Kyle: "E.V."?

Theo: That's my dad. Eric vanderway.

Kevin: I'm agent keane. This is agent moore. We're here on official government business.

Chelsea: Wha-what type of business?

Kevin: We're looking for a man named simon black. We believe you can help us.

Simon: You stole from me, chelsea, and now you're gonna make me whole again.

Chelsea: That picture is from this morning.

Simon: Calvin so cherished that boy. I'm sure you do, too.

Elena: I don't blame you for being worried about tucker, but I really do think this whole will situation is a scam.

Devon: It'd sure be nice to confirm that if he wasn't on his spiritual journey. But when it comes to the bulk of what katherine left me, I'm gonna give it to cane, 'cause that was katherine's wish, and I want to honor it.

Devon: Honey? Are you home?

Elena: Hey!

Devon: Hey.

Elena: You're home!

Devon: [ Chuckles ]

Elena: I missed you so much!

Devon: Not as much as i missed you.

[ Both groaning happily ]

Elena: I know you've only been gone a few days, but it feels like forever.

Devon: Well, I'm home now. I'm here. I'm staying put.

Elena: Okay. Well, come on. Sit down.

Devon: Huh?

Elena: Tell me everything.& Tell me about your trip --

Devon: Hang on. Hang on.

Elena: What?

Devon: I know you want to know everything about tucker, and I promise, I will tell you. But I just want to look at you.

Elena: Just want to look?

Devon: No. Not at all.

Cane: Yeah, I'm aware it's a lot of money. No, I have this, uh, attorney who's dealing with those aspects of the inheritance. Uh, her name is amanda sinclair. Okay. Listen, I just want to talk to you about the, uh, investing of it, 'cause I want to make sure it's done right. 'Cause this is a huge windfall. Okay. Bye.

Nate: You're not wasting any time, are you?

Amanda: The gps tracker signal on his car is clear and strong, which means I won't need to call you every day for his location. I'll always know exactly where he is. Yes. [ Sighs ] You have no idea how relieved I am.

Theo: Hi. One black coffee, please.

Adam: You're theo vanderway, right?

Theo: Yeah.

Adam: I'm adam --

Theo: I know who adam newman is. I'm a little surprised I'm on your radar.

Adam: Well, I make it my business to find out about all the new players in town. Especially if one of them happens to be dina mergeron's grandson.

Theo: Long-lost, as they say. And this, uh, matters to you why, exactly?

Simon: Looking for someone?

Chelsea: Does it amuse you, sneaking up on people?

Simon: You know, I find in my line of work, the element of surprise is crucial. Now, are we ready to clear up that nasty little financial issue?

Chelsea: As much as we've all enjoyed having you stay here with us at the grand phoenix, I think it would be wise for you to check out immediately.

Simon: Now, why on earth would I do that, ms. Boudreaux?

Chelsea: My name is chelsea lawson, you son of a bitch.

Simon: I'm sure poor calvin would be disappointed to know you didn't keep his name.

Chelsea: The fed are on to you, simon.

Simon: Are they, now?

Chelsea: Mm-hmm.

Simon: [ Chuckling ]

Chelsea: Which is why I'm telling you, you should get out while you still can. The clock is ticking.

Simon: Yeah. Yeah, it is. But I'm afraid it's ticking for you and not for me. Those two people you hired, they put on a very convincing performance. Bravo. But only an idiot would believe they were federal agents, and I am not an idiot. And I'm beginning to lose my patience with you, ms. Boudreaux. Or lawson. Or whatever you're calling yourself these days. Now, I am not leaving here without my money. That was our deal. So you give it to me, and I will leave you and your charming son alone. Now, we're past the deadline, and I'm beginning to think you're not taking me seriously. What am I gonna have to do to prove to you, I'm a very serious man?

Chelsea: I think you're the one who doesn't realize who you're dealing with.

Simon: [ Chuckles ] Oooh! An actual threat. How delightful.

Chelsea: No threat. I'm telling you straight up -- you ever even mention my son again, you will see exactly what I am capable of. You like surprises, simon?

Simon: Mm.

Chelsea: 'Cause I'll give you one. And you will have no idea what hit you.

Nate: I think devon got screwed.

Cane: Okay. I mean, do you think I'm the person that screwed him here or something?

Nate: Well, we won't know for sure until all the dust settles. In the meantime, I'm asking you to be a little more sensitive to devon's side of this.

Cane: Okay. Look, I understand this inheritance is very personal to him, all right? It was very difficult for him to give up the money.

Nate: It's more than just the money. Devon's had a lot of losses in life you can't put a price tag on.

Cane: I'm very well aware of that.

Nate: So, when you're on the phone talking about windfalls, and --

Cane: First of all, listen. That was a private conversation with my investment banker, okay? That wasn't flaunting the cash around. And second, the truth of the matter is that that money was intended for me. So, nate, it's up to me how I intend on using it.

Nate: I suppose you're only doing what any reasonable person would do in your place. It's just [Sighs] Seeing devon going through all this, knowing how proud he was to be given katherine's legacy... it's tough.

Cane: I understand. And I'm sorry to see him suffering. But I'm not the person that you should be angry with.

Nate: That would be tucker. If he hadn't forged the will in the first place, we wouldn't be having this conversation.

Cane: Right. But he's doing exactly what you're doing right now, and that's protecting his family.

Nate: But he wasn'T. Now devon's caught up in all the lies, and tucker was messing around with his own mother's last wishes.

Cane: You know what, there are no limits to what people do to get what they want. Whether they're family or otherwise.

Adam: This really shouldn't surprise you, theo.

Theo: I'm not surprised, just curious.

Adam: Well, it's simple, really. Now that you have ties to the abbott clan and I know that, it makes you officially interesting to me.

Theo: Should I be worried about that?

Adam: Mnh-mnh. I'm not trying to mess with you, if that's what you're thinking.

Theo: Well, yeah, that thought did kind of cross my mind, considering.

Adam: Considering what, my checkered past?

Theo: You've had a colorful few months.

Adam: Mm. Well, I wouldn't concern myself with any of that. I'm actually just here to give a little piece of unsolicited advice. You know, I found out I was part of the newman family when I was around your age. So I know what it's like to suddenly find out you're part of this powerful family. It can roll right over you if you're not careful. Tricky business.

Theo: I'm finding that out.

Adam: I mean, of course, the abbotts are a norman rockwell painting compared to my clan, but they, uh, have their issues.

[ Clears throat ] Now you have become one of them.

Theo: I don't want to be anybody's "issue." I'm not here to cause any drama. I've had enough of that in my own life. Or what I used to consider my own life.

Adam: That's good. That's good. I'm glad to hear that. Jack is a good guy, by the way. And I do consider him a friend, so whatever your "lane" is... tread lightly.

Theo: Well, treading lightly isn't necessarily my style.

Adam: Theo, you're playing in the big leagues now, okay? So you might be inclined to take advantage of certain people or situations. And this will be my second piece of cheap advice -- don'T.

Simon: I admire your grit, chelsea.

Chelsea: I meant what I said.

Simon: Oh, I'm sure you did. Mama bear protecting her cub.

[ Chuckles ] You're adorable. Just like your son. You see what I did just now? I mentioned connor and nothing happened. You know why? Because we both know who's in control here.

Chelsea: No one controls me. And I swear to god, if you --

Simon: Stop. Stop. Sh. My threats are not just empty words. Right now, connor is walking the halls of walnut grove academy, and he has no idea what his mother has gotten herself into. I do not want to bring the boy into this. I don'T. It would give me no pleasure. But make no mistake -- if I am pushed too far, I will do the unthinkable. This is your final warning. Do you really want to risk your life, your son's life, over some money?

[ Sighs ] Think about it.

Chelsea: [ Sighs ]

[ Breathing shakily ] Adam, it's me. Can we meet? No. No, I'll come to you.

Devon: Mmph.

Elena: Oh, you haven't held me like this in forever.

Devon: Yeah, I know. That's my fault.

Elena: No. I'm not blaming you, devon. I know how stressed out you've been.

Devon: Yeah, but, I mean, nothing should ever come at the expense of our relationship, honey. It's the most important thing to me. I don't want you to feel like I ever take it for granted.

Elena: What I feel is loved. And sometimes I just wish we could freeze time, and stay like this forever. And even though the world comes knocking... we won't answer.

Devon: That sounds great.

[ Both chuckle ]

Elena: Mm-hmm. So? [ Sighs ] You ready to tell me what happened?

Devon: I'm as ready as I'll ever be.

Nate: There's one thing about katherine's will I don't get.

Cane: Hm?

Nate: Why did she leave the bulk of her estate to you?

Cane: Phew...

Nate: You're not family, you're not blood.

Cane: Uh, that's, uh -- that's kind of complicated.

Nate: I got some time.

Cane: Mmkay. Well, I mean, we weren't family in the classic sense of the word 'cause we weren't related, but, I mean, katherine and I, we were very close. You don't know the story, do you, of what happened?

Nate: Uh, bits and pieces.

Cane: Okay. All right. When I came to town, I was running away from this disaster of a life. And I, uh, did a favor for a friend of mine, and I, uh -- I kind of assumed his identity.

Nate: Phillip chancellor iii.

Cane: Mm-hmm. You see, jill and katherine thought he was dead. And he kind of wanted it to stay that way, but he felt guilty, so he asked me if I could step into his life. I know it sounds crazy, but...

Nate: [ Scoffs ] And they just accepted you?

Cane: Yeah. Yeah, 'cause we concocted this story that there was a mix-up when phillip was born, and I was really jill's biological son and she was thrilled that I was alive. But katherine... for the first time in my life, someone loved me, and they were kind to me. And it was overwhelming. It was like I was this -- this walking miracle.

Nate: Made a pretty soft landing for yourself, too.

Cane: [ Exhales deeply ] Yes, I did. Yes, I did. And then they go ahead and they ruin this greedy fantasy of mine by making me fall in love with them. Then, all the sudden, the power and the money and the name, it meant nothing. I just wanted to be the best phillip chancellor that I could be.

Nate: Until they found out.

Cane: Yep. And you know what they did when they found out? Katherine forgave me. And she and jill, they showed this faith in me. And for the first time in my life...I had faith in myself.

Nate: Family.

Cane: Family.

Nate: [ Sighs ]

Cane: So, nate, you trust me when I tell you that I want to make katherine proud. And I want to do good things with this money. Things that she would have done. I need you to do one other favor, okay? Will you please go and tell devon that I will not disappoint him?

Nate: I'm glad we had this conversation.

Adam: What's up?

Chelsea: Um, just touching base about connor.

Adam: Oh, I thought it might have been something else. You sounded a little frantic on the phone.

Chelsea: No. Everything's fine. I'm just a little anxious, is all.

Adam: Mm.

Chelsea: But I called connor. He said that everything was fine. But lately you spend more time with him, so... how do you think he's doing?

Adam: Uh, he's had a little bit of trouble sleeping, that's all.

Chelsea: Ohh. More nightmares?

Adam: No. No, nothing like that. I read to him for a little while, and he drifted off. And then everything this morning was right on time. He ate his breakfast, didn't forget anything in his backpack, and then we made it to school on time.

Chelsea: Aww. That's nice.

Adam: Yeah. Yeah, it was a great start to the morning.

Chelsea: Good. Good. I hope you have plenty more of those.

Adam: Mm. Yeah, you've been really generous about this, chels, and I just, uh, want you to know I appreciate it. You know, you were right. Connor does need both of us. Obviously we have a long way to go, but [Sighs] I think we're making progress.

Chelsea: Hmm. Yeah. I just want what's best for him.

Adam: I know you do.

Chelsea: Which brings me to my main reason for stopping by this morning.

Adam: [ Sighs ] Ah, yes. I had a feeling there was more to this visit.

Chelsea: No, no, no, no, no. Don't misunderstand. This is good. This is actually genius. I think you're gonna love it.

Adam: Okay. I'm all ears.

Chelsea: What would you say to, um, taking connor out of town for a few days? A trip, just the two of you?

Adam: I would say, "that sounds great."

Chelsea: Yeah. See? I knew you'd love it.

Adam: And then I would ask you, "what's really going on, chelsea?" I'm bad.

Theo: Dad, can you believe this?

Eric: That's some story, isn't it, son?

Amanda: Cane. Hello.

Cane: Hey.

Amanda: Come on in.

Cane: Thanks.

Amanda: Now, before we get down to business, I... I have to ask about your ex-wife.

Cane: You know, lily's okay. She's a little rattled from seeing you, but she's -- she's fine.

Amanda: Usually it just irritates me to hear how much i look like hilary, but... the way that lily reacted, it made me feel almost guilty for having her face.

Cane: Yeah. Yeah. Well, you see, she's come to terms and what happened to hilary, so I think seeing youkind of just, you know, brought it all back up.

Amanda: Yeah. I'm sorry.

Cane: You don't have to be sorry. She's not angry with you, okay, she just feels for devon, and, uh... but she understands what this inheritance means for my family.

Amanda: Which bring me to the trusts that I've established for your children. Please, take a seat.

Cane: Ah, thank you. You know, it's, uh -- it's kind of fitting that you're doing this, considering you're the one who discovered the forged documents in the first place.

Amanda: I was just the emissary. Chance is the one who discovered the fraud.

Cane: So, have you, uh -- have you seen him? Heard from him?

Amanda: No. And I don't expect to, either. My work with him is complete.

Cane: You sound, uh, like i can hear some relief in your voice.

[ Chuckles softly ]

Amanda: Yes, I am glad that it's over. It was one of the most frustrating cases I have ever worked on. But in the end, everyone was quite respectful. Even devon apologized for taking his anger out on me. But at the end of the day, justice was done. Katherine chancellor's wishes were realized, and you are as rich a man as you would have been six years ago.

Cane: I'm extremely grateful for this, I am. You know, it means I can secure my kids' future, which is -- you know, it's a priority to me.

Amanda: Yes, of course.

Cane: So, uh, I assume the necessary paperwork has been done, right?

Amanda: Yeah, I am working on them.

Cane: And?

Amanda: There's a slight problem.

Elena: The biopsy on the lesion on jett's vocal chord came back negative, so no cancer.

Devon: That's great. Right?

Elena: Yeah, it's great. But he's got a long road to recovery. So ana's taking him to arizona for a little sun and relaxation, but he's already to hit the road again.

Devon: Well, I'm sure. He's a -- he's a performer.

Elena: [ Huffs ] Yeah, maybe -- maybe not anymore.

Devon: Why do you say that?

Elena: Jett just got over one medical issue, and now this? It's too much. Jett's not young anymore. And I keep getting worried that one day he's gonna push himself too hard and --

Devon: Baby, don't -- don't worry like that, okay? He's gonna be fine. I wouldn't be quick to count him out. He's a warrior.

Elena: [ Sighs ] Yeah, but he's a stubborn warrior.

Devon: Hey, whatever ends up happening to him, we'll be able to take care of him. Okay? I promise you that.

Elena: Have I told you today how much I love you?

Devon: Yeah, you told me many times. And you did a really great job of showing me, too.

Elena: Mm-hmm?

Devon: Yeah.

Elena: All right. [ Sighs ] Now it's your turn. Tell me what's going on. What happened with tucker?

Devon: Oh. I don't even know where to begin.

Elena: Devon. You wouldn't tell me what happened on the phone because you said I had to hear it in person.

Devon: Right.

Elena: Well, here I am in person.

Devon: Uh, well, let's just say, whatever I was expecting, I wasn't prepared for what I found. (Man) I'm craving...

"The young and the restless"

will continue.

Chelsea: I thought you'd be thrilled to take connor on a trip.

Adam: Uh, normally, I would be. But it's just the suddenness of it that's a little baffling to me. And not to mention, it was the way that you sounded on the phone.

Chelsea: Stop it. You read too much into things.

Adam: Okay, I think I read you pretty well, chelsea.

Chelsea: Well, not this time. I mean, look at you. I'm trying to do this nice, generous thing, and you're acting like I have an ulterior motive.

Adam: Uh, I'm actually just curious. I mean, knowing that you don't like to be apart from connor, that you would want me to take him away, especially now... I mean, knowing that you like to check in with him every day.

Chelsea: Mm-hmm. I can check in on him. There are these things called telephones. And, uh, texting. I'm just trying to take myself out of the equation. Put connor first. I think it would be great for you guys to take a little road trip. You can focus on building your relationship. And, well, there are just so many fun places you could go. I mean, it's entirely up to you what you decide, but I'm thinking there's one in particular.

Adam: And where's that?

Chelsea: When I tell you, you're gonna want to pack your bags immediately.

Theo: You don't know how badly I wan to talk to you again.

Eric: You can talk to me any time, theo.

Theo: It's been so long.

Eric: Too long. Like your hair, kid. You could use a trim.

Theo: [ Chuckles sadly ] You know I used to hate it when you told me that.

Eric: I know.

Theo: I don't hate it anymore. In fact, I miss it. I miss you.

Eric: I'm right here, son.

Theo: Did you know this is who you are?

Eric: That isn't me. I'm ralph and margaret vanderway's son. They're the people that raised me, loved me, made me who I was. That's my family. The same as your mom and me were yours. My only regret is that we weren't around longer for you.

Theo: It hasn't been easy, not having you guys in my life. You know, I've felt alone a lot of the time. I could really use your advice right now. I don't know what to do.

Eric: [ Sighs ]

Theo: I mean, suddenly I'm becoming a part of this huge family, and... some people are telling me to embrace them, and other people are telling me to back off.

Yeah. Everyone has an opinion. But there's only one that matters -- yours.

Cane: [ Laughing ] Your printer froze. That was the problem. Okay. My, uh -- my heart nearly did a tap dance for a minute.

Amanda: Machines don't like me. They never have.

Cane: [ Chuckles ] Okay.

Amanda: Wait, you thought there was something wrong with the trusts? Well, there isn'T. I hope you don't mind, I just have to go down to the business center and print these out.

Cane: That's okay.

Amanda: There are a lot of pages.

Cane: All right.

Amanda: Okay, well, um, the tv remote's right over there, and you are welcome to anything you like in the fridge.

Cane: Okay.

[ Sucks teeth, chuckles ]

[ Grunts ] Hey! You got a minute to talk to your dad? No, everything's fine. Actually, everything's better than fine. Um... hey, listen, do me a favor and just -- just sit down for a sec, 'cause there's something I want to tell you, and I kind of would like you to hear it from me personally.

Elena: So, tucker was in thailand?

Devon: That's where I tracked him down. He was in some secluded ashram or commune. I couldn't figure out which one it was.

Elena: Wow. How did he seem?

Devon: [ Sighs ] He was surprised to see me. Um... but I think he was happy that i was there. But every time I tried to steer the conversation to the will, he would tell me to take deep breaths and focus on the nature that surrounded us.

Elena: Was he trying to play you?

Devon: I -- [ Sighs ] I don't know. But I confronted him about forging the will and letting me live a lie this whole time.

Elena: And what did he say?

Devon: He denied it.

Elena: Do you believe him?

Devon: I kind of do. Because he seemed sincere. And when I asked him why he just took off and left all of his responsibilities behind, he got this gleam in his eye and started talking about needing to find inner peace and divest himself from the material world, because money didn't matter to him anymore.

Elena: I thought your father was a tycoon.

Devon: [ Scoffing ] Yeah. He is. He'S... I mean, I thought I knew all of his moves, so if he's trying to scam me, this is something new.

Elena: So where does this leave you?

Devon: It leaves me nowhere, 'cause I went all the way across the world to get answers and get an explanation, and I came back with nothing to show for it.

Nate: Amanda. Just the person I was looking for.

Amanda: I'm kind of in the middle of something. Is this important?

Nate: Uh, yes. Promise it'll only take a minute, though.

Nate: Hey, are you -- you all right?

Amanda: Uh... sorry. Uh, what were you -- what were you saying?

Nate: I was asking if you were okay, but clearly you're not.

Amanda: What are you talking about? I'm fine.

Nate: You looked upset when you saw that guy.

Amanda: Yeah, I just -- I mistook him for someone else.

Nate: Someone who seemed to frighten you. You can talk to me, amanda. I opened up to you about practically everything in my life. You can do the same.

Eric: You know what I'm gonna tell you, theo. Same thing I always did.

Theo: "Go with your gut."

Eric: Mm-hmm. And hopefully the values your mom and I gave you will lead you in the right direction.

Theo: [ Snorts softly ] You make it sound so easy.

Eric: I never said that. Nothing worth doing is ever easy. But you got a good head on your shoulders, and a good heart.

Theo: A lot of people around here would disagree with you.

Eric: Well, they don't know you like I do. Maybe if you gave them a chance, they'd see who you really are. My son is a good man.

Theo: No, dad. Please don't go. Look, I have so much more I want to talk to you about.

Eric: You have other things to be focused on right now.

Theo: Please, just a minute. Like -- like did you know that dina never stopped thinking about you, that she wanted you to have a good life?

Eric: I had a good life. And I want you to have the same. Remember that.

Adam: Okay, now I'm curious. Where is this special place you have in mind for connor and me?

Chelsea: Hope's farm.

Adam: The farm?

Chelsea: You can finally show connor where you grew up. I mean, it's your roots, adam. It's connor's roots, too. It's perfect.

Adam: Huh. Well, uh... I did tell him about my mother. But, uh, for him to actually see where we lived --

Chelsea: Yeah. Exactly. Connor can run through the fields you grew up running through, and you can show him the -- the crops and the animals and -- oh, and kansas is so beautiful this time of year! It would -- it would just be so much fun.

Adam: Hmm. I mean, there are some other things that I could share with him, too.

Chelsea: [ Inhales sharply ] You mean us?

Adam: We did get married there. We were happy there, too. Hmm.

Chelsea: Seems like a lifetime ago.

Adam: Not to me. Anyway, I'm not gonna go there right now. Um... [ Clears throat ] Back to this trip.

Chelsea: Yeah.

Adam: You're starting to convince me. You're right, it would be... special.

Chelsea: You could show connor a whole other side to you. I really believe it would bring you guys closer. Plus, it would maintain this great momentum you've got going.

Adam: Yeah. Yeah, I can't argue with that. Uh, you make a very convincing case to take off to kansas. There's just one thing missing.

Chelsea: What's that?

Adam: You.

Chelsea: Oh, no, I can't go.

Adam: Why not?

Chelsea: Um...it's --

[ Chuckles ] Well, I-it's -- it's not a father/son trip if I'm tagging along.

Adam: Okay, look, connor and I, we can take other trips another time. I mean, you said it yourself -- hope's farm is a very special place. It's a very special place to me. It's a very special place to you.

Chelsea: That's really sweet, adam, but I -- I-I just don't think I should go.

Adam: What are you talking about? Connor would want you to go, chelsea. Come to think of it, having you close is exactly what he needs, especially after the nightmare the other night.

Chelsea: Are you nervous about this?

Adam: No, I'm not nervous about this at all.

Chelsea: Okay. Because I have no doubt, if connor gets upset or has another nightmare, you can handle it. I mean, you can always call me. But I think it's important for him, you know, to see that you can be there for him just as much as I am. You guys are gonna have a blast. You don't need me around.

Adam: Are you afraid of what nick's gonna think? Is that why you don't want to do this?

Chelsea: No, of course not.

Adam: 'Cause you've spent the night here before, chelsea.

Chelsea: I promise, that has nothing to do with this.

Adam: [ Sighs ]

Chelsea: I just thought it was a good idea.

Adam: And I think it would be much better if you joined us. But I won't push.

Chelsea: Thank you.

Adam: Do you know what I said earlier about being able to read you? Well, I am reading something right now, and I'm starting to get a little worried, chelsea.

Chelsea: I...can't possibly know what that is.

Adam: [ Sighs ] Chelsea... everything that you said about me, connor, and the farm, that makes sense. But you not wanting to go when you know the best thing for connor is us being together does not make any sense. So, you say it's not nick. Okay. I believe you. But there is something that you're not telling me. And I really need to know what that is. Wow!

Chelsea: Well... you can't say I didn't try.

Adam: What -- what is that supposed to mean?

Chelsea: Okay, I come to you with this terrific idea in order for you to spend some more quality time with your son, and you spend the whole time making me feel like I have ulterior motives. Why can't you just take what I'm saying at face value?

Adam: Because, chelsea, I know you.

Chelsea: No, it's because you don't trust me.

Adam: Oh, chelsea. I'm learning to. And it's the same way that you're learning to trust me again. But you know what, we have a long way to go on that. So I'm gonna ask you one more time. Is there a reason that you want both of us out of town while you stay behind? Are you up to something?

Chelsea: Okay, adam.

Adam: [ Sighs ]

Chelsea: You got me. You found me out. This is what I'm up to -- my plate is so full at the grand phoenix that it is spilling over. I have so many fires to put out, I-I -- I wish it would rain. I'm dealing with nick's campaign. I've got a dozen other reasons for you, but that will have to do for now. I don't get it. I'm trying to do something nice for you, and you are interrogating me like I'm a criminal.

Adam: Okay, well, that's not my intention.

Chelsea: Well, that's what it feels like. I am confused. I really thought that you would jump at an opportunity to take this trip with connor. A trip that he will always remember.

[ Sighs ] But now you just don't want to do it?

Adam: No, that's actually not what I'm saying at all, chelsea.

Chelsea: Then go. Be with your son. Of course I'll miss connor. But this will be good for both of you. Can't you just accept that?

Adam: You're right. You're right. You're so right. It would be really, really nice to take a vacation with connor.

Chelsea: Good. So that's a yes?

Adam: I'll tell him when he's out of school. We can be on the farm by bedtime.

Chelsea: Ohh. That's wonderful.

Adam: Yeah. Well, I better start packing, then.

Chelsea: All right, well... I'll let you get to it.

Adam: Chelsea? Thank you.

[ Door opens, closes ]

Amanda: I'm sorry, nate. Um...heh... I appreciate the offer, but I have nothing to confide to you or anyone else.

Nate: You looked scared, amanda. Like you saw a ghost.

Amanda: Look, I was just distracted, and that's it. I have another case that i took on here in town, and, um, I just -- I realized that I let something fall through the cracks, that's all.

Nate: So, a new client?

Amanda: Yes, that's right.

Nate: Sounds like you might be settling in genoa city.

Amanda: I don't know about that. I expect both cases to wrap up pretty quickly.

Nate: And then?

Amanda: And then we'll see. But before we got off track, you said that there was something that you wanted to talk about?

Nate: Yes. I just heard from the medical board, and my hearing date has been set for next week.

Amanda: Okay, great. We'll be ready.

Nate: Yeah, I hope so.

Amanda: I don't deal in hope, nate. You and I are gonna walk into that hearing room, we're gonna tell your side of the story, and when victor newman falls on his sword and takes complete responsibility, you will be exonerated, and you can put this nightmare in your rearview mirror.

Nate: Because you never lost a case.

Amanda: I've never lost a case. After I finish what I'm working on --

Nate: Oh, you mean the task I interrupted?

Amanda: Yes, well... I'm sorry that I was so brusque with you earlier. But, um, I'll call you when I'm free, and we'll go over everything, okay?

Elena: I'm really sorry, honey.

Devon: Oh, don't be sorry, baby. It's okay.

Elena: Well, you went all that way and came back with nothing.

Devon: Just means I have to, uh, start from square one. Take it from the top.

Elena: You know, I can't stop thinking about chance.

Devon: What about chance?

Elena: Well, everyone says he's this boy scout, but look what he's done. He hired a lawyer to contest the will -- one who looks exactly like hilary. I mean, that sounds like a personal attack.

Devon: I know. None of it makes sense, though. None of it makes any sense. And I haven't seen the guy in a long time, but nothing I have ever known about him would suggest that he'd pull something that sick.

Elena: Yeah, but people change. Especially when there's a lot of money involved.

Devon: Yeah. You are right about that. People do change. Maybe he's not the boy scout everybody thinks he is.

Cane: Yeah. Listen, I know you're worried about devon, okay? I know. Me too. But listen, this was his decision, okay? 'Cause we had no legal right to katherine's inheritance. So he's just doing what she would have wanted. You know, fulfilling her wishes. Listen, I'm gonna do good things with this money, okay? I'm gonna take care of you, your sister, sam. No. I, uh... I, uh, spoke to your mom. She wants nothing to do with the money. Okay. Okay. All right, listen, um... I know you got to go, so... I'll talk to you soon, okay?

[ Door slams ] Chance?! Oh, ho...

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

Ashley: Come work for me. In paris.

Amanda: Chance chancellor?

Chance: You must be my lawyer.

Adam: You're gonna have to shoot me before I leave this hotel without my family.

Simon: You want to be a hero? Okay.
