Kay: How can you be broke?

Jill: I don't want to talk about it, okay? So unless you want a manicure...

Kay: Fine, if that's the only way you will explain to me why you're doing all of this.

Jill: Oh, for God sake. Go ahead, pick a color.

(Sighs)

Kay: Okay.

Jill: Ha! Yeah, "The other woman"-- how appropriate.

Kay: Where shall I sit?

Jill: Oh, no, no, no, no, no. Walk-ins wait their turn.

Gloria: I said, my name is Gloria Fisher. I am Tom Fisher's widow, and I am here to collect the contents of my late husband's safe-deposit box.

Woman: Gloria Fisher is already in the vault...

Gloria: Excuse me?

Woman: Collecting the contents of her late husband's safe-deposit box. (Clears throat)

Gloria: Listen, I don't know what kind of bank you people think you're running here, but I am Gloria Fisher, and if there is another one of me in there, believe me, she's the imposter.

Woman: I need to speak with you.

Amber: (Whispering) Go see. Go see. Go see.

Kevin: Is there a problem?

Mr. Felix: I'm afraid there is. You and your mother need to come with me.

Traci: Oh, here, go ahead.

Steve: (Sighs)

J.T.: Where did, uh, where'd Billy go?

Steve: Oh, uh, Traci asked him to grab some of Colleen's things from her house-- slippers, hand cream.

J.T.: What about Jack?

Steve: He, uh, he's arranging for a couple of specialists to be flown in.

J.T.: (Sighs) It's hard to let go of that last bit of hope.

Steve: Yeah. It's about the only thing that's keeping Traci going right now.

Ashley: I never should have listened to him.

Traci: Listened to who?

Ashley: Victor. I thought he was done trying to destroy Jack, Traci. He convinced me that his priorities had changed. I didn't know.

Traci: (Sighs)

Ashley: Sweetheart... (Sniffles) Colleen, I'm so, so sorry. I wish I'd seen it. I would have stopped him. I swear to you, Sweetie. I would have stopped him. I'm sorry. (Sobs) I need some air.

Traci: Okay, Sweetheart. It's Mama. I think you're gonna have to wake up now. (Chuckles) Please, Colleen? Do it for me. Oh, Sweetie, I need you. So many people need you.

Traci: (Gasps) Did you see that? Her hand moved. Steve, get the doctor! Our baby's waking up. Our girl is coming back to us. Sweetie? Oh!

Nick: Hi. Where were you?

Victoria: At the nurses' station. I wanted to find out what was going on with Colleen, whether they'd taken her off, um...

Victor: Mm.

Victoria: Daddy?

Victor: (Groans)

Victoria: Dad? Daddy? Hey.

Victor: Save... Colleen.

Victoria: Daddy, everything's okay. You're in the hospital, remember?

Nick: You just came out of surgery. You did great in there.

Victoria: Yeah, you did great. Everything's gonna be just fine, Dad.

Nick: I'll let them know he's awake.

(Cell phone rings)

Nick: Hey, Paul. Uh, great news. Dad is conscious.

Paul: That's great.

Nick: Any word on Mom?

Paul: Well, uh, I'm following that lead I told you about. I'm at a retreat in the Rocky Mountains.

Nick: But you haven't found her?

Paul: Well, I'm hoping she's here. Uh, listen, I gotta go. I will keep you posted.

Paul: (Sighs)

Nikki: Paul. Um, h-how did you find me? What are you-- oh, no. What is it? What's wrong?

Daniel: (Whispering) Look, we can't let her see Kevin and Amber. We gotta do something.

Jana: (Whispering) What? No, no, Daniel! Daniel! Daniel!

Daniel: (Clears throat)

Gloria: Daniel! Jana. What are you two doing here?

Jana: (Clears throat)

Mr. Felix: This woman also claims to be Tom Fisher's widow. Will the real Gloria Fisher please stand up?

Kevin: Uh, um, uh, this-- this is Gloria Fisher. She's my grandmother.

Gloria: What?

Amber: Yes. Yes, um, this is-- this is my mother. She must have wandered from the car. Poor thing gets confused sometimes. Isn't that right, Mom?

Gloria: I am not confused, and I'm certainly not old enough to be your grandmother.

Mr. Felix: Look, I don't know what you folks are trying to pull here, but I'm going to call the police.

Kevin and Jana: No!

Amber and Daniel: No!

Gloria: No!

[Adam remembering]

Adam: You need to live. You need-- (Sobs)

Adam: (Sobs) (Sniffles) (Sighs) You have to live.

(Door closes)

Adam: Who's there?

Ashley: It's Ashley.

Adam: (Sighs) Hey, Ash.

Ashley: Victor regained consciousness.

Adam: Have you seen him yet?

Ashley: No, I haven't. Have you?

Adam: Mnh-mnh, not since earlier when we saw him together. And look, I'm, uh, I'm sorry about you having to hear him call for Nikki.

Ashley: It's okay. I don't want to talk about that, okay?

Adam: Okay.

Ashley: I feel like such a fool. I swore to myself I'd never get involved with him again.

Adam: Hey, come here. I'm right here.

Ashley: What kind of a man spends his days doing horrible things to me and my family and then holds me in his arms at night and tells me everything's gonna be okay?

Ashley: I just saw my niece. (Sobs) Colleen had her whole life ahead of her, and now she's never gonna have a chance to live it, all because of Victor.

Adam: I can't excuse what he's done, but I do understand it.

Ashley: You understand him sending that woman to do God knows what to my brother? Come on!

Adam: That man blamed Jack for everything that had to do with that diary.

Ashley: It doesn't give him an excuse to retaliate, Adam. Please.

Adam: He just wanted justice brought against anyone who wronged him. You start to lose control of the situation, and no matter how bad you want to call the whole thing off, you can't.

Ashley: (Sighs)

Adam: It's already in motion. Then you-- you look at yourself in the mirror, and you don't even recognize who you are.

Ashley: Adam, please. (Scoffs) That's who Victor is. That is who he is. He's always been that way. He likes to be a master manipulator. He loves to play God with people's lives.

Adam: (Sighs) So what are you gonna do?

Ashley: (Sniffles) I gotta protect my baby. I'm gonna talk to Victor.

Adam: That man just went through major surgery. Why don't you wait a few days, let him get a little stronger?

Ashley: No. Nope, I don't want to lose my resolve.

(Sniffles)

Victor: (Weakly) How is-- how is Colleen?

Nick: Dad, you need to get some rest.

Victor: Tell me the truth.

Victoria: She's been diagnosed brain-dead.

Victor: (Sighs) I-I never wanted... that.

Victoria: I know you didn't, Daddy. I believe you.

Nick: We both do.

Paul: It's Victor. He's been shot.

Nikki: Oh, my God. Is he alive?

Paul: Yes, he's fine. He made it out of surgery.

Nikki: (Sighs) Who shot him?

Paul: My sister.

Nikki: Patty? What are you ta-- (Stammers) Nobody's heard from her in years. What do you mean?

Paul: Nikki, she is not the Patty we knew. She's got a new face, a-a-a new name, a new persona.

Nikki: I don't understand any of this.

Paul: You remember Mary Jane Benson?

Nikki: (Scoffs) Who could forget that lunati-- are you saying--

Paul: Mary Jane Benson is Patty.

Nikki: How could she be? Uh, to--to pull off something of that magnitude, it--

Paul: She didn't even have to lift a finger. Victor provided for extensive plastic surgery. He made sure that she got a job at Jabot with Jack.

Nikki: That is ridiculous. Victor wouldn't do that.

Paul: He would, and he did.

Nikki: But why?

Paul: He was hoping that Patty would cause Jack as much pain and hurt as possible, as much as she did all those years ago.

Gloria: Whatever is in that box belongs to me.

Daniel: That's up for debate.

Gloria: I'm the real Mrs. Fisher-- therefore, other than Tom, the only one authorized to open it.

Daniel: You know, it's funny, 'cause your husband died years ago. Why the sudden interest?

Gloria: Got a tip from a friend.

Daniel: Mm. Bet that friend's name is Deacon Sharpe, isn't it?

Gloria: How would you know?

Daniel: Let me guess-- he told you that whatever's inside that box is worth millions, and he'll give you a cut of it, right?

Jana: Look, Gloria, this man cannot be trusted. He tried to ruin Daniel's life.

Daniel: Yeah, Amber's life, too. Look, Gloria, if you play along with us, you're gonna get your cut.

Gloria: Mm. Excuse me. (Clears throat) I am so sorry about earlier. I do get confused sometimes.

Kevin: It's all right, Grandma. We know.

Mr. Felix: You've got three seconds to vacate the premises, or I really will call the police.

Kevin: But we haven't finished our business here yet.

Amber: Oh, no. The man is right. We have taken up enough of his time. Come along, son.

Daniel: (Chuckles) Oh, I could kiss you.

Amber: Oh, not in front of mother.

Daniel: (Chuckles)

Amber: (Chuckles)

Dr. Snyder: I-if you'll look here, you'll see there are no sudden spikes, no sign of brain activity.

Traci: What are you saying?

Dr. Snyder: What you saw was an involuntary muscle spasm, nothing more. I'm sorry.

Traci: No, I-I don't care what your printout says. She moved her hand.

Steve: Traci, let's-- please, just--

Traci: No! I'm not talking about brain activity. I'm talking about heart, and I'm talking about soul-- two things my daughter has so much of. Don't you think I would feel it if she was gone? (Sobs) Sweetie, okay, I want you to do it again for me, Honey. I want you to move your hand again. Show the doctor she's wrong. (Sniffles) Please, Sweetheart. I know you're in there. Okay, just squeeze my hand. (Voice breaking) Squeeze my hand. (Sobs)

Nikki: (Sighs) Paul, I-- and all these weeks, I've been indulging myself.

Paul: It's not like you were up here having a party.

Nikki: (Sighs) Yeah, but I caused you so much pain-- calling off the wedding. I really thought that some soul-searching would be in order. Instead, I ended up walking away from the people that care most when they needed me the most.

Paul: Look, there's no way you could have known that Victor was gunned down.

Nikki: Poor Colleen. And the Abbotts must be absolutely devastated.

Paul: And Traci-- I mean, not only is it her child, it's her only child.

Nikki: (Sighs) You know, I have thought about my first conversation with you a hundred different ways, but never like this.

Paul: Look, I tried to respect your privacy, but once the truth about Patty came out, Nicholas, Victoria, Katherine-- they were all so worried about you.

Nikki: (Sighs) After everything else that's happened, I don't know why on earth anybody's worried about me.

Paul: My sister caused so much chaos as Mary Jane Benson. For all we knew, she could have gotten to you, too. I mean, after all, we--we--we didn't-- we didn't hear from you, and we had no idea--

Nikki: Wait a minute. Wh-what about my letters?

Paul: What letters?

Nikki: I sent letters to Victor and the kids telling them where I was and that they shouldn't worry about me.

Paul: Where did you send them?

Nikki: I sent them to the ranch. In fact, I even got delivery confirmation.

Paul: That's odd. No one ever got them.

Nikki: Well, then where did they go?

Adam: I can go with you if you'd like.

Ashley: Oh, that's okay, Honey. I-I, uh, I gotta do this alone. Thanks.

Victor: (Weakly) My beautiful Ashley.

Ashley: Hello.

Victor: Huh. Colleen...

Ashley: There's no hope.

Victor: I know.

Ashley: You do these really terrible things. I know that deep down inside, it hurts you when innocent people get caught in the cross fire, but this time, you've gone too far-- your Goddaughter, your granddaughter, me.

Ashley: How do you-- how do you destroy the lives of the people that you claim to love and then come home to me at night and talk to me about our future with our baby girl? How do you do that? How do you convince me that we could have it all when our marriage was based on lies? Lies after lies after lies.

Victor: Not lies. I love you. I love you.

Ashley: You don't love me. You can't love me, because you don't know the meaning of the word.

Kay: (Scoffs) Talk to me, Jill.

Jill: About?

Kay: Stop playing games. Now why are you doing all this?

Jill: A girl can only watch so much TV and eat so many bonbons.

Kay: (Sighs) Oh, please. Please.

Jill: (Sighs) All right, last year, when the economy was tanking, I moved all my investments to a bank in the Cayman Islands. Long story, it went under.

Kay: Well, everyone knows the worst thing you can do in a recession is to panic. You should have left your money where it was.

Jill: Thank you so much, Katherine, for your timely financial advice. Give me the other hand.

Kay: All right, so you-- you lost your life savings. Why didn't you apply for another corporate job?

Jill: Oh, don't you think I did? I went to Jack. He turned me down flat. Then I went to Victor. He wouldn't hire me. It's not like I have a lot of options.

Kay: Oh, with your résumé, you could have gone anywhere, for heaven sakes. You could have gone to Chicago, New York, uh, Paris, London. You could have gone anywhere.

Jill: I couldn't leave town.

Kay: Well, why not?

Jill: Because that was the time that Nina was making all those accusations against Cane, okay? And that Chance got back from Iraq and Phillip turns up at our door.

Kay: Please, if you didn't want to leave Genoa City, you could have at least started your own business. You could have eventually even competed against Chancellor Industries. You would have been your own-- (Whispering) You would have been your own boss.

Jill: My God, you can't build a company on thin air. You need money, okay?

Kay: (Normal voice) Well, you could have found a cosigner.

Jill: (Sighs)

Kay: Borrowed it. I mean, you could have reinvented yourself a hundred ways, but you didn't. No. You went right back to starting where it all started for us.

Jill: Where what all started for us? (Sighs)

Kay: Our lifelong feud, which ultimately led to so many bad things, but many good things. I mean, what were you thinking? That somehow, you deserved a second chance from the universe out there? You know, w-- were you looking to-- to make another best friend, a rival, a...

Kay: Or were you looking to find another mother? Did you miss me that much?

Jill: (Sighs)

Kay: (Chuckles) I missed you, too.

Jill: (Sighs)

Nick: So what are you plotting now?

Adam: Excuse me?

Nick: Eh, you brought Dad's favorite things from the ranch. You're holding Ashley's hand like the doting stepson.

Adam: You know, if you spent a lot less time worrying about me, your life might not be such a disaster.

Nick: (Chuckles) What's that supposed to mean?

Adam: You bounce back and forth from your wife to your ex like a frickin' yo-yo.

Nick: You better watch your mouth.

Adam: Or what? You're gonna hit a blind man?

Nick: You don't know anything about my relationship with Sharon or Phyllis.

Adam: I do know you've been walking around this hospital like the prince of Newman for the last couple of days, and no matter how hard you try, you will never fill Daddy's shoes.

Nick: You'd still be under house arrest if Dad didn't take pity on you.

Adam: If there's anything I learned at that Godforsaken ranch, all the suffering Victor and I put each other through-- he and I-- we're a lot alike.

Nick: Adam, I can't keep you from here, but you stay away from me. You stay away from my sister, and don't even think about trying to worm your way back into Newman Enterprises.

Adam: (Whispers) Or what?

Nick: Or you will find out exactly how much like our father I can be.

Adam: (Snickers) (Sighs)

Nikki: Without those letters, my taking off must have seemed so selfish.

Paul: Well, you're safe. That's, um, that's really all that matters.

Nikki: Yeah, but when I think what you and the kids and Victor were going through--

Paul: Victor didn't go through anything, except having his-- his plan to destroy Jack blow up in his face.

Nikki: Granted, what he did was... (Sighs) Irresponsible and vindictive. I wouldn't blame you if you never forgave him.

Paul: You're not gonna defend him, I hope.

Nikki: You know as well as I do that everything that happened with Colleen and Summer and Ashley, Victor didn't intend for any of that to happen. I mean--

Paul: Oh, damn it, Nikki. The guy almost killed his own granddaughter! Colleen is brain-dead. And what are you doing? You're tossing it aside like it's just wh-what, one of--one of Victor's "Little personality quirks"?

Nikki: No! I am not saying that at all. I was gonna go into how stubborn he was, if you really want to know. My God, Paul! If anybody knows how cruel that man can be, it's me. The things he said to me after Sabrina died-- come on. I am just saying that you can't lay all the blame at his feet.

Paul: Well, what? You're talking about Patty?

Nikki: Victor may have been responsible for turning her into Mary Jane, but he didn't force her to hurt Summer or to kidnap Colleen. She's as guilty as he is.

Paul: You don't think I know that? She's my sister.

Nikki: And he's my--

Paul: So I guess that's all I need to know, right?

Nikki: (Sighs)

Paul: So as long as Victor is alive, you're always gonna stand by him.

Victor: (Weakly) I do love you.

Ashley: Those words don't mean anything to me anymore.

Victor: Darling, please--

Ashley: You know, I tried so hard. (Sniffles) I tried--I tried to get past what you did with the Jabot stock, but, uh, you let Patty Williams torture me, and it almost caused me to have a nervous breakdown. I mean, do you understand that you're talking about my sanity?

Victor: I tried to stop her.

Ashley: No. No, you did not. You could have come clean, but you were afraid of what people would say about you. Because of that, I almost lost everything, and Colleen has lost everything. And if you think I'm gonna bring a baby into a home where revenge means more than love or family, then you're the one who's nuts. That's why I did it.

Victor: You did what?

Ashley: (Sobs) Before I found out that you'd been shot, I packed my bags. I was planning on leaving you.

(Door opens)

Traci: Sweetie, look who's come to see you again. It's Victoria. Um, thank you for coming. I-I know that you and Colleen, well, you've had your difficulties over the last couple of years.

Victoria: I wish that I could take it back. I would have handled it all so differently.

Traci: Well, you'll just start fresh when she gets out of here.

Traci: Would you like to sit with her?

Victoria: I-I should go be with my dad.

Traci: Oh. Um, h-how is Victor?

Victoria: He's out of the anesthesia, and the doctors are very optimistic.

Traci: Good.

Traci: J.T., it's okay. You can go be with your wife.

J.T.: (Whispers) Bye, Sweetheart.

J.T.: (Sighs)

Traci: Are you coming back?

J.T.: Of course.

Traci: 'Cause I think hearing your voice will help our girl come back to us.

Paul: I've spent years listening to you make excuses for Victor. I don't know why I thought this was gonna be any different. No matter what the guy does, you stand behind him. I've had it, okay?

Nikki: I'm so sorry.

Paul: Don't apologize. Please. Just do me a favor. The next time the guy rips your heart out, don't come crying to me. (Sighs) I'm sorry. I didn't mean that. I'm just--I don't know.

Nikki: I know you are. You're--you're--you're confused and-- and angry and can't understand why on earth you agreed to even come look for me.

Paul: And I would do it all over again, because no matter what new atrocities Victor might do, I know you love him, and I know you'd want to be with him.

Nikki: God, after everything that I've done to you--

Paul: Stop it. Get your stuff. We'll--we'll catch the next flight.

Nikki: Nope. (Sighs)

Paul: What do you mean, "No"?

Nikki: No, Victor made it very clear before I left that it was over between us.

Paul: And since when has that ever stopped you?

Nikki: It's just not something I'm going to do, Paul, especially not this close to Ashley's due date-- confuse things. It's best that I stay away.

Ashley: I have loved you for so many years, Victor.

Ashley: (Sighs) I see a man that's betrayed me so many times.

Victor: (Sighs)

Ashley: I thought we could have everything. It kills me to know that none of it was ever real.

Victor: (Weakly) I loved you. Listen. Please listen.

Ashley: Why? So you can manipulate me again? So you can tell me what it is I want to hear and then do just the opposite when I walk away? Isn't it enough-- isn't it enough that you've taken my niece from me? Who else do I have to lose, Victor? My brother? Abby? Our baby girl?

Victor: I would never hurt her.

Ashley: Oh, yes, you would! Oh, yes, you would. Maybe not intentionally, but you'd just keep on doing whatever it is you do, and eventually, somebody I love will get hurt again.

Victor: (Moaning)

Ashley: And that's why Abby and I are moving out, Victor, and this baby--

Victor: (Groaning)

(Heart monitor beeping)

Ashley: Victor?

Victor: (Grunts)

Ashley: Oh, my God. Oh, my God. Victor! Help! Somebody, help me! He can't breathe! Help me!

Gloria: You four were whispering all the way back on the plane, and what the heck are we doing here if that painting's still in Detroit? Whatever you're hiding, let's have it.

Gloria: Why, you little sneak. You smuggled it out. Mm. Fantastic. Now we sell it for millions, and we all get rich.

Daniel: (Clears throat) We're, uh, not selling that.

Gloria: I beg your pardon?

Kevin: Daniel wants to give it to Deacon in exchange for Amber's freedom.

Gloria: Her freedom?

Jana: Deacon's been blackmailing her.

Amber: Yes, um, I agreed to marry him, and Daniel stays out of jail.

Gloria: (Sighs) And what's he got on you?

Daniel: It doesn't matter, 'cause he's gonna forget all about it if I give him the Terroni.

Gloria: So what you said at the bank about cutting me in, that was a lie?

Kevin: (Snickers) You told her that?

Daniel: Well, I had to tell her something, or we all probably would have wound up in jail if she didn't back down.

Gloria: You know something? We can talk all day. That painting is mine.

Jana: Wrong. That painting belongs in the Sheffer museum. And, Amber, I love you, and you know I would do anything for you, but we really have to return it.

Gloria: Are you out of your ever-loving mind?

Jana: Well, look, if you're so worried, there's a $25,000 reward, okay?

Gloria: $25,000-- five ways. That ain't keepin' me in Armani.

Jana: (Sighs)

Daniel: Okay, so what do you suggest we do then? 'Cause I'll tell you one thing, there's no way in hell I'm letting Deacon marry Amber.

Jill: There. All done. Now you can run out and tell everybody how low Jill Abbott has fallen.

Kay: Don't do that.

Jill: Do what?

Kay: Don't pretend that we didn't just have a moment.

Jill: Oh, is that what we just had?

Kay: Jill, we were in a good place. Please leave it there.

Jill: (Sighs) Until tomorrow when it all goes to hell again? (Sighs)

Kay: It doesn't have to be, but it takes two.

Kay: (Sighs)

Jill: No, no, no, no. You pay up front.

Kay: Well, anyway, this is, um, here's your tip. Um, perhaps you can apply that towards the $100,000 property tax you owe.

Steve: Honey, why don't you take a break?

Traci: What?

Steve: Why don't you go back to the house for a few hours and get some sleep? I-I'll stay with Colleen.

Traci: Oh, no. No. She might wake up. I have to be here.

Steve: (Sighs) At least come and get a bite to eat at the cafeteria.

Traci: No, I'm not hungry. You go ahead.

Steve: Are you sure?

Traci: Yes. We'll be fine.

Steve: Okay. Call me if you need me.

Traci: Okay. Thank you. (Sniffles) Okay, Sweetheart, when you feel up to it, "Phantom of the Opera" is still at the Majestic. And, well, you know, we're so busy with our hectic lives, it's been ages since we've had some alone time, you know? Some quality time, just us girls. (Voice breaking) I really miss that. Don't you? (Sniffles) (Sniffles) (Sighs)

Dr. Swift: Let's turn up-- I want to turn up the oxygen to 100% concentration.

Ashley: (Whispering) I did this. If Victor dies, it's my fault, Adam.

Victoria: What happened?

Nick: What's wrong with him?

Ashley: I don't know. He just--

Dr. Swift: It appears that your father has developed congestive heart failure.

Nikki: I don't want to make things worse for Victor and Ashley, but I am gonna call home and let the kids know that I'm okay.

Dr. Swift: The ventricle isn't pumping the blood fast enough. It's backing up into his lungs.

Ashley: Oh, God.

Adam: Come on.

Ashley: No, I've gotta stay here with him.

Adam: No, just for a few minutes, until you feel a little bit better. Let's go.

Victoria: Isn't there something else that you can do for him, Doctor?

(Cell phone rings)

Nick: Hello?

Nikki: Nicholas, it's me.

(Heart monitor beeping)

Dr. Swift: He's in v-fib!

Nick: Mom--Mom--Mom, where are you?

Victoria: Daddy!

Nikki: What's happening?

Woman: Charging.

Dr. Swift: Clear!

Victoria: Dad! Dad!

Nick: Dad's heart's failing. We--we could lose him.

Victoria: Dad!

Nick: Mom? Are you there?

Paul: Nikki, what is it? What's wrong?

Nikki: Oh, my God.

Paul: Nikki, what's wrong?

Nikki: I-I have to go home. I have to go to Victor-- oh, God, let it not be too late!

Paul: (Sighs)

Next on "The Young and the Restless"...

Jack: There is no blood flow to the brain.

Traci: (Sobs)

Jack: It's irreversible.

Ashley: Stay away from me. I killed her. I hit her with the car.

Jack: You hit who?

Ashley: I hit Nikki, Jack. I killed her.
