00:00It looks like you hit the ground running your first day back.
00:20Like I had a choice hospital didn't hit pause just because I was temporarily suspended.
00:27I am thrilled to be back.
00:29I'll bet.
00:30Well, welcome back.
00:32Nurse Weber.
00:34Oh, thank you.
00:37You do know it's nurse Baldwin.
00:40You've always been nurse Weber to me.
00:45Cody, thank you for coming.
00:47Oh, yeah, yeah.
00:48Hi, Felicia.
00:50I mean, it's always great to see you.
00:52I appreciate the invitation.
00:54But what's the occasion?
00:57Well, no occasion, an opportunity.
01:02You've been messing up big time, Cody.
01:04And there is someone you owe an apology.
01:08Well, I hope you saved some of those for me.
01:10Christina!
01:11Hi.
01:13Okay, come on.
01:14They're going to get cold.
01:17Okay.
01:18So what's going on here?
01:20Take some time alone.
01:21Yes, I'm sorry to ask, but do you mind taking the girls?
01:24Because there's something that I have to do, and it's kind of now or never.
01:28So why aren't we at the park again?
01:30It's freezing.
01:32Well, I just need to get out of my cramped little apartment and stretch my legs a little.
01:36But I love your apartment.
01:38It has character and good light and good heat.
01:41Yeah, well, yeah, it definitely does because the heat doesn't turn off.
01:44It's like a sauna in there, right?
01:46Wreaking havoc on my skin.
01:51What do you say, Carly?
01:52Will you help me do whatever it takes to protect our grandchildren?
01:57I will do anything to protect Wylie and Amelia.
02:00But what if we wind up making everything worse?
02:04What if we push Drew and Willow closer together?
02:07I mean, I hate to say this, but maybe the best way to beat Drew is just to do nothing.
02:12Fantastic.
02:14I can hardly wait to see you do nothing.
02:20Love, I saw that you moved out of the gatehouse with the kids.
02:25Yeah, I did.
02:27So are you staying with Nina, or have you already moved in with Drew?
02:36Looking for your lady, love?
02:39I just got off a plane, Tracy. I have no idea what you're talking about.
02:42Of course you do. Sasha, your newest baby mama.
02:50Did you really come all the way over here to welcome me on my first day back?
03:11I did. I thought your return was worth celebrating.
03:15These are beautiful, and I cannot thank you enough for all your help dealing with the hospital legal team.
03:22I'm always happy to help you, Elizabeth.
03:25And with that, I just want to let you know that I checked on the terms of Cyrus Renauld's parole status.
03:32Yeah, what'd you find?
03:33It's pretty standard stuff, actually. I mean, Cyrus is considered a paroled felon, and he has to regularly meet with a parole officer.
03:41And if he is in possession of a weapon of any kind, or gets in any violent altercation, he can be remanded back to prison.
03:49Hope that puts your mind at ease a bit.
03:53I don't know about that. What's good info to know?
03:59So, you got a break coming up? Nurse Baldwin? It's a beautiful day. We could take a walk.
04:06Last time we took a walk, we saw Alexis chuck a gun off a bridge, and hilarity did not ensue.
04:12And you blame me for that? Come on. Consider it payment for my legal expertise.
04:19Okay, fine. I do have a break coming up, so I will spend it walking with you.
04:24However, if we happen upon a crime in progress, even if it's somebody jaywalking, come running the other way. Got it?
04:35Got it.
04:42Of course I can take the girls. That's not a problem at all. But if there's something else...
04:46No. No. But if you could take them to the park, that would be great, because Avery has this project, and she needs pinecones.
04:54And I told her we'd go to the park, and then she told Donna, and now all they can think about is going to the park.
04:59You know, it's February, and I'm still in New York.
05:00Exactly.
05:01Yes, they're very excited about pinecones and the park.
05:04Well, I mean, who wouldn't be?
05:06Thank you. I'm working on this project, and I'm covering a call-out here, so...
05:11Hey, I get it. Your mom is completely focused on Michael and his recovery, and with my dad gone, you have to step it up for our little sisters, right?
05:19Yes. You're a lifesaver. Thank you.
05:21Oh, and just a warning, I promised them that they could play on the playground, so...
05:26Ah, wow. These girls have never met a jungle gym they could not conquer.
05:31Yeah. Hey, um, has... has Avery been asking about her mom much? Just with my dad gone and stuff?
05:38Uh, not really. I know that she's speaking to Ava before bedtime every night, but I think that's what they agreed on.
05:45Yeah. I... I wouldn't worry too much about Avery. I think she's fine. She's very excited that Sonny's coming home, so...
05:57Oh, jeez.
06:00Oh! The commercial builder called. I'm sorry. I meant to tell you that earlier.
06:05No, it's okay. Just please tell me that someone is interested in taking that second gallery space off my hands.
06:10No. I'm sorry. It just sounds like the wrong time of year to sell.
06:15Yeah, well, it's definitely the wrong time of year for me to be paying two mortgages.
06:18You know, if I even thought it was possible that the Casadine Estate would take back what is rightfully mine,
06:24I never would have purchased that second building in the first place.
06:26Well, I mean, look, on the bright side, you have a new apartment and a rich new client in Mr. Sidwell, so things could be worse.
06:34Yeah. Yeah, no, you're right about that. I mean, my new apartment definitely has better lighting than a jail cell would have, right?
06:41So things could certainly be worse.
06:43Yes, that's the spirit.
06:44Yeah. And so what about you? I've noticed that you're spending more time at the gallery lately.
06:50I mean, I'm definitely not complaining.
06:52I'm just wondering how you find the time between classes and visiting your friend at the hospital.
06:58Um, I just am.
07:01Yeah.
07:02Yeah. That's the explanation that you're sticking with, huh?
07:06Trina, you were spending hours a day at the hospital and now you're not. Why?
07:12Turns out my being at the hospital wasn't helpful.
07:16You think you were being discreet with that ridiculous tale of Sasha picking up some random guy in a bar?
07:23You can thank your bestie for blowing that story right out of the water.
07:28What does Carly have to do with this?
07:30She confronted Drew about having a tryst with Willow in the gatehouse when he was barred from the property.
07:37And Drew responded by telling the world that you impregnated our cook.
07:43Tracy, why would you believe anything that Drew had to say?
07:49Deny it.
07:51I am staying with Nina, and what I do with my children is my business.
07:57Maybe you should focus on your own.
08:05I know I should have warned you that Cody would be here, but in all fairness, he didn't know you were going to be here either.
08:12Wait, wait, warned? You can't even sit at the same table as me?
08:17No. Right now my baby and I are the talk of the town thanks to you, so forgive me for giving whatever this is a hard pass.
08:24Please don't leave. Sit with us. Please. For me.
08:29So, Carly, we just... we wait? Wait for Drew to move Willow and the kids into his big new house?
08:41I wonder if they'll buy all new furniture.
08:44Well, they'll probably have to, because I doubt Willow will bring anything from the gatehouse.
08:49Oh, and Wiley and Amelia will have to buy new things to make Drew's house feel more like a home.
08:55Do you think that they will call Drew... Daddy Drew? Or just plain Daddy?
09:03Oh, and the wedding's going to be all the top, because Drew's going to make sure of that.
09:07And won't Wiley make the cutest ring bearer?
09:12I get it. Okay? You can stop. We have to do something.
09:16But we have to be smart about this, Nina. Drew cannot see us coming.
09:21Absolutely. On that, I totally agree.
09:29Did your quarterback friend give you reason to think your help wasn't wanted?
09:33I just... I like Kai. And I think he's a good guy. And I feel terrible for him.
09:41His injury really crushed his dreams of going pro.
09:44And on some level, I'm worried that my pushing him on our history project split his focus and is one of the reasons why he got hurt.
09:53Why would you think that?
09:55Because his best friend, who is also on the team, thinks I did and he said so to my face.
09:59That is absurd. You had nothing to do with Kai getting injured.
10:03Football can be a very dangerous sport. Everybody knows that. Especially Kai.
10:08Well, I hope so because my reflex is to try and fix things. And when I went to the hospital to help him, I... I overstepped.
10:17He must have known you meant well.
10:20Well, if he did, it didn't matter because he told me in no uncertain terms to back off. So that is what I'm doing. I'm backing off.
10:27Wait. He... He told you to back off? He should be grateful for your friendship and for your help. What an ingrate.
10:35No. No, no, no. He's not an ingrate. He's just... He's just going through a hard time right now.
10:40And then I tried to make it better and then I ended up making it even harder.
10:45So, I mean... But he wasn't rude or mean in any way, really.
10:49He just told me, like, he just wanted some space. And I respect that. Sometimes you just need to go through things on your own.
10:55Or not.
10:58Maxie is our way into Drew's new house. She's helping him find a decorator or something.
11:04Wow. He is seriously preparing to move Willow and the kids in. Just like that.
11:10I cannot believe I was with someone like that.
11:13Well, you couldn't predict what kind of man Drew would become?
11:17None of us could.
11:19None of us could.
11:21Okay, look. Before we go digging around in his house, I need to know.
11:27How far are you willing to go to get Drew out of the picture?
11:30We're talking about my daughter and my grandchildren. Our grandchildren.
11:35So, to take Drew off the board, I'm willing to go as far as necessary.
11:43I really appreciate you being willing to meet with me.
11:47I know you have a lot going on in your life, especially right now.
11:52But I need to remind you that we still haven't responded to Michael's divorce petition.
11:57Michael's out of the country recovering.
11:59I know. I know.
12:01But Willow, I'm going to ask you the same question I ask all of my clients at this juncture, which is...
12:07Do you really want a divorce?
12:10Or do you want to work towards a reconciliation? Try and save your marriage?
12:15Cody, I think you can acknowledge that you overstepped where Sasha and her pregnancy are concerned.
12:23I'll admit that it wasn't my place to run around town telling people about your pregnancy.
12:30Or sharing your conclusions about who my baby's father is.
12:34I mean, did you stop and think for one second how it might impact me or my job?
12:40You know better than anyone how prickly my relationship with Tracy is.
12:43Yes, which is exactly why I want the father to step up and take responsibility.
12:47Because I know how much it impacts you, and I...
12:50I care about you, Sasha.
12:53I don't have to explain my life to you, Tracy.
12:57I take that as a yes. Sasha's baby is yours.
13:02You know, I'd like to remind you that there are a lot of people in this household that are profoundly affected by your actions.
13:08Your mother and your son, to name two.
13:12Jason, you can stonewall me all you want.
13:16But it's not fair to stonewall them.
13:22I'm going to grab a cup of coffee.
13:26Wow. Look at you.
13:30Not wearing a hospital gown, walking around in nature.
13:33When did you get out of the hospital?
13:35I got out today.
13:36Wow. And out of all the places, you decided to come here, where it's always cold.
13:40It's always cold in the wintertime.
13:42Plus, I had a hunch that you'd be here.
13:44A hunch, huh?
13:45Yeah. Yeah, a hunch.
13:46I get them sometimes, and sometimes I bump into your aunt Stella at G.H.
13:51Yeah, that makes a lot more sense than a hunch.
13:54I'm sorry that she meddled.
13:56No, she didn't meddle.
13:57Look, and however I got here, I'm glad I did because I owe you an apology.
14:02No, you don't. You're entitled to all the time and space that you need.
14:07Yeah, but I'm not entitled to take my problems out on you.
14:10And I'm sorry that I did that.
14:11I get it. Okay, you're going through a lot right now.
14:14Yeah, the last few weeks, I've been consumed by my injury and the pain it's caused.
14:17And I've had all kinds of thoughts running through my mind, night and day, while trying to picture what my future looks like now.
14:23Did you figure it out?
14:26It's more of an in-progress type of thing.
14:28But the only bright spot in any of this was seeing you show up to my room.
14:33Even if you were bossing me around.
14:35Oh, hold on. I don't remember bossing you around.
14:39Even if you were bossing me around.
14:41Oh, hold on. I don't remember bossing you around.
14:44Oh, you don't remember?
14:45No.
14:46Okay, you go with that. But I'm just going to be grateful, really.
14:48I'm grateful that our paths crossed today and in art history.
14:52I hope we can get to know each other better.
14:55I can understand why you're upset.
14:58Cody should have respected your privacy.
15:00But from what I'm hearing, he was misguided and concerned about you because he cares about you.
15:07Does that sound like a fair interpretation?
15:10Yes.
15:12Cody, I don't think you would ever intentionally try to hurt me.
15:16But the way you are showing your concern for me is doing exactly that.
15:23I'm sorry. I just can't let...
15:25No, no. Listen to me. Listen to me.
15:27I am glad that you care.
15:29I care about you too.
15:31But the way you're going about this, it's making me feel like you don't think I can take care of myself and my baby.
15:38You shouldn't have to.
15:39I don't... I want to. That's the point.
15:42I want to raise this baby on my own without having to answer to anybody.
15:47You say that you care about me.
15:49The best way for you to show me that is to respect me and my choices.
15:55Can you do that?
15:58I need to talk to Sasha. Do you know where she is?
16:01Try her room. I'm sure you know where that is.
16:03Oh, wait. I'm wrong.
16:06She said something about taking the afternoon off and meeting Felicia at the Port Charles Grill.
16:12Could you not have found somebody else to sire a child with?
16:16What if she decides to sue?
16:18Are you sure Monica and Danny haven't heard anything about this yet?
16:21To the best of my knowledge, they have not.
16:23So, this is your news to pass on.
16:26So, do me a favor. Pass it on quickly.
16:32Look, Nina. We need to define our goals and, um...
16:37Well, just so we're very clear.
16:39Okay. My goal is to get rid of Drew.
16:42I have no agenda as far as Willow and Michael's future.
16:47I just don't want Drew to be a factor or an obstacle for either of them
16:53while they figure out whatever that future is. Do you understand?
16:56I agree. I agree.
16:58And I believe that Willow and Michael will put the children first.
17:01Whether or not they go through with the divorce, they need to be able to move forward
17:05with the respect of everything that they've shared and meant to each other.
17:10They won't be able to do that with Drew interfering.
17:12And Drew influencing every move that Willow makes.
17:18I know I haven't always been Michael and Willow's biggest supporter,
17:22but I am sad that their marriage blew up the way it did.
17:27Me too.
17:29Drew is the worst thing that ever could happen to Willow.
17:33Her emotions are all over the place, but I do know that she genuinely loved her son.
17:41Michael loved her too.
17:44And their family.
17:47Carly, there's one other variable that needs to be dealt with right away.
17:55And you're the only one who can deal with it.
18:00You know, if you're cold, you can take my scarf.
18:02No, I'm okay. Thanks.
18:05It's actually really nice out.
18:08I just keep thinking about Sam and Dex and all the other patients who were killed at the hospital.
18:15What they would have given to just have one more walk in the park.
18:20One more anything.
18:25Look, just be careful, okay?
18:28Especially now that you're back at the hospital.
18:31I will.
18:33But if our theory is correct and Cyrus is behind all the killings within the hospital,
18:38it's the safest place for me to be because he's been banned from there.
18:43After reading Cyrus's rap sheet, I can tell you that, reformed or not, he's a dangerous man.
18:51Just keep your eyes open, okay?
18:56I promise.
18:58And while I appreciate your concern, I can take care of myself.
19:01Yeah, I know.
19:02I've survived a lot over the past few years.
19:05It's not like I'm doing all of this on my own.
19:08God bless you.
19:14I'm just stopping here on my way to work.
19:17Are you going to refuse me service, Jocelyn?
19:22No.
19:24I'm going to offer you an apology.
19:29It's so fun.
19:31I know.
19:36Girls, let me have those pine cones so that you don't forget them, okay?
19:40Perfect.
19:41I will hold on to them.
19:42Mommy!
19:48Mommy!
19:49Hi, hi.
19:50Oh, I'm so happy to see you.
19:52How are you?
19:53Good.
19:54I'm doing a project for school and Donna's helping.
19:56Wow, that sounds very exciting.
19:58Did you come to the park to see me?
20:00Actually, I came to the park to bring you that hot chocolate.
20:03And there happens to be an extra one for Donna.
20:06Oh, good.
20:07We're in the mood for hot chocolate.
20:08Perfect timing, then.
20:09Oh, hey.
20:10I have a new apartment.
20:12Would you like to go and see it?
20:13Yes!
20:14Let's go.
20:15Oh, sorry, Ava.
20:16Where do you think you're going?
20:17I'm going to spend some time with my daughter.
20:20Mommy's taking me to see her new apartment.
20:23Really?
20:25You accused me of killing your boyfriend, Officer Heller.
20:30You're saying you no longer love him.
20:32You accused me of killing your boyfriend, Officer Heller.
20:35Are you saying you no longer believe them?
20:37I want justice for Dex.
20:40And perhaps that clouded my judgment.
20:43You're an easy target.
20:45But you're not Dex's real killer.
20:48The police don't seem to think so.
20:50And considering I want Dex's actual killer caught,
20:54I'm going to let the professionals handle it.
20:57So I'm sorry.
20:59And I shouldn't have accused you.
21:03I see.
21:05I am quite busy, though.
21:07So can I get you anything?
21:12I've changed my mind.
21:13I really should get to work.
21:16Okay.
21:22Enjoy your afternoon, Chelsea.
21:33I'd like to get to know you better.
21:37And I know that your recovery is a huge change in your life right now.
21:42And I'm going to fight my impulse.
21:46I'm trying to fix things.
21:48And I'm going to let you handle it without my micromanaging it.
21:53I appreciate that.
21:55And I really just appreciate you trying to help me.
21:58Because right now it feels like people only value me when I'm on the football field.
22:03And so if I can't play anymore, I'm not really sure how many people will actually care about me.
22:08About my recovery.
22:10About my future.
22:14There's no chance Michael and I will reconcile.
22:17Our marriage is definitely over.
22:19All right.
22:20Okay.
22:21Good.
22:22That means we proceed with a divorce.
22:24Okay.
22:25Good.
22:26That means we proceed with a divorce.
22:27Which means I am going to file a response to Diane.
22:32And I am recommending we respond as aggressively as they did in their initial complaint.
22:37Which means you have to be ready.
22:39We're going in there guns blazing.
22:41We are asking for full custody, alimony, substantial spousal and child support.
22:46And we have to do this now.
22:47Yeah.
22:48Willow, we do.
22:50I'm sorry.
22:51See, that's the thing.
22:52Your custodial position with the children is not secure.
22:56Now, Michael may be off in a clinic somewhere recovering.
22:59But Diane Miller is not.
23:00And I guarantee it.
23:01She is going to fight on behalf of her client with every weapon in her arsenal.
23:06I am so sorry that I am late.
23:09What did I miss?
23:11Martin's recommending I respond to Michael's divorce request aggressively now.
23:17Are you sure, Martin?
23:19That may make things even messier.
23:25What?
23:26I know you're both new to this whole family is everything concept.
23:31But that's what we are.
23:33We're family.
23:35And in order to stay united, we have to forgive each other.
23:39Can't you both try?
23:43Cody, I, um, I know that you want what's best for me and my baby.
23:50I can, no, I, I do forgive you.
23:57And I'm, I'm sorry for running my mouth and breaching your trust.
24:03I do respect you, Sasha.
24:07Too bad I can't say the same for others.
24:11You are representing Michael in his divorce, are you not, Diane?
24:15Well, things are devolving rapidly around here.
24:18So if you would call me back as soon as you get this message.
24:23We need to have a chat.
24:26Avery, we told Jocelyn we were just going to the park.
24:29Remember?
24:30And afterwards, I am taking you with Donna over to the park.
24:33And afterwards, I am taking you with Donna over to Carly's.
24:36And you guys are going to work on your project and finish your homework.
24:40Mommy, do you want to come back with us?
24:43Actually, I was thinking that we could spend time in our new apartment.
24:47Do you want to see your new bedroom?
24:48Sure.
24:50Can I go with my mom?
24:52As you can see, Avery would like to go with her mom.
24:56I want to go, too.
24:58Oh, Donna, you know, I am sure that Avery will invite you for a sleepover.
25:02But you'll need your mother's permission.
25:04I can't make decisions for other people's children.
25:06Just my own.
25:10Oh, boy. Excuse me. Don't run. I'm going to need backup.
25:13Hi, ladies.
25:15Hey, could I have a word?
25:18No, no. Avery and I were just leaving.
25:20Yeah, it's only going to take a minute.
25:21Elizabeth, Christina, could you take the girls over there?
25:24It looks like they were unfinished with their hopscotch game.
25:26Yeah, sure. Why not?
25:27Thanks.
25:28Okay, come on, girls.
25:29Okay, let's go.
25:30Bye, Mommy.
25:33I'll see you very soon, sweetheart.
25:34Come on.
25:40Jason, you're back.
25:41It was Michael.
25:43I need to talk to you.
25:44Come on, Jason. Grab a chair. Talk to all of us.
25:48This is private.
25:50Sasha.
25:51Actually, Jason, why don't you sit down for a minute?
25:54So we can all speak calmly and keep our voices down and not make a scene again.
26:00We're all family here. You can tell us.
26:04Tell you what?
26:05I think you know. In fact, I think the whole damn town knows.
26:09You're the father of Sasha's baby.
26:13Remind me to invest in a taser.
26:16What do you want, Carly?
26:17Carly?
26:18Oh, and before you start, let me remind you that this is not the Metro Court,
26:21and your audience is going to be considerably smaller for whatever it is you want to announce now.
26:27Confronting Drew was a mistake.
26:30You think?
26:31I get it, okay? It only made matters worse, and it pushes him and Willow closer together.
26:36Okay. I'm glad you figured that out.
26:38So, what are you bothering me for?
26:41Because you're just as guilty.
26:43If you keep interfering, Willow is going to take those kids, and we will never see them again.
26:49Willow doesn't have to respond to Michael's divorce petition right this second.
26:53I mean, he's still undergoing medical treatment. Surely you can stall this, Martin.
26:59Yeah, I could, maybe, but what's the point?
27:03I mean, I was just explaining to Willow before you got here that her custodial position with Wiley and Amelia is tenuous at best.
27:10In fact, I don't know how to say this any differently.
27:13Michael hit us hard with his petition. We need to respond in kind.
27:18Well, it's not uncommon to ask for the moon and the stars in the original petition.
27:21It's not like Michael necessarily wants to keep Willow away from her kids.
27:26It's his starting point. It's a negotiation tactic.
27:31Is that true?
27:33In all likelihood, yes.
27:36Which means we handle this in a calmer, more civilized manner when Michael comes back.
27:41Yes. I do not want to go into a courtroom and say terrible things about my children's father.
27:46Yeah, we don't want to aggravate the cornermains any more than they already have been.
27:50Michael is a wonderful father. I have to believe that we can come to some sort of compromise once he's better.
27:55So, it's agreed. We stall. We don't respond to the petition until Michael returns.
28:05Hi there. Do you need a few more minutes or can I take your order?
28:09Jocelyn Jacks, right?
28:11Who's asking?
28:13I'm Colette. WSB Station Chief Jack Brennan asked me to give you this.
28:20What is it?
28:21Open it and find out.
28:25What the hell, Rick? I'd be here with Avery right now if you hadn't interfered.
28:29Did you honestly think that Christina was going to let you leave with her sister?
28:32I'm her mother. I do not need Christina's permission to take my daughter.
28:36What were you doing in the park, huh? Did you plan this?
28:40I certainly didn't plan for Christina to be there.
28:43But you thought that Avery was going to be in the park.
28:47When I spoke to Avery last night on the phone, she mentioned to me that she and Donna would be at the park today with Jocelyn.
28:53And your plan was to what? Kidnap her?
28:57I can't kidnap my own child.
28:59Listen to me. Right now, like it or not, Avery is in Sonny's care.
29:04And where is Sonny, huh? Because he's not with Avery.
29:08She's shuffled after Carly so she has a mother who loves her and is desperate to see her.
29:13Ava, your desperation is about to cost you everything.
29:19Ava tried to take Avery. You guys were witnesses.
29:23I'm not so sure it was going to go that far.
29:25Oh, come on, Elizabeth. Are you serious? She tried to take Avery.
29:28Ava is a lying, hateful bitch.
29:30Christina, you need to calm down. We haven't seen stuff like that around the Pulse.
29:34If she had taken her, I would have done whatever I had to do to stop her.
29:38I'm sure you would. And they are very lucky to have a protective big sister like you.
29:42First Ava kills my baby and then she tries to walk off with my little sister?
29:46No. Ava does not get to have her daughter if I can't have mine.
29:58Why all the drama? Brennan could have texted me this address.
30:07A piece of paper can be easily destroyed without leaving a digital trail.
30:11Right. And this address? What is it?
30:16It's the location of a property purchased by Dr. Gatlin Holt one month after Cyrus Renaud was released from Pattonville.
30:23You're important to a lot of people, Kai, and not just because you're a football player.
30:28OK, Alex, if my pushing you to do our art project or bugging you about the future distracted and contributed to you getting hurt in any way, I'm sorry.
30:44I don't know where you got that idea, because up until I was hit, I was playing the best game of my life.
30:50I had three touchdown passes against an SEC team. I was I was completely in the zone. I've never been more focused.
30:56Thank God. Why would you think that you had anything to do with me getting hurt?
31:01You know, social media, it can be negative sometimes, you know?
31:06Yeah. You cannot read those comments. They're bad for you. And so is hypothermia.
31:13Do you want to go somewhere warm? Yeah, I'd like to.
31:23Ava was out of line. She shouldn't have tried to take Avery without permission.
31:27No, thank God you and Rick stepped in when you did.
31:30I'm glad we were here to help.
31:32My father finds out what she just tried to pull, she is never going to see Avery again.
31:37Of course, I'm desperate. I've lost so much, Rick. I've lost my home. I've lost most of my money. I cannot lose Avery, too.
31:46Kidnapping your daughter isn't the way to get her back. The only way to do this is to go to court.
31:51But you won't take my case to court until I can pay you. Right.
31:55And as you have kindly and frequently pointed out to me, I cannot afford a long, drawn out court battle right now.
32:01Which is why I'm going to take your case pro bono.
32:06You really expect me to believe that you have heart in there somewhere after tearing me away from my daughter?
32:12I just saved you from kidnapping charges, lady.
32:16With help like yours?
32:20You know, why don't you go on back to your little date with Elizabeth and leave me the hell alone?
32:27Well, Elizabeth doesn't want me, but you should. As your attorney, at least.
32:35Ava, I am your best and only chance at getting your daughter back. So please just get out of your own way and let me do it.
32:59My only concern is Monica's great grandchildren.
33:01Okay, are Wylie and Amelia with Monica right now?
33:03They are not, but that is not because of me.
33:05It is because of all of us, including you. Going after Drew only got us the opposite of what we want.
33:11Okay, so what do you want to do now? Hold hands and sing kumbaya?
33:15Or simply resign ourselves to watching Willow take those kids and move in with your ex?
33:21We trust Michael. That's what we do.
33:24I know my son, Tracy, he's getting better every single day. He's going to come home and he's going to get custody of his kids.
33:30But until then, we have to give Willow room to breathe. Willow has a conscience.
33:35She's going to feel guilty. She's going to see that she's behaving unfairly. And then she's going to see Drew for who he really is.
33:42And then what?
33:44And then Michael and Willow will find their way to a compromise.
33:49Wow, this is very fair and high-minded of you. I don't buy it.
33:56You are not the wait-and-see type. You're also not naive.
34:00Do you really believe when Michael comes home that sanity will return with him?
34:06I believe in my son.
34:08And so you should.
34:10But wherever Drew goes, chaos follows.
34:13You just leave Drew to me.
34:16Okay.
34:18We'll play this your way.
34:21Just make it hurt.
34:24Look, you're my client, which means I will play this. I will proceed any way you tell me to.
34:31But forgive me, I got to say it again. You and Michael are not on equal footing.
34:36Well, money's not a problem.
34:37It's not about money. It's about ammunition, Nina.
34:41And frankly, Michael has a lot more of it.
34:44To put it bluntly, you cheated. He didn't.
34:46And if this gets nasty and Diane drags Michael into court with a videotape of you having sex with his uncle,
34:52that could definitely impact your position in a custody fight.
34:57What can I do?
34:59Glad you asked.
35:01You find me something on Michael.
35:03Something we can use as leverage against him.
35:09You just apologized and said you would stay out of it.
35:12I also said that I still care.
35:13You don't care enough to stop telling my private business to everyone.
35:16I didn't tell everyone. Just Maxie, Lulu, Anna.
35:20Yeah, don't forget Drew.
35:22You started all of this by telling him, right?
35:24Yeah, well, only because he and his brother are both smug, entitled bastards who are exactly alike.
35:28Enough.
35:30Just back off. This has nothing to do with you.
35:32Come on, slimeball.
35:34Just step up for once in your life and take responsibility.
35:37Say it.
35:38Say that Sasha's baby is yours.
