00:00:00Hi.
00:00:25Sorry, I couldn't meet you at the airport.
00:00:27I missed you.
00:00:30I wanted to be there.
00:00:31I've just been spread so thin with Devon and Lily gone.
00:00:35I don't care about that.
00:00:37I mean, I've missed you since I've been gone.
00:00:40It's been so long.
00:00:41All I've wanted is for you to hold me.
00:00:43That's all I want, too.
00:00:48I...
00:00:48I'm so sorry about Damien.
00:00:52I still can't believe what happened.
00:00:55And then I wasn't able to tell you myself.
00:00:58Look, but I'm here now for you and for Amy.
00:01:00Whatever you need.
00:01:02It's okay.
00:01:04I know.
00:01:05But it's not okay.
00:01:07Look, I'm still in shock.
00:01:09I wish I'd never gone.
00:01:14Going to knees was a huge mistake.
00:01:16I wish I'd never gone.
00:01:17I wish I'd never gone.
00:01:18I wish I'd never gone.
00:01:18I wish I'd never gone.
00:01:19I wish I'd never gone.
00:01:20I wish I'd never gone.
00:01:21I wish I'd never gone.
00:01:22I wish I'd never gone.
00:01:23I wish I'd never gone.
00:01:24I wish I'd never gone.
00:01:25I wish I'd never gone.
00:01:26I wish I'd never gone.
00:01:27I wish I'd never gone.
00:01:28I wish I'd never gone.
00:01:29I wish I'd never gone.
00:01:30I wish I'd never gone.
00:01:31I wish I'd never gone.
00:01:32I wish I'd never gone.
00:01:33I wish I'd never gone.
00:01:34I wish I'd never gone.
00:01:35I wish I'd never gone.
00:01:36I wish I'd never gone.
00:01:37I wish I'd never gone.
00:01:38Oh, it is so good to be back home.
00:01:59And not a maze in sight.
00:02:01No kidding.
00:02:03How are you feeling after that long flight?
00:02:06I'm totally healthy.
00:02:07Well, maybe not totally.
00:02:11I'll be all right.
00:02:13You've been quiet?
00:02:15I can't stop thinking about chance.
00:02:19So awful.
00:02:21I know the two of you were close.
00:02:23He was special.
00:02:25And he was a good friend to me.
00:02:28So kind and patient during the nightmare with Heather.
00:02:31Summer is gutted.
00:02:34So is Abby.
00:02:35Oh, she's probably breaking the news to poor Dominic right now.
00:02:40Father, we thank you both for agreeing to come with us from the airport.
00:02:45Yeah, of course.
00:02:47I texted both Adam and Victoria and they'll be here shortly.
00:02:50You know, maybe it's too soon.
00:02:53Maybe we should have waited until we unpacked and settled in before calling everybody together.
00:02:58No, we can't do that.
00:03:01You really think the threat Kane poses to Chancellor and Newman is that imminent?
00:03:06Yeah.
00:03:07I agree.
00:03:08We need to be prepared for whatever Kane's next move is.
00:03:12You know, most importantly, we need to be here for Victoria and Claire because they suffered a terrible loss.
00:03:20They can't even imagine.
00:03:25They now need their family more than anything.
00:03:27Your grandfather just has a family's arriving from the airport.
00:03:37He wants everyone to meet at the main house.
00:03:39I'm so relieved that they're back, Sam.
00:03:40I know me too.
00:03:41I'm so anxious to see everyone.
00:03:43Shall we?
00:03:44We can't.
00:03:46What?
00:03:47Why?
00:03:47I have to go see Kyle first.
00:03:55Oh, I can't believe we're finally home.
00:03:59Now, we're starting to wonder if we'd ever make it back here.
00:04:01The only thing that's missing is the sound of Harrison's little feet running down the stairs to greet us.
00:04:06I was hurt when he told me he was having so much fun in Milan with Summer, he didn't even notice we hadn't talked in a while.
00:04:13But you did say he's coming back for school, right?
00:04:16Yes, sir.
00:04:17The peace and quiet will be broken very soon.
00:04:20Are you saying be careful what I wish for?
00:04:22I am saying you may be misremembering the sound of his little feet.
00:04:26I don't think so.
00:04:28Jack, I do hate that our long-awaited, much-anticipated honeymoon was derailed.
00:04:35We will reschedule, I promise.
00:04:37Yes, and I still can't make sense of why Kane invited us there to begin with.
00:04:41It's never made clear.
00:04:43No, it was not.
00:04:44Despite everything that we all went through, Kane has never truly revealed his hand, which means none of us should get too comfortable.
00:04:53Look, I know that you're anxious to see Kyle, but don't you think we should check in with our family first?
00:05:06I'm not avoiding them.
00:05:08I promise I'll see them later today.
00:05:10What difference does a few hours make?
00:05:12Well, I hate to tell you this, but your grandfather's not going to be happy that when you went to see Kyle first, do you really think that's his priority right now?
00:05:19You know him. You know he always prioritizes family over everything.
00:05:24Sorry, Mom, but I can't worry about that right now. We've just suffered a devastating loss.
00:05:30And it's at times like these when he feels that we need each other the most.
00:05:34What about what I need?
00:05:36He's trying to bring us together for comfort and support.
00:05:41But if he cared so much about family, he would respect my feelings.
00:05:44And what I need right now is to see Kyle.
00:05:47I'm sorry, but he's not going to see it that way.
00:05:49Then don't tell him.
00:05:51Lie. Tell him that I'm not feeling well.
00:05:52I'm not going to do that.
00:05:54Tell him whatever you want. I don't care.
00:05:55But I'm not going to change my mind.
00:06:08I have had enough of talking about Cain and what he's going to do next.
00:06:14Can we please have 24 hours free from talking about Cain and the trip from hell?
00:06:20I second that, but it won't be easy.
00:06:22I think we're all still shaken up about what happened in Nice.
00:06:26Every time I think of it.
00:06:28My heart just breaks for Chance and Damien's families.
00:06:31I can't imagine them hearing the news.
00:06:33Tracy is with Damien's mother now.
00:06:36Amy is just devastated.
00:06:38Can't believe she lost her son this way after having just found him.
00:06:42So senseless.
00:06:44And violent.
00:06:45Sudden.
00:06:46Yeah.
00:06:50Well, we haven't done a good job of not talking about the trip from hell.
00:06:54No, let's try again.
00:06:56Hey, how about we go get something to eat?
00:06:59Anything but French.
00:07:01What about Society's breakfast burrito?
00:07:04Ooh, that sounds perfect.
00:07:06I will have to bow out.
00:07:07The first thing I want to do is see Claire.
00:07:10I hate that I wasn't here for her.
00:07:12Of course.
00:07:13Please give her our condolences.
00:07:15I will.
00:07:16Bye.
00:07:18Bye.
00:07:19I hope that goes okay.
00:07:27Why wouldn't it?
00:07:28They haven't talked or seen each other and they'll be thrown to be together.
00:07:33Well, what about when Claire finds out about what happened between Kyle and Audra and Nice and that Victor was behind it?
00:07:41I think that'll put a damper on their reunion.
00:07:45So what do you mean going to Nice was a huge mistake?
00:07:50After what happened?
00:07:52I'm sure everyone who took part in that disaster of a trip regrets going.
00:07:57Well, I regret not going.
00:07:58Being so cut off not knowing what you and Damien were doing makes me sick.
00:08:04I was just here going about my day working when I could have been there with you, with Damien and his last days.
00:08:13No one enjoyed themselves.
00:08:15We were all cut off from the world and we couldn't leave.
00:08:19And two good men paid the ultimate prize.
00:08:25Can't believe my brother's gone.
00:08:26We were just starting to connect.
00:08:31Build a real relationship.
00:08:34I wish we all stayed home.
00:08:38Damien would still be alive.
00:08:40Amy would still have her son and a reason to keep fighting for her own life.
00:08:45Maybe if I had gone, I could have...
00:08:48Hey, don't torture yourself.
00:08:51No one could have stopped what happened.
00:08:56How's Amy really handling it?
00:08:59Not well.
00:09:04She, um...
00:09:06She tried to be strong on the phone with me.
00:09:09But I could tell it was a struggle.
00:09:12How could it not be?
00:09:14She seems to have shut down.
00:09:15When I broke the news, my God, it was the hardest thing I've ever done.
00:09:24She denied it, said it was alive and the tears and the fury.
00:09:30Now she's just quiet and withdrawn.
00:09:34I am so worried about her.
00:09:38I am too.
00:09:40She went into her treatment with such a positive outlook.
00:09:44On a mission to reconnect with her son.
00:09:47She was so hopeful and...
00:09:50Now that purpose is gone.
00:09:51She was so worried that her son was going to have to bury her.
00:09:59She never thought in a million years she would have to bury him.
00:10:06Damien's body's been flown back to Chicago.
00:10:10She wants to bury him next to Jackson.
00:10:11And we're headed there this afternoon to make the arrangements.
00:10:17I just hope she's strong enough for all of that.
00:10:21I'll take good care of her.
00:10:23I just wish you could come with us, but I know...
00:10:27You lost a lot of time being stuck in France.
00:10:30I'm sure you have a lot to catch up on with Bronte.
00:10:36Yes, darling.
00:10:37We all agree that Victoria and Clara need our support right now.
00:10:41But maybe we should have at least dropped Nicholas and Sharon off at their home
00:10:46so they could spend time with their children.
00:10:48I know they were greatly missed.
00:10:50I appreciate that, Nikki, but I have been in constant touch with my daughters
00:10:56the moment we got cell service and niece.
00:10:59And we have already made plans to meet later.
00:11:02Yeah, and as much as I want to see Christian, he's at basketball camp right now.
00:11:05There's no reason to rush home.
00:11:07Oh, he is?
00:11:08Yeah.
00:11:08That's nice.
00:11:09So, Dad is right.
00:11:10We need to be unified and prepared for whatever Cain throws at us next.
00:11:15But the thing I want the most is just to see my sister.
00:11:18We weren't here for her when she needed us.
00:11:21Oh, who's that?
00:11:22Well, I'm just happy that you're here now.
00:11:24Oh, darling.
00:11:26Hi.
00:11:27Hi, Sharon.
00:11:28Mom.
00:11:30So good to see you.
00:11:31Oh, Dad.
00:11:34Hi.
00:11:34I can't even think about work right now.
00:11:46You and Amy are my priority.
00:11:49What can I do?
00:11:50How can I help?
00:11:51Just having you back, seeing you and holding you means so much.
00:11:56And I can do that.
00:11:59But there must be some other way to support you.
00:12:03With Damien's arrangements?
00:12:04I've got that taken care of.
00:12:06Already?
00:12:07Yeah, I needed something to do, something to focus on.
00:12:11And that was the one thing Amy couldn't face.
00:12:13I just wish there was something more I could do to help her.
00:12:17I know.
00:12:19I feel the same way.
00:12:23But Amy isn't the only one suffering.
00:12:27You lost a brother.
00:12:31Look, I know how much you were looking forward to really getting to know him.
00:12:36You know, I had a surprise planned for Damien when he got back.
00:12:41You did?
00:12:42I had his new office all at Winters all set up.
00:12:48You know, kind of like a welcome back and go up into the family business.
00:12:53I even lined up a perfect project for him to spearhead.
00:12:58And I almost bought those bear season tickets we talked about.
00:13:04Almost?
00:13:05I decided to wait until he got back to surprise him.
00:13:09I wanted us both to pick up.
00:13:12There was so much we were looking forward to doing together.
00:13:17Learning about each other and, uh, yeah.
00:13:22Now he's gone.
00:13:23And I guarantee that's not going to sit well with Claire when she finds out.
00:13:28Any more than you pushing the limit with Nikki sat with me.
00:13:33I will never live that down.
00:13:36But I think the situation is completely different.
00:13:39How's that?
00:13:39When Claire compares Victor, Audra, and Kyle, I am quite certain she will know who to believe.
00:13:47And I'd like to think she would understand why Kyle allowed things to progress to the extent that they did.
00:13:53If she finds out.
00:13:55Well, I, I hope so.
00:13:59Why would you doubt that?
00:14:00Because jealousy is insidious.
00:14:03And I'm not entirely sure Claire can just overlook Kyle.
00:14:08I think those two are deeply in love with him, Charlotte.
00:14:11You know what, you know what, maybe, maybe in light of everything that's happened, Victor will decide to let things go and focus on the bigger threat, which is Cain's mysterious agenda.
00:14:22I know, I know, I know, I'm lying to myself.
00:14:28Victor never lets anything go.
00:14:30It is not in his DNA.
00:14:31No, and even worse, when Kyle set a trap for Audra, it didn't just blow up in her face.
00:14:37He rubbed Victor's face in it, too.
00:14:40So I think we're being foolish to think that Victor's just going to admit defeat.
00:14:44Oh, I miss everyone so much.
00:14:53I have never felt so heartbroken and empty in my entire life.
00:14:57I know, darling, we're so sorry we couldn't be here.
00:15:00Mom, I'm just glad that everybody's back safe and sound.
00:15:03I mean, I wouldn't have been able to face losing any of you two.
00:15:07We were shocked when we heard.
00:15:11Cole was a good man, a good father.
00:15:14And I do miss the fact that we didn't say goodbye to him.
00:15:20Thank you, Dad.
00:15:22I hope whoever Cole is that he heard your words right now and know it would have meant everything to him.
00:15:30I'm sure that he did.
00:15:33It came across to him when your father and Cole had their private talks.
00:15:37Don't you think, darling?
00:15:39Yeah.
00:15:39You know, I'd be frank with you.
00:15:43I'd change my mind about him once I realized how much he loved you, how much he loved Claire.
00:15:48We loved him, too.
00:15:51More than I can say.
00:15:53Yeah.
00:15:53And by the way, he was damn good in the publishing division.
00:15:58He did a very good job.
00:15:59Thank you, Dad.
00:16:00Thank you so much.
00:16:02I know he loved the work.
00:16:03Thank you for giving him that opportunity.
00:16:06It really gave him purpose.
00:16:08All right.
00:16:09My turn.
00:16:13Thank you, man.
00:16:14I love you so much, Vic.
00:16:17I'm sorry I wasn't here when you needed me.
00:16:19I wish you were here, too.
00:16:20I could have especially used your shoulder.
00:16:23And by the way, I am not filling in for you at work ever again.
00:16:28So don't even bother asking.
00:16:30Okay.
00:16:30That's fair.
00:16:31All right.
00:16:31You're going to stay right here, right by my side in Genoa City, whether you like it or not.
00:16:36And your days of fighting guards in European countries are over.
00:16:40Yeah.
00:16:40Got it?
00:16:41Yeah.
00:16:42I got it.
00:16:43All right.
00:16:46Sweetie, how is Claire?
00:16:49I mean, this has all hit her pretty hard.
00:16:52She's never lost anyone so close to her.
00:16:54Somebody she was just really getting to know.
00:16:58She's dealing with a lot of emotions right now.
00:17:02I'm very anxious to see her.
00:17:05Oh.
00:17:06Well, she promises that she's going to stop by a little later.
00:17:11Oh, I see.
00:17:11So she went to see Carl Abbott before she came to see her family.
00:17:16All right?
00:17:18Look.
00:17:25Oh, I see.
00:17:27Oh, I see.
00:17:40Oh, I see.
00:17:41Oh, I see.
00:17:41you know we can't get away from her maybe we should just go someplace else we should at least
00:18:00offer nate our condolences i mean we can't just walk out of here without saying something
00:18:04i wonder if he knows what his so-called girlfriend has been up to behind his back

00:22:33donnie why didn't you ask claire to accompany you to see us victoria claire just lost her father
00:22:40it's understandable that she would want to see kyle immediately
00:22:44dad i know you want us all together right now but mom's right it makes sense that she would want
00:22:51to be consoled by her boyfriend i mean she's young she's in love she's following her heart
00:22:57she hasn't seen kyle in weeks but sweetheart we haven't seen her in weeks you know
00:23:02and i think we have how many other closest to her now let's not look this out of proportion
00:23:10you won't
00:23:12here were her priorities live
00:23:16things couldn't possibly get any worse than they were between the inventor
00:23:25is that supposed to come for me
00:23:27um i'm asking about how you interacted well he wasn't thrilled about being stuck in such
00:23:37close proximity with me for so long but he rarely crossed paths so you didn't get a chance to talk
00:23:45about us in all that time victor was mainly focused on kane ashby do you think maybe that means he's
00:23:52softening towards us if he didn't bring it up maybe that means he's beginning to accept i would like
00:23:58to say yes but i'd be lying
00:24:01then i find it hard to believe that he didn't take this opportunity to escalate his attack on you
00:24:10i'm sure you're glad to have kyle back as i'm sure nate is glad to have you back right name
00:24:35absolutely glad you both made it back safe i'm sorry about your brother you have my and my family's
00:24:41deepest sympathies thank you and claire you have mine for your father's loss
00:24:46i know it must have been hard not having kyle here
00:24:49thank you yeah it was
00:24:52i was lucky that nate was here for me and my mom when we got the news about my dad
00:24:57and they were with me when i got worried about damien we all helped each other well i'm glad you
00:25:04both had someone to lean on in our absence
00:25:06oh audra um how's vibrante doing after those setbacks and niece
00:25:13it's still full speed ahead of course those setbacks were just a false alarm
00:25:19you didn't mention any setbacks
00:25:21oh it's not anything you need to worry about especially right now um the crisis has been averted
00:25:29so there was a crisis
00:25:31what kyle is referring to is the promotional campaign that we were
00:25:35planning uh it was obviously cancelled after the dark turn our trip took
00:25:41you know two murders and a suicide aren't exactly marketing incentives for perfume
00:25:47not at all but i'm sure your investor uh was having second thoughts
00:25:54oh your information is wrong my investor and i are just fine
00:25:58huh off the check with my source i was pretty sure the information was solid
00:26:03this is not a good day to push trust me
00:26:08well good luck then
00:26:10let's go
00:26:12what was that about
00:26:22i have to admit the food at the chateau is exquisite but this tastes like home
00:26:30oh i'm just so happy to be back in the real world
00:26:34i will miss the endless champagne though
00:26:36it might be a few years before i order foie gras
00:26:39so how do you feel about getting back to jabot classic
00:26:43i'm sure the pile up of emails phone calls and problems to solve has reached epic proportions
00:26:51i know you're disappointed too after all that working and arranging to have a perfectly seamless
00:26:59worry-free honeymoon and then we didn't have the honeymoon at all
00:27:03so much anticipation and planning
00:27:06well you made the perfect blueprint for when we reschedule
00:27:09and as soon as it makes sense i promise you nothing will stand in our way
00:27:14but maybe it's good that we cut it short
00:27:16i know kyle can handle himself
00:27:18but i think we need to stay closer to home with this whole
00:27:22audra and victor mess
00:27:24you're probably right this conflict between
00:27:26kyle and victor over claire's probably
00:27:30nowhere near an end
00:27:32no because victor never lets anything go
00:27:35well i am holding out hope that
00:27:37whatever threat kane poses to the newmans
00:27:40might distract victor from his myopic focus on
00:27:44claire and our son
00:27:45i doubt it because his evil knows no bounds
00:27:49you know what if i thought it would help
00:27:52claire and kyle i
00:27:54i would join teams with kane to get whatever he wants from newman
00:27:59and if it takes victor down a notch or two
00:28:02so much the better
00:28:03daddy
00:28:06you have to stop doing this
00:28:09you have to let this go
00:28:11especially now
00:28:13cole is gone
00:28:14claire and i are shattered
00:28:16it's it's like the earth dropped off beneath our feet
00:28:20but you continue to go after my daughter
00:28:22and the man that she's given her heart to
00:28:25sweetheart it's not claire i'm going after
00:28:27but it is
00:28:29it is don't you see
00:28:31don't you see that she should be with us
00:28:33at a time like this
00:28:34should be with our family
00:28:35there's no right or wrong way to grieve dad
00:28:38there's no rule for where you should go first or last
00:28:41claire hasn't done anything wrong
00:28:43and i refuse to let you make her feel guilty about the choice that she's made
00:28:47victoria is right
00:28:49now is not the time for this
00:28:53dad i really think you should let it go
00:28:56guys you're all missing the most important point
00:28:59i'm concerned about her trust in kyle abbott of all people
00:29:04you know how i feel about the abbott's
00:29:06whatever your reasoning is
00:29:09please
00:29:10couldn't you just set aside your animosity towards their relationship
00:29:13at least while we prepare to say goodbye to cole
00:29:17i am
00:29:35really jack you would seriously consider working with kane
00:29:57i know it's risky but considering the wild card the new kane has proven himself to be
00:30:02well if it knocks the egotistical mustache off his perch
00:30:08maybe it's worth an alliance
00:30:10interesting so something positive could come out of our trip after all
00:30:14kyle
00:30:15kyle hey
00:30:17join us
00:30:18okay
00:30:20how's claire holding up
00:30:24losing her father has really hit her hard
00:30:28she feels like they got such a little time together
00:30:30she's tough
00:30:32and i'm determined to help her through it
00:30:35did she ask you about victor the dynamic between the two of you at the chateau
00:30:40she asked about victor but i didn't tell her anything about the conspiracy with audra to destroy our relationship
00:30:47and she couldn't
00:30:49it's probably a wise move
00:30:51yeah she's got enough on her plate right now
00:30:53you seem to be troubled by something else though what
00:30:57just thinking
00:30:59it doesn't look like victor has
00:31:02ended his working relationship with audra yet
00:31:06why his scam failed
00:31:08audra failed
00:31:09i would imagine victor would be pulling his funding for vibrante soon
00:31:13okay so what does that mean for me
00:31:15if his goal was to get me to cheat on claire and i refuse does that
00:31:19score me points in victor's eyes
00:31:22i mean
00:31:23maybe
00:31:24this scheme winds up working in my favor
00:31:28maybe he'll finally accept that my love for claire's real
00:31:31wait nate you know kyle
00:31:38he's so competitive and carries a grudge forever
00:31:41and he's always lording his cosmetics company over mine
00:31:46but why
00:31:47this company's been around for decades
00:31:49you're just starting out
00:31:50yeah not to mention he was handed
00:31:54jabot
00:31:54a thriving
00:31:56industry giant by his daddy
00:31:58while i have to build vibrante from the ground up
00:32:01all the more reason for him not to feel concerned about you's competition
00:32:05you know i got the feeling that this was something more than kyle getting in a few digs
00:32:10especially against the company has no reason to fear
00:32:13it's
00:32:14purely ego
00:32:15and
00:32:16anger over how the whole glissade thing blew up
00:32:19is victor really considering pulling his financing
00:32:24i don't even know where he got that information from
00:32:28victor has said no such thing to me
00:32:30i mean he doesn't even care that we scrapped the perfume war idea
00:32:34so i'm proceeding with my plans for vibrante
00:32:37did you run that by victor
00:32:39well i certainly don't want to bother him right now while his family is in mourning
00:32:45besides i'm sure he's more concerned about the threat king ashby poses to newman and chancellor
00:32:51are these problems with vibrante part of why you said going to nice was a huge mistake
00:32:59there are no problems
00:33:02kyle is just being a brat because he can't stand the competition
00:33:05he's pretty cocky like he wasn't worried about the competition
00:33:08he's smug
00:33:10exactly
00:33:11his girlfriend's father just died
00:33:13and after everything that happened at the chateau
00:33:16seems odd
00:33:17like there's a piece missing
00:33:20why are we even talking about kyle anyway
00:33:26we have a lot to make up for
00:33:29just forget about him
00:33:32i certainly have
00:33:46oh darling we're so sorry
00:33:49such a tragic loss
00:33:53we're all back now
00:33:55for whatever you need
00:33:56katie and johnny have been a huge help
00:33:59and um
00:34:00so are adam and chelsea
00:34:02and uh
00:34:04even nate hastings
00:34:05they've all been fantastic
00:34:08faith was a real help too
00:34:10i'm glad to hear that
00:34:12it's nice to hear our family and friends came to the rescue
00:34:16it was clear who insisted that everybody returned from france before we had the memorial
00:34:20i just couldn't imagine going through with what will
00:34:24most likely be the most difficult day of my life without you all here
00:34:28i love you so much
00:34:30anyway we're all here for you now okay
00:34:34we will see you through this
00:34:37where are you going
00:34:50oh i
00:34:52feel like maybe it's not my place to be here anymore
00:34:56i thought i should leave you alone with your family
00:34:59i want you here
00:35:01and my parents obviously do too
00:35:03they invited you
00:35:04yeah and nicky's comment did catch me off guard
00:35:08but what does it mean
00:35:10they must feel like you're still part of the family
00:35:13we
00:35:15have a lot to
00:35:17discuss nick
00:35:18about what
00:35:21about
00:35:23what happened on the trip
00:35:25but right now you should go be with your family
00:35:29but what do we have to discuss
00:35:31are we ever going to talk about
00:35:35that kiss
00:35:37kyle
00:35:43you don't really think that victor's coming around about you and claire
00:35:48yeah given his track record i'm surprised you're ready to give him credit for anything
00:35:52you're probably
00:35:53probably
00:35:54he is a dog
00:35:55with a bone
00:35:56he does not give up anything without a fight
00:35:59a fight
00:36:00to the finish
00:36:00we also ran into nate and audra
00:36:03in the part
00:36:04just seeing her acting so sweet and innocent i wanted so much
00:36:08to tell nate about her attempted seduction
00:36:11bet you didn't
00:36:12no i couldn't do that to him while he was mourning his brother
00:36:15not to mention drop a bomb like that in front of claire
00:36:17she's mourning too
00:36:19i mean
00:36:19they don't deserve any more upset
00:36:21well we ran into nate and audra as well
00:36:25and showed similar restraint
00:36:27i tried to give her a subtle dig to let her know that she wasn't getting away with anything
00:36:31but as usual she deflected like a pro
00:36:34she's acting tough
00:36:36like nothing has gone wrong
00:36:38all bravado while she desperately tries to cover up the truth
00:36:42son you outed her to victor
00:36:44she's going to be out for revenge
00:36:47i mean i guess we could talk about it
00:36:52or we could just wait and see if it happens again
00:36:55come on
00:36:58i said that i wanted to read a poem at dad's service but
00:37:06i'm not sure i'll be able to get through it
00:37:09if you cry it's okay
00:37:12your father would understand
00:37:14tears are an important part of healing
00:37:17saying goodbye is going to be tough claire
00:37:19but you'll have your mother to lean on as well as the rest of us
00:37:22that's right
00:37:24as a family we can get through anything
00:37:28i hate to remind all of you that we are facing some difficult problems
00:37:33and i assure you
00:37:35that if we stick together as a family
00:37:37we shall prevail
00:37:39and i will be able to get through it
00:37:41and i will be able to get through it
00:37:43and i will be able to get through it
00:37:44and i will be able to get through it
00:37:45and i will be able to get through it
00:37:46and i will be able to get through it
00:37:47and i will be able to get through it
00:37:48and i will be able to get through it
00:37:49and i will be able to get through it
00:37:50and i will be able to get through it
00:37:51and i will be able to get through it
00:37:52and i will be able to get through it
00:37:53and i will be able to get through it

00:37:59and i will be able to get through it
00:38:00and i will be able to get through it
00:38:01Sorry, I couldn't meet you at the airport.
00:38:21I missed you.
00:38:24I wanted to be there.
00:38:25I just been spread so thin with Devon and Lily gone.
00:38:29I don't care about that.
00:38:30I mean, I've missed you since I've been gone.
00:38:33It's been so long.
00:38:35All I've wanted is for you to hold me.
00:38:37That's all I want, too.
00:38:42I...
00:38:42I'm so sorry about Damien.
00:38:45I still can't believe what happened.
00:38:49And then I wasn't able to tell you myself.
00:38:52But I'm here now for you and for Amy, whatever you need.
00:38:56It's okay.
00:38:58I know.
00:38:58But it's not okay.
00:39:01Look, I'm still in shock.
00:39:04I wish I'd never gone.
00:39:07Going to Nice was a huge mistake.
00:39:10Money, you're in the Wake Jury holiday.
00:39:16I'm still in the agre�� that was fine.
00:39:22I?
00:39:23Really?
00:39:25Yeah.
00:39:27I have to know.
00:39:28I was still there.
00:39:30I really like that.
00:39:31It went from Back goals.
00:39:32I know I didn't think.
00:39:33But I'm pretty good.
00:39:33I am too.
00:39:34I know I'm not too late.
00:39:35I'm not too late.
00:39:36I know.
00:39:37Oh, it is so good to be back home.
00:39:53And not a maze in sight.
00:39:55No kidding.
00:39:57How are you feeling after that long flight?
00:39:59I'm totally healthy.
00:40:02Well, maybe not totally.
00:40:05I'll be all right.
00:40:07You've been quiet?
00:40:09I can't stop thinking about chance.
00:40:12Oh, so awful.
00:40:14I know the two of you were close.
00:40:17He was special.
00:40:19And he was a good friend to me.
00:40:21So kind and patient during the nightmare with Heather.
00:40:25Summer is gutted.
00:40:27So is Abby.
00:40:29Oh, she's probably breaking the news to poor Dominic right now.
00:40:33By the way, thank you both for agreeing to come with us from the airport.
00:40:39Yeah, of course.
00:40:40I texted both Adam and Victoria and they'll be here shortly.
00:40:44You know, maybe it's too soon.
00:40:46Maybe we should have waited until we unpacked and settled in before calling everybody together.
00:40:52By the way, we can't do that.
00:40:54You really think the threat Kane poses to Chancellor and Newman is that imminent?
00:41:00Yeah.
00:41:01I agree.
00:41:02We need to be prepared for whatever Kane's next move is.
00:41:06You know, most importantly,
00:41:07we need to be here for Victoria and Claire because they suffered
00:41:11a terrible loss.
00:41:16I can't even imagine.
00:41:19They now need their family more than anything.
00:41:26Your grandfather just has a family's arriving from the airport.
00:41:30He wants everyone to meet at the main house.
00:41:32I'm so relieved that they're back, Sam.
00:41:34I know, me too.
00:41:35I'm so anxious to see everyone.
00:41:36Shall we?
00:41:38We can't.
00:41:39What?
00:41:40Why?
00:41:41I have to go see Kyle first.
00:41:48Oh, I can't believe we're finally home.
00:41:52Now, we're starting to wonder if we'd ever make it back here.
00:41:55The only thing that's missing is the sound of Harrison's little feet
00:41:58running down the stairs to greet us.
00:42:00I was hurt when he told me he was having so much fun in Malama's summer
00:42:04he didn't even notice we hadn't talked in a while.
00:42:06But you did say he's coming back for school, right?
00:42:10Yes, sir.
00:42:11The peace and quiet will be broken very soon.
00:42:14Are you saying be careful what I wish for?
00:42:16I am saying you may be misremembering the sound of his little feet.
00:42:20I don't think so.
00:42:21Jack, I do hate that our long-awaited, much-anticipated honeymoon was derailed.
00:42:28We will reschedule, I promise.
00:42:30Yes, and I still can't make sense of why Cain invited us there to begin with.
00:42:35It's never made clear.
00:42:36No, it was not.
00:42:38Despite everything that we all went through, Cain has never truly revealed his hand.
00:42:44Which means none of us should get too comfortable.
00:42:47Look, I know that you're anxious to see Kyle, but don't you think we should check in with
00:42:58our family first?
00:43:00I'm not avoiding them.
00:43:01I promise I'll see them later today.
00:43:03What difference does a few hours make?
00:43:05Well, I hate to tell you this, but your grandfather's not going to be happy that when you went to
00:43:09see Kyle first.
00:43:11Do you really think that's his priority right now?
00:43:12You know him.
00:43:14You know he always prioritizes family over everything.
00:43:17Well, I'm sorry, Mom, but I can't worry about that right now.
00:43:21We've just suffered a devastating loss.
00:43:23And it's at times like these when he feels that we need each other the most.
00:43:28What about what I need?
00:43:31He's trying to bring us together for comfort and support.
00:43:34But if he cared so much about family, he would respect my feelings.
00:43:38And what I need right now is to see Kyle.
00:43:40I'm sorry, but he's not going to see it that way.
00:43:43Then don't tell him.
00:43:44Lie.
00:43:45Tell him that I'm not feeling well.
00:43:46I'm not going to do that.
00:43:47Tell him whatever you want.
00:43:48I don't care.
00:43:50But I'm not going to change my mind.
00:43:52I have had enough of talking about Cain and what he's going to do next.
00:44:07Can we please have 24 hours free from talking about Cain and the trip from hell?
00:44:13I second that.
00:44:15But it won't be easy.
00:44:16I think we're all still shaken up about what happened in Nice.
00:44:19Every time I think of it.
00:44:21My heart just breaks for Chance and Damien's families.
00:44:25I can't imagine them hearing the news.
00:44:27Tracy is with Damien's mother now.
00:44:30Amy is just devastated.
00:44:32Can't believe she lost her son this way after having just found him.
00:44:36So senseless.
00:44:37And violent.
00:44:39Sudden.
00:44:40Yeah.
00:44:40Well, we haven't done a good job of not talking about the trip from hell.
00:44:48No, let's try again.
00:44:50Hey, how about we go get something to eat?
00:44:53Anything but French.
00:44:55What about Society's breakfast burrito?
00:44:58Ooh, that sounds perfect.
00:44:59I will have to bow out.
00:45:01The first thing I want to do is see Claire.
00:45:04I hate that I wasn't here for her.
00:45:05Of course.
00:45:06Please give her our condolences.
00:45:08Yes, I will.
00:45:10Bye.
00:45:12Bye.
00:45:18I hope that goes okay.
00:45:20Why wouldn't it?
00:45:22They haven't talked or seen each other and they'll be thrilled to be together.
00:45:26Well, what about when Claire finds out about what happened between Kyle and Audra and Nice
00:45:32and that Victor was behind it?
00:45:35I think that'll put a damper on their reunion.
00:45:39So what do you mean going to Nice was a huge mistake?
00:45:44After what happened?
00:45:46I'm sure everyone who took part in that disaster of a trip regrets going.
00:45:50Well, I regret not going.
00:45:53Being so cut off not knowing what you and Damien were doing makes me sick.
00:45:57I was just here going about my day working when I couldn't have been there with you, with
00:46:03Damien and his last days.
00:46:06No one enjoyed themselves.
00:46:09We were all cut off from the world and we couldn't leave.
00:46:13And two good men paid the ultimate prize.
00:46:15Can't believe my brother's gone.
00:46:22We were just starting to connect.
00:46:25Build a real relationship.
00:46:26I wish we all stayed home.
00:46:31Damien would still be alive.
00:46:34Amy would still have her son and a reason to keep fighting for her own life.
00:46:39Maybe if I had gone, I could've...
00:46:42Don't torture yourself.
00:46:44No one could've stopped what happened.
00:46:50How's Amy really handling it?
00:46:52Not well.
00:46:59She...
00:46:59She tried to be strong on the phone with me.
00:47:03But I could tell it was a struggle.
00:47:06How could it not be?
00:47:08She seems to have shut down.
00:47:10When I broke the news...
00:47:12My God, it was...
00:47:15The hardest thing I've ever done.
00:47:18She denied it.
00:47:20Said it was alive and...
00:47:22Tears and the fury.
00:47:24Now she's just...
00:47:26Quiet and withdrawn.
00:47:29I am so worried about her.
00:47:32I am too.
00:47:34She went into her treatment with such a positive outlook.
00:47:37On a mission to reconnect with her son.
00:47:41She was so hopeful and...
00:47:43Now that purpose is gone.
00:47:47She was so worried that...
00:47:50Her son was gonna have to bury her.
00:47:52She never thought in a million years...
00:47:55She would have to bury him.
00:47:59Damien's body's been flown back to Chicago.
00:48:03She wants to bury him next to Jackson.
00:48:06We're headed there this afternoon...
00:48:08To make the arrangements.
00:48:11I just hope she's strong enough for all of that.
00:48:14I'll take good care of her.
00:48:16I just wish you could come with us.
00:48:18But I know...
00:48:20You lost a lot of time being stuck in France.
00:48:23I'm sure you have a lot to catch up on with Bronte.
00:48:30Yes, darling.
00:48:31We all agree that Victoria and Claire need our support right now.
00:48:35Oh.
00:48:35But maybe we should have at least dropped Nicholas and Sharon off at their home so they could spend time with their children.
00:48:42I know they were greatly missed.
00:48:44I appreciate that, Nikki, but I have been in constant touch with my daughters the moment we got cell service and niece.
00:48:53And we have already made plans to meet later.
00:48:55Yeah, and as much as I want to see Christian, he's at basketball camp right now, so there's no reason to rush home.
00:49:01Oh, he is?
00:49:01Yeah.
00:49:02That's nice.
00:49:03So, Dad is right.
00:49:04We need to be unified and prepared for whatever Cain throws at us next.
00:49:08But the thing I want the most is just to see my sister.
00:49:12We weren't here for her when she needed us.
00:49:15Oh, who's that?
00:49:16Well, I'm just happy that you're here now.
00:49:18Oh, darling.
00:49:19Hi.
00:49:19Hi.
00:49:20Hi, Sharon.
00:49:21Oh.
00:49:22Mom.
00:49:23Mmm.
00:49:24So good to see you.
00:49:26Dad.
00:49:27Hi.
00:49:37I can't even think about work right now.
00:49:40You and Amy are my priority.
00:49:43What can I do?
00:49:44How can I help?
00:49:45Just having you back, seeing you and holding you means so much.
00:49:51And I can do that.
00:49:53But there must be some other way to support you.
00:49:56With Damien's arrangements?
00:49:58I've got that taken care of.
00:50:00Already?
00:50:01Yeah, I needed something to do, something to focus on.
00:50:04And that was the one thing Amy couldn't face.
00:50:07I just wish there was something more I could do to help her.
00:50:11I know.
00:50:12I feel the same way.
00:50:17But Amy isn't the only one suffering.
00:50:21You lost a brother.
00:50:24Look, I know how much you were looking forward to really getting to know him.
00:50:29You know, I, uh, had a surprise planned for Damien when he got back.
00:50:35You did?
00:50:37I had his new office all at Winters all set up.
00:50:42Kind of like a welcome back and welcome to the family business.
00:50:45I even lined up a perfect project for him to spearhead.
00:50:51And I almost bought those bear season tickets we talked about.
00:50:58Almost?
00:50:59I decided to wait until he got back to surprise him.
00:51:01I wanted us both to, uh, pick out the seats together.
00:51:09There was so much we were looking forward to doing together.
00:51:14Learning about each other and, uh, yeah.
00:51:18We were really looking forward to it.
00:51:22Now he's gone.
00:51:26I know you are worried about Victor's never-ending effort to come between Kyle and Claire.
00:51:31When he's on a mission, there's no letting up.
00:51:35Because he's relentless.
00:51:36But I am not convinced he has succeeded this time.
00:51:41Yes, Audra threw herself at Kyle.
00:51:43She tried to seduce him.
00:51:45Kyle did the right thing.
00:51:46He didn't fall for it.
00:51:47And he exposed their dirty little plot.
00:51:49But Kyle had to take things to the limit to do so.
00:51:53And I guarantee that's not going to sit well with Claire when she finds out.
00:51:58Any more than you pushing the limit with Nikki sat with me.
00:52:02Okay, I will never live that down.
00:52:06But I think the situation is completely different.
00:52:09How's that?
00:52:10When Claire compares Victor, Audra, and Kyle, I am quite certain she will know who to believe.
00:52:17And I'd like to think she would understand why Kyle allowed things to progress to the extent that they did.
00:52:23And if she finds out.
00:52:26Well, I hope so.
00:52:29Why would you doubt that?
00:52:30Because jealousy is insidious.
00:52:33And I'm not entirely sure Claire can just overlook Kyle's near-romantic encounter with a former lover.
00:52:41I think those two are deeply in love with each other.
00:52:45You know what?
00:52:46You know what?
00:52:47Maybe in light of everything that's happened, Victor will decide to let things go and focus on the bigger threat, which is Kane's mysterious agenda.
00:52:55And, uh, I know, I know, I'm lying to myself.
00:53:01Victor never lets anything go.
00:53:03It is not in his DNA.
00:53:04I know, and even worse, when Kyle set a trap for Audra, it didn't just blow up in her face.
00:53:10He rubbed Victor's face in it, too.
00:53:13So I think we're being foolish to think that Victor's just going to admit defeat.
00:53:21Oh.
00:53:22Oh, I miss everyone so much.
00:53:26I have never felt so heartbroken and empty in my entire life.
00:53:30I know, darling.
00:53:31We're so sorry we couldn't be here.
00:53:33Mom, I'm just glad that everybody's back safe and sound.
00:53:36I mean, I wouldn't have been able to face losing any of you two.
00:53:40We were shocked when we heard.
00:53:44Cole was a good man.
00:53:45A good father.
00:53:48And I do miss the fact that we didn't say goodbye to him.
00:53:53Thank you, Dad.
00:53:55I hope whoever Cole is that he heard your words right now and know it would have meant everything to him.
00:54:03I'm sure that he did.
00:54:05It came across to him when your father and Cole had their private talks.
00:54:10Don't you think, darling?
00:54:11Yeah.
00:54:12You know, I'll be frank with you.
00:54:16I changed my mind about him once I realized how much he loved you, how much he loved Claire.
00:54:21We loved him, too.
00:54:24More than I can say.
00:54:26Yeah.
00:54:28And by the way, he was damn good in the publishing division.
00:54:31He did a very good job.
00:54:32Thank you, Dad.
00:54:33Thank you so much.
00:54:35I know he loved the work.
00:54:36Thank you for giving him that opportunity.
00:54:38It really gave him purpose.
00:54:41All right.
00:54:42My turn.
00:54:46Thank you, Dad.
00:54:48I love you so much, Vic.
00:54:50I'm sorry I wasn't here when you needed me.
00:54:52I wish you were here, too.
00:54:53I could have especially used your shoulder.
00:54:55And by the way, I am not filling in for you at work ever again.
00:55:01So don't even bother asking.
00:55:03Okay.
00:55:03That's fair.
00:55:04All right.
00:55:04You're going to stay right here, right by my side in Genoa City, whether you like it or not.
00:55:09And your days of fighting guards in European countries are over.
00:55:13Yeah.
00:55:13Got it?
00:55:14Yeah.
00:55:15I got it.
00:55:16All right.
00:55:19Sweetheart, how is Claire?
00:55:22I mean, this has all hit her pretty hard.
00:55:24She's never lost anyone so close to her.
00:55:28Somebody she was just really getting to know.
00:55:31She's dealing with a lot of emotions right now.
00:55:35I'm very anxious to see her.
00:55:38Oh.
00:55:39Well, she promises that she's going to stop by a little later.
00:55:44Oh, I see.
00:55:44So she went to see Kyle Abbott before she came to see her family.
00:55:50All right.
00:55:54She's going to stop by a little later.
00:55:55She's going to stop by a little later.
00:55:56She's going to stop by a little later.
00:55:57She's going to stop by a little later.
00:55:58She's going to stop by a little later.
00:55:59She's going to stop by a little later.
00:56:00She's going to stop by a little later.
00:56:01She's going to stop by a little later.
00:56:02She's going to stop by a little later.
00:56:03She's going to stop by a little later.
00:56:04She's going to stop by a little later.
00:56:05She's going to stop by a little later.
00:56:06She's going to stop by a little later.
00:56:07She's going to stop by a little later.
00:56:08She's going to stop by a little later.
00:56:09She's going to stop by a little later.
00:56:10She's going to stop by a little later.
00:56:11Oh, you know, we can't get away from her.
00:56:30Maybe we should just go someplace else.
00:56:32We should at least offer Nate our condolences.
00:56:35I mean, we can't just walk out of here without saying something.
00:56:37I wonder if he knows what his so-called girlfriend has been up to behind his back.
00:56:43Well, judging from the way they're looking at each other, I doubt that it's not for us to bring up.
00:56:49The man is in mourning.
00:56:51You're right. And for his sake, I will hold my tongue. I promise.
00:56:58And Nate, we are both so sorry about your brother.
00:57:03Yeah, we got to know him a bit on our trip, and he seemed like such a kind man and had such lovely things to say about his mother and about you and just to lose him that way.
00:57:15Thank you. Thank you. Thank you both.
00:57:16I was just telling Nate what a shocking and bizarre trip that was from beginning to end.
00:57:23Yes. There were so many disturbing surprises.
00:57:26How are you?
00:57:36I wish I could have been here for you.
00:57:38I do, too.
00:57:40It was really hard not being able to talk to you or hear your voice.
00:57:43It was frustrating.
00:57:44Not knowing how you were doing.
00:57:47What your dad was doing.
00:57:49You know I would have been on the next jet home had I known.
00:57:52Yeah.
00:57:53It sounds like you didn't have a choice.
00:57:55You know, even if you had known, you were trapped.
00:57:58There was no way out.
00:58:00The situation was completely out of your hands, right?
00:58:03True.
00:58:04Well, come on.
00:58:06I want to hear everything about what happened.
00:58:07Come on.
00:58:09Um, yeah.
00:58:10I'm not so sure you do.
00:58:12Well, how did so many enemies coexist on the same property for so long?
00:58:16Oh.
00:58:18Um.
00:58:19You know what?
00:58:20There's plenty of time to talk about these.
00:58:22I know I want to talk about you and what I can do to help.
00:58:25Right now, all I want is for you to wrap your arms around me and never let go.
00:58:32God.
00:58:38If I had my reign, I'd hold you like it's forever.
00:58:43This feels so good.
00:58:44You have no idea how much I needed it.
00:58:45But right now, my mind is kind of racing about everything that happened.
00:58:52Yeah, it's, um, it's too horrific how it all ended.
00:58:59You don't want to hear it right now.
00:59:01But I promise I will share it with you later.
00:59:05Right now, I just want to focus on you.
00:59:07I mean, what would help?
00:59:09A drive?
00:59:10A walk?
00:59:11Just to sit here?
00:59:13I'm actually supposed to be at a family gathering at my grandparents.
00:59:17And you chose to see me.
00:59:19I had to take a firm stand on it with my mom.
00:59:21But yes, because seeing you is all that I want right now.
00:59:24It's all that I need.
00:59:25I'm honored to be at the top of the list.
00:59:27And I'm glad that they're back.
00:59:29I miss them and I need them.
00:59:30But I had to see you.
00:59:35Plus, I wanted to be prepared.
00:59:40Prepared for what?
00:59:41Where everything's down with my grandfather.
00:59:43Is there anything that I should know about your interactions while you were in France?
00:59:47Did he confront you about our relationship?
00:59:50There was so much going on.
00:59:52It's the least of our concerns.
00:59:55There's something else, too.
00:59:56Um, a question that you didn't answer before you left.
01:00:00A question's out.
01:00:03What was that proposal that you made him?
01:00:05And did he take you up on it?
01:00:10None of that matters right now.
01:00:13Claire, I wasn't here when you needed me.
01:00:15But I'm here now.
01:00:18So let's just focus on you, okay?
01:00:22What is it, Kyle?
01:00:23Is there something wrong?
01:00:24I mean, did you get in a fight with my grandfather?
01:00:28Please.
01:00:30Don't tell me things are worse now than they were before you left.
01:00:37I'm sure that Claire's going to be here soon.
01:00:41In the meantime, why don't you fill me in about Cain and everything that happened in Nice?
01:00:45Sharon, Faith and Moriah, they must be so relieved to have you home.
01:00:54We were all so worried.
01:00:56I cannot wait to give them both the biggest hitter.
01:01:01But, Victoria, we are all so sorry about Cole.
01:01:06Donnie, why didn't you ask Claire to accompany you to see us?
01:01:09Victor, Claire just lost her father.
01:01:14It's understandable that she would want to see Kyle immediately.
01:01:19Dad, I know you want us all together right now, but Mom's right.
01:01:22It makes sense that she would want to be consoled by her boyfriend.
01:01:25I mean, she's young.
01:01:28She's in love.
01:01:29She's following her heart.
01:01:30She hasn't seen Kyle in weeks.
01:01:33But, sweetheart, we haven't seen her in weeks, you know.
01:01:36And I think we have how many other closeness to her.
01:01:40Now let's not blow this out of proportion.
01:01:44You won't.
01:01:44Here were her priorities live.
01:01:53Things couldn't possibly get any worse than they were between me and Victor.
01:01:59Is that supposed to come for me?
01:02:03I'm asking about how you interacted.
01:02:06Well, he wasn't thrilled about being stuck in such close proximity with me for so long, but we rarely crossed paths.
01:02:17So you didn't get a chance to talk about us in all that time?
01:02:19Victor was mainly focused on Cain Ashby.
01:02:23Do you think maybe that means he's softening towards us?
01:02:27If he didn't bring it up, maybe that means he's beginning to accept us.
01:02:30I would like to say yes, but I'd be lying.
01:02:36Then I find it hard to believe that he didn't take this opportunity to escalate his attack on you.
01:02:58Audra, hi, welcome back.
01:03:01Hi, Claire.
01:03:02I'm sure you're glad to have Kyle back.
01:03:05As I'm sure Nate is glad to have you back.
01:03:08Right, Nate?
01:03:09Absolutely.
01:03:10Glad you both made it back safe.
01:03:11I'm sorry about your brother.
01:03:13You have my and my family's deepest sympathies.
01:03:16And Claire, you have mine.
01:03:18For your father's loss.
01:03:20I know it must have been hard not having Kyle here.
01:03:24Yeah, it was.
01:03:26I was lucky that Nate was here for me and my mom when we got the news about my dad.
01:03:30And they were with me when I got word about Damien.
01:03:34We all helped each other.
01:03:36Well, I'm glad you both had someone to lean on in her absence.
01:03:41Oh, Audra, um, how's Vibrante doing after those setbacks and niece?
01:03:46It's still full speed ahead, of course.
01:03:50Those setbacks were just a false alarm.
01:03:52You didn't mention any setbacks.
01:03:54Oh, it's not anything you need to worry about, especially right now.
01:03:59Um, the crisis has been averted.
01:04:03So there was a crisis.
01:04:03What Kyle is referring to is the promotional campaign that we were planning.
01:04:10Uh, it was obviously canceled after the dark turn our trip took.
01:04:14Yeah, two murders and a suicide aren't exactly marketing incentives for perfume.
01:04:20Not at all.
01:04:22But I'm sure your investor, uh, was having second thoughts.
01:04:28Oh, your information is wrong.
01:04:30My investor and I are just fine.
01:04:32Huh.
01:04:32I'll have to check with my source.
01:04:35I was pretty sure the information was solid.
01:04:38This is not a good day to push.
01:04:40Trust me.
01:04:42Well, good luck then.
01:04:44Let's go.
01:04:54What was that about?
01:04:58I have to admit the food at the Chateau was exquisite,
01:05:02but this tastes like home.
01:05:04Oh, I'm just so happy to be back in the real world.
01:05:07I won't miss the endless champagne, though.
01:05:09It might be a few years before I order foie gras.
01:05:12So, how do you feel about getting back to Chateau, but I'm sure the pileup of emails, phone calls, and problems to solve has reached epic proportions.
01:05:24I know you're disappointed, too, after all that working and arranging to have a perfectly seamless, worry-free honeymoon, and then we didn't have the honeymoon at all.
01:05:36So much anticipation and planning.
01:05:39Well, you made the perfect blueprint for when we reschedule, and as soon as it makes sense, I promise you nothing will stand in our way.
01:05:47But maybe it's good that we cut it short.
01:05:49I know Kyle can handle himself, but I think we need to stay closer to home with this whole Audra and Victor mess.
01:05:57You're probably right. This conflict between Kyle and Victor over Claire is probably nowhere near an end.
01:06:05No, because Victor never lets anything go.
01:06:08Well, I am holding out hopes that whatever threat Cain poses to the Newmans might distract Victor from his myopic focus on Claire and our son.
01:06:18I doubt it, because his evil knows no bounds.
01:06:23You know what? If I thought it would help Claire and Kyle, I would join teams with Cain to get whatever he wants from Newman.
01:06:33And if it takes Victor down a notch or two, so much the better.
01:06:39Daddy, you have to stop doing this.
01:06:42You have to let this go.
01:06:44Especially now.
01:06:46Cole is gone.
01:06:47And Claire and I are shattered.
01:06:49It's like the earth dropped off beneath our feet.
01:06:53But you continue to go after my daughter and the man that she's given her heart to.
01:06:58Sweetheart, it's not Claire I'm going after.
01:07:01But it is. It is. Don't you see?
01:07:04Don't you see that she should be with us at a time like this?
01:07:07Should be with our family?
01:07:08There's no right or wrong way to grieve, Dad.
01:07:11There's no rule for where you should go first or last.
01:07:15Claire hasn't done anything wrong.
01:07:16And I refuse to let you make her feel guilty about the choice that she's made.
01:07:21Victoria is right.
01:07:24Now is not the time for this.
01:07:27Dad, I really think you should let it go.
01:07:29Guys, you're all missing the most important point.
01:07:32I'm concerned about her trust in Kyle Abbott, of all people.
01:07:37You know how I feel about the Abbott's?
01:07:40Whatever your reasoning is, please, couldn't you just set aside your animosity towards their relationship?
01:07:46At least while we prepare to say goodbye to Cole.
01:07:50I know.
01:07:52I know.
01:07:52I know.
01:07:53I know.
01:07:54I know.
01:07:55I know.
01:07:56I know.
01:07:57I know.
01:07:58I know.
01:07:59I know.
01:08:00I know.
01:08:01I know.
01:08:02I know.
01:08:03I need you.
01:08:25Really, Jack?
01:08:27You would seriously consider working with Tain actually?
01:08:30I know it's risky, but considering the wild card the new Cain has proven himself to be,
01:08:37well, if it not's the egotistical mustache off his perch, maybe it's worth an alliance.
01:08:43Interesting. So something positive could come out of our trip after all.
01:08:47Kyle!
01:08:49Kyle? Hey, join us.
01:08:52Okay.
01:08:55How's Claire holding up?
01:08:57Uh, losing her father has really hit her hard. She feels like they've got such a lot of time together.
01:09:04But she's tough, and I'm determined to help her through it.
01:09:08Did she ask you about Victor, the dynamic between the two of you at the Chateau?
01:09:13She asked about Victor, but I didn't tell her anything about the conspiracy with Audra to destroy our relationship.
01:09:21And she couldn't.
01:09:22It's probably a wise move.
01:09:24Yeah, she's got enough on her plate right now.
01:09:27You seem to be troubled by something else, though. What?
01:09:31Just thinking.
01:09:32It doesn't look like Victor has ended his working relationship with Audra yet.
01:09:39Why? His scam failed. Audra failed.
01:09:42I would imagine Victor would be pulling his funding for Rebronte soon.
01:09:47Okay, so what does that mean for me?
01:09:49If his goal was to get me to cheat on Claire and I refuse, does that score me points in Victor's eyes?
01:09:56I mean, maybe this scheme winds up working in my favor.
01:10:02Maybe he'll finally accept that my love for Claire is real.
01:10:04Wait, Nate, you know Kyle, he's so competitive and carries a grudge forever.
01:10:15And he's always lording his cosmetics company over mine.
01:10:19But why? This company's been around for decades. You're just starting out.
01:10:24Yeah, not to mention he was handed Jabot, a thriving industry giant by his daddy.
01:10:31While I have to build Rebronte from the ground up.
01:10:34All the more reason for him not to feel concerned about you's competition.
01:10:39You know, I got the feeling that this was something more than Kyle getting in a few digs.
01:10:43Especially against the company he has no reason to fear.
01:10:47It's purely ego.
01:10:49And anger over how the whole Glissade thing blew up.
01:10:54Is Victor really considering pulling his financing?
01:10:58I don't even know where he got that information from.
01:11:01Victor has said no such thing to me.
01:11:04I mean, he doesn't even care that we scrapped the perfume war idea.
01:11:08So I'm proceeding with my plans for Rebronte.
01:11:11Did you run that by Victor?
01:11:13Well, I certainly don't want to bother him right now while his family is in mourning.
01:11:19Besides, I'm sure he's more concerned about the threats King Ashby poses to Newman and Chancellor.
01:11:24Are these problems with Rebronte part of why you said going to Nice was a huge mistake?
01:11:33There are no problems.
01:11:35Kyle is just being a brat because he can't stand the competition.
01:11:38He's pretty cocky.
01:11:39Like, he wasn't worried about the competition.
01:11:42He's smug.
01:11:43Exactly.
01:11:45His girlfriend's father just died.
01:11:46And after everything that happened at the chateau, it seems odd.
01:11:51Like there's a piece missing.
01:11:56Why are we even talking about Kyle anyway?
01:12:00We have a lot to make up for.
01:12:03Just forget about him.
01:12:05I certainly am.
01:12:20Oh, darling, we're so sorry.
01:12:24Such a tragic loss.
01:12:27We're all back now for whatever you need.
01:12:30Katie and Johnny have been a huge help and, um,
01:12:33so we're Adam and Chelsea and, uh, even Nate Hastings.
01:12:39They've all been fantastic.
01:12:42Faith was a real help, too.
01:12:43I'm glad to hear that.
01:12:46It's nice to hear our family and friends came to the rescue.
01:12:49It was clear who insisted that everybody return from France before we had the memorial.
01:12:53I just couldn't imagine going through with what will
01:12:57most likely be the most difficult day of my life without you all here.
01:13:01I love you so much.
01:13:05Anyway, we're all here for you now, okay?
01:13:08We will see you through this.
01:13:10Where are you going?
01:13:24Oh, I feel like maybe it's not my place to be here anymore.
01:13:29I thought I should leave you alone with your family.
01:13:33I want you here.
01:13:34And my parents obviously do, too.
01:13:36They invited you.
01:13:37Yeah, and Nikki's comment did catch me off guard, but what does it mean?
01:13:44They must feel like you're still part of the family.
01:13:48We have a lot to discuss, Nick.
01:13:53About what?
01:13:55About what happened on the trip.
01:13:58But right now, you should go be with your family.
01:14:03But what do we have to discuss?
01:14:06Are we ever going to talk about that kiss?
01:14:10Kyle, you don't really think that Victor's coming around about you and Claire.
01:14:21Yeah, given his track record, I'm surprised you're ready to give him credit for anything.
01:14:25You're probably.
01:14:26Probably.
01:14:27He is a dog with a bone.
01:14:30He does not give up anything without a fight.
01:14:32A fight to the finish.
01:14:33We also ran into Nate and Audra in the part.
01:14:37Just seeing her acting so sweet and innocent, I wanted so much to tell Nate about her attempted seduction.
01:14:44Bet you didn't.
01:14:46I couldn't do that to him while he was mourning his brother.
01:14:48Not to mention drop a bomb like that in front of Claire.
01:14:50She's mourning, too.
01:14:52I mean, they don't deserve any more upset.
01:14:55Well, we ran into Nate and Audra as well and showed similar restraint.
01:14:59I tried to give her a subtle dig to let her know that she wasn't getting away with anything, but as usual, she deflected like a pro.
01:15:08She's acting tough, like nothing has gone wrong.
01:15:12All bravado while she desperately tries to cover up the truth.
01:15:15Son, you outed her to victor.
01:15:17She's going to be out for revenge.
01:15:23I mean, I guess we could talk about it.
01:15:26Or we could just wait and see if it happens again.
01:15:29Come on.
01:15:35I said that I wanted to read a poem at Dad's service, but I'm not sure I'll be able to get through it.
01:15:43If you cry, it's okay.
01:15:46Your father would understand.
01:15:47Tears are an important part of healing.
01:15:50Saying goodbye is going to be tough, Claire.
01:15:51But you'll have your mother to lean on as well as the rest of us.
01:15:56That's right.
01:15:58As a family, we can get through anything.
01:16:02I hate to remind all of you that we are facing some difficult problems, and I assure you that if we stick together as a family, we shall prevail.
