Episode # 11181 ~ Jack pushes Phyllis' buttons; Chloe resurfaces; Chelsea's world is turned upside down.

Provided By Suzanne

Victor: Well, I was hoping it wouldn't come to this, but now we have no choice. You know what you have to do.

Dr. Harris: [Sighs] The nuclear option. Mr. Newman --

Victor: It's the only way.

Dr. Harris: All right. I'll take care of her. Chloe. I'm, uh, glad you're here. We need to talk.

Nikki: What have you done now?

Chelsea: Nick, please. You're -- you're not listening to me. I am telling you.

Nick: Yeah, I know -- you saw a doodle at Harris' place that makes you think he knows where Chloe is.

Chelsea: Okay. No, it wasn't a doodle. It was a detailed sketch... of a wedding dress -- the one that I specifically designed for Chloe.

Nick: Chelsea, is there a chance you saw what you wanted to see?

Chelsea: Nick, stop. Please go back with me. I am positive Chloe's in that house.

Jack: Ooh. After the 5:00 whistle. Good for you. Putting in extra hours for that special assignment?

Phyllis: Yep.

Jack: Hold up.

Phyllis: Jack... you want this by the 1st, two days from now, all right? That's not much time.

Jack: You seem upset.

Phyllis: I'm fine.

Jack: Phyllis.

Phyllis: Jack, I'm busy. And I'd rather not be here till midnight.

Jack: I know you were concerned about Billy losing his job over this whole hockey-league mess. And I assume from your mood that Victoria's finally pulled the trigger?

Phyllis: Actually, no. She's keeping him on.

Jack: Well, how 'bout that? Good news.

Abby: Mom, are you okay?

Ashley: Yeah. Why do you ask?

Abby: I don't know. You just -- you seem a little out of sorts.

Ashley: I'm fine.

Abby: Because you asked me to meet you here, where Dina is staying. I mean, I guess I just figured you'd be treating the GCAC as off limits.

Ashley: No. Actually, I asked you to meet me at this place because Dina is staying here.

Abby: Okay. Are -- are you gonna tell me why?

Ashley: After you tell me how your visit went with her.

Abby: Okay. [Chuckles nervously] Right. So, you know -- you know about that. Of course you do. I didn't initiate anything. Dina asked me to come.

Ashley: I know. After which she couldn't wait to tell me that you had accepted her invitation.

Abby: Mom, she's my grandmother, and I don't even know her, and I get that you have so many reasons to resent her. I do. I-I get that. But she's here in town, and... wait. You wanted me to meet you here because Dina has a suite upstairs?

Ashley: Yeah, that's right.

Abby: Why? What are you gonna do?

Chelsea: I know this sounds bizarre.

Nick: No. It's all right. Let's just -- let's go over it again. Tell me exactly what you saw in Harris' place.

Chelsea: Okay. You weren't at Chloe's wedding, so you didn't see her dress, but it was a one-of-a-kind. It was very specific detail -- mermaid bodice, flounced skirt, three-quarter length, gussets at the sleeve, pieced lace -- very rare, extremely unique. Just trust me on this. Nobody could just design this dress at random. It was my design. And Chloe -- she loved it. She loved every detail. And think about it -- that was her last good memory before her entire world exploded.

Nick: Okay, but for this doctor to hide this woman who is wanted for murder even temporarily, he'd be taking a very big risk. Why would he do that?

Chelsea: Chloe was able to convince him. Maybe she made it worth his while.

Nick: With what? She hasn't touched any of her bank accounts.

Chelsea: Maybe it's not about money. Maybe she's got something on the guy. Maybe he's in love with her. Who knows? Maybe he's the guy that's been helping Chloe all along.

Nick: [Sighs heavily]

Chelsea: Listen, I understand if you're done with this. I do. But I-I can't give up. I won't.

Dr. Harris: Here you go, Chloe. Now, I need you to use your words instead of acting out, okay? So, tell me -- why did you look so frightened when you came in?

Chloe: I was thinking about those people that were here earlier. They're not coming back, are they?

Dr. Harris: No. I am not expecting them to.

Chloe: You're gonna continue to protect me?

Dr. Harris: You have my word.

Chloe: What about victor?

Dr. Harris: Uh, he and I want the same thing, okay? We want to see you safe and well.

Chloe: [Sighs]

Dr. Harris: Um... it is time for your medication.

Chloe: I wish...

Dr. Harris: What do you wish?

Chloe: I just wish it didn't make me so confused and sleepy all the time. I do feel better knowing that Bella is with her father.

Dr. Harris: And that's because the medication's working. That's why you're doing so well. There you go. Now, in a few minutes, you'll feel less anxious. Just take a few deep breaths.

Chloe: [Breathing deeply]

Dr. Harris: Good.

Jack: Well, you must be so relieved for Billy. Here he creates a catastrophe time and time again, and Victoria goes to the mat for him. That kind of kindness is rare in business. It's a genuine show of faith, particularly given how much money her company's gonna lose now that the hockey deal is dead.

Phyllis: You know, jack, I hate to disappoint you, but Victoria managed to salvage things in Toronto, so dare is still the official men's grooming line of professional hockey.

Jack: How about that? More good news.

Phyllis: Yes. Too bad, jack. I know how much you wanted that deal for jabot.

Jack: If there's one lesson I've learned over the years, it's never to underestimate Victoria Newman. When that woman wants something, she gets it. You would be wise to learn that lesson.

Phyllis: Yes, Victoria is a smart businesswoman. She's keeping Billy on the team because he's an asset.

Jack: An asset who got caught on camera talking to...

Phyllis: They brought it up, kidding around, and then he jumped in.

Jack: I'm sure he did.

Phyllis: Was it poor judgment on his part? You bet.

Jack: "Poor judgment"? Wow. There's a turn of phrase.

Phyllis: The only reason that situation ended up the way it did was 'cause someone failed to do their job, and then Billy -- even then, he offered his resignation.

Jack: Well, how noble of him. And how predictable of him to step over the line and then come to regret it, but then I guess I don't have to tell you about that. Boy, you two are just living it up -- the king and queen of bad judgment.

Phyllis: You don't get to rewrite history. You hear me? Victor Newman is the reason you and I didn't make it, and you know that.

Jack: Do I? It seems to me somewhere along the way, you made a choice.

Phyllis: That's not fair.

Jack: Oh, it isn't? What's not fair about it?

Phyllis: You tell me.

Jack: You wanted something more. You wanted something different, something that would salve your anger when you couldn't work through it with me. You were ready to end our marriage, and you didn't care who got hurt. I have now surrounded myself with people who insist on lying and cheating and making excuses for it.

Phyllis: Jack, who are we talking about now?

Ashley: Oh, don't worry. I'm not gonna cause a scene with Dina.

Abby: Then you're not upset with me?

Ashley: About what -- your going to visit her? Of course not.

Abby: Mom, I was just so curious. I felt like I had to go.

Ashley: Oh, honey, it's a completely natural thing for you to want to meet your grandmother when you've spent your entire life not knowing her.

Abby: And Dina did explain that. She also mentioned that she was afraid of you.

Ashley: She actually said that?

Abby: Afraid of how you might react if she reached out to me because of the way she left you and the family. And, mom, I'm starting to believe that that's true since you still haven't forgiven her.

Ashley: Whatever issues I have with my mother... I'm not gonna stand in your way if you want to have a relationship with her. You are a grown woman, and you are perfectly capable of making your own decisions. Thank you. And I guess it's time I took that to heart.

Abby: Thank you. You know, quite frankly, I was pretty nervous at first.

Ashley: About meeting her?

Abby: Yeah. I mean, I grew up having this image of her ever since I was a little girl, and I got to say the real person was quite different than that image.

Ashley: How was she different?

Abby: I saw this glimmer, like deep down inside, she was vulnerable, like she wanted to connect with us, but part of her was scared.

Ashley: Don't fall for that. She has perfected that technique.

Abby: Technique?

Ashley: Yes. She's really, really good at disarming people. That's what makes her a fairly shrewd negotiator.

Abby: Okay. Well, you asked for my opinion, and I was just giving it to you.

Ashley: I'm sorry. Go on.

Abby: Dina speaks her mind, and I liked that about her. I liked her. I wasn't expecting to, but --

Ashley: Honey, just don't expect too much. I don't want you to get hurt.

Abby: Mom...

Dina: Hello, Ashley.

Ashley: Mother.

Dina: Oh, Abby, it's so lovely to see you again, dear.

Abby: You, too.

Dina: Well, uh, graham and I have a meeting with Neil and Devon, so --

Ashley: We don't want to keep you, but, um, I was wondering if maybe you're free tonight.

Dina: For what?

Ashley: Well, it seems like a good time to have an Abbott family dinner.

Phyllis: I heard Dina's in town. Is that why you reacted just the way you did?

Jack: This conversation is over, Phyllis.

Phyllis: I'm assuming you have seen her?

Jack: I have. I was hoping for insight in how it is I wound up with you.

Phyllis: At least the person I'm seeing isn't married.

Jack: What are you talking about?

Phyllis: I saw you and Nikki in each other's arms, and you looked very cozy.

Jack: Unlike you and my brother, my friendship with Nikki is nothing we have to hide.

Phyllis: It looked like a lot more than that to me.

Jack: I wouldn't expect you to understand loyalty, even with an ex-spouse.

Phyllis: You've been sniffing around that marriage for weeks now. You've been wondering if victor and Nikki are having problems. You can deny it all you want. I know what I saw.

Nikki: The last time I was summoned here, I was manipulated into a piano concert. What kind of emotional blackmail is on the agenda this evening?

Victor: Chelsea went off on her own looking for Chloe. I just found out that Nicholas joined her.

Nikki: What?! He can't do that!

Victor: He just did.

Nikki: Oh, my god! You have to stop him!

Victor: They're somewhere in the country, looking for Chloe. Sooner or later, they will find her.

Nikki: Oh, I can't believe this. Nicholas and Victoria both agreed with me that the most important thing we have to preserve is the family, and now this has happened. How can this be happening?!

Victor: You know that boy has always had a mind of his own.

Nikki: You know, if he could do this, what is stopping him from telling Chelsea everything -- that your actions led to her husband dying? And I promise you, she won't have any obligation for keeping quiet.

Victor: You blame your son for this one, all right?

Nikki: If the truth comes out and this family is hurt yet again, it will be because of you. You don't get to blame Nicholas or anybody else.

Scott: Hey. How are you?

Sharon: Hey! Where'd you spring from?

Scott: Abby called me out for playing hooky, so I decided to come here and go for broke.

Sharon: Rebel.

Scott: Yeah. Hey. How's it going?

Kevin: It's a brand-new world.

Sharon: Um, well, that's what happens once you become a parent.

Kevin: I know one thing -- I'm not getting out enough. Obviously, a lot has happened since last I saw you two.

Sharon: Oh. Yeah. We are kind of --

Scott: I guess you could call it -- we're...

Sharon: Dating?

Scott: Yeah, that. We're, uh, um, sure, dating. So, there you have it.

Kevin: Cool. Well, whatever you're calling it, it's nice to see you.

Sharon: How are things going with you and Bella?

Kevin: They're good. And bad. The hardest part is when she looks up at me with those big, brown eyes and asks when mommy's coming home.

Scott: You know, I have some news on that front.

Kevin: You do?

Scott: Yeah. The people victor hired to track her down -- they said they might have some promising leads in, uh -- in Mexico.

Sharon: Wow! Really?

Kevin: Well, where in Mexico?

Scott: You know as much as I do. I mean, victor's being cautious with the details because many of these leads turn out to be dead ends. But I'm sure it's just a matter of time.

Kevin: Well, victor's resourceful. If the police don't find Chloe, I'm -- I'm sure he will.

Dr. Harris: You're, uh, quite talented, Chloe.

Chloe: Thank you.

Dr. Harris: You seem to enjoy drawing clothes.

Chloe: I like pretty things.

[Pencils clatter]

Chloe: Oh.

Dr. Harris: I'll get it. I'll get it. I'll get it.

Chloe: Thanks.

Dr. Harris: [Sighs]

Chloe: [Breathing heavily] [Whimpering] [Crying] I'm so sorry. I'm so sorry.

Dr. Harris: It's okay, Chloe. But you know the rules -- no acting out.

Chloe: I'm so sorry. I just -- [Sniffles] I didn't want to hurt you. I'm just so scared.

Dr. Harris: I understand.

Chloe: [Crying]

Dr. Harris: But all I've ever done is help you. Why would you want to attack me?

Chloe: I don't know. And...I would never hurt you. You've been so kind to me.

Dr. Harris: I've tried to be.

Chloe: It was just those people earlier, they -- they really shook me up.

Dr. Harris: Listen, you have nothing to be afraid of, Chloe. I promise.

[Cell phone rings]

Dr. Harris: Now...shh. I need to take this. Hello?

Nick: Dr. Harris, uh, I hope you don't mind. I was able to get your number off the internet. Um, do you remember? I was at your house earlier with my wife.

Dr. Harris: Yes.

Nick: Yeah. I'm sorry to bother you again. It's just, uh, this has been a very rough time for my wife, and, frankly, I don't know where else to turn.

Dr. Harris: What seems to be the problem?

Nick: Look, I only agreed to go on this search for her sister because I love my wife very much. Um...but this is starting to become an obsession, and I'm getting a little worried. She is now threatening to go to the police.

Dr. Harris: Why is that?

Nick: Because my wife is very determined. She refuses to give up. I'm at the end of my rope here. I don't know what else to do.

Dr. Harris: Look, I've given you all the information I have. There's no need to go to the police.

Nick: Hey, I'm with you. It's just while we were there, my wife seems to think she saw something there, and it's got her all wound up. I don't know. Would you be willing to meet us -- you know, come to where we were staying -- maybe reassure her? Because she's not gonna listen to me anymore, and then you could just let her know that whatever she saw, you know, doesn't mean anything.

Dr. Harris: What was it exactly?

Nick: Look, not over the phone, all right? It's got to be in person. So, could you come here -- I mean, unless, of course, there's some reason you wouldn't want to meet with us?

Dr. Harris: I have nothing to hide. I'll answer any questions that you might have.

Nick: Great. Let me give you the address.

Dr. Harris: Okay. Got it. See you shortly.

Chloe: Are you leaving?

Dr. Harris: I promised I'd take care of you, and I will. You have my word.

[Door closes]

Chelsea: You're quite a natural at this. Who knew?

Ashley: Uh, yeah. Traci's in Chicago. She's meeting with her editor and doing some advanced publicity for her book, and she thinks she can make it tonight, and she said she'd like to see you.

Dina: Well, I don't know what to say.

Abby: [Chuckles]

Ashley: Well, you can say yes -- unless, of course, you've got plans.

Dina: Uh, n-no, not really. Graham, I'd like you to meet my granddaughter Abby.

Abby: It's nice to meet you, graham.

Graham: The pleasure's mine, Abigail.

Abby: Actually, it's just "Abby." It's not short for anything.

Graham: I'll be sure to remember that.

Abby: Well, shall we all walk out together, or...?

Dina: That would be lovely. [Chuckles] Ooh.

Abby: That was huge. Thank you so much. You have no idea what this means to me.

Ashley: It's one dinner, honey. I just hope I don't live to regret it.

Dina: Darling, I think I left it charging on the desk.

Graham: I'll head up and fetch it.

Dina: Oh, thank you. Oh, I'm so excited about this evening.

Abby: I can't wait.

Dina: Me either. Uh, what time should I be at the house?

Ashley: 8:00?

Dina: Perfect.

Ashley: Okay. We'll see you then.

Dina: Good.

Abby: Bye.

Dina: Bye. [Exhales sharply]

Phyllis: Dina?

Dina: Yes?

Phyllis: I'm Phyllis Abbott. I was. Jack said that you were in town.

Dina: Phyllis. Yes. You used to be married to my son, jack.

Phyllis: Some of the happiest days of my life.

Dina: Well, if that were the case, why did you cheat on him with his brother?

Ashley: [Sighs]

Ravi: Ashley, I got the numbers you wanted for JabotGo.

Ashley: Okay. Come on in.

Ravi: [Clears throat] Daily hits have tripled since the launch. Sales are up 20%. We are exceeding expectations.

Ashley: That's wonderful.

Ravi: Uh...everything okay? You seem kind of detached.

Ashley: Brace yourself. I took your advice regarding my mother -- killing her with kindness.

Ravi: Really? I can't believe you -- um, how -- how'd it go?

Ashley: Well, I lived to tell the tale.

Ravi: How'd it feel -- swallowing your anger, trying a different approach?

Ashley: Not without its torment, for sure, but, um, definitely somewhat liberating.

Ravi: Did your anger return?

Ashley: Actually, no.

Ravi: Good. I'd say that's good. Wouldn't you?

Ashley: I guess. Yeah. I mean, it was easy to forget she existed when she lived halfway across the world, but ever since she got into town and she's been making these surreal overtures, it's been exhausting trying to sort through my feelings and emotions.

Ravi: Which you hate 'cause you're not in control.

Ashley: Mm. Yeah. So I took action.

Ravi: How?

Ashley: I invited my mother to dinner tonight at the house.

Jack: Wait. You did what?!

Victor: You actually enjoy assigning blame, and as long as I'm the scapegoat, so much the better. But I won't have it.

Nikki: Victor, I take no pleasure from this. You seem to have this ability to step away from the pain that you cause and just go about your business. I can't do that. I'm not wired that way. I hurt -- it hurts -- when I see our children suffer because of something that you did, and it hurts me even more when I think about how happy I was before...

Victor: Could have fooled me.

Nikki: Victor, the last few months, I honestly believed that you had changed your priorities, and you made time for the grandchildren and -- and for family dinners and -- and me. We went on that fabulous romantic trip, and nobody else thought that the great victor Newman would be able to step away from work...

Victor: But I did step back, and I enjoyed that trip with you, all right?! You can have the whole thing back if you want to.

Nikki: Oh, god, I wish I could, victor. I have accepted your apologies, your explanations... my role as your devoted wife. My god, I have even broken the law for you. But forgiveness? I just don't think that I have any left. I have no more forgiveness. It's gone... maybe for good.

Dr. Harris: You said that I'd be meeting you and your wife, that you needed me to help calm her down.

Nick: Yeah. I sent her off on an errand. She'll be back soon.

Dr. Harris: All right. Why would you do that if you knew I was coming?

Nick: I think this is something you and I should work out on our own.

Dr. Harris: I don't see how I could be of any more help.

Nick: I want to know about victor Newman. See, I know he bribed you to sign off on Chloe's release papers -- unless, of course, you have some other explanation for your early retirement.

Dr. Harris: Look, I don't know where you're getting any of this.

Nick: I'm victor's son -- I'm nick Newman -- so I know the truth.

Dr. Harris: [Sighs]

Nick: And because of your greed, when you signed those release papers, Chloe went off and murdered a man in cold blood, and that man was my brother Adam.

Dr. Harris: Look... when I signed those papers, I thought that Chloe had recovered, that she was no longer a threat to anyone. Otherwise, I never would have done it, and as far as I knew, victor needed her to help him with some task. There was never any talk of killing anyone. You have to believe me. Whatever happened once she was gone, I had nothing to do with.

Nick: Well, I know some people who feel otherwise.

Dr. Harris: But you can't blame the murder on me -- not without implicating your own father.

Nick: Oh, you're kidding yourself if you think he's gonna protect you. You're on your own, pal. But I promise you this -- I'm gonna make you suffer for what you did... unless you tell me right now, where is Chloe? Is she with you? Are you watching her for him?

Dr. Harris: Look, you were in my home twice. You saw for yourself that she wasn't there.

Nick: I only saw the entryway and the front room.

Dr. Harris: You know what? I'm done with this interrogation.

Kevin: Paul has been keeping me up to date on the authorities' search.

Sharon: Well, what have they found so far? Are you allowed to say?

Kevin: Just that the longer Chloe's out there, the less likely it is they'll find her.

Scott: They have to follow the law. Victor doesn't. So, he's got deep pockets, and he's highly motivated.

Kevin: Up to a point.

Scott: The guy was willing to pay $10 million just to save my hide, just 'cause my mom asked him to. So I think he's gonna go to any lengths to find the woman who killed his son.

Kevin: Yeah. Let's hope you're right.

Sharon: Almost sounds as if you'd rather Chloe stayed on the run.

Kevin: Well, somehow, my vision of "happy family" doesn't involve me driving my daughter upstate to talk to her mom through a glass wall.

Sharon: Yeah, well, Chloe did a horrible thing. She has to pay for that. But she's still Bella's mother. They should be a part of each other's lives.

Kevin: [Scoffs] Sharon, I'm sorry, but that's naive. If Chloe's behind bars, she and Bella are not gonna develop some beautiful, loving relationship. And victor and the Newmans will see to it that she serves the toughest time possible -- no more cushy sanitariums.

Scott: Chloe's sick. I think there's still a chance she'll end up in a psychiatric facility.

Kevin: And the first thing a judge would say is that the last time she was in one, it did nothing to help her.

Sharon: Well, Scott's right. Michael's a great lawyer.

Scott: He's gonna fight to get her into a safe place where she can get treatment.

Kevin: She would still be behind bars, and she would be trading in an orange jumpsuit for a straitjacket. [Sighs] As much as it breaks my heart to say this, I-I-I hope that no one finds her.

Chelsea: Yes.

Phyllis: My relationship issues with jack aren't as black and white as the tabloids made them out to be.

Dina: [Chuckles]

Phyllis: And you don't know how incredibly painful circumstances caused us to separate, all orchestrated by victor.

Dina: Oh, my. How unattractive, blaming someone else for your own weakness.

Phyllis: You know, at least jack and I found a way to remain civil, unlike you and john.

Dina: Well, actually, after our divorce, there were periods when we were quite amicable.

Phyllis: Yes. Jack told me about that story, and I'm guessing that even if you remarried, that would have never worked, 'cause no matter how much john might have loved you, you would have grown tired of that -- taken off again to parts unknown.

Dina: You seem to have problems with your own hypocrisy.

Phyllis: Excuse me?

Dina: The issues with john and me were far more complex than any tales you may have heard.

Phyllis: John is not the only one who was damaged. Jack still wears his scars. He has a difficult time trusting women.

Dina: Really? With good reason.

Phyllis: Touché, Dina.

Dina: [Chuckles] You may blame me for my own son's problems, but you're the one who slept with his brother and then destroyed their relationship.

Phyllis: I repeat, it was very complicated.

Dina: Oh, please. You're the only one that's had a complicated marriage? I cheated on john. I did. But at least I had the decency not to do it with any of his family members, and I didn't throw it in his face.

Phyllis: Ohh. Give the lady a gold star!

Dina: I chose to leave rather than humiliate my husband. But what you did was far beyond selfish. It was downright tawdry. And if my son has relationship issues now, it's not because of anything I did decades ago.

Phyllis: You walked out on your husband.

Dina: Mm-hmm.

Phyllis: You left a teenage son and two daughters who needed a mother. I fought like hell to have a relationship with my son, and I cannot fathom how a parent could leave their kids. I think you have inflicted enough pain, so don't you dare hurt jack any more than you already have.

Ashley: Sorry, jack. I probably should have run it past you since it is happening at the house, but before I knew it, everything just kind of fell into place.

Jack: And you said Traci's gonna be there?

Ashley: Yes. She's in Chicago, and she texted me earlier that she would like to see our mother. I figured, "what the hell? May as well just, you know, extend the invitation."

Jack: And Dina agreed to this?

Ashley: Wouldn't miss it. Are you kidding?

Jack: Okay. So, why the sudden change of heart?

Ashley: Ravi. He pointed out some family dynamics that kind of got to me.

Jack: Well, good for you, my friend. I couldn't seem to pull that off.

Ravi: Sometimes as an outsider, it's easier to offer a fresh perspective -- not that I'd ever assume to know what's best for your family. I just hope this dinner can be a healing and positive experience.

Ashley: Thank you. So do I. Bye.

Jack: Okay. Now that he's gone, that was way too easy. Want to tell me what really happened?

Ashley: Are you kidding? There's nothing easy about this. I had to be oh so nice and polite to Dina. I had to offer to break bread with her in the same house that she walked out the door, abandoning all of her children.

Jack: I shouldn't have said, "easy," but you have had a stone wall up for some time now. What brought it down? I know Ravi's a sweet kid, but there's a lot of layers here. How did we get to this place?

Ashley: I don't know. You've been thawing towards her. Look, jack, my daughter... wants to get to know her grandmother. Traci is her always wise self, and I've had Ravi in my ear. I just -- I was able to overcome some obstacles and make this happen.

Jack: Good for you.

Ashley: You know, listen, it's a one-time thing. It's not gonna change anything, okay? I'm doing this for Abby. I'm doing it for Traci. I'm doing it for you. After this dinner... our mother gets on a plane, she goes back to Paris, and we get back to our lives, okay?

Dina: You know, I'm sick and tired of being blamed for my grown children's problems. When I was married to john, I was desperately unhappy, and I realized far too late I wasn't cut out to be a parent. That's why I left.

Phyllis: You know that's not an excuse.

Dina: I'm not offering one. I hurt jack, too -- deeply. And I intend to make up for it. Can you say the same? Now, if you'll excuse me, I have an important meeting.

Nikki: Well, we can't turn back the clock, and I'm not going to feign blissful ignorance anymore, so... I guess we're both gonna have to live with this.

Victor: All right. So be it.

Nikki: You haven't even considered the possibility of Chelsea finding Chloe or the police finding Chloe. What are you gonna do then?

Victor: Now listen to me.

Nikki: I-I-I don't even want to hear it. I'm not listening.

Nikki: [Sighs]

[Telephone rings]

Victor: Yep?

Nick: Dad?

Victor: Listen to me. You lied to me about Chelsea's search. You went along with her, although your mother -- we all had agreed not to let the story come out.

Nick: It's over, dad. I just spoke to dr. Harris. He admitted everything. In fact, he's gonna lead us to Chloe right now.

Chelsea: [Gasps]

Next on "the young and the restless"...

Dina: I know you and Ashley always had sibling rivalry. I mean, that's something a mother just doesn't forget.

Nikki: They found Chloe, didn't they?

Chelsea: Oh, god. Chloe, wake up! Chloe, wake up!
