Nicholas: 5:00? Uh, you know what? I like 4:45 a lot better. Yeah. Make it happen.

Avery: Excuse me, Sir. Are you open for business?

Nicholas: You're gonna have to come back. But you're gonna want to do that. It's gonna be worth it. It's gonna be a heck of a party.

Avery: Yeah? The wiring's fixed?

Nicholas: Good as new. You never would have known we had to rip open a wall.

Avery: What did I tell you? You can do this.

Nicholas: You know, I didn't think I'd be able to say this, but the Underground is officially... screwed.

Adam: Kindly hold my calls, Mason. I don't want any distractions today. Thank you.

Sharon: Does that include me?

Adam: Hey. I didn't expect you here for the next hour or two. Trying to make a good impression?

Sharon: Anything would be better than the last impression I made. Should have seen some of the looks I got when I walked in here today.

Adam: Don't mind those people. You have nothing to prove to anyone.

Sharon: Maybe I have something to prove to myself.

Adam: Maybe you do. But your capacity for empathy for others -- that's what sets you apart. And that'll make you the best at what you do.

Sharon: Well, we better get to it. Right, Boss?

Adam: Yeah, you might want to forgo that formality, since it'll be my title for only the next few hours.

Sharon: What do you mean? When are you leaving?

Adam: Tonight.

Leslie: Good morning.

Neil: Well, perfect timing, Counselor. Because I've got a honey-nut bar from Crimson Lights with your name on it.

Leslie: Oh, okay. Well, I accept. But only because I didn't have time for breakfast. Don't think this changes my mind about dating in the workplace.

Neil: [Clears throat] Um, how 'bout dating outside the workplace?

Leslie: You know what I mean.

Cane: All right, that's it for now. I have quick meeting in the conference room. I'll be back, okay?

Lily: Okay, and I have a conference call, so I'll see you guys later.

Tyler: Well, you know where to find me. So, are all the meetings here this dull?

Devon: Yeah, man. You'll get used to it, though.

Tyler: Let me ask you, um, how did Lily seem?

Devon: Lily seemed fine, I guess. Why?

Tyler: I'm not trying to be nosy or anything, but I saw her hugging some guy the other day, and she seemed pretty upset. Is everything okay?

Victoria: There you go.

Billy: Little tight.

Victoria: That's better. Sorry. Is that tight? Okay. Yeah. You're all set.

Billy: I don't think that our plan hinges on whether or not my tie is straight, Honey.

Victoria: No, that's not true. Because the more professional you look, the more serious people will take you, and that's exactly what we need if you want to keep Newman from swallowing up Jabot.

Billy: My brother better thank me for this one day.

Victoria: I think it's gonna be a little while before Jack sees the up side in all of this, really.

Billy: Probably right.

Victoria: Yeah.

Billy: But I still think he belongs at Jabot.

Victoria: Mm-hmm. And I think that my dad belongs at Newman. Don't you?

[Knock on door]

Billy: Oh. [Chuckles] Captain Ahab can have that big ol' whale if he wants, as long as it keeps him off our back. Excuse me. [Clears throat] Victor! Ha! Come on in! Catch any good blubber lately?

Victor: What is Billy boy talking about?

Victoria: Oh, nothing important.

Victor: [Chuckles] Even your wife thinks you're inconsequential.

Billy: Ah.

Victor: A hell of a suit.

Billy: Thank you.

Victor: You going to a funeral?

Billy: Not yet.

Victor: Why you all dressed up, because you scrounge up a job somewhere or what?

Billy: Actually, I did.

Victor: You did? Huh.

Billy: Yours. There's a certain poetry to it, don't you think? Bill Abbott, C.E.O. of Newman Enterprises.

Victoria: Co-C.E.O., with Adam. Jack put them both in charge while he's recouping.

Billy: Actually, that's a moot point after tonight. Adam's riding off into the Parisian sunset.

Victor: Really?

Victoria: Dad, listen, I know that this is coming as a shock to you, but it really is good news.

Victor: What is the good news about this buffoon running my company?

Victoria: He'll be working with us to help you get your company back.

Billy: So you might want to ease off the name calling. "Buffoon's" not very nice.

Victor: Now, why would he side... with me over his brother?

Billy: He is siding with his wife.

Victoria: And since I am behind you...

Billy: It's as simple as that.

Victoria: [Sighs] Daddy, Billy really is our only choice to regain Newman.

Billy: You don't have a lot of options.

Victor: I always have options, Billy boy.

Sharon: What am I thinking? Of course you're getting out of here as soon as possible. Who would stick around Genoa City when they could be in Paris?

Adam: Genoa City has its advantages.

Sharon: Uh, yeah. Let's see. There's the bowl and burger versus the Louvre.

Adam: You got me there. [Clears throat] I'm not too keen on leaving Newman in the hands of the galactically inexperienced Billy. But I have a flight to Charles de Gaulle in the next few hours, and I promised Chelsea we would both be on it.

Sharon: That's good. Nothing here is more important than your marriage. But I'm sure that doesn't make walking away any easier.

Adam: You know, you might be the only one that realizes that.

Sharon: This company... this town, the people in it... they're all part of you.

Adam: Like it or not, huh?

Sharon: If it helps, I'll do my best to keep an eye on Billy, make sure he doesn't run the company into the ground.

Adam: That would help. Thank you.

Sharon: Of course, I don't know if I'll be here to make good on that promise.

Adam: You will.

Sharon: Even after Jack comes back?

Adam: Especially after Jack comes back. He owes me.

Sharon: Really? What does he owe you for?

Victor: Thank you for coming by on such short notice.

Wheeler: Anything for you, Victor.

Victor: Want to extend my condolences. Sorry about your daughter.

Wheeler: How did you... I thought we'd kept a lid on that. My God, if it's out there that Stephanie --

Victor: Was an escort... under an assumed name. I don't think anyone would make that connection, okay?

Wheeler: Except you.

Victor: I just had someone in the wrong place at the wrong time... who had some information about the night your daughter died... had some information about the involvement of Jack Abbott and my son.

Avery: The framers lost your liquor license?

Nicholas: Noah said the store manager has looked everywhere. Why'd I have to get it framed? Why'd I have to get it framed? I could have just tacked it to a wall.

Avery: Okay, there is a very easy solution to this, you know.

Nicholas: Cancel the opening? Sell the club?

Avery: Yes. That is it. That is a perfectly reasonable reaction to a very small problem. No. We go to the county clerk's office, and we have them issue another copy.

Nicholas: That's gonna take, like, a week, minimum.

Avery: Yes, it would if you didn't know someone who works there. I'll offer him some free legal advice, get him to speed things up.

Nicholas: If I had known that was the way you get things done in this town, I would have hooked up with an attorney a long time ago.

Avery: [Chuckles] Well, I have to talk to him about an innocence foundation case, anyway. Why don't you give me one of those flyers? I'll invite him to the launch. That won't hurt.

Nicholas: Oh, man, I checked these.

Avery: What? Is there a mistake?

Nicholas: Only on some of them. Look at the address.

Avery: The first number's missing.

Nicholas: A third of our guests are gonna show up, like, 10 blocks away. You think somebody's trying to tell me something?

Avery: Uh, yeah, I think someone's trying to tell you you need to go to that address and explain the mix-up. I will meet you back here with a liquor license in hand.

Nicholas: So divide and conquer?

Avery: Mm-hmm. Nobody messes with Newman and Clark.

Tyler: Yeah, he was kind of short, seemed like, uh, like artist, kind of musician-type guy.

Devon: That would be Daniel. Lily was probably saying goodbye to him because he's moving to Savannah.

Tyler: Oh. So they're like close friends, huh?

Devon: Well, she was married to him before. I mean, that was a long time ago. You know, she's all about Cane now. Trust me.

Tyler: Yeah.

Neil: Got one coffee, light on the cream, no sugar. Just the way you like it.

Leslie: Mm. You are really trying to make this tough for me, aren't you?

Neil: Mm. What are you talking about? I'm always attentive to people's coffee needs.

Leslie: Mm-hmm. That'll be all you attend to during business hours.

Neil: You know, at some point, I'm gonna have to actually attend to business. Is that against your rules?

Leslie: No, but that's it. Business and coffee. And not even in that order.

Neil: Oh. Oh, that's how it is, huh?

Leslie: Yeah.

Neil: Uh-huh. I got you. Well, I'll tell you what. Why don't you have an amazing day and enjoy your sexy, hot, steamy coffee? [Sighs]

Lily: Thank you.

Tyler: Hey. I thought you had a conference call.

Lily: Yeah, it got canceled.

Tyler: You got time for me? To give me your opinion on some of my ideas.

Lily: [Chuckles] Well, I am sure there are much more qualified people that can help you with that.

Tyler: They may have more experience and degrees, but I don't think anyone knows the art of looking good better than you.

Cane: Let me, um... get out of the way for you.

Neil: Yeah, I appreciate you. I'm anxious to dive right back in.

Cane: Yeah, yeah. Whatever you need to get up to speed, you know. Um, I can take meetings for you, uh, some phone calls, conference calls --

Neil: Cane, Cane, come on, man. Slow down. I haven't been gone that long.

Cane: Yeah, I know. I just don't want to dump everything on you all at once.

Neil: Buddy, are you having second thoughts about this?

Cane: What, about bringing you back? No.

Neil: No, by being C.E.O. in name only.

Cane: Neil, you're the right man for the job, and I want to do the right thing.

Neil: Okay.

[Telephone rings]

Cane: [Sighs] It's your office. It's your phone.

Neil: Neil Winters. Yeah, can you hold on one second, please? It's for you.

Cane: Thank you. Hey. It's Cane.

Victoria: Dad knows. He knows there's more to the story than we're telling him.

Billy: Yeah, well, he better not start digging, because if he finds out there's a merger on the table for Jabot --

Victoria: No, he will never ever let you kill it.

Billy: Your dad would rather kill me and then make a play for Newman before they even found my body.

Victoria: Don't suppose that Adam would sign off on the merger before he flies out tonight, do you?

Billy: Not gonna happen. I will pack his suitcase and drive him to the airport if that's what it takes. All done.

Victoria: All right. Have a good day at the office.

Billy: Thank you. I am off to save our families' companies for future generations. Thank you very much.

Victoria: All right. Do me a favor and give Adam an extra kick out the door for me.

Billy: First things first. We need to make sure that nothing has changed his mind about leaving town.

Victoria: All right.

Billy: Bye.

Victoria: Bye. Good luck.

Billy: Thank you.

Adam: Yeah, I really like this idea to cross Newman's spa line with Jabot's cleansing system. That's great.

Sharon: Yeah, well, they work together perfectly. I mean, the sea scrub...

Adam: Yeah, that can go with the sonic brush, so...

Sharon: And the pearl serum, which we can package with --

Adam: The infuser. Right.

Sharon: [Chuckles] See, I don't even have to take any notes, because --

Adam: No, 'cause I can read your mind. It's a talent I have.

Sharon: [Chuckles]

Lily: I think you give me way too much credit.

Tyler: Oh, no. I did my research. You were once the Face of Jabot. And from what I saw, you got a real feel for this stuff. Great energy, great ideas. You know, I'd love to tap into that.

Leslie: Hey, you two.

Tyler: Hey, Sis.

Leslie: Hi. Saw your dad earlier. You must be glad he's back.

Lily: Oh, well, I'm sure I'm not the only one. I'll see you guys later.

Leslie: Bye. Now, um, you might be hoping to "Tap into" Lily's great ideas. But if you want to hold on to your job, I suggest you keep the personal and the professional separate.

Tyler: Yeah, 'cause that's working so well for you, right? [Chuckles]

Leslie: Hey.

Neil: All right, so, Devon, Cane tells me that you haven't come up with the tracks yet for the nighttime moisturizer spot.

Devon: Uh... is that a problem?

Neil: Well, yeah, it's a problem. I'd like it to be on air before Valentine’s Day.

Cane: No, Neil. It's not right for the market, though.

Neil: I disagree.

Lily: Hey. Rana says you wanted to see me.

Cane: No.

Neil: Yes. Yes. I did call for you. Come on in. I want you to come up with a proposal for the, uh, the body-wash line.

Lily: Now?

Neil: Yeah. Is that a problem?

Lily: Well, Cane has me working on summer lipsticks.

Neil: Summer lipsticks. You can put that one aside.

Cane: I would prefer if she didn't do that.

Neil: Uh, Cane, any new launch of a product takes precedence over established ones.

Cane: Sorry. That's an outdated policy.

Neil: Lily, Sweetheart, get me the body-wash art, would you?

Cane: Lily, could you please get me the lipsticks? Thank you.

Neil: Okay, wait a minute. Ho-- Cane, are we really gonna have a problem, an argument about this right here, right now?

Cane: We're not having a problem. There's no argument here, okay? But this warrants a discussion, don't you think?

Lily: Okay, you guys figure it out and let me know what you decide. All right?

Adam: Yeah, I'm onboard with all of this. I'll make sure that Billy knows about it.

Sharon: Chelsea. Hi.

Adam: Hey, you.

Chelsea: Hey.

Adam: Come on in.

Chelsea: I hope I'm not interrupting.

Adam: No, you're not. No, we're just locking some things down before you and I leave.

Sharon: I need to get to my office anyway. Eager to get started.

Chelsea: Good luck, Sharon.

Sharon: Thank you. You too. I hope Paris is everything you want it to be.

Chelsea: Thank you.

Adam: I'll stop by on my way out, make sure you have a handle on things.

Sharon: I appreciate it.

Adam: Hey, you. Is everything okay?

Chelsea: Yeah. Why wouldn't it be?

Adam: I didn't expect you to stop by the office today.

Chelsea: Well, I called about my car. And since it's in your name, I need your signature on the early return form.

Billy: Moving! It's the worst, right? Eh. Here. Let me take the pressure off. You, Sir, are officially released. Go on. Take an earlier flight. Bet you kids can't wait to start your new lives, can you?

Victor: I think my son and Jack Abbott have conspired together in a cover-up.

Wheeler: You got this from your investigator?

Victor: Well, Marcus, naturally, I'm very concerned about the welfare of my company since it has been in the hands of that fool Jack Abbott. So I had him shadowed. And he saw Jack Abbott leave with your daughter from the Athletic Club on New Year’s Eve.

Wheeler: She was found the next day.

Victor: I know.

Wheeler: You think Abbott --

Victor: I have no proof. None. But suspicions. Jack Abbott was taken to the hospital on New Year’s Day, suffering from a supposed heart attack. And my son held a press conference to that effect.

Wheeler: My daughter was dumped in an alley like garbage.

Victor: I know, Marcus.

Wheeler: I don't care who you are, what kind of mistakes you make. No one deserves to die like that. No one.

Victor: You want to see justice? I'll make it happen.

Adam: Thank you, Billy, for your extremely generous offer. But I'm not gonna be walking out of here until I'm ready.

Billy: Who isn't ready to leave all this and get to Paris? What's wrong with this guy?

Chelsea: He's a perfectionist. He wants to make sure all the loose ends are tied up. That's what's wrong with him.

Billy: Okay. If you say so.

Adam: Thank you for doing this, Baby.

Chelsea: Yeah.

Adam: Give you the keys.

Billy: [Sighs] Bon voyage, Chelsea. I wish you the best. I really do. You've made a huge difference in my life.

Chelsea: I'm really glad that it all worked out. Take good care of Victoria and Johnny.

Billy: You know I will.

Chelsea: I'll see you soon, right?

Adam: Absolutely.

Chelsea: Bye. Bye.

Billy: So, what are these loose ends that need tying?

Adam: Well, you're one of them, for starters. Are you clear on where you need to be taking Newman?

Billy: As a matter of fact, I am. I've decided that the best course of action is no action at this moment. I think we're gonna take the wait-and-see approach.

Adam: Does that include the Jabot merger?

Billy: That's on hold, too.

Adam: So you suggest we table that.

Billy: Well, it's not really "We" anymore, is it? It's my call. It's my headache. But you, you lucky dog, you, you get to go sip your vin on the Champs D'Elysées. I am so jealous.

Victoria: Well, I'm sorry you're leaving so soon.

Wheeler: Would have been nice to catch up, but I'm due in Washington.

Victor: Goodbye, Marcus. And I will be in touch about that matter.

Victoria: What matter is that, Dad?

Victor: Oh, Sweetheart, you know politicians. They're always looking for money.

Victoria: Oh. Hey, what time are you getting to Nick's opening tonight, huh?

Victor: I'm not going to that. I think your mother left those there.

Victoria: Dad, I know that it would mean a lot to him.

Victor: Oh, Sweetheart, I don't think that I'm the type of customer that he wants to attract.

Victoria: Okay, so you won't support him because he's not toeing the family line? He won't do what you want, so he's just out of your life?

Victor: You know that I always support my family, no matter how absurd their venture may be.

Nicholas: Oh, yes! Success!

Avery: One liquor license, courtesy of a very appreciative clerk.

Nicholas: Guess that dude really wanted some legal advice.

Avery: Yeah, he wasn't really interested in that.

Nicholas: Huh. Then how did you...

Avery: "Oh, I would love to dance with you tonight, Greg. And you know what kind of dance I mean. Nice and long and slow."

Nicholas: [Laughs] You have no shame.

Avery: I don't. I can really work it when I need to.

Nicholas: Yeah, I've noticed.

Avery: How'd it go on your end? What was the address on the postcard?

Nicholas: An Indian restaurant. We have a reservation there next week. In fact, we have a reservation there every week for the next six months. Ashish drives a hard bargain, but he promised to send all of our customers our way.

Avery: Well, good thing I like chicken tandoori.

Nicholas: Well, that makes one of us.

Avery: [Laughs]

Nicholas: Tell me again this is all worth it.

Avery: [Sighs] Well, I think only you can answer that.

[Music playing]

Avery: You did this. You made all of this happen. And you came through for yourself -- not your parents or your kids or your friends. For you. So you tell me. Was it worth all the trouble? Don't tell Greg about this.

Nicholas: Okay.

Devon: Thank you.

Lily: So, did you and Dad come to an agreement?

Devon: They agreed to disagree. Sweet! I got V.I.P. passes to Nick's grand opening tonight.

Lily: Oh.

Devon: Roxanne's gonna love this. You guys should come along.

Cane: Sounds like fun. What do you think, Baby?

Lily: Ah, the chance to dance the night away with you. I wouldn't miss it.

Devon: Hmm. How about you, Tyler?

Tyler: You know what? Maybe another time.

Lily: I wonder if Dad and Leslie will go.

Tyler: I doubt it. Well, not together, anyway. My sister is trying way too hard to prove she can keep things professional.

Lily: Oh.

Neil: Hey, uh, Cane?

Cane: Yeah?

Neil: There's a problem down in H.R. can you check out what that's about?

Cane: Right on it. Excuse me, guys.

Devon: I'm gonna give Roxy a call.

Lily: Will you ask her what she's wearing tonight?

Devon: Yeah, sure.

Lily: Thank you.

[Leslie daydreaming]

Neil: What is it, Leslie? Would you like me to stir your coffee for you?

[Back to present]

Neil: Leslie, what is it?

Leslie: Nothing. N-nothing.

Sharon: Adam, wait till you see this idea that I --

Billy: It's my office now.

Sharon: Oh. Sorry. I-I didn't know that you started already.

Billy: It's okay. Obviously you don't realize that you no longer work here.

Sharon: Actually, today is my first day back, too. Adam hired me for the R&D position.

Billy: Really?

Sharon: Mm-hmm.

Billy: Wow. That boy must think "R&D" stands for "Ruin and Destroy."

Sharon: No, it stands for "Repair and Dazzle."

Billy: Ah.

Sharon: I'd really like to make up for any damage I did here.

Billy: Yeah, that might be true. But, uh, Adam's headed to Europe, and he won't be here to advocate for you, which you're gonna need when Jack comes back.

Sharon: And that's why if I could just get a head start on things and prove to him that I am up for this job... here, this will give you an idea of what I can do.

Billy: [Sighs] I mean, look, this is great. And I know that you're talented. I know you're very talented. But a lot of people are. Why should I give you the chance?

Sharon: Okay. Um, let's see. How 'bout this? I am actually the reason why you are sitting in that chair... why your brother was able to buy up so many shares of Newman.

Billy: That is a darn good point. I guess we do have you to thank for the stock plummeting.

Sharon: And it'll never happen again. I guarantee it.

Billy: What the hell? You're on. Let's do it.

Victor: Sweetheart, is there something else you need?

Victoria: Well, yeah. You know, I just wanted to talk to you about this morning and how you left things with Billy.

Victor: How I left things with Billy. Well... he tried to lord it over me, so I didn't like that, you know.

Victoria: Dad, you know I wouldn't exactly say that he lorded over you. I mean, yes, maybe he took it a little too far. But he's very serious about using this position to help us.

Victor: Sweetheart, he can't even help himself. Fortunately, I don't need any help anymore.

Victoria: Well, do you have a better way to get rid of Jack and Adam?

Victor: Yeah. It's a plan already set in motion.

Victoria: Hmm. I wonder, does it have anything to do with Congressman Wheeler?

Victor: Why do you say that?

Victoria: I just think that he looked upset when he left here. Are you sure that you're not holding something over him in exchange for a way back into Newman?

Victor: You know what he was upset about? They found his daughter dead in an alley.

Victoria: Oh. I-I'm sorry.

Victor: It's too horrendous to even think of it. I just told him that this crime would not go unpunished.

Adam: What have you learned?

Man: Abbott's hooker, Stephanie Gayle -- she's the daughter of Marcus Wheeler.

Adam: Congressman's daughter. How'd they manage to keep that one out of the press?

Man: Bribes, influence, coercion. Take your pick. Wheeler met with your old man today. Still trying to find out what it was about.

Adam: I imagine I have an idea.

[Elevator dings]

Adam: This is your floor. Keep in touch. Jack, give me a call. It's urgent.

Neil: He hires me back with the understanding that I'm gonna be running the show. And what does he do? He contradicts my every move.

Cane: No, I had a difference of opinion, all right? I wasn't trying to override him.

Lily: All right, well, it kind of sounded like it. You're the one who set the terms with my dad.

Cane: I-I just... [Sighs] I like the responsibility, and I like the challenge.

Lily: I know, but you know that he'll give you a ton of opportunities. And he'll always give you credit for any ideas that you come up with.

Cane: It's not gonna be the same. I wasn't ready to give it up. I said it.

Leslie: Cane made a very big sacrifice for you. Don't you think he deserves a little grace, a little time to adjust?

[Telephone rings]

Neil: See that? Right now, that's probably for Cane. Watch. Hello?

Cane: Hey, Neil. It's, uh, Cane. Hi. I'm calling to apologize. I am sorry. I gave you attitude today, and, uh... I'm sorry.

Neil: Yeah, listen, Cane. I'm sorry, too. I overreacted. I-I dug my heels in. It won't happen again.

Cane: So we're good?

Neil: Yeah. Yeah, we're good.

Lily: I hope that you're bringing Leslie to the opening later.

Neil: Uh, tell Lily that I'll give it my best shot, all right? Thanks for calling. Well, um, Lily would like me to invite you to that party at the Underground.

Leslie: Ooh, that sounds something like a date, which we're not doing.

Neil: Hey, why don't you lighten up a little bit, huh? We'll go as co-workers, all right? Friends. Friends who share coffee.

Leslie: No.

Neil: Maybe a dance.

Leslie: No, not coffee.

Neil: No, not -- why not?

Leslie: Because it wouldn't stop at a dance.

Neil: Would that be so bad?

Leslie: According to the employee handbook, yes, it would.

Neil: But would it be so... bad?

Leslie: It would be the worst, Neil. Just the absolute worst.

Devon: Man, Cane's not gonna like this. He's gonna have to go to the factory in Kenosha tonight. No clubbing for him.

[Music playing]

Nicholas: Thank you.

Avery: For what, the dance?

Nicholas: Saving my butt today.

Avery: Oh, well, I have a vested interest in your butt. And this club. I am you first paying customer. And I do have my private booth.

Nicholas: Yeah, that has its advantages.

Avery: Yeah, I don't have to wait in line at another club for a seat.

Nicholas: I knew it. You were using me for my connections.

Avery: Yes. So now that you know that... what are you gonna do about it?

Nicholas: I can think of a lot of things I want to do.

Avery: Yeah? Like what?

Nicholas: Why don't you come with me to that apartment/office, let me show you?

Victoria: Adam's gone?

Billy: Elvis has left the building.

Victoria: [Scoffs] I can't believe we're finally rid of him.

Billy: Yep. I bet Adam and Chelsea are waving bye-bye to Genoa City as we speak.

Chelsea: Hi. I'm so glad you're home. Um, the car should be here any minute, and I already checked us in.

Adam: I can't go.

Chelsea: What?

Adam: There's still too much to do.

Chelsea: I-if you're worried about getting the rest of our clothes and things, that'll --

Adam: It's about the office. There's a crisis I have to handle, a situation.

Chelsea: Let Billy handle it.

Adam: Billy is part of the crisis.

Chelsea: Who cares?

Adam: I care.

Chelsea: Why? Why is it so important to you?

Adam: I promised Jack, Chelsea. I promised I'd look out for his interests while he's away.

Chelsea: What about my interests? What about the promise you made me?

Adam: We are still moving, Chelsea. I just need these two weeks. Okay? You can go ahead of me if you want. You can find a place for us, and I will get out there when --

Chelsea: When what? When Jack gets back? When he fires Billy? When Wall Street stabilizes? When Victor tells you he loves you? It's never going to happen, Adam. You are never gonna get what you want, but you will stay here and rot, just hoping that you do.

Adam: Just two weeks, Chelsea. That's all I need, and then I'm all yours.

Chelsea: [Voice breaking] 2 weeks. A month. 10 years. It's never gonna change, Adam.

Victoria: It's done. We don't have to worry about Adam anymore.

Victor: Are you kidding? He isn't going anywhere.

Victoria: But Billy just said that he was --

Victor: What Billy said is meaningless, okay? Adam will not leave Newman Enterprises. And as long as he's in that office, he'll be a threat, one that I will have to deal with.

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

Noah: We can't be seen anywhere together.

Adriana: Could always pretend we don't know each other. Might be kind of hot.

Devon: Where's Cane at tonight?

Lily: Uh, he had to go out of town.

Devon: It's his loss. My gain.

Phyllis: I've wanted to leave like a hundred times!

Jack: So why didn't you?!
