Victor: Son, we need to talk.

Nick: I can't believe you. How dare you show your face here.

Nikki: Nicholas! What is going on between the two of you?

N nick: Mom, I need to talk to dad alone.

 Nikki: Well, I'm not gonna leave you two alone like this.

 Victor: Nicholas and i need to talk. Give us a chance, hmm?

 Nikki: Why can't I hear about it?

 Nick: Because it's personal, and I don't want to drag you into it.

 Nikki: I have a very bad feeling about this.

 Victor: Everything will be all right. Don't worry.

 Nikki: All right, look, just remember this-- whatever's happened, you two are father and son. You love each other.

 Victor: Right.

 Neil: Ahem!

 Dru: Oh, neil, neil, what are you doing here?

 Neil: What the hell is going on here?

 Dru: I thought you had a big presentation.

 Neil: I thought you had meesestraint, dru.

 Wes: Wait a minute, neil.

 Neil: No, no,

you wait a minute, man. This is my apartment.

 Dru: Well, I thought it was our apartment.

 Neil: Doesn't give you the right to come in here with-- this is unbelievable, you know? An hour ago we were having breakfast at that table over there with our daughter as a family. I come back here, slick rick is here doing the freak nasty with-- what is going on?

 Dru: Well, you're kind of killing the moment right now.

 Neil: Of course I'm killing the moment. What were you thinking about, dru?

 Dru: Use your imagination, man.

 Wes: No, look, neil, we got out of hand. We got carried away. It will not happen again, all right? Dru, get your stuff. Let's go.

 Neil: Oh, no, no, no, no. No, drucilla--she's staying right here with me, okay? You can get out of here, man.

 Michael: S,s, chantal? Look, if this is about the snyder deposition, then... here. What are you doing here?! Get in. If anyone saw you...

 Michael: You look like hell.

 Isabella: I haven't been sleeping well.

 Michael: Hmm, lying awake at night worrying about the mysterious miss simmons? Huh?

 Isabella: Oh, her.

 Michael: Huh, so blasé. The last time we spoke about it you were on the verge of a nervous breakdown. Hmm. Ah, I see. You neutralized the threat. That explains your lack ofleep. You're catering to your husband. You still think sex will solve everything.

 Isabella: This amuses you?

>>Icelel: Yes, it does.

 Isabella: Well, try this on for size. Your precious christine and my husband-- they slept together.

 Paul: Hey, you're back.

 Andy: Yeah, I got-- I got back last night.

Paul:L: How was pittsburgh?

 Andy: Pittsburgh--yes, pittsburgh was as beautiful as ever.

 Paul: Right. How about faren and betsy? Did you see them?

 Andy: Ah, yeah, yeah, it was very nice.

 Paul: That's good.

 Andy: What about you? Did I miss anything while I was gone?

 Paul: Only my life crashing and burning.

 Andy: Oh, boy. What happened now?

 Paul: Well, for one thing, my wife moved out.

 Andy: What? Paul, why?

 Paul: 'Cause I told her. I told isabella what happened between me and chris the night of the christening.

 Andy: Man.

 Paul: Whoever said honesty is the best policy-- I sure hope to hell they're right. Because right now my life is a shambles, and I really don't know what to do. (Doorbell rings)

 Lynne: Room service-- warm, frothy lattes.

 Chris: You're a lifesaver. Come on in.

 Lynne: Thanks.

 Lynne: You never called last night.

 Chris: Yeah, I know. I forgot. Had a lot on my mind.

 Lynne: I'm worried about you, chris.

 Chris: Don't be.

 Lynne: You've been really withdrawn and quiet the last few days.

 Chris: I have a lot to think about.

 Lynne: You've had months to think.

 Chris: I'm still no closer to an answer.

 Lynne: About paul?

 Chris: About everything.

 Lynne: I wish I knew what happened between you two the night you left town.

 Chris: Lynne, you don't want to know. Believe me, I don't want to know.

 Lynne: You haven't been sleeping in the bedroom?

 Chris: No.

 Lynne: Is there a reason?

 Chris: Lynne, please don'T.

 Lynne: Can't stop thinking about them, can you?

 Chris: Who?

 Lynne: The two men in your life--paul and michael.

 Chris: No, I can'T. Especially, since, the other day, I ran into both of them.

Wle in at the ranch last night. Your mother told me.

 Nick: Yeah, I was there.

 Victor: So why didn't you go to your house to see sharon and the kids?

 Nick: How do you know I didn't see her?

 Victor: Well, you didn't, did you?

 Nick: I did go out there to see sharon, dad. See, I was gonna try and patch things up between the two of us. See, I got the divorce papers from sharon, and it really bothered me. We got in this big fight at the coffeehouse. 'Cause there was this guy-- I thought sharon was hitting on him. I was wrong.

He wasn't the one she was interested in. (Knock on door)

 Sharon: Nikki.

 Nikki: Glad you're here. I have some things I have to say.

 Sharon: Do we have to do this?

 Nikki: I can certainly understand why you would rather not, bu y yes, we do.

 Sharon: Fine. What do you want?

 Nikki: I'm here to ask you-- actually, I'm here to tell you to let my son go. You're destroying him, sharon. If you have any compassion, if you have any semblance of feeling left for him, you'll have the decency to go through with your divorce and end this farce of a marriage.

 Wes: Let go of her, neil. We are leaving.

 Neil: You are leaving. Dru and I have some unfinished business we need to discuss.

 Dru: You both need to let go of me.

 Neil: What if it wasn't me who came walking through that door just now, drucilla? What if it was our daughter?!

 Dru: It was you, because she's in school.

 Neil: Yeah, but what if she suddenly got sick and she came home and she saw that?

 Dru: Oh, neil, would you quit with the hypotheticals? A nurse would have called me.

 Neil: It doesn't matter. That's not the point. This isn't your love nest. If you and romeo want to knock boots, why don't you go do it somewhere else?

 Wes: You know what, neil? Let's just take it down a notch, buddy.

 Neil: I don't remember the last time that you and i became buddies. And don't tell me what to do.

 Wes: Oh, I see, you want to be the head neil in charge?

 Neil: Yeah, that's right. I am in charge.

 Wes: Well, let me tell you something, big man. The only reason I let you get away with this bizarre living arrangement is for lily's sake.

 Neil: Why don't you finish saying what you got to say and then get out of here?

 Wes: Comen,n, neil, wake up. Can't you see drucilla and i have something special, very, very special. And you'd have to be a fool to think we're gonna put that on hold just for you. Bottom line is if you didn't want it in your face, you should've thought about that before you asked her to move in, buddy.

 Neil: Punk-ass bit-- yeah, it's like that.

 Wes: Come on, man

 Dru: Okay, okay, stop it. Stop it!

 Wes: Keke your hands off me.

 Dru: Neil, stop it! (Glass shatters)

 Dru: Now stop it! Listen! You need to go, wes!

 Wes: I am not leaving you here with him.

 Dru: No, you need to go. You need--

 Neil: You heard-- you heard what she said. Get out of here.

 Wes: No, you--no--

 Neil: You get out of here. Go on.

 Dru: Let's go. Let's go. Let's go. Let's go!

 Neil: Punk!

 Wes: You're desperate, man.

 Dru: Let's go. Let's go.

 Wes: Give me my jacket.

 Neil: You see you're the one leaving, right? You see that?

 Wes: It's over, neil.

 Neil: Come on with it! Bring it!

 Dru: I will call you later.

 Andy: When you say you told isabella...

 Paul: Oh, no, no, not the whole truth. No, I'm not brave enough to do that. I didn't tell her that I practically forced myself on chris.

 Andy: But you admitted having sex with her?

 Paul: Yeah, I couldn't take it anymore, andy, living a lie, knowing what it was doing to my wife.

 Andy: Yeah, she probably knew something was wrong.

 Paul: How could she not? I was impossible to live with. I mean, it's bad enough what I did to chris, but the way it's affecting my marriage and... I just had to say something.

 Andy: Okay, and you did, all right? You took action. And however this thing shakes out, you can at least take some comfort in that.

 Paul: I told myself it was for the bt,t, that isabella had a right to know the truth.

 Andy: What? Talk to me.

 Paul: It's just that is-- seeing the look on her face, you know? The hurt and the betrayal. I don't know. So did I just take the burden off myself and dump it on her?

 Paul: You know the real kicker? I used to blame this whole thing on michael baldwin. But as big a scum as he is, it's really a cop-out. It's whatever's he's done in the past pales in comparison

wt t I've done. I'm really the last person who should throw stones. Last person in the world, andy.

 Andy: Yeah, this thing, it's not gonna go away, not until you face it head-on. Figure out, once and for all, your feelings for christine.

 Lynne: Oh, my god, chris, you ran into both michael and paul.

 Chris: At the coffeehouse.

 Lynne: So then they know.

 Chris: No, I was wearing my disguise.

 Lynne: Oh, they met kelly simmons.

 Chris: Paul was with andy.

 Lynne: What, you went over and talked with them?

 Chris: No, they approached me.

 Lynne: Why?

 Chris: Paul was trying to give his frie's social life a boost.

 Lynne: Oh, my god. Of all the women in genoa city.

 Chris: Tell me about it.

 Lynne: How was it seeing paul?

 Chriswewe hardly spoke. He left andy and me alone.

 Lynne: And what about michael? When did he come into the picture?

 Chris: Not when paul was there, thank god.

 Lynne: But he approached you, too?

 Chris: After andy left.

 Lynne: Why?

 Chris: That's what I keep asking myself.

 Lynne: What did you two talk about?

 Chris: It was strange. At first, I thought he was hitting on me.

 Lynne: Creep.

 Chris: But the more I've thought about it... I'm not so sure it was a come-on. I really don't think he was trying to pick me up.

 Lynne: What else was it, chris?

 Chris: It's almost as if he were after something-- information.

 Michael: What is this, some sort of sick joke?

 Isabella: It's not a joke, michael.

 Michael: Paul and christine?

>>Sasalla:A: Yes. My husband confessed.

 Michael: He's lying.

 Isabella: I wish you were right.

 Michael: When did this tryst supposedly take place?

 Isabella: The night of ricky's christening. Right before your fiancé left town.

 Michael: Oh, my god. Oh, my god. How could she?

 Isabella: You believe me? Damn christine.

 Michael: No, damn paul. Paul's the one who never gets--

 Isabella: No, come on, michael, she's had her sights on my husband ever since she came back to genoa city. So much for her commitment to you. She was using your engagement as a smokescreen--

 Michael: Using me? Using me?! You got it backwards, sweetheart. Paul was the one using you. Pretending to be the devoted husband so he could sniff around christine.

 Isabella: No, you're wrong, okay? You're dead wrong.

 Michael: Oh, yeah. You remember the night of the christening? Late, late that night, I went over to christine's apartment. She wasn't there. Guess who did show up? Paul.

 Isabella: He was sick with guilt and he wanted to tell christine to stay the hell away.

 Michael: Oh, yeah. He was sick with guilt, all right. He felt guilty for taking advantage of christine. Unfortunately, he wasn't able to tell her how sorry he felt about it. 'Cause he'd already driven her away.

 Isabella: No, I'll tell you why christine left town-- beususe she felt ashamed, ashamed for messing with paul's head, threatening our marriage, our family... hell, she might have even felt ashamed for playing you for a fool.

 Michael: Shut up! Shut up!

 Isabella: Where are you going?

 Michael: Take a wild guess.

 Isabella: You can't go see paul.

 Michael: No? Like hell I can'T.

 Isabella: Do you remember the last time you saw paul? He nearly beatpulp.

 Michael: Well, you know, I forgot to be afraid!

 Isabella: Michael, stop! I'I'm begging you. I'm begging you.

 Michael: Let go of me.

Jen, did you wear my black blouse last night?

 Claire: Oh, yes, I had it all planned, dad. I figured my wife was owed an apology, so I got some flowers and gift, and I headed home. And I was excited, you know, because I was gonna reach out to my wife, try anpuput my family back together again.

 Victor: That is what you wanted to do?

 Nick: Yeah. After all that time of you pushing and pushing for me to get back together with my wife.

 Victor: Well, I know that you still love her.

 Nick: You know that, do you?

 Victor: Yeah, I know whatever the problems are between the two of you, I know that you, you know, have a deep love for her, and I know she loves you.

 Nick: You never doubtedhahat?

 Victor: No, never.

 Nick: Okay. Even now?

 Victor: Yeah, even now.

 Nick: Remember all those talks about forgiveness, putting the past behind me, moving on with my life, remember those?

 Victor: Yeah, well, I didn't think you were listening.

 Nick: Oh, yeah, dad, I was listening. Yeah, I was listening. See, I figured it was time, you know? I was gonna swallow my pride, go to my wife and tell her I love her, and I was a fool and I was ready to start over.

 Victor: I'm very glad to hear that.

 Nick: And it felt good. It felt really good.

 Victor: I'm sure it did. Um...

 Nick: No, no, no. Don't you want to hear w this ends? Because you should hear how this all plays out.

 Sharon: Have you discussed your ultimatum with your husband?

 Nikki: I don't believe it was an ultimatum.

 Sharon: You just told me in no uncertain terms, that you expect me to give up your son.

 Nikki: What I said was, "it would be the best thing to do, the kindest thing."

 Sharon: Do you realize that victor has a totally opposite point of view?

 Nikki: That is because he has not spent as much time with nicholas as I have. He doesn't understand what this has done to him.

 Sharon: Oh, I see, so now mommy is the oh-so-wise one.

 Nikki: You are very insolent.

 Sharon: No, you are insolent coming into my home and demanding that I end mmamarriage.

 Nikki: Look, I don't knowwhat happened last night, but I can tell you that my son is a total wreck. He hasn't slept, he is totally drained, and all fingers point to you.

 Sharon: Have you talked to nicholas?

 Nikki: Not enough. I could barely get anything out of him, but I know that he is devastated.

 Sharon: I'm really sorry about that. The last thing I ever wanted was to hurt nick.

 Nikki: Well, you have hurt him, sharon, over and over and over again.

 Sharon: Well, I've been hurt, too, you know!

 Nikki: I understand that. I realize that nicholas is not blameless in what happened. But my question is, when something has gone this far astray, what is the point of ting g to cling to it

 Sharon: You've really thought this through, haven't you? All the reasons my marriage should come to an end.

 Nikki: It's just how I feel, sharon. It would be the best thing for you and nicholas. And as far as the children, yes, they will be hurt, but I don't think that's any worse than living with two parents who are constantly at each other's throats.

 Sharon: Well, thank you, nikki. Thank you for that thoughtful, unbiased analysis.

 Nikki: I am trying very hard not to turn this into something personal.

 Sharon: Oh, bull! It is personal! Be honest, nikki. You never liked me from the get-go. You never thought I was good enough for your son. And now you're more certain than ever that you were right. That's what this is about.

 Dru: What were you thinking about? Being a thug?

 Neil: What am I thinking about? What are you thinking about? What do you expect me to do? I come home, I find you and idiot boy half-naked. He's rubbing you down like some porno movie.

 Dru: Okay, so you go after him like jealous schoolboy.

 Neil: No, I'm not jealous! You know, drucilla, this is all about your irresponsible behavior. Don't try to put it on me.

 Dru: All right, I'm sorry, okay? I was trying to get my needs metokay, I'm sorry.

 Neil: Dru, I thought you were on board. I thought we were building something here like a real family.

 Dru: We are

 Neil: So we're not married. So what? So this is our home. This is lily's home. And for you to be freaking with your boyfriend on the couch is...

 Dru: Excuse me.

 Neil: It violates everything that this apartment stands for. This is lily's refuge.

 Dru: I said I'm sorry, okay? I made a mistake. I got carried away. I get it, okay?

 Neil: But do you get it, dru, really?

 Dru: You know what? I get that you're jealous. You may say that you're not, but I know that you are. 

 Chris: I mean it. Michael was a perfect gentleman. I told him I was new in town, and he offered to show me around.

 Lynne: Straight to his bedroom?

 Chris: It wasn't like that.

 Lnene: What else coulitit be, chris?

 Chris: Maybe he suspects something.

 Lynne: Like what?

 Chris: I don't know. What if isabella told him about kelly's visit? Although, why would she? They're not friends anymore.

 Lynne: No, but they used to be at one time. You know that she said that michael was the father of her baby.

 Chris: Yeah, I know. All the more reason he'd want nothing to do with her.

 Lynne: You'd think, wouldn't you? But I've always had my suspicions about those two. Do you remember when mrs. Williams and I broke into michael's office? Chris: Yeah, but I forget. That's what you two were looking for? A connection between michael and isabella?

 Lynne: I don't trust either one of them, and the fact that they used to be hot and heavy...

 Chris: What are you thinking?

 Lynne: Suppose your visit with isabella rattled her so much that she went running to michael?

 Chris: And he being the thorough attorney that he is, he'd check out my story.

 Lynne: Right. He would have found out that her ex-husband isn't up for parole after all.

 Chris: Yeah, but why would michael do it? Why would isabella even ask him?

 Lynne: Because maybe they're closer than we realize. Just think about it. Michael approaches you, or should I say kelly, out of the blue. He starts asking you questions. If isabella did go to him after you saw her...

 Chris: Then they're both scratching their heads wondering who kelly simmons really is.

 Lynne: Isablala describes her to michael, he spots you in the coffeehouse, he tries to pump you for information. I know isabella has something to hide, and somehow michael is a part of it. Look, we know she lied to paul about her husband being a threat.

 Chris: No, we suspect that. We don't know that.

 Lynne: Chris, why are you defending them?

 Chris: Because he's my fiancé. Where are you going with this? Are you suggesting that he's not the man I think he is? Well, there's only one way to find out.

 Michael: I said let go.

 Isabella: Michael, stop. You have to calm down and not do anything that's going to make the situation worse like confronting paul.

 Michael: Are you afraid I'm going to kill him? Look, I'm the one who gets beaten up.

 Isabella: No, we need to put things in perspective.

 Michael: I've put them in perspective. Your husband seduced my fiancéE. He drove her away, and that's why I'm going to talk to him. You may be able to ratiize that, but not me, so get out of my way!

 Isabella: No, michael, damn it! My marriage still has a chance, and if you go over there half-cocked--

 Michael: Your marriage is on much rougher ground than you could possibly imagine.

 Isabella: What is that supposed to mean?

 Michael: I met the mysterious kelly simmons.

 Isabella: When?

 Michael: The other day she was at crimson lights. She's still snooping abound. Guess who's an acquaintance of hers. Your beloved husband paul.

 Nikki: I just lef victor and nicholas at the coffeehouse.

 Sharon: They're talking now?

 Nikki: Nicholas is furious with his father. I don't know why. Frankly, I was afraid to leave them alone.

 Sharon: Maybe you shouldn't have.

 Nikki: You know what ts is about, don't you? You know why nicholas is so upset with his father.

 Sharon: Nick's anger is misplaced.

 Nikki: Why is he angry?

 Sharon: I just hope victor can get through to him and can reason with him.

 Nikki: Sharon? I'm gonna ask you again. What happened? Just tell me. Answer me!

 Sharon: Nikki, if you really want to know, I think you should ask your husband.

 Nikki: I'm asking you.

 Sharon: It's not my place to tell you. Look, you said that victor is talking to nick right now, so just go home, nikki, wait for your husband. I'm sure he'll tell you whatev he feels you need to know.

 Nikki: You are just the most arrogant little... how dare you take that attitude with me?

 Sharon: I am sick and tired of your garbage. I may be no angel, but your son is no saint, either. I think you have enough problems of your own to worry about right now, nikki, and I think that you would be very smart to stop meddling in mine.

 Nikki: Well, I hope my son has the good sense to walk away from you. You don't deserve a man like nicholas.

 Dru: Neil... come on, neil. Listen. You've been up front with me, you know, about how you feel, and I really respect that.

 Neil: You're still pretty involved with what's-his-name.

 Dru: Wesley. Come on.

 Neil: Yeah, wesley. The sofa casanova.

 Dru: I... would you let that go? I told you I was sorry about that.

 Neil: Drucilla, and I told you that I was very disappointed.

 Dru: Obviously you still are, because of lily, right?

 Neil: What else?

 Dru: Oh, man. Listen, you knew the ground rules going in. I was never gonna stop seeing wes.

 Neil: Drucilla, it's not just that, you know. It's that this morning...

 Dru: What?

 Neil: We sat around that breakfast table. We were a family. You know, I--I could feel it. I know you could feel it, too.

 Dru: I'm listening.

 Neil:Ndnd then after our daughter left for school, I felt something. Can you feel it? It's that old spark.

 Dru: Neil, come on, you can't get me in here, right? And was that the whole thing? You know, making your moves, and then starting to manipulate the situation?

 Neil: Yeah, I was kind ofhopingng--no, I s s really hoping that things would work out for you and me.

 Dru: Neil, listen. You know I care about you. And things have been going good. They've been going really good. But, um, you know... neil, I'm sorry.

 Neil: Well, hmm. The joke's on me, you know? 'Cause here I thought that, um, you know... ah, don't worry about it. I swear, I promise, I'm not gonna bother you again.

 Dru: You want lily and me to move out?

 Neil: No, no, of course N. I still think the three of us living together is the best thing for lily.

 Dru: What about you and me?

 Neil: Hey, we have a beautiful, talented challenging young lady to raise. And I am game if you are. I don't want to be late. I have that presentation to work on. I better go.

 Dru: I'll get it.

 Neil: Thanks. Did you know thatregular-sized pads

 Isabella: This is a nightmare. That fraud of a woman was talking to paul?

 Michael: No, she was actually talking to his sidekick andy. I never saw her talk to paul.

 Isabella: Well, then how...

 Michael: I made my move when the coast was clear, and I approached the little southern belle.

 Isabell a and you talked about paul?

 Michael: It came up in the conversation. It was obvious they'd met.

 Isabella: Who is this woman, and what does she want, michael?

 Michael: I think our first guess was right on the money. She's working for someone and gathering information.

 Isabella: You think? That is all you found out?

 Michael: Yeah, I dug for it. I turned on the charm. I did it all.

 Isabella: Obviously it didn't work.

 Michael: Yeah, she clamped down pretty tight.

 Isabella: Maybe she thought you were on to her.

 Michael: I doubt that.

 Isabella: That's reassuring. (Telephone rings)

 Michael: Baldwin, williams and associates.

 Chris: (Southern accent) well, hey there, mr. Baldwin. This is kelly simmons. We met the oth d day at crimson lights.

 Michael: How are you?

 Chris: I'm fine, though I haven't gotten out as much as I had hoped, and I looked you up

thehe phone book, and I was wondering if your offer still stands. Michael: Oh, to take you around town? Absolutely.

 Chris: Well, good. When?

 Michael: No time like the present, if you don't mind coming over to my office.

 Chris: Let's see, you're on century tower boulevard?

 Michael: Yeah, suite 1500.

 Chris: Well,then I'll see you shortly.

 Isabella: That was her. That was kelly simmons.

 Michael: Sho 'nuff was.

 Isabella: She's coming here?

 Michael: Right agai

 Isabella: And you're not gonna go see paul?

 Michael: First things first.

 Isabella: Michael, promise me you're going to handle this woman very carefully.

 Michael: Nervous, are we?

 Isabella: What do you think?

 Michael: I think this mystery maman is your probm,m, not mine.

 Isabella: Oh, bull. We are in this together, michael. Why else would you want to meet with her?

 Michael: She's very attractive.

 Isabella: More attractive than christine?

 Michael: I'm intrigued by miss simmons. I'm intrigued by what's behind miss simmons' actions. She reached out to me that way. She called me. Obviously, she has something on her mind, and I doubt that my dashing good looks have anything to do with it.

 Bartender: Yes, sir. What can I get you?

 Neil: Um, I'll get a double scotch straight up.

 Bartender: What can I get you, ma'am? Ma'am, do you want a drink?

 Nikki: Um, yeah. Vodka martini, please.

 Nick: I don't think there's any sense in contiinththis charade.

 Nick: Oh, no, no, no, no, no. I want you to get the full story. So I drive out to the ranch, practically singing. I'm that happy. I've got my flowers. I got a gift.A beautiful note to my wife. So I pull up to the ranch, and I go down to my house-- sharon's and my house. As I'm walking up to the door, I happen to catch something out of the corner of my eye. I go back and look, and do you know what I saw?

 Nick: Well, how would you? So I'll tell you. I saw my wife in the living room, but she wasn't alone. She wasn't alone. But you already know that, don't you, you sick bastard. She was kissing you. My wife was kissing my father.
