Jack: You're early!

Ashley: Hey!

Jack: Don't move. Just stand there. Let me look at you. I have missed you two so much.

Ashley: Come here! Ooh, oh! It's good to be home.

Traci: I second that.

Jack: So how was the flight?

Ashley: From paris to new york, very productive.

Traci: And then from new york to genoa city, not one bit of work got done.

Ashley: No, we had a lot to catch up on.

Traci: We did.

Ashley: Thanks for sending the jet.

Jack: Hey, I couldn't wait for you to meet my new grandson.

Traci: Oh, tell me again -- tell me, how old is he?

Jack: Oh, he would tell you with two hands.

Ashley: Aww. [ Laughs ]

Traci: They're so precious at that age.

Ashley: I can't wait to meet him.

Traci: Yeah.

Ashley: And tara, too. From what I've heard, she's very impressive.

Jack: Yeah, and very charming. You'll hit it off with her right away.

Traci: Well, I intend to spend some time with kyle because he was strong and brave on the phone, but I could tell he's just suffering.

Jack: He's devastated.

Ashley: It's such a shame.

Traci: It is a shame. My heart is breaking for him when he told me the news.

Ashley: I don't understand. I thought that kyle and summer were so happy. I thought this time it's gonna work out for them.

Kyle: So did I.

Chelsea: Oh, connor! It is so good to see you!

Connor: I've missed you, mom.

Chelsea: I've missed you, too, sweetheart.

[ Sighs ] More than you know.

[ Chuckles ] I love you so much, more than anything in this world, and i hope you never forget that.

Connor: Are you still sick? How much longer will you be in the hospital?

Chelsea: Um, you know, it's -- it's kind of hard to say. Um, but I'm hoping -- I'm hoping to be home soon.

[ Chuckles ] The good news is I am getting better by the day. And [Sighs] Seeing you is the best medicine of all.

Nina: Hi. I'm so sorry I'm late.

Lily: No, it's fine.

Nina: I was dealing with something on the home front.

Lily: Oh, everything okay?

Nina: Yeah, well, mariah took off for a business trip, but no one's been able to reach her, but I'm sure she's just tied up with work or forgot her phone charger or whatever.

Lily: Well, still, I mean, it'd be nice to hear back.

Nina: Exactly. So, I was pleasantly surprised to get your call so soon after our last meeting. I know that chanccomm's been really busy with the locke divorce saga.

Lily: Yes, we have.

Nina: Any chance that that's the project you wanted to talk to me about?

Kyle: Don't worry, it's okay. I'm fine. I' move rward.

Traci: Of course you will, because you're strong and you're resourceful.

Kyle: Thanks, aunt traci.

Ashley: I am so mystified as to why summer would do this.

Jack: Well, this isn't the first time, you know. I mean, she has broken engagements before.

Kyle: Mm, first time she's run off to another continent. I begged her to stay to try to make it work, but summer said she wasn't ready to be a stepmother or deal with the situation, and some people weren't making it easier.

Billy: I gave both you and tara a head's up about the article. Tara decided to speak with me on the record. Every major media outlet was gonna cover this story, kyle. We couldn't just sit on the sidelines.

Kyle: Yeah, well, you went too far. Harrison's paternity, victoria's relationship with ashland.

Billy: Well, that was gonna come out soon enough, so actually, I thought we did a good thing by handling it in a respectful manner.

Ashley: Yeah, and what about the rumors of ashland's illness? Was that really necessary?

Traci: And is it true? Is that little boy gonna lose the father who raised him?

Jack: Whatever is or isn't happening with ashland, my focus is still the same -- provide stability for harrison. Look, parents's divorce, a new father, moving to genoa city -- these are all devastating changes for a little boy. I just think we ought to put everything aside and open our hearts to him.

Kyle: We have to. Harrison's the priority. Which means nothing that happens inside these walls ends up in an article. If you're not willing to agree to that, there's the door.

Billy: No, that's a line i won't cross, so you have my word.

Tara: Hello, hello.

Jack: Hey, look who's here!

Tara: The man of the hour.

Ashley: Hi!

Tara: The guy everyone wants to meet.

Kyle: Hey, buddy. These are your aunts -- ashley and traci.

Traci: Hi, sweetie.

Ashley: Hi.

Kyle: That's your uncle billy. They're all here because they want to welcome you into the family.

Harrison: Hi.

Traci: Oh, hello.

[ Laughs ]

Ashley: [ Chuckles ]

Nick: Alright, let's toast.

Summer: Ooh, okay. To a very successful shopping excursion on the corso venezia.

Nick: Hear, hear. Although we were supposed to be shopping for you, not me.

Summer: Mm-hmm.

Nick: Although gonna have to up my game now that my daughter's the creative director of a renowned fashion house.

Summer: [ Chuckles ] Well, your closet was in much more desperate straits than mine.

Nick: That is true.

Summer: Mm-hmm. And besides, you fly back to the states tomorrow, whereas I can buy out all the stores here at my leisure. Hey, I know I keep saying it -- thank you, really, for coming out here and helping me get settled. It made the transition a lot easier. And not to mention how much fun we had sight-seeing together.

Nick: And tomorrow, I get to go see noah in london. I mean, if you, you know, hadn't decided to relocate over here, it wouldn't have given me a reason to come, so...

Summer: Um, okay. So, dad, um, as great as you have been, um, I think that it's time to come clean.

Nick: What are you talking about?

Summer: I know that you've been keeping something from me, and I think we better deal with it now before you go. Do you struggle with occasional nerve aches,

Lily: This meeting has nothing to do with the lockes. Billy and his team are handling that.

Nina: Alright, I got you. Just so you know, I'll be reading everything that you publish on that.

Lily: Mm-hmm. It's gonna have all the ingredients to capture an audience -- a titan of industry's messy divorce, the implications on his business empire.

Nina: And there's a human side to this, too. Ashland locke is an icon, no doubt, but he's also the father of a young boy. The stakes are high for that little family and for kyle abbott. Not to mention victoria's involvement. I'm sure billy has some thoughts on that, since his children could be affected.

Lily: Yeah, that's exactly right. So, the reason for this get-together...

Nina: Yes, I'm all ears.

Lily: Well, what you were just talking about right now, about focusing on the human side of the story, I think that makes you perfect for what I have in mind.

Billy: You know, harrison, you and I have met once already. I ran into you and your father at the coffee shop having a cookie. It's really good to see you again.

Ashley: Your fox looks so well-loved. Does he have a name?

Tara: That's zippy.

Ashley: Zippy? I like that. Is he your favorite?

Harrison: Yes.

Ashley: I think it's great to have a special friend like that. I used to have a favorite doll when I was your age.

Jack: Esmerelda.

Ashley: How do you remember that?

Jack: How could I ever forget esmerelda?

Ashley: Okay, alright. Well, everywhere I went, esmerelda went.

Kyle: Oh, just like zippy.

Traci: Do you like staying here, harrison?

Harrison: Yes.

Traci: Oh, good.

[ Laughter ]

Jack: Well, we all love having you here.

Harrison: I took all these pieces off.

Kyle: Yeah, good job. You see, he's brought a lot of sunshine in this home.

Harrison: Whoa, I took it. I took it off. Mm.

Nick: So, you think I'm hiding something from you.

Summer: Yeah, the chanccomm article about the lockes' divorce and kyle's affair with tara. Did you really think I wasn't gonna see that?

Nick: I, uh -- I guess I was hoping there was too much going on.

Summer: Well, wasn't the first article written about it, and it definitely won't be the last. Frankly, I'm just grateful to be thousands of miles away from all that drama.

Nick: Yeah, I'm just floored at how well you're handling all this.

Summer: I don't know, I guess reading that story just kind of -- you know, it was proof that I was right to leave when I did. Even though breaking up with kyle was really, really hard, it was better to do it now than in a couple months when we were married and I had already bonded with harrison.

Nick: And you're absolutely sure that the marriage wouldn't have worked? You don't have any second thoughts about ending things?

Summer: When I faced the reality of where we were headed, I realized I didn't really have a choice. You know, it was painful, but i did what was best for everybody. Okay, look, I didn't fall apart when we left home, I didn't fall apart when I read that article, so would you just stop worrying and wondering if I have any secret regrets? I mean, can't you just believe me when I tell you that I'm gonna be fine?

Connor: I was wide open. Tommy passed me the ball, and i didn't even have to think about it. Just kicked it right into the goal.

Chelsea: Yeah! Well, they call that muscle memory, you know. It's like you go on autopilot, where you're so experienced and well prepared, your body already knows what to do.

Connor: Cool.

Adam: Yeah, connor's coach e-mailed me and said he has really improved this year.

Chelsea: Oh, I bet he has. I wish I could watch you play.

Connor: Me, too.

Adam: Well, hey, I think i could help with that. I have a ball in the car. Do you want to kick it around a bit?

Connor: Mom, too?

Chelsea: I'd love to.

Adam: I don't see why not.

Connor: Awesome!

Chelsea: [ Laughs ]

Adam: Hey, it's hot out here. Do you want to go grab us some cold drinks from that vendor over there? You still got some of that money I gave you this morning?

Connor: Yep, be right back.

Adam: Alright.

Chelsea: [ Sighs ] Thank you. This is everything I needed. After our last conversation, i didn't expect you to make it happen.

Adam: Well, I didn't either, until rey walked in to the coffee house and said that he had ran into you in the park and you seemed to be doing well.

Chelsea: Rey convinced you to change your mind?

Adam: Mm, he played a role in my decision. Connor overheard us and he was desperate to see his mother.

Chelsea: I'm grateful that you came around.

[ Sighs ] And I hope you can see I'm not a threat. The only thing I am living for is getting out of that place and having connor back in my life again.

Adam: I understand.

Chelsea: All of our cards are on the table, adam. This ends here. No more threats, no more games. So, if you can just try to convince victor of that, for connor's sake.

Adam: I already spoke to victor.

Chelsea: And?

Adam: He's talking with your attorneys. He's setting things in motion for your release.

Chelsea: [ Chuckles ] Really?

[ Chuckles ] Wh-- [ Laughs ] Finally, I'm getting my life back.

Adam: Yeah. As long as you continue to play by the rules and you do your outpatient therapy and whatever else the court requires.

Chelsea: I will.

[ Chuckles ] I will. I swear it.

[ Sighs ]

Nick: Well, I'm your dad, and that means I'm never gonna stop worrying about you. And I will do whatever it takes to protect you. I don't care how old you are. I just want to see you happy.

Summer: I know. I know. You've always been there for me, even when I am driving you insane.

[ Both laugh ]

Nick: You have always marched to your own drummer, just like your mother. I can't help but think about that time you came back to genoa city, driving a stolen sports car and you had burned through your entire trust fund.

Summer: [ Laughs ] God, why are you reminiscing on a very, very low point in my life?

Nick: I am just marveling at how far you've come in such a short period of time. And now you're taking this bold new step. You're moving to europe. You've got this incredible job, which you earned, because of your talent and all your hard work. I'm basically in awe of you.

Summer: [ Scoffs ] Geez, you don't have to go overboard.

Nick: [ Chuckles ] I'm just speaking the truth.

Summer: [ Sighs ]

Nick: And you know there isn't anything that I won't do for you. All you have to do is ask. You know that, right?

Summer: Well, there actually is one thing.

Nick: Name it.

Summer: Please, when you go back to genoa city, please don't be too hard on kyle. Okay, he did nothing wrong, and I -- I just want him to find as much happiness in his future as I'm sure that I'll find in mine. Promise me?

Nick: I promise.

Billy: Harrison, jack was telling me that you like to play catch in the backyard. I would love for you to show me some pointers. What do you say?

Harrison: Okay.

Billy: Okay, good. That's a plan.

Traci: [ Chuckles ]

Kyle: Hey, guess what -- it's that time again.

Harrison: Ahh, muffin time!

[ Laughter ]

Ashley: Did mrs. Martinez make something wonderful?

Kyle: She made her famous blueberry muffins.

Traci: Yummy. You go ahead. You enjoy, and we're gonna be right here waiting for you when you get done, okay?

Kyle: Let's go. Come on.

Ashley: Bye.

Kyle: Come on, come on.

Traci: See you soon.

Ashley: Muffin time.

Kyle: Come on. Let's go!

Tara: I am sure that kyle wants harrison to spend more time with you guys.

Ashley: Please, you don't have to explain anything. He's adorable. We don't want to overwhelm him.

Traci: Yeah, I think he's done really well. He's utterly charming.

Billy: He's very, very sweet. I'm sure you're proud of him.

Tara: I am. Thank you.

Billy: So, kyle told me how he felt about the article. Feel free to let me have it, if you'd like.

Tara: Um, obviously, I'd prefer if my personal life weren't splashed all over the internet, but I understand that ashland is a public figure, which means I am too, by extension. However, my little boy is not.

Jack: Excellent point.

Tara: In the future, I hope that you'll exercise restraint when it comes to anything pertaining to my son.

Billy: I will.

Ashley: Well, I've really enjoyed chatting with harrison, but I'd like to get to know you.

Traci: Me, too.

Jack: No pressure.

Tara: It's fine. I'm an open book. What would you like to know? I've lost count of how many asthma attacks I've had.

Chelsea: Ohh. Thanks for letting me kick the ball around with you guys. I wanted to be part of the moment, even if I was terrible.

Adam: You were not terrible. You had some moves.

Chelsea: Mm. Oh, thanks. That's one way to put it.

Adam: Nah, connor enjoyed the effort.

Chelsea: [ Sighs ] Well...that was the most fun I've had in a really long time. I know what you're thinking. The three of us being together like this reminds you of the way things used to be. But things will never be the same between you and me.

Adam: Yeah, there's no going back, chelsea. But I don't want us to be enemies. I want us to be the best two parents that connor could possibly have.

Chelsea: He'll always be the best thing that's ever happened to both of us.

Adam: Well, you got that right.

Chelsea: [ Sighs ] I lost months with him, adam. Months I'm never gonna get back. I mean, before we know it, he's gonna be all grown up.

Adam: Hope that doesn't happen too soon.

Chelsea: From now on, I need to spend as much time as possible with my son.

Adam: Well, I'm enjoying some quality time with our son, as well.

Chelsea: Of course, but, i mean, he's -- he's getting to stay with you and your family.

Adam: So we will discuss arrangements as the need arises. Is that a problem?

Chelsea: Not at all.

[ Sighs ]

Tara: My parents are both gone.

Ashley: I'm so sorry.

Tara: Thank you. It's been a while since they passed, but somehow I'm still not used to it.

Traci: I find that it's something you never get used to.

Ashley: Do you have any siblings?

Tara: A brother -- shane. He's a few years younger.

Traci: Are you two close?

Tara: Oh, I wish I could say yes.

Billy: So not a lot of family?

Tara: It's been a bit lonely over the years. Even when ashland and I were in a good place, he was away a lot, traveling for business. Thank god I had harrison. He is everything to me.

Jack: Well, you're not hurting for extended family now.

Billy: Even if we are a little challenging.

Tara: Well, you're all here together because family means so much to you.

Ashley: Yeah, well, we're far from perfect.

Tara: I know a fair bit about the abbotts because jack gave me a copy of the family history you wrote. What a fantastic read.

Traci: Thank you. I'm glad you enjoyed it.

Tara: My main takeaway is that harrison is extremely lucky to be a part of the abbott legacy. Oh, I'm laying it on a bit thick, aren't I? But I's true. I mean, despite your issues, your love and loyalty came through on every page.

Traci: Thank you.

Ashley: Well, enough about the past. How about the future? Do you have any plans?

Tara: Oh, well, I am putting down roots here in genoa city so that kyle and harrison can continue to bond. Fortunately, ashland has agreed to joint custody, and he is okay with kyle's involvement, so that's a blessing, too.

Billy: What about a career?

Tara: Oh, well, I'm working with lauren to market my shoe line to the american market. It's not very well known outside of france.

Ashley: Well, count me in as one of your biggest american fans. I bought a couple pairs of your shoes when I was in paris.

Tara: Did you?

Ashley: Yeah.

Tara: Oh, wow, that is an amazing compliment. I mean, it means so much to me that I make a name for myself, get known for my work and not just the soon-to-be-ex mrs. Ashland locke.

Traci: It is very important to have an identity beyond your name.

Billy: Coming from the world-famous author who leaves us all in the dust.

[ Laughter ]

Traci: Hardly, "boss."

Billy: Well.

Tara: Still, my most important role is harrison's mom. And on that note, I am gonna go check on him, so if you'll excuse me, please.

Jack: She's something, isn't she?

Billy: Yeah, I was thinking the same thing.

Summer: [ Sighs ] Well, I hate to say it, but it is getting late and I got to get ready for tomorrow.

Nick: I guess this is it.

Summer: Yeah. I'm gonna miss you, dad.

Nick: I'm gonna miss you so much. Your mom and I, we just want to see you soar.

Summer: I'm gonna make you guys so proud.

[ Chuckles ] I love you.

Nick: I love you more.

Arrivederci. You know what that means, right?

Summer: "Until we meet again."

Nick: You got it, beautiful. If you need anyone to eat ice cream with, make sure I'm your first phone call, alright? I'll fly over here in a second.

Summer: [ Sighs ] I love you, dad.

Nick: I love you.

Summer: [ Sighs ] Okay. Bye.

Nick: [ Sighs ]

[ Sighs ] Ok everyone, our mission is to provide complete,

"The young and the restless"

will continue. What's the #1 retinol brand

Lily: Great, I'll wait to hear back from you. Thanks, bye. Sorry about that.

Nina: Oh, no, not a problem at all. But please don't keep me in suspense.

Lily: [ Chuckles ]

Nina: What were you about to propose?

Lily: Well, last time we spoke, we talked about you doing a short-term project, one that would draw on your research skills and connections and your strength at characterization.

Nina: So far, so good.

Lily: Well, billy and I would like you to do a series of feature stories that would focus on the old guard versus the new guard in the business world.

Nina: Okay, first reaction -- damn, I wish I had thought of that.

Lily: [ Chuckles ]

Nina: That's a brilliant concept, lily.

Lily: Thank you.

Nina: I could really do a deep dive on this.

Lily: Well, I mean, that's the idea. So...are you in?

Nina: I am so in.

Lily: Great. Cheers.

[ Chuckles ]

Chelsea: What do you two have planned for the rest of the day?

Connor: Faith offered to give me a riding lesson.

Chelsea: Oh, that's right, you and your dad are staying at the ranch. You're gonna have so much fun.

Adam: Well, we should probably get going.

Connor: Will I get to see mom again?

Adam: Mm-hmm, absolutely.

Chelsea: Connor, I don't want you to worry. Everything's gonna be fine. I promise.

Connor: Okay.

Chelsea: Come here. Ohh.

[ Sighs ] Okay. Bye for now.

Adam: I'll be in touch. Come on, bud.

Chelsea: [ Sighs ]

Jack: It is delightful to have this young life under this old roof. I'm telling you, the next generation is here in the abbott house.

Traci: And when abby and chance's baby is born, not one but two of my siblings are going to be grandparents.

[ Laughter ]

Ashley: You know what? It used to make me feel kind of old when I thought about being a grandmother, but now I can't wait.

Jack: Oh, grandkids make you young, I'm telling you.

Ashley: Alright, okay.

Billy: How is abby? I haven't talked to her in a while. How's the pregnancy going?

Ashley: It's going pretty well, I think. She's trying really hard not to hover too much over mariah. Although it kind of threw her when mariah took off so suddenly for work.

Jack: Yeah, she called me to ask where she was.

Ashley: Yeah. Were you able to tell her?

Jack: Well, I told her mariah doesn't have to run her trips by me, though I'm guessing she's just tying up loose ends. She can't fly too much longer, i don't think. Still, I'll check into it.

Ashley: Okay. I'd like to know.

Billy: You're not worried, are you?

Ashley: I don't think there's anything to be worried about, per se. I mean, mariah's been nothing but responsible since this whole process started.

Traci: You know, all these new faces in the abbott family, this is giving me an idea. Billy, what would you think about a family division of chanccomm's fiction platform? I mean, I could talk to harrison about his favorite books and reach out to those authors, maybe. Your kids, too, and then maybe we could have a family book club.

Billy: I think that's great. I think you should go for it.

Traci: Really?

Billy: Yeah, of course.

Traci: You're interested?

Billy: I'm always interested in what you have to say. Plus, anything to widen our audience.

Traci: Oh, that's fantastic. I'll give it more thought.

Billy: Good.

Kyle: I am here with a very important request. Harrison is going out back to play, and he wanted to know if you'd like to join him.

Ashley: Ohh, how sweet.

Traci: I would love to.

Jack: Well, you don't have to ask me twice.

Kyle: Billy?

Billy: I actually have to run, but I appreciate the -- the offer.

Kyle: So three yeses and a pass.

Billy: I would really love to bring the kids by, though, and have them meet harrison. I think they'd all have a really good time.

Kyle: I'm sure harrison would like that.

Billy: Consider it a date.

Jack: Excellent.

Ashley: Okay, well, we can't keep our grand-nephew waiting, right?

Traci: Billy, see you soon. Nice to see you.

Billy: Bye, ash. Uh, kyle. Before I take off, do you have a second?

[ Cellphone rings ]

Nick: Hey.

Phyllis: How's everything?

Nick: Uh... [ Sighs ] Well, summer just took off. We had a great time exploring the city. But I'm sad. I, uh, hated watching her go.

[ Knock on door ] Hold on. Someone's at the door.

Phyllis: Buona sera, baby. There are times, I wonder...

Phyllis: So summer knows I'm here. I just needed to tell her i didn't -- cheers.

Nick: Cheers.

Phyllis: I didn't want her to think that I was here to persuade her to come back home.

Nick: She never would've stood for that.

Phyllis: Yeah. Anyway, I saw her in the lobby. We're gonna get together for breakfast before she goes to work.

Nick: Alright.

Phyllis: So, tonight... is about us. Do you like my surprise?

Nick: I love your surprise.

Phyllis: [ Chuckles ]

Nick: It's wildly romantic.

Phyllis: You should continue with those thoughts.

Nick: Which part? The "wild" part or the "romantic"?

Phyllis: Both. Both.

Nick: I guess I could multi-task.

Phyllis: Well, you're good at multi-tasking.

Kyle: Yeah, make it quick, unless it's an apology about the article -- in that case, take as long as you want.

Billy: It's got nothing to do with the article. This is about a promise I made summer, concerning you.

Kyle: What are you talking about?

Billy: Before she left for italy, she asked me to be a friend to you when you needed it.

Kyle: She asked you to do that?

Billy: Trust me, I was just as surprised. But it happened, so...

Kyle: So thanks, but no thanks.

Billy: Look, kyle, she was worried about what was gonna happen to you after she left.

Kyle: Look, I don't want to get into this, especially with you. Summer made her decision. Now I've got to move on with my life.

Billy: Well, you should be careful about how you do that.

Kyle: Excuse me?

Billy: Look, man, you're in the middle of a storm, okay? And I'm sure you're all twisted up. I get that. And tara, she's probably a little lonely right now, looking to connect.

Kyle: No, no, no, no, you don't know what you're talking about. Want to be my friend? Stay the hell out of my business.

Tyler: We should be getting back to the hospital.

Chelsea: Can we stay just a little bit longer? Oh, the weather's so perfect and it's so lovely out and I haven't been able to spend time outside in such a long time.

Tyler: Ah, I suppose we can wait a few more minutes.

Chelsea: Thank you. I really appreciate it.

[ Sighs ]

Adam: Chelsea.

Chelsea: What's going on? Where's connor?

Adam: He is playing with the other kids again. I, uh -- I need to speak with you privately.

Chelsea: About what?

Adam: I just got off the phone with anita.

Chelsea: My mom called you? Why?

Adam: She tried to contact you, but couldn't reach you, so she called me.

Chelsea: Is everything okay?

Adam: She's in the hospital with a broken hip.

Chelsea: No. Oh, my god! Is it bad?

Adam: Oh, evidently, there's no reason to be scared, but she is gonna have to have surgery. I don't know more details 'cause the nurse showed up and she had to hang up. But she does want you to come and help her while she's recovering. She's hoping that the doctor and the judge will allow it.

Chelsea: Yeah, I mean, I hope so. Mom doesn't have anybody else.

Adam: Chelsea, did you concoct this whole thing with your mother?

Nina: Hi, abby. I thought I'd check in. My meeting with lily went very well. Thank you for asking. I was just going over some ideas and lost track of time. Has mariah checked in yet? Oh. Well, there still could be a very reasonable explanation. Let's just hope she calls us soon.

Phyllis: That was worth the 10-hour plane ride.

Nick: Mm, 10 hours? You made good time.

Phyllis: A tailwind.

Nick: Mm. You know what I'm gonna do?

Phyllis: What?

Nick: I'm gonna text noah and tell him that we're gonna spend an extra day in milan. Then I'll meet up with him after that.

Phyllis: I love that.

Nick: Yeah. Explore the city.

Phyllis: Driving in, it was really beautiful. I understand why summer wants to be here.

[ Sighs ] She's gonna be happy, right? Right?

Nick: I think she's very excited about her future, but underneath it all, there's a twinge of sadness.

Phyllis: Yeah, 'cause of kyle. I mean, you know and I know there's more to this story. Why she left kyle and genoa city so abruptly.

Jack: That was fun.

Traci: Wasn't it?

[ Laughs ]

Ashley: Harrison, you are so much fun.

Tara: He is the best at tag. He catches his daddy every time.

Kyle: He does. I can never escape.

Jack: When I was his age, dad was so busy building jabot, it's amazing he had the time to always play in the backyard with me. And then when you were a kid, i treasured your every visit and we'd play out back. And now I'm gonna get to build memories like that with my grandson.

Tara: I just want to take a moment to thank you all for such a special day. Making harrison and I feel like part of your family. I know he won't forget it. Neither will I.

Billy: The outrage over the article on the locke divorce was kept to a minimum. That was good. Everything went according to plan. We all got to know tara better and harrison. Very sweet boy. His mother, on the other hand...

Lily: Not so sweet?

Billy: Mm. No, on the contrary. She was very, very sweet. Really turned on the charm.

Lily: Well, the way you say that...

Billy: She's good. Really good. In fact, I think there's more going on with her than anyone else knows.

Lily: Okay, billy, I trust your instincts.

Billy: But?

Lily: This situation is complicated. Tara is not a stranger. I mean, she and kyle have a history together. They have a child.

Billy: I understand all that. I'm just saying she made herself feel at home very quickly, like record time.

Lily: You told kyle that, didn't you?

Billy: I have to watch out for the guy.

Lily: Uh-huh.

Billy: Hey, I told summer that I would watch out for kyle, okay? And not just where tara is concerned, but in other aspects of his life, too. When he needs me, I need to be there for him.

Lily: And kyle told you to butt out?

Billy: Yeah.

Lily: Okay, look, I know that you mean well, but he's right. It's none of your business.

Billy: But what if it is?

Lily: Okay, billy, just let it go.

Chelsea: I can understand why you'd ask me that, but, no. My mother's predicament is not part of some nefarious plot. I'm as shocked by that phone call as you are, and I assume you called the hospital to confirm her story.

Adam: Hmm. And anita had conveniently granted them permission to give her medical status to me.

Chelsea: So what's the issue? I mean, my mom is a pro, but to con an entire hospital? Come on, adam. She didn't break her hip on purpose.

Adam: Oh, I wouldn't put that past her. Chelsea, come on, just tell me the truth. Is this your back-up plan if victor would not agree to get you released?

Chelsea: No, adam, I swear it wasn'T.

[ Sighs ] Look, I know the timing seems suspect, but sometimes a coincidence is really just a coincidence. And I'm worried about my mom. I mean, a broken hip? That's nothing to mess around with. She's gonna need tons of physical therapy. She's not gonna be able to be alone. I want to go take care of her. You can understand that, can't you? Can you -- can you just talk to victor one more time? Ask him to do whatever he can to get me released? I'll wear an ankle monitor. They can send an orderly with me. I'll do whatever it takes. And naturally, if I'm allowed to go...I want to bring connor with me.

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

Sharon: [ Gasps ] Chelsea, oh, my god. You scared me half to death.

Ashland: Victoria and I are making an announcement in the morning. Something of a personal and business nature.

Victor: You are coo of that company. That means you must have known about this. And yet, you told me nothing.
