Billy: No... no... no. Can one of you, please, anybody, come up with a pitch of a story that someone would actually want to read? Now go file that under the "Garbage" file, okay? Circular file. Go.

Chloe: Uh, okay, well, we recycle here, boss.

Billy: Well, look who shows up.

Chloe: Oh, well, look who's in a mood.

Billy: Okay, look, this cover story, the "Mary Sunshine do-gooder" piece-- trash that. We need to come up with something new right now. Come on.

Chloe: (Scoffs) Uh, no.

Billy: Yeah, I'm thinking about, uh, "Baby watch 2010," okay? The new Hollywood obsession. We've got--we've got multiples. We've got adoption, and, hey, we got surrogacy, 'cause that's a sexy topic these days, right? Yeah.

Chloe: Oh, you're really adorable when you're in snark mode. We're not changing the cover or the issue!

Billy: Look, someone-- namely you-- told me that that cover was a bad idea. And guess what? Yay, you were right! You won! Fix it.

Chloe: Okay, well, guess what? "Little Miss Mary Sunshine," who, by the way, is named Rory Gleason...

Billy: (Clears throat)

Chloe: Is on her way right now for a photo shoot for a very feel-good issue that got us a lot of very feel-good ad sales.

Billy: Look, this is my magazine. I want a new cover.

Chloe: No. You want Mac to forget about carrying Cane and Lily's baby so she'll fall back into your arms, which is not going to happen. I'm sorry.

Billy: (Clears throat)

Mac: Did I hear J.T.?

Kay: Oh, he just left, Darling.

Mac: Is everything okay?

Kay: Well, I should be asking you. Do you really insist on going alone to the hospital?

Mac: Cane and Lily are meeting me there, and it's really a routine procedure.

Kay: "Routine." (Chuckles) Uh, Mackenzie, in vitro fertilization may be routine-- I promise you, it can change your life. Given that you're going with no one special, already; everything is changed, isn't it?

Mac: I don't really want to talk about that.

Kay: I have a meeting with Neil. I could--I could push that back and I could drive you.

Mac: I'll be fine.

Lily: Hi.

Cane: Hey.

Mac: Hi.

Lily: We thought that we could take one car.

Cane: You know, since, uh, we're all in this together.

Amber: I almost ran a red light getting here. And then I thought to myself, last thing you need's a ticket, and so I just popped the emergency brake.

Daniel: You can't do that. You could drift and get in an accident.

Amber: I know. I know. I won't do it again. I-I promise. Fine, I-I double, double promise.

Daniel: It's not that.

Amber: What?

Daniel: Your wedding ring. They made--made me take mine off.

Amber: (Sighs) It'll be back on again soon.

Phyllis: Hi. (Sighs) Michael told me you were in here. Now we're getting you out.

Jack: How is it you still have that new-mother glow?

Ashley: What did you do?

Jack: What?

Ashley: You have that "King of the world" quality you get that scares me. What? Tell me. Is it Sharon and Adam? Did you manage to break them up?

Jack: No, my mood has nothing to do with that particular tragedy, though if Sharon comes to her senses and dumps him, I will be cheering the loudest.

Sharon: Nick?

Adam: What the hell? Just let him go.

Sharon: No. Nick?

Adam: Sharon.

Sharon: Nick!

Adam: (Sighs)

Sharon: Nick, wait. Please? Hey! Will you just stop for a minute? (Sighs)

Nick: What would you like me to say to you?

Sharon: Well, you can start with, why did you just walk into my house and into my bedroom?

Nick: You sent me an e-mail.

Sharon: No, I-- I typed you an e-mail, but I-I never sent it. So why did you just barge into my bedroom?

Nick: Okay, so this is my fault? The door was open. The music's on. You didn't answer. Is this how you wanted to let me know that you've moved on? To walk in on you and-- (Groans)

Sharon: No, look, Nick, I told you, I did not send any e-mail, and that--that is besides the point here.

Nick: Right. The point is, you and-- in bed? Are you kidding me, Sharon? Are you insane?

Sharon: Wait, what-- what did you just say to me after where I just spent the last month?

Nick: Okay, you're right. I'm sorry. I did not mean it like that.

Sharon: Okay, you know what? You think that I'm insane when I don't make a decision that you approve of.

Adam: You know, Sharon, you don't have to deal with this.

Sharon: It's gonna come out at some point, anyway.

Nick: Oh, of course it was-- that he's using you? Just like he used Rafe and Heather and the way he sucked up to Ashley. Well, now he's latched on to you, Sharon. Why do you think that is? Because this punk can't get any leverage with me at the office. You are his new way to stick it to me.

Adam: Un-freaking-believable. You know, I was gonna stay out of this, 'cause clearly, you can handle this guy, but are you kidding me? Seriously, Nick? You don't understand how someone else could want Sharon? Which one of us is blind, or are you just an idiot? Maybe it's a little bit of both, but this woman right here is not your wife. Phyllis is your wife, Nick. So you can stop beating your chest now.

Nick: So this is what you want now?

Jack: Face it, you and I are never going to agree on Adam.

Ashley: Well, could you at least give him credit for helping me when I needed it? How about that?

Jack: In other news, Katherine has come to her senses on the Chancellor I.P.O. I'm in.

Ashley: Congratulations. Is that why you called me here?

Jack: I know you don't want to be answerable to anyone but yourself.

Ashley: But that's not gonna stop you from trying to persuade me, right?

Jack: We both buy in. We sit tight, let the dust settle, get a lay of the land, and then we consider consolidating our shares to regain control of Jabot. Our family needs this.

Ashley: Jackie, just call him and tell him you miss him. Billy. You keep saying "Family," but you know where Traci stands, and you know where I stand. The only one left is Billy.

Jack: Billy is no longer my concern.

Ashley: (Sighs) You love him, and you miss him.

Jack: He can't get away with stabbing me in the back anymore.

Neil: Is that true, though?

Kay: They come here for everything.

Jack: Well, hello. There is the woman that's about to change my life.

Neil: Um, Katherine?

Kay: Ah, that's good.

Neil: Maybe we shouldn't be meeting at this place, given the other guests that are here.

Kay: Ahh, well, come on. This will not take long.

Neil: Okay. Here.

Kay: All right. (Sighs)

Neil: Okay.

Kay: Well, I, um, got a message from Tucker McCall.

Neil: Tucker McCall?

Kay: Mm-hmm.

Neil: Impressive. What did he say?

Kay: In...

Neil: S--

Kay: He wants in.

Neil: Son of a gun.

Kay: Exactly.

Neil: (Whispering) This is good news.

Kay: Is it? Come on. Here is a man who is creeping up on Bill Gates as the top U.S. billionaire, and he wants part of Chancellor Industries? Mm.

Neil: (Normal voice) It's flattering.

Kay: (Sighs) But debatable.

Neil: Katherine, he knows what Chancellor is worth. He'd pay top dollar. He could drive the share price right up.

Kay: An artificial increase could hurt us down the road, Neil.

Neil: I don't need to remind you that the man will give us more international cachet.

Kay: (Sighs) Chancellor has been privately held and has done exceedingly well. Now my point is, do we need more global attention than we already have?

Neil: Well, so you're not-- you're not too thrilled with this idea, right?

Kay: Neil, this was supposed to be about family and friends. The idea of limiting their shares for the likes of a stranger? Uh, it just doesn't--

Neil: A very, very, rich, very, very powerful stranger.

Kay: Indeed. Indeed. Rich, powerful--yes. But there's Jack, there's Nicholas, the others. Do I now go back, tell them, "Make room. There's a new mogul on the scene"? I'm not sure I'm willing to do that.

Nick: (Sighs)

Noah: Hi.

Nick: Hey, Bud. Thanks for coming.

Noah: Is this about the money I borrowed? 'Cause I was serious. It's for Christmas presents, not drugs or beer or--

Nick: No... (Laughs) No, no, son. No. No. I just wanted to see you, that's all.

Noah: You already saw me today, which means something is going on. Is this about the plaque you put up for the baby? Did you talk to Mom about it?

Nick: Not yet. You know, maybe it's something else that's on her mind. Maybe it's something that's on your mind.

Noah: How did we get to me?

Nick: You told me you were worried about your mom, and it got me thinking...

Noah: (Sighs)

Nick: Maybe you were trying to tell me something about your mother without breaking her confidence. And if that's the case, Noah, you know you can tell me anything. I won't say a word.

Noah: Everything's fine, really. All right, yeah, sometimes it's like Mom's keeping things from me, but come on. If she can admit that she and Adam are buds, then she can tell me anything.

Nick: (Sighs)

Noah: I got used to him being in Grandpa's house. I can get used to him being at ours. No big deal.

Nick: Sounds reasonable. But what's with me not being able to read you anymore? I think it's 'cause we don't hang enough. And maybe you should move back home with me.

Noah: (Sighs)

Sharon: Oh, I did not want Nick to find out this way. (Sighs heavily) Can you believe him? What, he thinks I'm a lunatic? Why, because I'm making my own choices?

Adam: Well, he gets to you, which is understandable, so maybe...

Sharon: Maybe what?

Adam: Maybe this was a mistake-- you and me.

Sharon: Oh, you want to just walk away now because Nick told you to?

Adam: No, Sharon, of course not. Just-- listen, one of the things that I love about you is your laugh, and you are not laughing now, and if that is my fault-- you just deserve to be happy, okay? That--that's the very least you deserve.

Sharon: Stop, okay? Just--just for now. (Sighs)

Phyllis: Uh, Michael also told me something else. (Sighs) Daniel, he said that, um, Deacon and Ryder, they plead the fifth.

Daniel: You gotta be kidding me.

Amber: Ryder promised Kevin he'd tell the truth.

Daniel: (Sighs)

Phyllis: (Sighs) Yeah, well, Ryder's truth is that he'd rather not incriminate himself.

Amber: Well, isn't that proof right there that Ryder and Deacon are behind this?

Daniel: They got-- they got away with it, yeah.

Phyllis: No, no. No. No. Look at me. They didn't get away with anything. They're gonna get theirs.

Amber: When, huh? When is it gonna be Ryder and Deacon in--in here and not Daniel?

Phyllis: It doesn't-- it doesn't matter. We don't care about them, Amber. It doesn't matter. What matters right now is Daniel. What do you need? What do you want?

Daniel: I don't know. Like--like what? Like food? Or maybe an acquittal? Because I don't know if I'd be able to decide.

Phyllis: Well, I'm not gonna be the chef. So that's good news, right? I'll order takeout.

Daniel: That would make it a tough choice.

Phyllis: Yeah.

Amber: You know, um, I'm just-- I'm gonna let you guys just be in here alone for a little bit. Be back later, okay, baby? (Sighs)

Daniel: I'll be here.

(Knock on door)

Daniel: I want you to look after her, okay? 'Cause I'm not making it out of here.

Billy: Thank you. So all right, fine. Surrogacy isn't the answer. Then we'll just-- we'll repackage the alley shooting, you know? No news. There's no news. There's no news. Who cares? I mean, tabloids, they recycle the same old, same old all the time.

Chloe: Oh, yeah, way to shoot for the stars.

Billy: So I take it you're on board?

Chloe: I got a great idea-- how about we keep the issue as is? And you--you go take a shower, you boozer.

Billy: Oh, come on. You had your chance to imbibe with me last night. Don't get jealous. Just save your sour grapes.

Chloe: Oh, come on. I get it. I get it. The do-gooder issue was to show Mac that you reformed. And then you're gonna go rogue to prove how heartbroken you are. Well, guess what? The whole "Happily ever after," all of that, blah, blah, blah, sometimes, it just doesn't work out that way. Sorry. It's no one's fault.

Billy: Oh, come on. Come on. Come on, twist the knife. I know you love it. Bring it to me.

Chloe: Actually, I don't. I don't, remember? Because I don't love you anymore. So when I see the two of you broken up, it does not warm my heart, but, you know, I-I feel bad for you, like a friend.

Billy: Mm. You know what? I'm doing fine without a girlfriend or a brother. I don't need a-a little friend. I don't need one.

Chloe: (Scoffs)

Rory: Hi, I'm Rory.

Chloe: Hi.

Rory: Hi!

Chloe: You are just in time to do your photo shoot. You look--those boots...

Rory: (Chuckles)

Chloe: I-I love. I love, love, love, love.

Rory: (Chuckles) Thanks.

Billy: I've got a meeting or something. I gotta--yeah, I'm--get--

Chloe: Hey.

Billy: What?

Chloe: Caffeine, no more booze, and take a shower. You smell. Welcome.

Rory: Thanks.

Cane: (Exhales) Okay, so, uh, how long before you know if the, uh, eggs are good?

Mac: They're already fertilized. They're embryos.

Cane: "Embryos" is what I meant to say. The embryos are good.

Lily: You just can't stand this, can you?

Cane: I'm, um, fine. Fine.

Mac: It's my glamorous outfit, isn't it?

Lily: Or is it the stirrups?

Cane: Um, thank you for the reference to stirrups. Thank you.

Lily: (Laughs)

Cane: (Laughs) Thank you.

Lily: I'm sorry. You're just so cute when you're jittery.

Cane: Um, I might, you know, just get some coffee, okay?

Mac: Oh, yes, and an éclair.

Cane: Ooh, ooh, they have éclairs here, too, in the cafeteria? Okay.

Lily: Honey, she's kidding. (Chuckles)

Cane: (Chuckles) Uh, you guys are loving this a little bit too much.

Lily: Listen, "Go get coffee" is code for "Make a break for it." Okay, we know these things.

Mac: Mm-hmm.

Cane: Okay. (Sighs)

Mac: How are the eggs?

Cane: Uh, embryos.

Lily: Yes, exactly.

Cane: Exactly.

Doctor: Good. Ready for implantation.

Mac: Okay, so...

Cane: Okay.

Mac: We can start now.

Cane: Oh, okay, um, I should go.

Lily: Yeah, go. It's okay. Go on. (Chuckles)

Cane: All right, okay. Bye, baby.

Lily: Bye.

Cane: Mwah!

Lily: I'll call you.

Cane: All right.

Mac: (Laughs)

Lily: Oh, my goodness.

(Door closes)

Lily: Ahh. Well, I-I can go, too, if you want.

Mac: No! No, um, please don't.

Lily: Okay. Well, I'm here for you.

Mac: (Sighs)

Sharon: How this looks-- like one word from Nick, and I fall apart.

Adam: Well, look, you two are tied together. You have a kid. Its part of who you are, and--and--and who you are is amazing. It's just that it doesn't matter what I think or what I want. I mean, what happens next, what doesn't happen, that--that's your call.

Sharon: You say that like you mean it.

Adam: Well, how else would I say it?

Sharon: I've just had so many men telling me what to do and what to think, how I should feel. And you don't treat me like I'm a problem to solve or someone who needs rescuing.

Adam: (Chuckles) Uh, no, sorry. I saw the way you looked at Nick when he made that "Crazy" crack. You could take a guy out if pushed too far.

Sharon: (Laughs)

Adam: (Chuckles)

Sharon: Really? Because people don't talk that way about me. You know, Phyllis-- maybe, sure--Lauren. But me?

Adam: No, see, that--that's the thing that makes me crazy. It--it's like they-- they have you conned into thinking that somehow, you need saving when you are-- when you are stronger and tougher and smarter than just about any woman I know.

Sharon: You don't know how hard I have tried to make them see that.

Adam: Eyesight be damned. I see you, Sharon, and you are incredible. If there's somebody out there that can't see the real you, it is their loss.

Noah: (Sighs)

Nick: Thank you. Look, you're gonna be going to college in a couple years. Maybe we could do a split-week thing so I could see you some more.

Noah: What happened to "I should look after Mom. She's probably lonely"? That was you yesterday.

Nick: I know, and you'll still be with her, just not all the time.

Noah: Leave? After everything she's been through with the baby? You know, I'm not a kid anymore, and--and I may not be there as much as I could be with school and Eden, but Mom knows she can count on me. So, no, I'm not moving. And if that bugs you--

Nick: You are totally right.

Noah: (Sighs)

Nick: You're not a kid anymore. But, Noah, you are my kid, all right? So if anything is weird for you or it ticks you off--

Noah: Like what, Dad? Come--come on.

Nick: Just, Son-- just humor me, okay? Can you do that?

Noah: (Sighs)

Nick: You need anything, anything at all, I don't care what it is, you call me, and I'm there.

Noah: (Sighs)

Chloe: You know, you are seriously photogenic for a philanthropist. I'm very impressed, but, you know, uh, the donations, they are going to roll in once the issue is out.

Rory: Yeah, I was worried about after that Victor Newman cover, but "Restless Style" is still classy.

Chloe: Yes, we are classy, classy up the wazoo.

Rory: Mm.

Chloe: Mm-hmm. Oh, uh, so thank you.

Rory: Oh.

Chloe: I'll show you out.

Rory: Okay.

Chloe: Yes, and, uh, take care. I'll see you later.

Rory: Okay.

Chloe: So did it happen?

Amber: Daniel was arrested. I don't know what I'm gonna do without him.

Chloe: Oh, Hon, it's okay.

Daniel: I can't get away from this place. You know, it's like being released the last time was just a tease. It made me think that everything was gonna be okay and back to normal, but it's not. Now I'm right back here where I started. And Deacon and Ryder, they get to walk around free because they plead the fifth. I'm the one that's in here living in a cell and wearing a jumpsuit and watching my back all over again. Maybe it's not-- maybe it's not a nightmare, huh? I mean, maybe this is-- is my life. Walking around out there free, that--that was the dream. I'm wide-awake now, though. I mean, you wanted me to run.

Phyllis: No, no, no. No, that was really stupid. I shouldn't have suggested it.

Daniel: I couldn't do it, not this time. I don't like having you and Amber see me like this, though. I-it makes me sick inside.

Phyllis: Listen, I-I'm not going anywhere, okay? So you can--you can-- you can get upset. You can get angry. You can cry.

Daniel: (Sighs)

Phyllis: Or you could just sit there and do nothing. It doesn't matter.

Daniel: No. No, no. I'm fine. I'm just-- don't listen to me. I'm just tired. It'll just be-- everything will be fine. Everything will be what it is. (Sniffles) (Clears throat) (Sighs)

Phyllis: (Sighs) I know you're tired. I know that. I know how you feel, but you can rest later. And when you do, it's gonna be hard to close your eyes. But I don't want you to do that, because you need your energy, and you need your strength. But listen to me. If you can't close your eyes-- if you can't close your eyes, and all you can do is think, I want you to keep on thinking, I'm not gonna stay here for long. I'm not gonna stay here for long. I want you to keep on thinking that. Do you understand me? That you're not gonna stay here for long? Because there is no way in hell I'm gonna let this be your life.

Cane: Thank you for six very much-needed éclairs. Thank you.

Billy: That's a big surprise.

Cane: (Sighs)

Billy: Already slobbering all over Mac just like you slobbered all over Delia, my entire family. What do these things have in common, Cane?

Cane: You know, I don't know, Billy. But, you see, the only one who thinks it's all about you is you. Now excuse me. I got somewhere I gotta be.

Billy: You know, it's bad enough...

Cane: (Sighs)

Billy: That you slithered your way right back into Lily's life when her defenses were down. What's next? Are you gonna give her a kid so she can't come to her senses and leave your lying ass? Is that it?

Cane: Mackenzie loves you, Billy.

Billy: Yeah, she does, which is why I'm sure you zeroed in on her.

Cane: All right. Mackenzie loves you, and that is why she's acting brave, okay? 'Cause she's scared. And that's why she's making jokes in the exam room. Now in another world, you would understand this, and s-see, it would be you who'd be taking these éclairs...

Billy: (Sighs)

Cane: All right? It would be you who would be holding her hand, but you know what? You can't do that, 'cause to do that, you'd have to stop feeling sorry for yourself, which means that you can't go to work hung-over, which means you can't smell like Jimmy's bar all day. And you know what? The saddest part of all of this, Billy, is that you're a really smart guy, which means you know exactly why you lost her, and it's because of this. It's because of what you're doing right now. It's because of who you are.

Billy: You know, you really are a smug, sanctimonious jerk. After all the lies you've told?

Jack: Hey, hey, hey. Hey, easy. Easy.

Billy: No, no, no. Back off, Jack. Just let me do this.

Cane: All right, Billy, I think you just need to get a grip on yourself, okay?

Billy: Yeah, I'll get a grip. Yeah, I'll get a grip.

Jack: What is wrong with you?

Billy: Just don't act like you care.

Jack: Hey, I came here to see you, didn't I?

Billy: Yeah, but when I came to see you, you turned your back on me. Mac's gone. It's done. And you want to know why? Because she'd rather have Cane's baby.

Jack: Wait, ma--Mac what?

Billy: Yeah, is a surrogate-- as a surrogate for that Aussie chump and Lily. You know, it happens today-- today. The one thing I didn't think he'd be able to take away from me-- he's got it.

Jack: Okay, look, there's still a chance that--

Billy: No, there's not. It's done, okay? So just give me the lecture, you know? That I brought it on myself, blah, blah, blah. Just add it to your lecture that you came to give me.

Jack: That isn't why I called you at the magazine to find you.

Billy: Well, it definitely wasn't to give me a pep talk about my love life. That's what brothers do, and since we're not brothers anymore--

Jack: Okay, look, this isn't a good time to have the conversation I had in mind. You're obviously going through a lot.

Billy: Just give me the lecture. Just give me the lecture, because this pity look in your eye--I can't take it.

Jack: I know things are bad right now. Things can get better if you let them.

Billy: (Groans, sighs)

Jack: The world's an amazing place that way.

Billy: You have gotta be kidding me.

Jack: Billy, don't get so mired in the muck you can't let the good stuff happen.

Billy: Okay, so you just want me to pull myself together for the future, is that it?

Jack: Yes, that's right.

Billy: Well, I have a reality check for you, Jack. The future is just a big, nasty ball of "Probably not." All we have right now is the here and now, and the here and now, it sucks.

Mac: It's time, isn't it?

Lily: So the doctor just went in. I mean, this is it, Dad. I could be a mom 40 weeks from now.

Neil: Sweetheart, I know how much you want this.

Lily: But you don't want me to get my hopes up.

Neil: I was gonna say, I want this for you, too.

Lily: Okay. I'll keep you posted. Bye. (Sighs) (Sighs)

Cane: (Sighs)

Phyllis: I'm sorry. Sometimes moms need more time. May I?

Man: Yeah.

Daniel: It's okay. You can go home.

Phyllis: No. I'm not going anywhere. If I have to be in a cell next to you, I'll do that. I'll put pillows and curtains in there if I have to.

Daniel: Mom. Mom.

Phyllis: Okay, who is the scariest woman you know? Who is a bitch on wheels?

Daniel: (Chuckles) I wouldn't say that... exactly. I--

Phyllis: I would say that. This is what I do. This is what I do. I'm getting you out of here. I don't know how, but I am doing it, and I'm not gonna stop until you're a free man.

Daniel: Look, I know you want that, but when it doesn't happen--

Phyllis: It is gonna happen.

Daniel: You can't fix this. You cannot fix this, okay? And I don't want you putting pressure on yourself, and then feeling let down.

Phyllis: Yes, I-I can fix this. I can. You know, some moms, they fix great Thanksgiving dinner. I don't do that...

Daniel: (Chuckles)

Phyllis: As you know. I fix things. That's what I do-- I fix things. So I want you to say it over and over, Daniel. Please say it. Please promise me. Look--look at me. Promise me you're just gonna keep on saying over and over, that "I'm gonna get out of here. I'm not gonna stay here for long." Because I'm gonna say it, and I'm not--I'm not gonna stop until that happens.

Amber: He's only been gone a little while, but I just can't think of, like, another hour going by without him.

Chloe: I know. I know. I know how it goes. Granted, mine was a jerk who wanted to be with another woman, you know, not a good guy who ended up in jail, but still...

Amber: You don't talk about Billy the way you used to.

Chloe: Well, yeah, 'cause there's no reason for that. Now there's Chance.

Amber: Mm.

Chloe: (Chuckles)

Amber: Did you see that? No, of course you didn't see it, because it's your face. You got this goofy look on your face when you said "Chance."

Chloe: Shut up. (Scoffs)

Amber: No, you did. I'm serious. (Gasps) You like him.

Chloe: (Sighs)

Amber: Like--like, like him a lot.

Chloe: So?

Amber: There you go. You got it again.

Chloe: What?

Amber: Are you really over Billy?

Chloe: Evidently.

Amber: Like, really, really over-over?

Chloe: I mean, does it matter how many "Really, reallys"? I'm with Chance now. And let's be honest, does anyone ever really, really, really get over Billy?

(Elevator door opens)

Neil: Bye.

Ashley: Hello.

Neil: Hello.

Ashley: Hi.

Neil: Hey, good to see you. Well, what happened to Jack?

Ashley: Oh, he had to track down a colleague. He said he'd fill me in later.

Neil: Yeah?

Ashley: Yeah, um, I couldn't help noticing from the way you took that call it seemed pretty important.

Neil: Mm.

Ashley: I'm not a stalker. (Chuckles)

Neil: (Chuckles)

Ashley: I don't mean to intrude.

Neil: No, no, no. No, don't be silly. You're not intruding. Actually, that, um, was Lily.

Ashley: Oh.

Neil: Lily and Cane are-- are trying to have a baby via surrogate today, so--

Ashley: Oh, I'd heard about that. I didn't realize it was so soon.

Neil: Yeah.

Ashley: That's exciting, and probably terrifying, right?

Neil: (Sighs) You know what it is? It's--it's the idea of--of her being disappointed, that's all. I--

Ashley: Mm. Can I tell you something?

Neil: Hmm?

Ashley: You know I had cancer, right? And I also have my very own miracle baby. Neil, nothing's gonna make Lily fight harder.

Neil: The determination on her face, man... (Chuckles) It's, uh, it's a little intimidating.

Ashley: Good for her. Oh, as her daddy, you're gonna worry.

Neil: (Sighs)

Ashley: You know what? If you ever need to talk to anybody--I mean, besides Lily-- I'd be very happy to listen.

Neil: So if I talk to you, it means I'm not hovering over--over Lily?

Ashley: That, too, yes.

Neil: Yeah, right. Sure, I got you.

Ashley: (Chuckles)

Neil: Uh, you--you might just regret that offer...

Ashley: No.

Neil: Because this daddy right here-- no, no, this--this daddy has got a lot to worry about.

Ashley: I think you're handling everything beautifully.

Neil: Yeah?

Ashley: Yeah, definitely. Between this and the Chancellor I.P.O., I mean, you are the epitome of cool.

Jack: Reviewing Chancellors' assets?

Kay: (Chuckles)

Jack: I'm looking forward to adding to the coffers when this stock offer is launched.

Kay: Well, Jack, you do realize you're not the only investor I invited.

Jack: Yeah, but I'm probably the most motivated. I've made no secret of the fact that I want better control of Jabot. The fact that you've invited me means you accept that as, uh, maybe it'll happen.

Kay: You were invited, Jack, because of the John card.

Jack: A card my father would have wanted me to play.

Kay: Well, this all may be a little premature.

Jack: Katherine, has something changed? Uh--

Kay: I'm running out of time. My schedule is absolutely packed, and I'm looking for--for-- ahh. Excuse me.

Ashley: What?

Jack: What? I told you I saw a colleague I wanted to catch up with.

Ashley: And I take it it didn't go as planned.

Jack: Oh, the timing wasn't good. It may never be good.

Ashley: Well, what about your conversation with Katherine? Or are you gonna dodge me on that, too, Jack?

Jack: If I knew something, believe me, I would tell you. I just have a feeling. Something's going on, something I'm not sure I'm gonna like.

Neil: You--you've made a decision, haven't you?

Kay: Mm-hmm. No deal.

Neil: Katherine, why don't-- why don't we just give it a little bit of time? Because Tucker McCall could be a very, very valuable ally.

Kay: Neil. Neil, let me finish. No deal until I meet this Mr. McCall face-to-face, here, Genoa City, on my turf. Now this is supposed to be about friends and family. Let's see if he has the potential to qualify.

Nick: So how is Daniel?

Phyllis: Um... (Voice breaking) If I talk about it, I'm gonna-- I'm gonna break down, so I don't really want to talk about it. (Normal voice) So let's talk about you. What's going on with you?

Nick: Uh, well, it's been an interesting day.

Phyllis: What happened?

Nick: You know, you don't need any more insanity.

Phyllis: Does it have to do with Newman or Chancellor?

Nick: (Sighs)

Phyllis: Or is it something not business-related, or--or is it someone?

Nick: It's just, uh, its garbage that neither one of us should have to deal with. Whatever happens, it happens.

Adam: This is one of those awkward "It would be great if I could see you better" moments.

Sharon: But you can see me a little, right?

Adam: But I can't tell what you're thinking.

Sharon: Well, Nick walking in wasn't the highlight of my day, but I'm fine now... with you.

Adam: Well, here is where I'll be-- whatever you need, whenever you need it. To hell with what anyone else thinks. I'm not going anywhere unless you tell me to.

Daniel: You didn't have to come back here.

Amber: My husband's here. Where else would I be?

Daniel: Sit down.

Daniel: (Sighs)

Amber: (Sighs) (Sighs) I'm so scared.

Daniel: So am I.

Lily: Okay, there we go.

Cane: All right.

Mac: I'm not an invalid.

Lily: Would you just let someone take care of you for once? My goodness.

Cane: Oh, you know that was said with complete and total affection, right? Okay.

Mac: Yeah, complete and total affection would be opening that pastry box you've been carrying around.

Cane: What pastry box?

Mac: That one.

Cane: Oh, you mean this pastry box?

Mac: Mm-hmm.

Lily: Yes, that pastry box.

Cane: What would be the point of doing that? There's nothing in there except, uh...

Mac: Éclairs! (Laughs)

Lily: Ahh! My goodness.

Cane: Éclairs. (Sighs) One implantation, two embryos, and all the éclairs you can eat.

Lily: Mm-hmm.

Mac: You know I was kidding before, right? I shouldn't eat éclairs.

Lily: Okay, how about this? You carry the baby for me, and I'll eat an éclair for you.

Cane: Mm-hmm.

Mac: (Chuckles) Perfect.

Lily: Mmm.

Cane: Wow, we are gonna do this, aren't we? We're gonna have a baby, hmm?

Lily: So... which one is the biggest?

Cane: Um... that one.

Lily: Mmm.

Billy: A gorgeous "Save-the-worlder"-- who needs another one of these?

Woman: M-Mr. Abbott?

Billy: Yep.

Woman: I have information about Victor Newman's daughter.

Billy: Mm, well, I've been to that well already. So thank you, but mnh-mnh.

Woman: You don't know about her grand jury testimony. But you can, for some compensation.

Billy: (Clears throat) Let's talk, shall we?

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

Victoria: There's something that I-I need to tell you.

J.T.: Yeah, same here.

Kevin: Do you have anything to say for yourself before I kick your ass outta here?

Adam: I can make her happy as often as she wants whenever she wants it. (Grunts)
