Provided By Suzanne

Jack: Tell me what your plans are. How far do you want to take this thing? Do you want to stop at city council, or do you have bigger plans for a higher office in the future?

Nick: Yeah, I haven't thought that far ahead. I just want to do as much good as possible for genoa city.

Simon: You have 24 hours to give me the money your dearly departed husband owed me.

Chelsea: I don't care if the money's been properly washed. I just need it in my hands today.

Kevin: I can't do that. The feds were investigating the bank. They closed in. They seized all assets and accounts.

Simon: This is your final warning. Do you really want to risk you life, your son's life, over some money?

Amanda: Chance chancellor?

Chance: You must be my lawyer. Now, if you would please excuse me, I'm working on a case.

Abby: Uh, excuse me. This is my suite.

Chance: Right now it's ground zero for a federal sting operation.

Phyllis: I can help you. I'm head of security here. I have access to the schematics of the building, also a bird's-eye view into --

Chance: Thank you, but I've got this.

Chelsea: [ Tearfully ] Just go, okay?

Adam: Tell me, are you in danger? Is connor in danger?

Simon: I want everybody out of this hotel. Everybody but you, chelsea, and her little boy.

Phyllis: Our customers are protected from any sort of attack. There is even a silent alarm behind the check-in desk just in case it's needed.

Simon: Chelsea, you brought it on yourself. If you'd have just done what i asked, we would not be in this unfortunate situation.

Abby: What do you want from us? Because I-if it's money, then i can open the hotel safe. You can have everything inside of it.

Simon: No. I'm afraid that's no longer an option. Too many federal agents outside waiting for me. And besides, what's ever in that safe...isn't nearly enough.

Abby: How much do you want? You know what? Maybe you should negotiate with chelsea. She's the one that you came here for.

Chelsea: Hey, everything's gonna be okay, honey. I promise you.

Simon: Mommy's right. Everything's gonna be just fine. Just so long as I get everything I want.

Phyllis: Okay. Oh. Wow. Are you locking us in, or are you locking the bad guys out?

Chance: Both.

Phyllis: Okay. Don't you think that's a little overboard for a simple money launderer?

Chance: How many money launderers you been around?

Phyllis: More than you'd think.

Chance: You said that we could check the hotel security from here. Show me.

Phyllis: Yeah. Uh, listen, I really want to be low-key about this. I don't want my hotel known as a crime den.

Chance: Your hotel's reputation is not my top concern right now.

Phyllis: Okay, okay. But perception is reality.

Chance: Sometimes.

Phyllis: Definitely with you, isn't it? 'Cause somebody is working real hard to make it look like you're the one who opened up katherine chancellor's will.

Chance: Yep.

Phyllis: But you didn't do it?

Chance: No.

Phyllis: You didn't hire amanda sinclair?

Chance: Negative.

Phyllis: But you know who did?

Chance: I do have a theory.

Phyllis: You gonna tell me?

Chance: Is there any way i can check the hotel security system without you?

Phyllis: No. There is not.

Chance: Is there a magical button I can push to make you stop talking?

Phyllis: [ Clears throat ] You're not the only one who has had that fantasy.

Chance: I bet.

Phyllis: And, uh, there is a way to get me to stop talking.

Chance: [ Sighs ]

Phyllis: I have questions.

[ Cellphone rings ] A lot more where that came from.

Chance: Yeah? Wait, what? Okay. I got it.

Phyllis: What?

Chance: My agent in the hotel is no longer inside. I need to see the lobby now.

Phyllis: Oh, my god.

Simon: I want the entire building on full lockdown. No access in or out. And if there's any guests or staff on the upper floors, keep them there.

Abby: I-I can do all of that from the front-desk computer. I can lock the -- the exits, the stairwells, the elevators.

Simon: Okay. Good. You know this is for everyone's own good, right? The fewer people involved, the better odds no one gets hurt. Come on.

Jack: So, did you see the setup outside for the debate?

Nick: Yeah. Looks like the tent can seat a couple hundred people.

Jack: You will be mic'D. No need to project. You're at the podium on the left. It will feature your good side.

Nick: I didn't know I had one of those.

Jack: That is your right side.

Nick: [ Chuckling ] Good to know. Feels so good to have you in my corner on this.

Jack: You know what, being back in politics has kind of got my juices flowing.

Nick: Yeah? Maybe, uh, running again yourself someday?

Jack: I think I make a better advisor than a candidate. But we make a pretty good team.

Nick: Yeah. Hopefully an unbeatable one.

Jack: Okay, so, who is it you're looking for? Nikki?

Nick: No. I told her to stay away. I wanted to avoid the newman-family optics.

Jack: Then you're waiting for chelsea?

Abby: You know, there's one foolproof way to make sure nobody gets hurt. Let them go.

Simon: Oh, you're a hostage negotiator now?

Abby: I-I could just have my staff clear everyone out instead of locking them in.

Simon: Too much time and effort. That also applies to this conversation. Go.

Chelsea: Even if you get the jump on him, he is armed. You are not.

Adam: Okay, well, that is a risk that I have to take, chelsea.

Chelsea: No, you don'T. You could be shot.

Adam: I don't give a damn about what happens to me.

Chelsea: Well, I do. And so does your son.

Adam: Look, all I got to do -- I got to give you time to get out of here safely. That's it.

Chelsea: No. No. I appreciate you wanting to try, but it's not worth it. I will not be responsible for you getting hurt. Or worse. Think about what it would do to him.

Adam: It's the best idea that I've come up with so far. So if you have a better way, please, let me know.

Chelsea: I might. Let me handle him. We are weakening our enamel more often than we even realize.

Chelsea: Hey. I don't want you to worry, okay? We're just gonna give this man what he wants, and then we're gonna go home. All right?

Simon: Hey. What's all this whispering about?

Adam: She's reassuring our child that everything's gonna be all right. So why don't you back off?

Simon: Do I need to remind you, you're in no position to be barking orders at me?

Abby: No, no. He's not barking orders. He's just worried about his son. Connor is a scared little boy. So could you just ease off a little bit?

Adam: It's better for you if you let his mother talk to him.

Simon: Okay. Do what you need to do to keep the boy in line.

Connor: I'm scared, mom.

Chelsea: I know. I know. But we have to be brave, okay? Let's try to think about something else. Or -- or let's use our magic eyes, huh? Let's do that. And you -- all you see is happy things. Can you use your magic eyes for mommy?

Connor: I can'T. He has --

Chelsea: I know. I know. Let -- let's not think about him, okay? Just focus on me and your dad. We are here, and we are gonna protect you. Um... let's, um... u-uh, let's think about when we went to the amusement park. What was your favorite ride? Hm? Was it, um... the log ride, or the -- uh, the bumper cars, or that -- that spinny ride that made your mom really sick? What was your favorite?

Connor: The spinny one.

Chelsea: Yeah. Yeah, it was the spinny one. I feel like I'm on that ride right now.

[ Sighs ]

Cane: All right. Listen, the, uh, elevators aren't moving and the stairwells won't open. We're definitely locked down.

Amanda: So we're trapped?

Cane: [ Grunts ]

Amanda: That's what's happening?

Cane: No, listen, we're safe up here, okay?

Amanda: Yeah. I feel safe. Very much so. You know, nowhere to run. 10 stories up.

Cane: Listen, chance is on this.

Amanda: Yeah, so he -- he gets to be a hero, and we are trapped in here with targets our backs.

Cane: Listen, just sit down, all right?" I'll get you something from the mini-bar.

Amanda: No. No, I would rather run out that door, down the stairs, and away from this place.

Cane: Where were you locked up, and who put you there?

Chance: Four hostages held at gunpoint.

Phyllis: Oh, my god. This is why your agent couldn't do anything while they were in the lobby, right?

Chance: It was too dangerous.

Phyllis: Yeah. We have to do something. Adam has already been shot this year, and his little boy, connor, has seen way too much in his young life. What are we gonna do?

Chance: I have to call for reinforcements.

Nick: Chelsea should be here. I wonder what's holding her up?

Jack: I'm sure she's got good reason. Until she gets here, though, let's talk a little debate strategy, shall we?

Nick: Let's do it.

Jack: Your primary opponent is...?

Nick: The small-businessman who owns the chain of dry cleaners.

Jack: And he believes in tax cuts across the board. Always very popular.

Nick: Yeah, but some people really like to have good roads and good schools.

Jack: Very good point. The other candidate is...?

Nick: The lady who is pushing the chicken-coop ordinance.

Jack: Yes, our, uh, professional closet organizer. She believes everyone should have as many chickens as they want.

Nick: And be the least popular person in the neighborhood.

Jack: [ Chuckles ] Sounds like you're up to speed.

Nick: [ Sighs ] I just don't know where chelsea is? I mean, she knows how important this is to me.

Jack: I'm sure she's got a good reason.

Nick: Yeah. I just would feel a lot more confident with her by my side.

Jack: I get that. You have got everything you need to win this thing -- commitment, intelligence, heart. Just be yourself.

Nick: Thanks, jack.

Chelsea: I can get you what you want.

Simon: I don't believe you.

Chelsea: I spoke to my mother earlier. She wired me $1 million. I can get it for you. As a -- a gesture of good faith, with the rest of the money to come as soon as possible.

Simon: Mm. See, the problem is, I've heard this before.

Chelsea: Well, now I see what you're capable of. I would not double-cross you. So let me call the bank, okay, and I'll have them wire you the money. Just let us go. We won't even press charges.

Simon: [ Sighs ] That offer sounds good on paper. But as soon as I let you leave, all my leverage walks out the door with me.

Chelsea: You have my word. I will make it happen.

Simon: [ Chuckles ] I've learned a long time ago not to trust criminals. Because we lie. It's kind of our thing.

Chelsea: I'm not a criminal.

Simon: [ Snaps fingers ] Another lie. I cannot accept your offer. But thank you for letting me know that there are still cellphones around. I'll take that. Thank you. Come on.

Abby: No, I-I -- I don't have my phone. I left it in the office.

Simon: Really? You're the one person in america not addicted to her phone?

Abby: I-I didn't walk into the lobby expecting a hostage situation!

Chelsea: Simon, please. Let's just take a step back. No one has gotten hurt. We can still salvage this.

Simon: I gave you all the time in the world to do what i asked. And you refused to comply. Now, unfortunately, your time is up.

[ Alarm rings ]

Chance: What was that?

Phyllis: That is -- that's a panic button for the hotel. I-it's under the check-in area, by the bar.

Chance: Abby must have pressed it.

Phyllis: Maybe she's not as inept as I thought.

Chance: I don't remember abby handing her cellphone over to simon. Is there any way that you can text her?

Phyllis: Yeah.

Chance: But nothing that gives us away, just in case he does have the phone.

Phyllis: Yeah, like something in code, right? "Hey, bestie! I got your message." Uh, "happy hour sounds great. See you! Love you!" She'll definitely know something's up.

Chance: Whatever works. In the meantime, do you have schematics for the hotel?

Phyllis: Yes, I do.

Cane: Is, uh... is that helping?

Amanda: It isn't hurting.

Cane: Listen, uh, if I overstepped before, I mean, I-I didn't mean to --

Amanda: No one said that we need to talk while we're in this place.

Cane: Okay. All right, then, we will, uh... we'll just stand here, and we won't talk, okay? Okay.

[ Sighs ]

Amanda: I'm your attorney. I set up the trusts for you children. We had a business transaction that should have ended hours ago, but this -- whatever this is -- is happening. And I am gonna drink another tiny bottle, and you are gonna mind your business, and we're gonna forget that this happened if we ever get out of here.

[ Bottle slams ]

Jack: If the other candidates stick to the talking points, call them out on it. Try to get -- try to get them to delve into the issues.

Nick: Yeah, keep 'em off balance.

Jack: Yeah, exactly. Elevate the conversation.

Nick: I think I'm ready. Let's do this.

Paul: Uh, sorry, folks. The debate has been canceled. We need to clear this space.

Nick: What's going on?

Paul: There is an active situation at the grand phoenix.

Jack: What kind of situation?

Nick: Abby and chelsea are there!

Paul: Now, I need you to make sure all the road blocks are in place, and everything in the vicinity is shut down. Set up our command post on the patio.

Rey: Okay.

Nick: Rey, what is going on?

Rey: It's a hostage situation.

[ Cellphone rings ]

Paul: Yeah, chief williams.

Chance: Hey, it's chance. Do you have an update?

Paul: Yeah, I've got my people in place around the perimeter of the hotel, and we set up a base of command at crimson lights.

Chance: Great. It's nice to know that some things never change.

Paul: We are here to get you whatever you need.

Chance: Thank you. The feds didn't exactly give me enough manpower to handle this situation.

Paul: How many hostages are there?

Chance: Four. All newmans -- abby and adam, chelsea, and their son.

Phyllis: Connor.

Chance: Connor.

Paul: Who's there with you?

Chance: Phyllis. She set up the security system here. She's helping me get a bead on things. We got full eyes on the room.

Paul: What else do you need from me?

Chance: I think it should be you that talks to the hostage-taker.

Paul: Okay. I'd be happy to do that.

Chance: He may let his guard down talking to local cops as opposed to the feds.

Paul: All right. Chance, hold on a second. Abby, adam, connor, and chelsea are being held hostage. Okay?

Rey: Yeah.

Paul: All right. I'll -- I'll keep him talking as long as I can. So, what am I dealing with? Tell me -- tell me what I need to know about this guy.

Nick: Chelsea, it's me. Call me as soon as you get this. I need to know you're okay.

Jack: [ Sighs ] Oh, oh.

Rey: Okay, so, um... chelsea, connor, abby, and adam are being held against their will.

Nick: I need to get over there.

Rey: No, no! You do that, and you can get everyone killed.

Chelsea: I warned you the feds were after you. That it wasn't smart for you to stick around.

Abby: Wait, why were you warning simon? Were you protecting him? Oh, my god. Are you working with him?!

Chelsea: Of course not.

Abby: Well, you have been fixated on him for days!

Chelsea: Abby --

[ Telephone rings ]

Simon: Answer it. No tricks.

Abby: Grand phoenix. It's for you. It's the chief of police.

Simon: Finally. Someone able to meet my demands. Chief of police. A pleasure.

Chance: Paul's trying to keep simon talking. Just wish we had someone down there to help us. You heard back from abby yet? PPhyllis: No, not yet. Uh, I'm not sure she's the one to help.

Chance: Who do you think would be more helpful?

Phyllis: Well, your buddy, adam.

Chance: Not exactly trustworthy.

Phyllis: Yeah, but he'd take a bullet for connor.

Chance: What about chelsea?

Phyllis: [ Scoffs ] She's the least trustworthy of them all. I wouldn't be shocked if she was in with this guy.

Chance: What would make you say that?

Phyllis: Because I saw them talking in the lobby, and it looked very shady.

Chance: No. Her body language looks sincere. She's truly scared for that boy.

Phyllis: [ Sighs ] All right, well, if abby's the only one we have, we got to go with abby. Try and text her again.

Phyllis: Okay. She's responding.

Chance: Tell her that we're upstairs, and we can see her on the security cams, and that we have a plan.

Phyllis: Do we have a plan?

Chance: Tighten in right here at the bar. Ask her if she's willing to help.

[ Keys clacking ]

Simon: Yeah, I've heard what you have to say. Now do I make myself clear?

Paul: Crystal. We want to get you everything you want as soon as possible.

Simon: Well, good. We want the same thing.

Paul: That this ends without a shootout, I hope.

Simon: As long as my demands are met.

Paul: First I need to know that everyone's safe.

Simon: No problem.

[ Sighs ] Everyone say hello to chief williams. Tell him what a lovely time we're having.

Chelsea: [ Stammers ] Hi, paul. Connor and I are okay.

Adam: I'm still in one piece.

Paul: I'm glad to hear everyone is all right. Let's keep it that way. You know, simon, a very quiet, calm surrender would go a long way to helping you cut a deal.

Simon: Yeah. Yeah, I'm sure it would.

[ Sighs ] But I'm not going out that easy. Come here, son. Come with me.

Chelsea: Oh, no. No, no! Take me instead!

Adam: No, no, no! That's not the right play, okay? Listen to me! Just listen to me, okay? You take me, all right. I'm a much -- I'm a much more valuable hostage.

Simon: Stop with the sentimentality! It is making me nauseous! Now, do not make me do this. Do not make me do this! Come here!

Chelsea: No, please! Please! Wait!

Simon: You still there, chief?

Paul: I'm here. I want $5 million and a private jet. Might be a little roomy for the two of us, but we'll make do, won't we, buddy?

[ Connor whimpers ]

Nick: I can't just sit here and do nothing.

Jack: I-I get it. We have no choice.

Nick: There's always a choice!

Jack: No. I understand your frustration. We have to let law-enforcement take care of this.

Nick: I cannot believe I was upset at chelsea for not being here. I should have known something terrible happened.

Jack: You could never have known.

Nick: Well, I could have trusted her. And I will never doubt her again. I just hope I get the chance to tell her that.

Jack: [ Sighs ]

Chelsea: I don't even know how to say I'm sorry for this.

Adam: [ Sighs ] It's okay.

Chelsea: It's not okay.

[ Sniffles ] It's not okay. We are in danger because of my lies.

Adam: What lies?

Chelsea: This is all about calvin's money. I thought that I could handle it, but...

Adam: [ Sighs ] Look, I don't blame you, okay? I do understand that it is not possible to tell the truth all of the time. And you are not responsible for anything this lunatic has done.

Chelsea: I swear, if we get out of here, I promise, no more lying.

Adam: No, no, no, no, no. Not "if." When. I am gonna get you and connor out of here. Whatever it takes.

Simon: All right, enough with the stalling, chief. You have 30 minutes to get everything arranged, or people start dying. Starting with this adorable little boy I'm looking at right now.

[ Connor whimpers ] Is skincare from around the world

"The young and the restless"

will continue.

Chance: Do you have an elevator-override key?

Phyllis: Yes. Are you gonna tell me what you're gonna do? I mean, for real?

Chance: I need you to be my eyes, okay? You are the only one that can see this lobby. Can you do that for me?

Phyllis: Yes. But is that the best way to go about it?

Chance: We don't have many options right now. I am going to call you when I need you. Do not call me, and do not leave this room. Do you understand?

Phyllis: I do. No problem.

Chance: You can do this. And don't do anything brave or stupid.

Phyllis: I'll leave that to you.

Cane: Okay. What's wrong?

Amanda: There are cops out there at a safe distance.

Cane: Well, that's good. That means everything's under control.

Amanda: Yeah, if it's under control, then we can leave here under our own steam. But...it's still gonna be news. Media trucks are gonna pull up out front.

[ Sighs ] News choppers are gonna circle overhead. And they are gonna want information from every person within a five-mile radius.

Cane: Okay. And, basically, you don't want anyone to know you're here, right?

Amanda: People are entitled to their privacy.

Cane: Sure. Sure. You know devon did a search for you on the web and didn't find anything?

Amanda: Yeah, that's because nobody deserves a piece of me that I don't want them to have.

Cane: Mm.

Amanda: Pictures of my vacation, my favorite cupcake place. I don't live my life for public consumption.

Cane: Listen, I'm not judging you, okay. When I came to genoa city, I did it to start over -- you know, new name, new life. But let me tell you this -- the old one is gonna catch up with you.

Amanda: I was right before. No talking. It's much better.

Cane: Heh... okay. Okay, fine. We, uh... we won't talk. We'll just... we'll just stand here.

Amanda: I just really want to get out of this alive.

Paul: Simon wants a car to take him to the airstrip where a private jet is waiting for him plus one.

Rey: All right. Who is he taking with him?

Paul: Doesn't matter. We can't let him get that far.

Nick: He is gonna take chelsea or connor, and I'm gonna lose them again. If you don't stop him from doing this, I will!

Paul: Nick, I need you to calm down. I understand that you're worried and -- and very concerned. You want to help the people you love.

Rey: But any overreaction is just gonna make things worse, man.

Paul: Nick, I have dealt with a lot of these situations, and a lot of people just like simon black. I assure you that we have a plan. So, please, just let us do our jobs.

Simon: I suspect the authorities are working out the details of our departure. Shouldn't be long now.

Adam: Oh, that is so reassuring.

Chelsea: Let -- let connor just wait over here with me, please.

Simon: Oh, no. I don't think so. I've -- I've grown quite fond of the boy. I think he's warming up to me, too. Aren't you, buddy? Come on, here. Sit here.

Adam: Connor, everything's all right, okay? It's gonna be fine. Nod. Nod if you hear me. Connor?

[ Sighs ] Look, we need to talk.

Simon: Whoa. The time for talking is over.

Adam: But you don't know what I have to say.

Chance: [ Breathing heavily ]

Simon: You have one minute.

Adam: Okay. Look. [ Clears throat ] I want to remove my son from this situation.

Simon: He's the best leverage I have.

Adam: Well, he's also a much bigger risk.

Simon: How so?

Adam: Because he's a child. He's my child. And if you harm one hair on his head, there's only one possible outcome for you. And you don't want that.

Simon: True. Harming that child is the worst-case scenario.

Adam: Okay. So you'd take me instead? I'm higher profile, and I have unlimited resources. And I know how to get away with a crime. Look, this isn't my first rodeo...

Adam: Look, I can get you things that the police can't even imagine. They're small-minded little civil servants. And I'm me.

Simon: A rich kid with an infamous father?

Adam: Mnh-mnh. No. I'm a multimillionaire with questionable ethics. And I do have connections on both sides of the law.

Simon: Go on.

Adam: You know, sometimes i wear the white hat. Sometimes the black. So that make me an expert at eluding the authorities. I mean, I've disappeared from the face of the earth more than once. And those are skills I'd be happy to pass along to you look, here's what I'm saying is, you walk out of here -- walk out here with that gun at my side, and I will give you a whole new life. Whatever that is is up to you. You want to be a king? You want to live in the amazon in a remote village? You know, you want to run a business anonymously from the top of a skyscraper in tokyo? Do it. Because I can give you more money, freedom, and adventure than you ever thought possible.

Simon: [ Chuckles ]

[ Cellphone rings ]

Phyllis: [ Gasps ] Chance, are you okay?

Chance: I need to know exactly where everyone is right now.

Phyllis: Okay. Adam is talking to simon, uh, at the fireplace chairs, on the pool-table side, and chelsea is sitting with connor a few feet away from them, and abby is behind the bar.

Nick: Tell me something. Tell me anything.

Rey: We're moving in now.

Nick: Are you sure that's the right thing to do? What if something goes wrong? What if the guy panics?

Paul: It's not gonna go wrong, nick. You've got to trust us. Let's roll.

Nick: [ Exhales deeply ]

Jack: Nick? Nick!

[ Sighs ]

Simon: Well, well. That is a very interesting scenario.

Adam: Oh, and there's more.

Simon: Well, mr. Newman, I've heard what you have to say. You paint a very pretty picture.

Adam: Yes, and I -- and I can make that come to life.

Simon: [ Chuckles ] You're an even better liar than chelsea.

Adam: No, no. I am not lying. I'm not lying. There's any amount of people that can vouch for what I'm saying.

Abby: It's true.

Adam: Uh-huh.

Abby: H-he can pull off everything that he's claiming.

Adam: See?

Simon: Well, perhaps. But, again, the timing is unfortunate. There's no way we would make it past the battalion of fed and cops and what I'm guessing by now, a swat team.

Adam: [ Huffs ]

Simon: No, my best bet is -- is to deal with the authorities. At the very least, they'll deliver connor and me to the plane safely. We'll go on a little trip.

Adam: No, no, no!

Chelsea: Oh, no, no, no!

Simon: And when we're far enough away --

Chelsea: There has to be another way, please!

Adam: I will give you ten times as much money if you do not take connor --

Simon: Stop it! I am tired of the pleading and the empty promises! I have said what is going to happen, exactly what's going to happen. I am done talking.

Adam: No, I am not through --

[ Abby screams ] Wait! Just wait!

Abby: Stop! Stop! Stop! I can't take it anymore! Stop!

[ Breathing heavily ] Please, please! Please don't do this! Please! He's just a little boy! Please, you have to let us go! Please let us go! Don't do this! Please don't do this! You have to let us go! Please!

Phyllis: Now! Now, chance! Now!

Abby: Please don't do this! Please --

Chelsea: Run! Run!

Chance: [ Breathing heavily ]

[ Adam coughs ] We're all clear. They can come on in. You okay?

Nick: Hey.

Abby: Hey. Chelsea?

Chelsea: Hey.

Nick: Hey. Hey, connor.

Adam: Come here. Yeah. It's okay. All right? It's okay.
