.
17:22However, perhaps you starting work here right now wasn't good timing.
17:29What?
17:31I thought I just told Johnny his job here is safe.
17:34And hey, you're the one who hired him, Xander.
17:36I did, yes.
17:38Because at the time, Johnny was all in on undermining his father.
17:42Whereas, thanks to your poor judgment, Phillip, EJ now runs the hospital.
17:47And Johnny and his dad are all kumbaya again.
17:49Which is why I'm no longer sure that having you here at Tyson's Amara is a good idea.
17:59Reef is out looking for Ari and Holly right now.
18:01Okay.
18:02Well, that's good.
18:03Does he have any leads?
18:05You know, I haven't heard from him and I can't reach him.
18:08I'll tell you what.
18:12You watch Little T.
18:13I'll head into work early and I'll see if I can find out anything, okay?
18:17That'll be great.
18:20You'll call me with any news right away?
18:22Of course.
18:28Thank you, Holly.
18:30Thank you for having me in there, okay?
18:32Okay.
18:33And do yourself a favor and think positive.
18:36Because we are going to find your little girl.
18:38Okay.
18:45Warehouse 18.
18:47Okay.
18:49Ari!
18:50Ari!
18:52Help me, please, Ari!
18:54Ari, Ari, hang on.
18:55Okay, I'm going to crawl in there trying to pull you.
18:56Hurry, go, wait, wait.
18:57Don't, don't.
18:57You'll just get stuck, too.
18:58Are you stuck?
18:59Yes, yes.
19:00I'm so grateful.
19:00Why did everybody feel me, right?
19:02Get me in tight.
19:03I'm tight.
19:04Ari, I can't breathe.
19:05Ari, I think you're just panicking, okay?
19:07You need to relax.
19:08Just, just breathe in.
19:09Breathe out.
19:11Holly, Ari!
19:12Dean?
19:13Dean, is that you were not today?
19:14Ari, Holly, I'm here.
19:16I'm here.
19:17Stay back!
19:18Oh, sorry.
19:20Oh, sorry.
19:25It's all right.
19:25Oh, sorry.
19:26It's all right.
19:27Oh, sorry.
19:28Hey, look.
19:36Yeah, yeah, my dad and I are on better terms.
19:40I admit that.
19:40But my loyalty is to you and this company.
19:43Well, the loyalties can be fickle, right, Philip?
19:46Hang on, Johnny.
19:47Can you give us a second?
19:48Sure.
19:49For God's sake, Sandra, you can't fire Johnny just because he's made nice with his father.
20:00It would be an HR, NPR nightmare.
20:04One we can't afford right now.
20:06Besides, Johnny's skill set is useful here.
20:10And what exactly is his skill set?
20:12He has great ideas for building the brand and a knack for telling stories.
20:19At a time when we're trying to paint the picture of a united and forward-thinking family,
20:24we can really use someone like him.
20:28Oh, so he's just here to whitewash your lies and betray him.
20:32Now, you know what, look, guys.
20:34I don't want to cause any problems, so, Xander, if you want me to resign, I will...
20:37You're not, Johnny.
20:40This conversation is over.
20:41Can we just record this video?
20:45Fine.
20:46I mean, so I'm at your time to call Victoria's dust.
20:50It's like I have a sixth sense.
20:53Like you said, good thing we don't let personal matters interfere in the workplace.
20:59Say one more word about my daughter, I dare you.
21:08I remember when Ari was so small.
21:11And like your mom, I wasn't around for her.
21:21I never stopped loving my darling girl or worrying about her.
21:29No matter how old she is, she will always be my baby.
21:44Hi.
21:45Javi just texted me about Ari.
21:47I am so sorry.
21:49I can't even begin to imagine what you're going through.
21:57Javi?
21:58Great news!
21:59I just heard on the radio Huffa found Ari and Holly.
22:02I don't know the details, but she and Holly are at some warehouse.
22:12I'm on my way to see her.
22:14Okay.
22:17From the bottom of my heart, thank you.
22:19Please call me as soon as you have eyes on her.
22:23I will.
22:23I'm really happy for you, Rima.
22:29Javi, there are no words.
22:32More soon.
22:37Maybe he's been following me.
22:39Yeah, I pretty much got the idea.
22:41I mean, as you can tell, I'm completely proclamined.
22:44Two.
22:45Would it be okay if I...
22:49Yeah, sure.
22:57It's okay.
22:58It's all right?
23:00It's all right.
23:03Holly.
23:04Oh, my God.
23:04It's so good to see you.
23:05It's really good to see you.
23:08Wait, where's Ari?
23:09She's in there.
23:11She was trying to find a way out and got stuck.
23:14Okay.
23:15I'll tell you why you take her outside to meet up with the police.
23:17No matter.
23:18Let them know where I am.
23:19And I need assistance, okay?
23:20Yeah, got it.
23:21All right, let's go.
23:21Let's go.
23:23Ari.
23:24Ray's here.
23:24You're going to be okay.
23:25I'll see you in your stays.
23:29Ari.
23:31Hey, it's Ray.
23:32Can you hear me?
23:33Uncle Ray, Ray, something's happening.
23:36Ari.
23:40Ari.
23:43Hey, you're sure you're okay?
23:44I just need to make sure Rafe's going to get Ari out of there safely.
23:48I mean, she was so brave to go in there to hate.
23:51I thought it was her only hope.
23:53Ari, you must have been so scared.
23:56It's all right.
23:56It's all right.
23:57I know.
23:58I know.
23:59It's okay.
24:01You're safe now.
24:04It's okay.
24:07I'm only safe because of you.
24:09It's all right.
24:16Ari?
24:17Ari, it's Rafe.
24:18Can you hear me?
24:20Ari?
24:27Ari?
24:29Ari?
24:29Ari?
24:29Ari?
24:30Ari?
24:30Ari?
24:30Ari?
24:31Ari?
24:33Ari?
24:34Ari?
24:35Ari?
24:35Ari?
24:36Ari?
24:36Ari?
24:37Ari?
24:37Ari?
24:38and now that i've recovered from my injuries and i've been fully exonerated of the false
24:44charges against me my brother and i are united in our efforts to stabilize and grow titan
24:50dimera for a brighter more successful future oh we're gonna do it together and we're out
24:58how was it very convincing would have been a lot better if my brother had stuck to the script
25:08i said just what we agreed upon we agreed upon the script you were ad-libbing all over the place
25:13i was just trying to be natural and why is she not with an ad
25:17are you information philip i've spoken to hr about starting a daycare building the licensing doesn't
25:27happen overnight oh in the meantime i've got a great idea why don't you let her go back home
25:33to be with her mother instead of trapping her in that cage all day it's not a cage it's a
25:38portable crib call it what you want it looks like a tiny little prison
25:44i want you not to talk about my daughter

29:35really
29:37beforehand
29:38time. Uh, well, I'm gonna go edit this statement, uh, send it back to you for review. If there's
29:48nothing else, that'll be all, Johnny. Good luck tomorrow. Thank you.
30:00Oh, God, it is no good, Philip. This is a nightmare. I, just being in your presence with my gorge
30:07driver, I just learned working with you. Well, I'm not quitting, so unless you are, the only
30:13alternative is to send you to the Hong Kong office. What? Hong Kong? It's all this place
30:20I can think of. Right. Well, actually, I think that would, that would be the perfect setting
30:28for you. I'm sure Sarah would agree.
30:37Your uncle is trying to get under my skin, isn't he, darling? And unfortunately, he is
30:53succeeding. Well, if we can't live with him, and we can't smother him with a pillow, we'll
31:04just have to come up with a more creative solution.
31:15You know, little T, because of how I was raised, or rather neglected, I always thought that if
31:23I ever got to be a dad, which was highly doubtful, still is, of course, but I thought that I would
31:30end up screwing up my kid the same way I would screw it up. But now, you bring out the best
31:41in me to sorrow. And I'm starting to think that maybe I'm not so bad at this parenting thing
31:51after. Except, I definitely feel like I'm a little overprotective, you know?
32:02Like, like the thought of anything bad ever happening to you. I can't even think about it.
32:16I would protect you with my life to sorrow. No questions asked.
32:36Her oxygen levels have returned to normal, but I just want to take her to the hospital,
32:39you know, as a precaution. No. Bruce. I love you. I'm so sorry, Mom. No, no, no, no.
32:54Baby, it's, it's, it's not your fault. I'm just so relieved. You're okay? I love you so much.
33:00I love you. I love you. I'm sorry. She is gonna be just fine. Oh, God. Yeah. Holly, Sean asked me to
33:23bring you down to the station so you can give a statement. Well, right now. No, it's a, it's a group.
33:27I want to do it. Okay, good. You can call your mom on the way and, uh, I'll drive. You can let her
33:32know you're fine. Okay. And I'm sure they're gonna want to hear from you. My guess is they'll be in
33:36touch. Okay. All right. Thank you for being my hero today. All right. I'll call you as soon as I'm done.
33:57Hi. Voicemail from Sophia. Hey, Sophia. Sorry, I missed your call earlier. I'm in labor.
34:08Oh, my God.
