Nina: So... am I the last to know? Because that's usually my experience. The entire town knows before I do.

Christine: I-it's not like that.

Paul: No, Nina, nothing is going on.

Christine: We were talking about Ricky and Paul got upset.

Nina: I'd like to hear it from Paul, actually.

Christine: No, I want to tell you what happened.

Paul: Chris. Chris.

Christine: [Sighs]

Nina: So, can you please tell me the truth? Are you involved with Christine again?

Adam: Chelsea, Baby? Want to grab some food? Chelsea? Chelsea!

Sharon: [Gasps] Adam!

Nina: I was all excited to see you.

Paul: How did you know where to find me?

Nina: Michael. I called him. I told him I wanted to surprise you. And he told me that you and Cricket were here, and I thought, "Perfect. I'll say hi to my guy and my best friend at the same time."

Paul: I'm sorry you had to see that.

Nina: [Voice breaking] Well, it's not like I haven't seen it before, right? But that was a couple years ago, and you assured me that it was over.

Paul: It was. It is.

Nina: [Scoffs]

Paul: Chris found the video.

Nina: Of Ricky?

Paul: Killing Rachel.

Nina: [Sighs]

Paul: He did it. I watched the whole thing.

Nina: Paul, I'm sorry. I really am.

Paul: I watched my son push a woman under the water and hold her there. I-I watched her thrashing and -- and kicking like an animal, trying to take a breath... while my son smiled. He smiled. Nina, he is my son. I am responsible for him. Chris told me it wasn't my fault. And I-I couldn't hear her. I just...

Nina: So she kissed you? [Sighs]

Paul: Oh, come on. Please. It was one friend helping another, just like I've helped her a hundred times before.

Nina: And like I've helped you.

Paul: Yes.

Nina: Oh, God, Paul. [Sighs] You go ahead. You keep lying to yourself and maybe you'll believe it. And maybe I'll lie to you and tell you I believe you.

Leslie: Do my eyes deceive me? The C.E.O. of Jabot playing hooky?

Neil: [Chuckles] I got to eat sometime, right? You know, I'm actually supposed to be meeting my son Devon here, but I'm sure he won't mind the company if you would... care to join me.

Leslie: I just finished. But I will sit with you while you wait.

Neil: Nice. Appreciate that. So... I've actually been meaning to, uh, call you about that job offer.

Leslie: And the dinner you offered me. I was beginning to think you forgot.

Neil: I got a mind like a steel trap. Nah, I've just been swamped.

Leslie: Mm. I'll be able to help you with that from now on.

Neil: You accepted?

Leslie: You presented a very enticing picture. How could I possibly turn you down?

Neil: Well, this is good news.

Leslie: I do have one question, though.

Neil: Fire away.

Leslie: You left a much bigger and I'm assuming more lucrative position at Chancellor. I can't help wondering why.

[Keys jingle]

[Lock clicks]

Sharon: [Gasps] What -- excuse me? What -- what are you doing here?

Paul: You know, this wasn't deliberate. I didn't set out to start something with Chris.

Nina: Is that supposed to make me feel better?

Paul: I just... I wish I never -- I don't know. [Sighs]

Nina: Never what? Let it get that far with Christine or never got involved with me in the first place?

Paul: My feelings for you haven't changed. I love the time we spend together.

Nina: Just not enough.

Paul: These past couple of weeks there has been one setback after another. And -- and Chris was there. She -- she was doing everything she possibly could to prove my innocence. She -- she supported me.

Nina: [Voice breaking] If I had stayed, would it be different? Right.

Michael: Oh, you found him! Some surprise, huh?

Paul: Yeah.

Nina: [Sighs]

Michael: Nina?

Nina: I'm fine. I just... heard about everything that was going on and, you know... jet lag and emotions and all that. I'll be fine once I lay down.

Paul: Nina, we should finish this.

Nina: I thought we had.

Neil: You know, even though I've made some significant contributions, I still feel as if I could have contributed more.

Leslie: You were really just the "Yes" or "No" man.

Neil: Well, I'm -- yeah, I'm really more of a hands-on kind of guy.

Leslie: Oh, there's nothing wrong with that.

Neil: Wait till, uh, I start making people do things my way.

Leslie: Oh. Is that the vibe at Jabot? Strict and militaristic.

Neil: No! I'm only gonna make you salute me on Mondays and holidays.

Leslie: Ah. You know, you would have been a great officer. All pressed in your dress uniform, not a button out of place.

Neil: What? Wait, wait. Are you saying that I'm uptight?

Leslie: I'm saying you appear to be. Yes. You know, when we were together before, I just -- I got the feeling you wanted nothing more than to let loose. Hmm. I see I'm not the first person who's told you that.

Neil: Oh, come on. You know, it's just, uh... its office gossip. That's all.

Leslie: Yeah, I know office gossip. And from what I hear, you're a bit of a hard-ass.

Neil: That's, uh... [Clears throat] That's not true. You know, because I'm -- I might be tough, but I'm fair.

Leslie: Hope so. I'm leaving a firm full of hard-asses. I'd hate to trade one circle of hell for another.

Neil: I'll tell you what. I will wear jeans every single day and skateboard through the hallways if that'll make you feel better.

Leslie: [Chuckles] I will settle for your sleeves rolled up and a smile. Such a nice smile.

Neil: Leslie... welcome aboard.

Chelsea: This is my property. I don't owe you any explanations.

Sharon: Oh. So you can just walk in on your guests at any time and go through their things? Does Adam know you're here?

Chelsea: What difference does it make?

Sharon: Well, I don't think he would approve.

Chelsea: You really care a lot about him, don't you?

Sharon: He... has been a real friend to me when I needed one. And I'm very grateful.

Chelsea: Is that what you call this, "Gratitude"?

Sharon: What else would it be?

Chelsea: Never mind.

Michael: You want to talk about it?

Paul: Not right now.

Michael: Is Christine around? Because I was hoping to catch you two together. There's been a development in your case. She's gonna want to hear about it.

Paul: No. Later. Look, just, um... tell me what's going on. You made your decision, haven't you? What's that?

Michael: That, my friend, is your "Get out of jail free" card. I'm dropping the charges against you. You won't have to stand trial.

Kay: Uh-huh. Wonderful news. I -- no, I can hardly wait to get back into the swing of things. [Chuckles] You, too, Mitchell. Okay. Bye-bye. Nina! Oh, my God! It's good to have you home. Oh! My baby girl. Ah! Just in time for the holidays. You look marvelous.

Nina: Thank you.

Kay: Okay, what happened? They turned down your script?

Nina: No. No. As a matter of fact, I've got a juicy little bit to add -- a woman returns home from an extended trip to find her boyfriend kissing his ex.

Kay: Oh, Darling, I'm so sorry.

Nina: Nah. Apparently it's my fault for choosing work over Paul.

Kay: I'm sure that Paul would never say that or even think it.

Nina: Then why go back to Christine? Why am I not enough?

Kay: Oh, please! Oh, Darling, stop. I mean, you're more than enough for any man, for heaven sakes. No. All the nonsense that that Paul has been going through -- my God. He can't possibly know what he wants or who he wants.

Nina: If you had seen them together [Scoffs] I'm pretty sure Paul knows exactly who he wants.

Kay: What are you going to do about it?

Nina: Besides knock a couple of heads together?

[Both chuckle]

Kay: Preferably, yes.

Nina: I don't know. Maybe leave.

Kay: What?

Nina: Go back to L.A.

Kay: No, no, Sweetheart. No, no. Don't you do that. Please don't do that.

Devon: I hope I didn't scare Leslie away.

Neil: No, no. She, uh, wanted to give Vance her notice.

Devon: That's good. It's a good move hiring her. I just -- I wish your other ones would be as smart.

Neil: What does that mean?

Devon: It means that you quitting Chancellor might put my grandmother in the hospital.

Adam: Hey, Baby. Where were you?

Chelsea: I went for a walk around the lake.

Adam: Ah. A walk, huh? Just soaking up nature? Freezing-cold temperature in just a sweater?

Chelsea: I didn't notice. Think I'm gonna go to bed.

Adam: You...went to go see Sharon, right?

Chelsea: Okay. Fine. I stopped by there, but it's not like anything happened. She was sleeping.

Adam: And if she were sleeping, how would you know if you didn't go in --

Chelsea: Oh, my God! Adam, I didn't break into a vault, okay? I-I wanted to talk to her, and I didn't think she would answer my knock, so I --

Adam: So, if she were awake, what were you planning on saying?

Chelsea: That it's time for her to leave.

Sharon: [Sighs] [Sighs] Stop. Please stop. [Sighs]

[Pills rattling]

Sharon: [Grunts] [Sighs] It's not working! Nothing is working!

Kay: Oh, Dear. I was so hoping that Joe Jr. and Pearl would be here, but the diner is open on Thanksgiving. So that does that. Devon will be here and, uh... and Jill now that she's back from Australia.

Nina: You might want to cross Paul off that list. I'm sure he and Chris will be in bed, eating turkey legs.

Kay: Do you think there's any chance that maybe you misunderstood things?

Christine: [Speaks indistinctly] Sorry for interrupting.

Nina: Seems to be the order of the day.

Christine: Can we talk?

Paul: You were pretty adamant about going forward with the trial. What changed your mind?

Michael: It took my very wise wife to remind me that the law without justice isn't worth the books it's written in.

Paul: [Chuckles]

Michael: Evidence or no evidence... you shot your son to protect my sister. Putting you on trial for a sacrifice like that... there's nothing just about it. [Chuckles]

Paul: Thank you, man. And thank Lauren for me. Tell her that, uh... I'll do all my Christmas shopping at Fenmore's.

Michael: [Laughs]

Paul: You are a lucky man, Michael. You've got an amazing wife... solid son. I mean, he's a really good kid.

Michael: I don't know. Yeah, maybe basically, but, uh... he's talking back. He's acting smart. He's hanging with the wrong crowd.

Paul: Hey, you spoken with him?

Michael: I've tried.

Paul: Try again. And keep trying till you lose your voice.

Kay: Are you sure I can't have Esther bring you a drink, something?

Christine: I-I'm good.

Nina: She's not staying long. Don't worry about it.

Kay: Now, the two of you, just wait until I leave the room, and then you can start sniping at one another. But promise me one thing. You're going to work things out while you're here. The two of you have been through too much together just to -- to lose a friendship. Stop. Talk.

Christine: She's right.

Nina: Yeah, well... she didn't see you kissing Paul.

Christine: Will you at least let me explain?

Nina: Why? So you can tell me that there's nothing going on? Is that what you're gonna tell Danny? Or have you already dumped him?

Christine: Nina, please.

Nina: Was that the plan from the beginning? Did you come back to Genoa City for Paul?

Christine: You know I would never do that to you. I don't -- I don't even know what that was. I don't even know what happened.

Nina: Well, I'll tell you what. You got plenty of time to figure it out, because it's done between me and Paul.

Christine: So you're basing that decision on one kiss.

Nina: Yeah. One kiss... and feelings between you that I just cannot fight. I've been someone's second choice most of my life. And I'm just -- I'm not gonna do that to myself anymore.

Devon: She says that she can handle it. But honestly I think that she's kidding herself. And you of all people know how stressful that job is.

Neil: It can also be very challenging and invigorating.

Devon: Absolutely, for someone your age, maybe.

Neil: Devon, Katherine is the best decision-maker I've ever met, okay? She won't take any unnecessary risks.

Devon: Yeah, well, you're probably right. That's why you're such a good dad. You always say just the right thing.

Neil: Unlike Tucker? Things have been pretty tense lately?

Devon: It's -- it's whatever. You know, it's never gonna be like it is with you and me. That's for sure. 'Cause, you know, you and I have been through wars.

Neil: You know what makes me a good dad? I'm pretty perceptive, and right now I can tell you're holding back. What's going on?

Adam: You said that you were okay with it, that Sharon could stay as long as she needed to.

Chelsea: Every time I think of her being so close by or I think about everything the two of you have been through, I just... [Sighs] I'm jealous.

Adam: Chelsea, there's no reason to be jealous at all.

Chelsea: I had a mother who put conditions on her love. It was all about what I could do for her, how many marks I could roll, how much cash I could bring in. Everything seemed to have a price, you know? This is -- is too high a price, Adam. I can't live feeling like Sharon's over my shoulder or she's going after you. I can't do it.

Adam: Okay, okay, okay. What -- what would it take for me to convince you that you have nothing to be worried about?

Chelsea: For Sharon to go back to her life. She needs to know that we have done everything that we can do for her. And she needs to hear it from you.

Michael: Well, I got to file this with the courthouse and then bring home the turkey.

Paul: Yeah.

Michael: Happy first day of the rest of your life.

Paul: You made it possible. I'll never forget it. [Sighs] First day... "Happy Father's Day."

Christine: What are you doing?

Michael: Hello, Fenmore. This is your father. Uh, I just wanted to give you a heads-up about the time table for Thanksgiving. Your mother wants to have dinner at 4:00, so... well, uh, that's not true. [Chuckles] Uh... I mean, uh, calling about the time table. I was just talking to a friend about his son, and I felt like calling you. I love you, Fenmore. [Sighs] You're a bit late with those, huh?

Kevin: Uh, I forgot about them because of the whole TagNGrab mess.

Michael: Oh. So, uh... what have you decided to do about that?

Kevin: There's no way I can raise the money to buy Adam out. So it's done. Chloe and I are gonna lose our company.

Devon: Man, haven't you heard enough complaining for one day?

Neil: [Chuckles] My man, I'm not keeping score.

Devon: Well... [Chuckles] You know, speaking of scores, the Packers got a big game this weekend against the Giants. Think they're gonna get them?

Neil: Unh-unh. No, no, no. You are not weaseling out of talking to me.

Devon: Just do me a favor and promise me you won't say, "I told you so."

Neil: Now, why would I say that to you?

Devon: You'd say it 'cause you were right. You were right about the music business and how tough it is. Things were going great for a while, and now it's just -- it's slowed down. No one's booking studio time anymore. All the artists I was targeting, they've moved to either L.A., Chicago, or Nashville.

Neil: So, have you talked to Tucker about this?

Devon: What do you think?

Neil: I'm sorry, Son. I know how much you love that business. I was really pulling for you. And if you decide to go at it again, I'm your guy. I'm right there, okay?

Devon: Thank you. I appreciate you saying that. I really do. But it's not like I want to give up. You know, I just -- I think it's time for me to look for a backup plan.

Neil: Whoa. The backup plan. You remember me talking to you about that.

Devon: I do.

Neil: Aha. I know you're not the corporate type, but if you ever want to work at Jabot, there's a job waiting for you there.

Devon: That's very good to know.

Neil: Although, you may hate it there. 'Cause rumor has it I'm a bit of a hard-ass.

Devon: Who's been telling you that?

Neil: I don't know, man. I just have been hearing it a lot lately. But the first person to tell me was your mama.

Devon: Uh-huh. [Chuckles]

Adam: Sharon's just starting to get back on her feet. To throw her out now --

Chelsea: No. You're making it sound like I want to dump her on the street. Adam, we'll find her a place... pack her bags. I'll even sing her a lullaby at night, as long as it's someplace else.

Adam: Don't you think you're being just a little bit unfair?

Chelsea: Me? Have you even considered for a minute what saving Sharon has meant to her?

Adam: I have no idea what that's supposed to mean.

Chelsea: Oh, my G-- Adam, she is in love with you!

Adam: She's grateful to me. There's a difference.

Chelsea: Wow. You two rehearse that?

Adam: Hey. You're just being paranoid.

Chelsea: Oh, really? Being paranoid. Let me ask you something. Is this what paranoia looks like? "Adam has been my rock, my protector. Without him, I'd be lost."

Adam: This is what has you so upset?

Chelsea: Read between the lines, Adam!

Adam: There's nothing between the lines!

Chelsea: I asked you before if you were still in love with Sharon.

Adam: And I told you that I am not.

Chelsea: And what's the expression -- you can't con a con man?

Adam: That's right. That's the expression. So why don't you look in my face and look me in the eyes and listen to me? I am not conning you.

Chelsea: Then you're conning yourself. Because you are still in love with her... whether you want to face it or not.

Christine: Aren't those the last things you have left of Ricky?

Paul: Yeah. I'm removing every trace of him from my life.

Christine: Paul, if you regret it later --

Paul: I'm done with regrets. It's time to move on. Michael dropped the charges. It's over.

Christine: [Sighs] Oh, my gosh. [Chuckles]

Michael: I have to be up front with you and tell you that I think that walking away from TagNGrab is for the best.

Kevin: Yeah, tell me something I don't know.

Michael: And... that I am very proud of you for putting together your own company, something that was so extremely innovative.

Kevin: You don't have to placate me.

Michael: When have I not told you like it is?

Kevin: See? Do you always have to be so brutally honest?

Michael: You're gonna have to make up your mind.

Kevin: I think sometimes it would be nice to just have a friend, not always a big brother.

Michael: Why can't I be both? They tell you the same thing -- the brother and the friend. You only want to hear what you want to hear. You tell me something. Were you happy at TagNGrab?

Kevin: Hell no.

Michael: Now, what does that tell you?

Kevin: That I'm an idiot.

Michael: You spent all your time looking for investors. Why not spend your time looking for what really makes you happy? Look, you don't have to spend every moment of every day as if you are at war with the world.

Chelsea: Someone needs to tell you how you feel, Adam, because you're not being honest with yourself.

Adam: How's this for honesty? I love you. I love you. Only you. I'm not leading you on.

Chelsea: Well, then, you're leading Sharon on. And if that is the case, think of what it will do to her when she finds out. You will set her so far back, you will bury her. So make a choice, Adam. Tell Sharon she has to go, or you and I have to have a serious discussion about our marriage.

Adam: Chelsea, tomorrow is Thanksgiving.

Chelsea: And Sharon can spend it with her family.

Adam: Okay. I hope you were serious when you said that you would help her get settled somewhere. 'Cause I'm not just dropping her off the deep end.

Chelsea: Adam, I would never want you to do that. I just -- I just want her off the property so our lives can go back to normal. I miss you.

Adam: Oh, Baby.

Adam: Hey. Hey. Sharon, it's me. Sharon?

[Pills rattle]

Neil: Appreciate you.

Devon: You know something? I-I really actually miss having my mom around, especially on days like tomorrow. It's crazy. Who'd think I'd ever say that?

Neil: Right? I guess people can change after all.

Devon: Yeah. Except for you, man.

Neil: So, what are your Thanksgiving plans?

Devon: I'm gonna go to Grandma's for a little bit. How about you?

Neil: Quiet dinner with Cane and Lily. They'd love to see you. I know that.

Devon: I'd love to see them. I'll definitely stop by, grab some pie. You know a man can't have too much pie on Thanksgiving.

Neil: You know, uh, Cane and Lily are working at Jabot now.

Devon: Really? That's very surprising.

Neil: Why is that?

Devon: I just can't believe that Lily would work for such a hard-ass.

Neil: That's not funny.

Devon: [Chuckles]

Neil: No, no. I'm gonna rescind your job offer.

Devon: It's a joke.

Neil: I got you. That's funny. I got you. Give me some. Come on. You thought you lost your job.

Devon: I was joking.

Neil: [Laughs]

Kevin: That's easy for you to say. It's always the people with the perfect lives who sell that bull.

Michael: Ha! It's not bull. And if you think my life is perfect --

Kevin: Michael, you got out. You didn't have to grow up with Tom. You went to college. You got a law degree. And look at you now. You're district attorney. I serve coffee.

Michael: And you can change that.

Kevin: I've tried. I'm so sick of trying. Sick of hoping that the next big thing is gonna be the right thing. It never is.

Michael: So does that mean you give up? Listen to me. You're an amazing person. You got through that time with your dad. You survived so much.

Kevin: Well, then, don't I deserve a break? Haven't I paid my dues? How much longer do I have to pound the pavement when jerks like Adam end up in corner offices?

Michael: Little brother, there is no rhyme or reason why some people have to struggle and some people don't.

Kevin: Yeah, well, maybe that's the thing. Maybe it's time to stop struggling and just take the easy way out. [Sighs] And I can tell you that start-up companies and broken cappuccino machines and these crappy decorations are not the easy way.

Michael: Yeah. Hi. Chloe, Michael. Um... we have a problem.

Paul: I love you, too. Thanks for calling. Will do. You, too, Sweetheart. Bye. Well, Heather seemed so relieved.

Christine: She coming home for Thanksgiving?

Paul: Uh, no. She's gonna spend it in Chicago with Daniel and Lucy.

Christine: And what about you? Where are you spending it?

Paul: Well, I was going to, um...

Christine: Didn't make that any easier for you. I'm sorry.

Paul: Well, it wasn't like the kiss was one-sided.

Christine: It was really hard facing Nina. I... I just came back from the house, and she is really hurt. Here, can't we just chalk that kiss up to temporary insanity and forget it ever happened?

Paul: I don't know that I can forget. Or want to.

Chelsea: Hi. I got a bottle of your favorite cab. I thought that we could go upstairs and watch "The Outsiders." When was the last time we did that?

Adam: You didn't just go check in on Sharon, did you?

Chelsea: What?

Adam: You talked to her. She got upset.

Chelsea: [Scoffs] Where would you get that idea?

Adam: She's gone, Chelsea. She cleared out. Took everything -- everything but this. The one thing she desperately needs. If anything happens to her, Chelsea, you're responsible.

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

Jack: You seem to have forgotten who is the real C.E.O. of Newman.

Nicholas: I want to rescue my sister, too. But we need to calmly figure out the best way to do that.

Jill: You will never make me an equal at Chancellor. Nothing will ever change!
