00:00I think they liked what they heard.
00:03I think they loved what they heard.
00:05And they're a small company for growth.
00:08But an online platform that offers music education is right in our wheelhouse.
00:13Gives kids who can't afford private lessons access to some great teachers.
00:18With this deal, we can do some good in the world.
00:20And we can do some good to Winter's bottom line.
00:23It's a win-win.
00:24All right.
00:25Cheers to that.
00:26Oh, excuse me.
00:28You ain't celebrating without me.
00:30We got you covered.
00:32Oh, thank you.
00:34Yeah, we had our presentation and they're very interested.
00:37Now we just need to bring in our clothes.
00:41Oh, that's you.
00:42Oh, I figured.
00:43Yeah, I'll call and set something up.
00:47So, I just came from a meeting and I have some news to share.
00:53If it's as good as an opportunity as this, then...
00:55Well, maybe.
00:59How do you two feel about possibly bringing Damien on to work at Winter's?
01:11All right.
01:11And there's me with my mom in Boston.
01:15Damien, it's good.
01:16Yeah, yeah.
01:18It's probably too early for the treatment to be working.
01:21But, no, she's got some hope.
01:27And her son and the back at her side.
01:33I'm just grateful that Nate hooked her up with that doctor friend.
01:36Yes.
01:37I guess that means you and your brother got along well on this trip.
01:42Yeah, yeah.
01:44We even caught a game at Fenway.
01:48You, a lifelong Yankee fan, went to Fenway Park?
01:51Hey, man.
01:51It gave me a chance to root against Red Sox.
01:54Oh, and I saw Lily right when I got back.
02:00We spent a little while of time together.
02:05Getting real tight real fast with some people in Genoa City.
02:09Is that a problem for you?
02:10How was it?
02:36Why am I not surprised that Victor is ordering us to run yet another hit piece on Billy?
02:59For the record, my father asked me. He didn't ask you.
03:02Oh, because he's trying to protect me? I don't think so. More like he doesn't want to hear my objections.
03:10Well, I'm not sure that I want to hear them either.
03:13That's not a very kind way to treat your new business partner.
03:16That's not what I meant, okay?
03:17So what did you mean exactly?
03:20I meant I already know what your objections are going to be.
03:23Okay, tell me. What are they?
03:24You want to protect Billy.
03:27I want to protect anyone from an unwarranted smear campaign.
03:30Okay, well, let's put aside whether it's warranted or not.
03:32Well, let's put it aside. Adam, I won't.
03:36Okay, well, like I said, we're having our first professional disagreement.
03:40Professional?
03:42Is that what this is?
03:44What does that mean?
03:45I just joined your family's company, so I can't help but wonder about the timing.
03:53Is this Victor's way of testing my loyalty?
04:03Hey.
04:04Uh, can I get a little slack coffee, please?
04:10So I understand your little startup got off to a rough start.
04:17How's that?
04:19Rumor has it that Phyllis jumped ship.
04:22Is that because you fired her?
04:30Or she left the job?
04:33As so many of your co-workers have.
04:42Lily, you discussed the job with Damien without talking to us first.
04:46Well, it wasn't, like, a secret plan I had.
04:50We were chatting about business, and it came up.
04:53He already has a job.
04:54It pays him really well, right?
04:55Yeah, I know that.
04:57Okay.
04:57So whose idea was this?
04:59Was it yours, or is it his?
05:01It was mine.
05:02I wanted to gauge his interest.
05:04And was he interested?
05:06Yeah, he seemed intrigued.
05:07I told him to think about it and get back to me.
05:11It's not a done deal, okay?
05:12I know that you might think that because I'm the closer, okay?
05:18All right.
05:19Clearly, Devon is not happy.
05:22What do you think about it?
05:25I think I need to hear more about the conversation.
05:28What did you offer exactly?
05:30I didn't offer anything.
05:31I want to talk to you, too, and figure out a role
05:33and maybe some parameters around compensation.
05:36Let's slow down for a second.
05:39We already offered him a job, right?
05:41I'm not a real one.
05:43Exactly.
05:43This would be a legitimate position.
05:46Okay.
05:47I'm still wrapping my head around this.
05:50Is Damien seriously considering leaving his job in LA?
05:55Okay.
05:56It is a part of a plan I have.
06:01So there is a plan.
06:02What's this plan?
06:03Well, if we can get Damien to maybe let...
06:06Let me stop right there, Lily.
06:07I think I know where you're going with this.
06:12And I'm not liking it at all.
06:19I gave Phyllis a much-needed personal time off.
06:23I understand you tapped Sally Spector as a replacement.
06:28She's a little better than Phyllis, but not by much, really.
06:33You spend an awful lot of time hating people that you have no reason to hate.
06:39You know, Sally Spector had a chance to make something of herself.
06:43Then she knocked out.
06:48And ended up with you.
06:50And you didn't approve of Adam and Sally being together.
06:52You didn't think that she was good enough for him.
06:54And now you hate the fact that she's with me.
06:58Family loyalty runs deep, huh?
07:00Oh, yeah.
07:02You know family means everything.
07:04My kids are your grandkids.
07:13See what I mean?
07:15And you're constantly thinking to fight with me.
07:19You've got an obsession tearing me down.
07:24Why is that?
07:25If Victor wants to challenge my commitment to Newman Media,
07:31he should approach me about it.
07:33Not go through you.
07:35My father has made it clear that he approves of me hiring you.
07:39Well, today is a new day.
07:41I should have known that his turnaround was too good to be true.
07:44Hey, Chelsea.
07:46Don't go there.
07:46What?
07:47No, it makes perfect sense.
07:48I mean, it's one thing for Victor to give us his blessing about getting together as a couple.
07:52Right, and he has done that.
07:54Completely.
07:56I mean, he pushed for us to get back together.
07:58For Connor's sake.
07:59No, no, it was for mine as well.
08:02He knows that you were good for me.
08:04But does he know that I'm running for this company?
08:07This family company?
08:08Chelsea, honestly, I don't think this has anything to do with you.
08:12I've seen Victor put you and your siblings' loyalty to the test time and time again.
08:17So why would he trust me to look at the letters he gives?
08:21He has an agenda.
08:23Yeah.
08:24He has a chance to take shots at Billy.
08:26It wouldn't be the first used media platform to go after him and to hurt him.
08:31The chancellor.
08:32The objective was to gain control of the company.
08:35And he got him.
08:37He got him.
08:40Took it.
08:41Gave it to Nick.
08:42He won.
08:43By playing dirty.
08:44He won.
08:45By playing dirty.
08:46I'm telling you that this is all.
08:51Why can't he just be that man?
08:54Because he's a jerk.
08:56And he always needs more.
09:00Billy is finally getting back on his feet with his venture.
09:03And Victor just wants to hurt him.
09:06And you're telling me this isn't personal?
09:07I can understand why it seems that way.
09:11But this is much less about Billy and it's more about Aristotle Dumas.
09:14What does that have to do with him?
09:16We think he's going after Chancellor.
09:22Adam.
09:24Are you really trying to protect Chancellor?
09:27Or are you trying to hurt Abbott Communications?
09:34Is going after Billy Victor's idea?
09:37Or yours?
09:43Who's supposed to be happy, man?
09:44Okay.
09:45I don't like seeing you walking around with this on your shoulder.
09:48And yet, you seem to want me to carry a garage.
09:50If you trust people, you run the risk of getting hurt.
09:58That's life.
10:01But that doesn't mean that you can't be able about picking who you trust.
10:07I know it's moving fast.
10:10But with my mom,
10:12even that much time.
10:15I know you regret cutting everything.
10:17Yes.
10:18It's stupid.
10:19Lost your dad.
10:20He met the world with you.
10:26Because he always looked like you.
10:29Just like you.
10:33Look, man.
10:34I know I did.
10:37All this family business.
10:38Okay?
10:39And I know a lot of work has gone on my shoulders while having my back.
10:43And I'm sorry for that.
10:45Goddamn.
10:46You never have to apologize for leaning on me.
10:48Yeah.
10:49But I do need to let you know that I appreciate how you've been there for me.
10:55And I think I have a way to show you how much.
11:05What's that?
11:06Look, I've got a very intriguing offer from the new to stay in General City permanently.
11:14So, what if you take over my job in a day?
11:23What's this all about?
11:33It's about me looking out for you.
11:37That's funny.
11:39Because it feels more like you're trying to get rid of me.
11:41Okay, I know you're not both that naive.
11:46This is about business.
11:47But Damien and his family.
11:48Well, you didn't care that he was your family when you offered him a job to get what you wanted.
11:54What's funny about that is I actually didn't like that plan.
11:57And you both thought it was a good strategy.
11:58My goal wasn't to give Damien to advance my mom on our work agenda.
12:03It was to unite a son with a dying mother, Lily.
12:06Yeah, you know I've helped push him to make that happen, right?
12:08Yes, you did.
12:09But I also asked you to take a step back from whatever it is you got going on with Damien.
12:14This whole wood has been turned upside down.
12:17He's still trying to find his footing.
12:18He doesn't need you throwing any more at him.
12:20Nate.
12:21Please, Lily, please.
12:24You agreed to let me and Amy deal with this.
12:26Yeah, you know what?
12:29I did.
12:30But that wasn't until I realized that we were also dealing with Aristotle Dumas.
12:37Chelsea, do you really think if I was going after Billy, I would have told you about him.
12:44Given how close we're going to be working together, I don't think you'd have a choice.
12:48Really?
12:48So you think I'm just using my father as cover?
12:52Are you?
12:53Most certainly not.
12:56And if you can't take my word on that, this is not going to work.
13:04Chelsea, please.
13:05I'm telling you the truth.
13:08It was my father who issued the marching orders.
13:11Okay.
13:12Then set me straight.
13:16Give me your word right here, right now.
13:18That going forward, you will never use Newman media to take Billy down.
13:23So come on, I mean, what did I do on this particular day to deserve this malice?
13:37Man to man.
13:40Oh, man to boy.
13:41Has it never occurred to you that we've gone to round to round all these years?
13:59Even after all your cheap shots, I'm still standing?
14:01Don't you bless it.
14:10Or be for law.
14:12Well, I publish that I'm not threatened by you.
14:17I don't know.
14:17Maybe you're threatened by me.
14:18I mean, what other reason do you have for this obsession?
14:21We're trying to tear me down.
14:22Why don't we try something new?
14:30Sounds exciting.
14:32What do you have in mind?
14:36Victor, for all we know, the man doesn't even exist.
14:39We have to keep an eye on him.
14:41He has shown interest in winters.
14:43Yeah, according to Victor, who could be playing his own games, man.
14:46Maybe, but not just power.
14:49And right now, we're in the dark.
14:51And so I want to see if Damien can find out if Dumas is actually a threat to us.
14:55How is him going to do that?
14:58Friends close.
14:59Yeah, you're closer.
15:01That's funny.
15:02That's what Damien said when I met with him earlier.
15:05Two are in sync.
15:08We got a little closer in Boston.
15:10And I don't want to lose that because Damien might think we're playing again.
15:14And this offer of yours makes both of us think we're on him as the enemy.
15:19But I'm not.
15:20But we both jumped to that suspicion, Lily.
15:23And I don't like that for my brother.
15:25I know he probably has a hard time saying no to you before.
15:28It's all good.
15:29I hope that's his answer.
15:32I kind of agree with Nate.
15:34But I would like to hear what this plan is.
15:36I don't think I want to hear it.
15:38We're just talking here.
15:39Okay?
15:40Don't harm him doing that.
15:42I know we both respect Lily's instincts.
15:44So the least we can do is hear her out.
15:49All right.
15:53Just tell us what is there to be getting by luring Damien away from Dumas?
15:58I want to see if Damien can find out if Dumas has his sights set on looters.
16:03And if he does, he can give us information on what he wants to do.
16:07Can you think that Damien can get that information for us?
16:10It would be part of the job offer.
16:12Look, I've already been burned by one corporate takeover.
16:16I will be damned if it happens again.
16:18Okay?
16:19And I know he's your brother, Nate.
16:20And you're protective of him.
16:22But I will not lose our family business.
16:26Damien is the only person who can help us stop that from happening.
16:29Well, I just want to break you.
16:36Odin, you're my best friend.
16:39You just told me about a thousand miles from this new life you're putting in for yourself.
16:45Come on, man.
16:45Keep on good of a given.
16:49Okay?
16:49And if I leave, I'd like to leave it to you.
16:53And if I had it my way, I would keep things that they are.
16:58Yeah.
17:00Look.
17:01Billy offered you in the waters.
17:04Are you sure it's legit?
17:08She's a mess around.
17:09This doesn't work for me.
17:16I made it clear she didn't trust a ward by your mouth.
17:19No damn well.
17:20That you were swimming with.
17:22And now she wants to bring you in her family business.
17:27They played you before.
17:30You know they're not playing you now.
17:31Chelsea, I've been totally up front with you about my father's intentions.
17:40I mean, doesn't that count for something?
17:42Only if your intention is to refuse to do what he's laughing at.
17:48You didn't even ask me what I think.
17:51You just jumped to conclusions.
17:53You jumped to Billy's defense, actually.
17:57All while attacking me.
17:59Are you on my team or are you on his team?
18:01I am committed to working with you.
18:05I truly believe we can do something together.
18:10When Connor got, you know, anything about CD,
18:13we didn't even know where to begin.
18:14And we used media platforms to educate ourselves.
18:19Yeah, so we could better take care of ourselves.
18:21We'll need information.
18:24They need news.
18:26I want to help people, not hurt them.
18:28And that is, I want to.
18:34Okay?
18:35I want this company to be a reflection of who I am.
18:39And who you are.
18:41That's why I asked you to join me here.
18:43And that's why I'm saying yes to this vision.
18:49And saying no to Victor, you're not going to go after him.
18:55What?
18:56Billy Abbott might help to self-destruct.
18:59He can do that all of my own.
19:01But that is my personal opinion.
19:06And it's not going to be broadcast across our platforms.
19:11I am so happy to hear you say that.
19:13But I reserve it to protect my family if Billy comes after what's ours.
19:22Billy is busy.
19:23He's focused on rapid communications.
19:28Well, then why is he in communications with Aristotle Dumas?
19:31Let me ask you one minute and never look back.
19:38Oh, I didn't say that.
19:40For the time being, you can say.
19:44It's very sweet of you.
19:45Thank you for your permission.
19:48Yes.
19:51Who do you have going with Aristotle Dumas?
20:01Tell me more about this Aristotle Dumas.
20:15Well, there's not really much to tell.
20:19He's operated in the shadows.
20:22Seemingly came out of nowhere about six years ago.
20:25Made his fortune in real estate.
20:28Without anyone actually knowing who he really is?
20:32Some people think he doesn't even exist.
20:34No one's seen his face?
20:36That's right.
20:38I mean, Billy never mentioned him to you.
20:42No, I would have remembered that name if he did.
20:45Maybe Dumas is helping him with financing.
20:48No, it was Jack that financed Abby Communications.
20:52So, Victor thinks Dumas is going after Chancellor.
20:56What's the connection to Billy?
20:58Well, that's what we're trying to figure out.
21:00They have a meeting set up.
21:02Billy and Dumas?
21:04From what you've told me, this guy doesn't meet with anybody.
21:07Well, if he's sitting down face to face with Billy...
21:10It must be something big.
21:12My father takes all threats seriously, so we have intel that indicates that Dumas has taken an interest in Chancellor.
21:21And Billy knows Chancellor.
21:23You were very quick to assume this was personal for me.
21:29But can you now see that it might be Billy who has an axe to grind here?
21:33Well, Billy made it no secret how upset he was.
21:37He lost Chancellor to Victor and Nikki.
21:39So, maybe he thinks that Dumas can help him get it back.
21:45Victor, I'm not surprised you're bringing up Aristotle Dumas.
21:48He's the one that beat you to the punch in that Caputo deal.
21:50I just drove the price up.
21:57Made him overpay.
22:01Still impressive with your corporate spin.
22:04You should be running Newman Media instead of simply pulling the strings on your puppet son.
22:08Don't avoid the subject, okay?
22:12I know that you had a meeting planned with Aristotle Dumas.
22:16He's cancelled the meeting.
22:19Not the first time.
22:24Why don't you go ahead and tell me about the deal you want to make?
22:31You tell me why you're meeting with Aristotle Dumas.
22:38And I will stop an uplandish of bad news.
22:42And will come your way.
22:44Inundate your company.
22:46Your slaughter.
22:48Before it even gets off the ground.
22:50How's that?
22:54Okay, look.
22:55You don't have to tell me this will be a dangerous game.
22:59I'm fully aware that
23:01really may not be laying her claws on the table.
23:04She must be working
23:06at some angle.
23:09No?
23:10Has she given you any indication of motives?
23:15No, she did.
23:17Put it out as a
23:18test of loyalty
23:20to her and her family.
23:22How far I'm willing to go.
23:28Getting rid of a solid job.
23:30I'm crossing Dumas.
23:31That's
23:31pretty damn far.
23:35Tell me about it.
23:36So, Lily
23:41thinks Dumas
23:43is planning a tape-over marriage.
23:45Yeah.
23:47Is that
23:48what's happening here?
23:49Our boss isn't willing to lay his cards on the table.
23:53Okay?
23:53Let alone
23:53let us see a single one.
23:57But
23:58if he
23:59wants
24:00winters
24:02then he'll
24:06go all in.
24:10There's always a way
24:11to get what you want
24:14if
24:15you want that enough.
24:19Are you talking about Dumas
24:21or you
24:21right now?
24:23Because it seems to me
24:24that you
24:25want Lily.
24:28That's the only reason
24:29you're even considering this offer.
24:35Listen.
24:36I get
24:36that you're still hurt
24:37by what Victor and Nikki
24:38did to you.
24:40Yeah, of course I am.
24:41He used me to take Chancellor
24:42and left me out in the cold.
24:44Right, but
24:45everything's worked out
24:47for the best.
24:48Isn't it?
24:49Just because I'm happy
24:50at winters
24:50doesn't mean I have to be okay
24:51with what they did.
24:53Look, I don't want
24:54anyone to hurt
24:55our company.
24:57I
24:57I understand that
24:58and I
24:59I know that you think
25:00this plan is going to
25:01help protect the company
25:02but I see a lot of holes in it
25:03and I'm concerned
25:04it will end up hurting Damien.
25:06Okay, can you just
25:07hear me out
25:08and then say no?
25:11Please go ahead.
25:13If Damien is interested
25:15in my offer
25:16I can have him
25:17presented to Dumas
25:18as a way to get
25:19inside information
25:20on winters.
25:21So then what?
25:22He would pitch himself
25:23as having
25:24inside access
25:25to information
25:26so Dumas
25:27can exploit
25:28any weaknesses
25:28we have?
25:29Exactly.
25:31Dumas will tell Damien
25:32what to look for
25:33and then Damien
25:33can put that information
25:34along to us.
25:36And then we would know
25:38Dumas' moves
25:39before he makes it.
25:40You want my brother
25:41to be a spy?
25:43No, I want him
25:44to be a part
25:44of this family.
25:45Okay?
25:45Here's the problem.
25:46This plan could work
25:49if we trusted Damien
25:50completely
25:51and I thought
25:51we'd do
25:52because he'd owe
25:53a lot of loyalty
25:54to Dumas
25:55than to us.
25:56And then
25:57we get going
25:58and we're talking
25:59about here.
25:59No, I'm done
26:00with this.
26:02I'm not going to
26:02use my brother
26:03to play both sides.
26:05He already feels
26:05like his whole life
26:06has been one big lie
26:08and now you want him
26:09to live some lie?
26:10We want him to tell?
26:13No.
26:14I'm not going to
26:14let that happen.
26:16I'm not going to
26:44let that cloud
26:44my judgment.
26:46I'm going to do
26:47everything above board.
26:48I'm not trying
26:48to trick him.
26:50I'm going to lay out
26:50all the options
26:51and let him
26:52make the choice.
26:53I still think
26:54there's a big risk
26:55to this
26:56because what if
26:56it fails
26:57and he just ends
26:58up giving
26:58the Dumas
26:59and that's the S?
27:00Mm-hmm.
27:01That I don't believe.
27:03I trust him
27:03as far as that goes.
27:05Okay.
27:06Well,
27:07I mean,
27:08this whole conversation
27:09might be moot
27:10because we don't
27:10even know
27:11if he's interested
27:11in taking
27:12the jab
27:12at Winters,
27:12right?
27:14Say for the moment
27:15that he was interested.
27:17What happens
27:18after this threat
27:19from Dumas
27:20has been neutralized?
27:21He would still
27:22have a place
27:22in the family business.
27:25Look,
27:26Damien doesn't like
27:27where he's at,
27:29okay?
27:29He doesn't like
27:30being a figurehead.
27:31He's worried
27:31that maybe Dumas
27:33is using him
27:33to cover something up.
27:36This is what's best
27:37for Damien and us.
27:39And like you two
27:40told me
27:41when you were trying
27:42to convince me
27:42to come back
27:43to work at Winters,
27:44every decision we make
27:46will be about
27:47family first
27:48and business second.
27:52Well,
27:52it's definitely
27:53part of the reason
27:54why I'm considering this.
27:57But it's not just
27:58because I may have
28:00an interest
28:00in a personal relationship.
28:03No,
28:04this is a business decision.
28:06Okay?
28:07You've seen our resume.
28:09Man,
28:09I'd be a fool
28:10to pass up an opportunity
28:12to work with somebody
28:13talented as that.
28:15And that's
28:16kind of the way
28:17I feel about
28:17working for you.
28:18No,
28:18Hogan,
28:20you've put your career
28:22on the back burner
28:23long enough.
28:24Look at me.
28:24You're ready.
28:26Okay?
28:26You are ready
28:27to move up
28:28more than a few rungs
28:29on the corporate ladder.
28:31So you're serious
28:32about me running.
28:33Monty Crystal
28:34with Anglers.
28:35No one knows
28:36the business
28:36as well as I do
28:38except you.
28:41If you leave,
28:43if,
28:47will Dumas
28:48continue to trust me?
28:50I've never talked
28:51to the guy
28:51nor have I seen him.
28:54Neither have I.
28:55but he knows
28:57about our history.
28:59He knows
29:00how committed
29:01and loyal you are.
29:03Some people
29:04inspire that.
29:05Okay,
29:05look,
29:06I've tested
29:06our friendship
29:07with my
29:09impatience,
29:10with my temper,
29:11and yet you're
29:12still here,
29:13Odin.
29:14Still loyal.
29:16Yeah,
29:16but I kind of
29:17stuck around
29:17because whenever
29:18we went to New York,
29:19you'd have
29:19Yankee tickets
29:20behind the home plate.
29:21That's...
29:21if you took
29:27this job,
29:28those tickets
29:29would be yours.
29:31Oh,
29:31who would I bring?
29:33Look,
29:33man,
29:33if this plays out
29:34that way,
29:36you better not even
29:36think about
29:37asking anyone else.
29:39I can't deny
29:46that Billy would
29:47love to see
29:47Victor lose
29:48Chancellor.
29:50Guy has a
29:50hard time
29:51moving on.
29:52Well,
29:53that's not
29:54really fair.
29:55What your
29:56father did,
29:56it wasn't just
29:57taking the company
29:58from him
29:58and giving it
29:59to Nicky.
30:00He used Jill.
30:01He turned a mother
30:02against her own son.
30:03Okay,
30:04my father
30:05does not always
30:06play nice.
30:07I will grant
30:08you that.
30:11Well,
30:12I appreciate
30:13you telling me
30:14the truth
30:14about Victor's
30:15demand.
30:16I also appreciate
30:17you saying
30:18you won't go
30:18along with it.
30:20You're so
30:21looking out
30:21for Billy.
30:23We both
30:23hurt him,
30:24Adam.
30:25I just
30:26don't want
30:26to hurt him
30:26anymore.
30:35Maybe
30:35this was
30:36a mistake.
30:36Josie.
30:39No,
30:39I got
30:40so excited
30:40about your
30:41pitch.
30:42The idea
30:43of working
30:44closely with
30:44you that I
30:45think maybe
30:45I convinced
30:46myself things
30:46could be
30:47different.
30:47What are you
30:48talking about?
30:49Things are
30:50different.
30:51Victor will
30:52always be.
30:52This is not
30:53about my
30:53father.
30:56This is
30:56about my
30:57son.
30:58Okay,
30:59look,
30:59I know
30:59that I
30:59have spent
31:00a lot
31:00of time
31:01in the
31:01past
31:01trying to
31:02please
31:02my
31:03father,
31:03but
31:03I want
31:05to be
31:05someone
31:06who
31:06Connor
31:06can be
31:07proud
31:07of.
31:08He is
31:09proud
31:09of you.
31:12I'm
31:12not the
31:15same guy
31:15that I
31:16was before
31:16we came
31:17together
31:17to help
31:17Connor
31:18heal.
31:18you know
31:21that.
31:22You know
31:23that's the
31:24only reason
31:24you're with
31:24me again.
31:27But it's
31:28me working
31:28here,
31:30putting us
31:30and our
31:31family at
31:31risk.
31:34Because you
31:34can say
31:35you're going
31:35to try to
31:35resist
31:36Victor's
31:36pull,
31:37and I
31:37can say
31:37I'm going
31:38to help
31:39you stand
31:39your ground.
31:42But if
31:43Victor gets
31:44you involved
31:44in another
31:45battle with
31:45Billy,
31:46you have
31:48to believe
31:48in me.
31:51In us.
31:54I know
31:55that we
31:55can do
31:55this.
31:57I know
31:58together
31:58we can
31:59make
31:59Newman
31:59Media
32:00as amazing
32:01as a
32:01company.
32:04As well

34:51I
34:52might
34:52decide
34:52that
34:52you're
34:52right.
34:56That's a
34:56first.
34:57About what?
34:58About it
34:59being better
34:59to just
35:00keep things
35:01the way
35:01they are.
35:04Are you
35:05trying to sell
35:05that to me
35:06or yourself?
35:08Because it
35:09sounds like
35:09you already
35:10have one
35:10food out
35:10door and
35:11if the
35:11deal
35:12is
35:12done
35:13I
35:16just
35:16need to
35:16decide
35:16what my
35:17next move
35:17is.
35:17Damien.
35:44What a
35:45nice
35:45surprise.
35:47Hey.
35:47Lily.
35:49I've
35:49given
35:51some
35:51thought
35:52to what
35:53we talked
35:54about
35:54earlier.
35:56So
35:56can
35:57we meet
35:58now
35:58so I
36:00can tell
36:00you what
36:00I've
36:00decided?
36:05Today
36:05was
36:05a
36:06day,
36:06man.
36:08I do
36:09see Lily's
36:09point of
36:10view in
36:10all this.
36:10If it
36:11were about
36:12anyone else
36:12other than
36:13my brother.
36:13I know.
36:14I know.
36:14But listen,
36:15we brought
36:16Lily back
36:16to the
36:17company
36:17for a
36:17reason.
36:19You know,
36:19she's good
36:20at reading
36:20people and
36:21she doesn't
36:21run people
36:21over to
36:22get what
36:22she wants.
36:23And if
36:24Damien comes
36:25to work
36:25at Winters,
36:26that's an
36:26opportunity for
36:26you two to
36:27get closer.
36:30So you're
36:31with her on
36:31this?
36:31I don't
36:34know if I'm
36:35with her on
36:35this,
36:36but I do
36:36know that
36:37this Dumas
36:37character sounds
36:38like he's
36:39trouble.
36:40So,
36:41you know,
36:42this plan
36:42might be
36:43what's best
36:43for you,
36:44me,
36:44Lily,
36:44and
36:45you.
36:47Look,
36:47I don't
36:49want my
36:49brother or
36:50our company
36:50to fall
36:51prey to
36:51some
36:51ruthless
36:52businessman.
36:54We've all
36:55been there
36:55and done
36:56that.
36:56effecting
36:58women.
37:09You want
37:10to know
37:10if she's
37:10going to
37:11go along
37:11to get
37:12well?
37:14Or
37:15suddenly,
