[ scene_break ] adam : hello , stuart , it 's your brother . um -- i did n't call you to wish you happy new year yesterday , and so i 'm -- i 'm calling today to wish you happy new year . perhaps , if you get this message in time , you could come up for a cup of coffee , or whatever . i 'm sure i can fit you into my schedule . [ adam hangs up ] adam : well , look who 's here . what do you want , hannah ? what 's this ? hannah : zach 's head on a platter , just like you asked , boss .

[ scene_break ] officer : have a seat . kendall : zach , you should n't be out of the hospital . zach : and you should n't be here . you should be at home with our kids . kendall : please -- please , please , do n't do this . zach : why did n't you listen to me ? kendall : i told you that i needed to do this . zach : yeah , you told me . you have no idea what you 've done , do you ? you 've thrown away everything . kendall : please do n't look at me like that . zach : how many times did i ask you ? how many times did i beg you to wait ? kendall : i could n't . zach : why not ? kendall : greenlee was sick . she almost died . zach : she 's not the problem . you 're the problem . greenlee 's fine with everything . so is aidan , so what are you doing ? why are you doing this ? kendall : to clear my conscience . is that good enough ? zach : no , that 's good enough . so now you got a clear conscience , and you threw away your family . that does n't even make sense to me . jack : i 'm sorry to interrupt , but i 'd like to speak to kendall . zach : why ? jack : kendall , i 'd like to represent you , if you would allow me to . kendall : i do n't know what to say . jack : kendall , two of my daughters made mistakes , you and greenlee . but that does n't change who you are to me , and it never will . [ scene_break ] aidan : so , jack is representing kendall , huh ? wow . greenlee : yeah , i know . it 's like the whole world has done a 180 . i 'm friends with zach , you 're with kendall -- aidan : excuse me ? greenlee : what ? aidan : well , i 'm with you , unless you 've demoted me since last night . [ greenlee chuckles ] greenlee : i mean you 're friends with kendall . what did you think i meant ? [ greenlee chuckles ] aidan : huh . nothing . huh . do n't worry about it . how are you feeling ? greenlee : oh , aidan , i feel fine . i wish everyone would stop asking me that . aidan : well , why would they ? you were trapped in a hole for five weeks with no food and no water . greenlee : i 'm fine . aidan : no , you 're not fine . greenlee : oh -- aidan : but you do look good enough to kiss , though . greenlee : when is this going to be over , aidan ? aidan : well , the good news is that -- um -- kendall is turning herself in , so that should get you off the hook for most of the charges . greenlee : right , and that 's supposed to make me feel better ? i just -- i do n't understand why she 's doing this . i -- i do n't know what she 's thinking . aidan : she was thinking of you . maybe she ca n't -- she ca n't live with what she did to you . greenlee : but i forgave her for all of that . aidan : maybe it 's not that simple for her . all right ? anyway , i really need to get down to the police station , so -- i need to see what 's going on . so do n't you start jumping around on this bed like a cheeky monkey , will you ? greenlee : yes , ok , boss . i 'm so lucky to have you . aidan : see you soon . [ scene_break ] hannah : before zach disappeared , he ordered me to break chandler enterprises in pieces . so i sold every last chandler corporation at bargain price . adam : to whom ? hannah : dummy corporations which i control . and now they 're all yours , adam . and they wo n't cost you half of what they should . so once you reclaim your companies , you can piece them together , and voilà , chandler enterprises rises from the ashes . adam : how careful were you ? hannah : ok , very . zach wo n't have a clue what happened . you know , see , he 's had this little pesky thing called staying alive to deal with , hmm ? adam : how about his pit bull , josh ? hannah : he wo n't find any trails leading back to you or to me . adam : how can you be sure of that ? hannah : you know what , adam ? i cover my tracks . i spent my whole life doing just that . adam : yeah . well , this is insulting . chandler enterprises stock is worth 10 times what this says . hannah : yes , that 's the idea . sell it cheap , buy it back cheaper . it 's all right there in your hands , adam . smile . adam : hmm . hannah : zach wo n't have a clue . he wo n't , until it 's too late .

[ scene_break ] zach : i do n't like it , any of it . jack : zach , if you have a problem with my representing kendall -- zach : i have a problem with the whole thing , jack . jack : i understand that . but kendall 's already turned herself in . you ca n't turn back the clock on that . kendall : i would be honored to have you represent me , jack . jack : thank you . zach : oh , good . so everyone 's happy . that 's great . jack : here 's how we start . i find out what the charges are against you , and i build a strategy to knock some of them down . kendall : ok . zach : is that all right with you , or you going to insist on jail time ? kendall : i do n't want to go to jail . i just want to do the right thing . zach : it 's a little complicated now . kendall : zach , come on . jack : i 've already arranged for bail , ok ? officer hayes , if you would escort mrs. slater to the front to be processed -- i 'll see you up there . kendall : thank you , jack . jack : you 're welcome . kendall : hey , zach -- zach : what ? kendall : i hope that you understand . zach : what are you thinking ? jack : well , it 's tough to get specific at this point . there 's a couple of judges we could draw . both of them are fair , but i 'll require a different game plan for each one . zach : but you will have a game plan ? jack : yes , zach , of course , i will . zach : of course , you will . she wants to take responsibility for all of that , i do n't know why . but she 's not going to prison . i 'm not going to lose her , not again , jack , ok ? [ scene_break ] richie : try not to look so excited . michael : oh , no , no , no . of course . i know how difficult this must be for you . richie : i 'm sure it 's just breaking your heart . michael : when ? richie : next week . michael : could you be more specific ? richie : i 'm going to die , doc . so quit trying to act so damn concerned . i know you hate my guts . michael : i do n't hate you , novak . richie : oh , sure you do . and you know what ? i feel the same way . in fact , if we were on the outside , and i had some of my strength left , i 'd take that dome head of yours , and i 'd crush it like a melon . so come on , doc , it 's confession time . tell me how you really feel . michael : all right . i think you 're a dangerous sociopath . richie : boo - yah ! there it is . keep it coming , doc . i 'm loving this . michael : and your death , whenever it may come , will be a relief to anyone who has ever had the displeasure of knowing you . richie : especially to the beneficiary of my insurance policy ? michael : that was our deal , richie . you get released from prison , i get the money . richie : oh . do you still think you 're getting all that money ? michael : what are you talking about ? richie : well , i do n't need you anymore , doc , so the deal 's off . i 've named a new beneficiary . babe chandler . [ scene_break ] j.r. : i thought you were done with richie novak . babe : i 'm not seeing him if that 's what you 're thinking . it 's just a little gift , that 's all . why are you making a big deal out of it ? j.r. : ok . ok , fine . it 's no big deal . babe : thank you . j.r. : but to save you all the time and trouble , why do n't i just go ahead and run it over to him ? he 's -- he 's still at the psych ward , if i 'm not mistaken . yeah , that 's what i 'll do . i 'll go ahead and take it to him right now . babe : j.r. , wait . do n't .

[ hannah chuckles ] hannah : he 's looking at his wife , kendall , and his precious family . so it was easy . adam : yeah , so i see . you are a remarkably clever woman , hannah . hannah : yeah , so i 've been told . adam : this business with slater is done , so there will be other challenges ahead . i could certainly use someone like you to help me deal with them . i think we 'd make a very good team . hannah : are you making me an offer ? or are you just trying to get me into bed ? adam : no , it 's an offer , for now . i have it -- why do n't we -- why do n't we drink to it ? let 's have a toast . to chandler enterprises , the second coming . hannah : hmm .

[ scene_break ] aidan : so what are kendall 's chances here ? i mean , really ? jack : it 's difficult to say . it 's going to be a very high - profile case because of who kendall is and the circumstances surrounding it . aidan : ok , do n't be a lawyer , all right ? i mean , just -- what 's -- what 's your best guess ? jack : best guess ? aidan : uh - huh . jack : 50/50 , aidan . jail or community service . it 's -- huh -- kind of depends on the d.a . 's mood . aidan : damn . oh , man . jack : yeah . damn , indeed . it 's a real mess , is n't it ? although , i must say , you should be commended . not so long ago , you would 've been screaming for kendall 's head on a stick . aidan : well , a lot 's changed since then . jack : obviously . aidan : jack , we 've known each other a long time . if you got something to say , why do n't you just come out and say it ? jack : you and kendall -- aidan : yeah ? what about me and kendall ? jack : how about you tell me ? [ scene_break ] kendall : did you hear spike snoring ? zach : no , i did n't . kendall : zach , please talk to me . zach : what do you want to talk about ? what do you want to say ? i dreamed about this evening . my first night home with the boys -- i dreamed about that every day in that hole . kendall : i know -- zach : you do n't know . you ca n't . you do n't know what i 'm feeling right now . kendall : well , then tell me . zach : i know you made a promise to god because you wanted to come clean . i think that 's very nice . what about your promise to me ? what about your promise to those little boys ? they 're your responsibility . that is your family . kendall : i love my boys . i love you . you have no idea how -- how -- zach : no , you have no idea . you have no idea what it was like in that hole , running out of food , running out of water , not knowing if i would see you , ian , spike ever again . and you know what ? i did a little bargaining , too . i bargained with god . i said , `` if you get me out of here -- if you get us out of here , i will never be separated from my family ever again . `` kendall : please , just -- zach : because i should 've died that day . i should 've died when the car hit me , i should 've died when i fell into that hole , but i did n't . i kept fighting . you know why ? i wanted to be there for those boys , i wanted to see them grow up , and i fought for the privilege of seeing your face , the privilege of seeing you . and for what ? what , i crawled out so i can be here and hold your hand when they tell you how many years you 're going to spend in prison ? kendall : why ca n't you understand how -- zach : i do understand , kendall . i do . that 's the problem . i understand that nothing has changed . it 's all exactly the way it was when i went missing . you think you can do everything on your own . well , you ca n't . that 's how we ended up right here . what are we ? hmm ? we 're not a team . so what are we ? kendall : zach , we are a team . zach : that 's not the way i see it . kendall : well , i 'm sorry for that . zach : yeah ? that 's nice . kendall : i am . zach : i need to know where this is coming from . kendall : i told you where this is coming from . zach : you told me what ? i 'm telling you -- greenlee forgives you , aidan forgives you , so there is something you 're not telling me . what is it ? kendall : i ca n't do this anymore , i -- zach : tell me . [ scene_break ] aidan : what are you getting at , jack ? jack : i 'm not sure , aidan -- just a feeling that there 's more to this story than anyone 's telling me . aidan : like what ? jack : i understand how you and kendall have gotten close . aidan : yeah , by digging our way through ice and snow to find our loved ones . that 's how close we got . jack : i 'm not insinuating anything here . aidan : listen , jack , i love your daughter more than anything in the whole world . there 's nothing that i would n't do for her . i would jump in front of a bullet for her . i would exchange my life for hers in a heartbeat . so anything you 're feeling or think you know other than that is irrelevant . jack : ok . aidan : uh -- that was n't very convincing . jack : let me make sure you 're clear on a couple of things . greenlee and i have n't always done the father / daughter thing very well -- sometimes it 's been my fault , sometimes hers . but through this whole ordeal , one thing i 've realized is that her dreams , her happiness , are the most important things to me . i like you . i think you 're a good man . but that 's my little girl , son . and anyone breaks her heart -- i mean anyone at all -- they are going to find in me the worst enemy they can imagine . aidan : and i would n't expect anything less . jack : so we understand each other ? aidan : yes , sir , we do . [ scene_break ] joe : i 'll give aidan a set of instructions and , of course , you 're going to be coming back here for tests anyway , starting monday . greenlee : why ? joe : why ? because we 'd miss you otherwise . greenlee : yeah -- liar . joe : uh - huh . so , you stick with the program , and we 'll let you go home . is that a deal ? greenlee : deal . thank you , joe . i just -- i feel like it 's a new beginning for me , you know ? like i got through this and now everything in front of me is just going to be great . does that sound crazy ? joe : wish all my patients were as optimistic as you are . greenlee : hmm . well , maybe they just did n't have as much reason to be . joe : hmm . oh , rebecca ? i want to have some additional blood work done on greenlee smythe . there 's something about the labs that 's not adding up . rebecca : all right , ok . joe : yeah . [ scene_break ] j.r. : so you do n't want me going anywhere near richie ? babe : no . j.r. : why ? babe : why ? because it 's none of your business -- that 's why . remember the new j.r. chandler , respecting limits ? j.r. : babe , listen , i know my place , ok ? i 'm your ex - husband . yeah , i 've made plenty of mistakes . i have no rights , except i 'm the father of a son who i do n't want anywhere near that lowlife . babe : why are you making such a big deal out of this ? yes , at one time , i was attracted to a guy named wes , but -- j.r. : and he turned out to be annie 's brother , richie . and in spite of all his lies , you still have feelings for him . my god , babe , did n't you learn anything by being with me ? babe : well , i 'm not planning on settling down with either one of you . j.r. : fine . so drop your present in the mail for richie and let him die his natural death , be done with it . you got a problem with that ? babe : i 'm not as callous as you are . j.r. : that 's right , i forgot -- you have feelings for this pathetic bum . babe : oh , go to hell . j.r. : i probably will . and as far as richie novak is concerned , he 's trouble , and i do n't want you going anywhere near him , and i definitely do n't want my son around him . babe : you do n't have a say in my life anymore , j.r . j.r. : on this issue , i 'm giving myself the say . you stay away from him , babe . i mean it .

hayley : i 'm hayley santos , and i 'd like to welcome you to a very special `` wave . `` as you can see , i 'm not in my studio in burbank . i 'm in pine valley , pennsylvania , which has been voted the best town in america . it also happens to be my hometown . i was n't born here , but i spent some of the happiest and most challenging years of my life in a place i 'm proud to call home . in the next hour , i 'm going to explore what makes pine valley the best town in the country . i 'm gon na show you the soul of this town , and the soul of any town is its people -- what the town 's given them and what they 've given back . so i 'm going to interview some die - hard pine valleyites who will reveal the heartbeat behind the best town in america . i was 16 , kind of goth . the polite version , a handful . the truth ? hell on wheels . but my dad and i survived . dad is adam chandler , founder of chandler enterprises -- a self - made man and proud of it . he was n't actually born here either , but like a lot of people who did n't live in mansions and may have come and gone , he has the same thoughts about this place . `` pine valley -- my home . `` [ scene_break ] adam : it was n't just a rivalry between me and pete cooney that brought me here , although a lot of people would like to believe that . no . i came here because of erica kane . the media portion of our company was shooting a film based on erica 's memoir `` raising kane . `` it 's a pity the movie did n't turn out , but i recognized the potential of this town . and i grabbed it . i moved my company headquarters here . the smartest decision i ever made . i put pine valley on the map . erica : i 've been told that i put pine valley on the map . of course , that is n't really true . i mean , not just one person can take all the credit for everything this town is , everything it has to offer . i confess that i did n't always appreciate pine valley . when i was growing up , i wanted to be anywhere but here . i wanted to be a star . and that meant hollywood or new york . so i went . and i became a star . but i soon realized that i did n't have to live in one of those places to be everything i wanted to be . everything i wanted was right here . [ scene_break ] joe : 40 years . huh . where i met ruth .

[ scene_break ] brooke : ha ha ! i rode into town on the back of my boyfriend 's motorcycle . and i will never forget my aunt phoebe standing in the door . she was holding a glass of sherry in her hand , and she had a look of absolute shock on her face . and that was the beginning of quite a ride . [ scene_break ] krystal : pine valley . ha ha ! that 's too cute . ha ha . but i had to meet my new son - in - law . so i came . babe and i spent most of our life on the move . so i never expected to stay . but i kept putting off the good - byes until one day it just -- it hit me . i had a shot at something i 'd never had -- home .

[ scene_break ] brot : you know , after iraq , home was the last place i wanted to go . hell , i did n't want to go anywhere , because i did n't think there was anyplace in the world where i could fit in . back home , i was the star of the football team , the most popular guy in school . and now when i think of a place called home , i do n't think of where i grew up . i think of pine valley . that 's weird , huh ? [ scene_break ] opal : the glamorama , the chicken shack . i may not feed or beautify the locals anymore , but i still love them -- every single last one of them . well , almost . palmer : she can deny it all she wants to , but i know that she loves me . [ scene_break ] david : oh , i 'm sure you 're expecting me to complain about the small - minded , ungrateful people here . but that 's not going to happen , because the truth is i do n't care what people think of me . i have done some of my best work here . i have saved the lives of countless pine valley citizens . and , yes , it 's true they have n't exactly embraced me , but i 'm not going anywhere . i plan on taking my last breath right here in pine valley .

[ scene_break ] hayley : i 've seen people do it for power , for money , for revenge , for escape . my high school boyfriend did it to give a girl a green card , but it means the most when the two go hand - in - hand . `` love & marriage in pine valley . `` erica : i was hoping you would n't go there . huh . ten times . adam : 13 if you count erica twice and liza three times . [ scene_break ] zach : well , i thought getting married on a boat was romantic . kendall : oh , it was , it was . but that was n't in pine valley . zach : ok . kendall : yeah , and i think when we retied the knot at pine valley hospital that , yeah , i really was not looking my best at all . zach : i think someone 's dropping a hint . kendall : well , yeah , do n't you think that a nice big ceremony would be fun ? our friends , our family . it does n't sound so bad , does it ? zach : it does n't sound bad at all .

[ scene_break ] tad : i love jamie every bit as much as you love miranda . i give you my word he is the sole reason that i did n't tell you about her the second i found out who she was . bianca : because babe and jamie had kidnapped james from the buchanans and the law was after them . tad : bianca , as a parent , you never stop asking yourself how far you 're prepared to go to protect your children . and for me , my answer was right there . you go the distance , no matter what that is . bianca : but you had to choose between jamie and j.r . tad : yeah , that 's right . and a flip of a coin was n't going to cut it . i mean , jamie and babe begged me not to tell j.r. about little james , and as much as i understood their point of view , i felt sorry for j.r . i mean , he deserved to know that his son was alive , and i was going to tell him . bianca : so what changed your mind ? tad : j.r. did . it seemed to me that no matter what i did or how hard i tried , i could n't get through to him . he just kept spiraling further and further out of control . i do n't know when i failed him or when it happened , but it 's perfectly obvious that the boy that i raised and loved -- still do love -- was just as capable of being cruel or cold as his father . bianca : yeah , i know . i 've seen it , too . tad : yeah , and the final straw was when he took a lead pipe to jamie 's head , nearly split his skull open . bianca : oh , my god . wow . david had told me about that , but was it really that bad ? tad : it was worse . i mean , as sickening and shocking as it was , the worst part was that it was n't all that surprising . i realized without even knowing it that i 'd stopped asking myself just how far j.r. was prepared to go to get what he wants . and so the only choice i had left was to stop him , to stop him from going after jamie and babe and using his own son to grind them into the dirt . bianca : so you decided that the best thing would be to let j.r. continue to believe that his son was dead . tad : i made a judgment call . bianca : but were n't you tempted to tell him after he gave miranda back ? tad : you 'll never know how much . but in the end , i decided to keep a secret . i made my choice , my decision based on admittedly selfish reasons . you , my love , have got to make up your own mind . bianca : there are just so many lives involved . there are so many people that are affected by what i decide . tad : ok , so break it down . if you think babe should be punished , then you 've got every right to see it through . if you do n't want to see j.r. go through the kind of hell that you did , then you do what you 've got to do . bianca : if i tell j.r. and you do n't , he 's going to hate you forever . tad : bianca , we 're halfway there already . and this may be the final push or it may be too late for j.r. and i no matter what happens . i just know one thing . i 'm not going to be the father who pits one son against another , and i 'm not going to be the man that hands dixie 's grandchild to adam chandler . if you tell j.r. , then so be it . i 'll understand and i 'll accept it and i 'll deal with whatever comes , because to be honest , a large slice of me really hates what we all did to you .

kendall goes to the hospital with zach afraid she will lose her baby . ryan comes to see her and they relive old memories which causes zach to feel alienated . dr. madden comes and tells kendall and ryan that she and the baby will be fine . but he tells zach he can not have sex with kendall throughout the pregnancy . krystal is able to convince the shrinks that adam is dangerous . he gets put in a room in restraints . joe then tells them they better get out of his hospital and stop playing their games . everybody is wondering who pushed di into the ice fishing hole . she meets jonathan and does not believe he 'd hurt her although tad suspects him . jamie suspects amanda after he overhears her threatening di in her hospital room . but nobody can prove anything . little does anybody know who really did it . they discover the mysterious pair of boots without the woman who wore them . they are probably brooke 's . dr. joe tells david hayward he will get to the bottom of what has happened . later we sees men 's shoes after joe has disappeared .

judge halkirk : it 's obvious that you both love your daughter . you want what 's best for her . mr. lavery 's care of emma over the past year has been exemplary . testimony from mrs. chandler 's therapist and the court - ordered psychiatric evaluation both agree she 's been rehabilitated . in addition , all criminal charges against her have been dismissed . therefore , it is my judgment that annie chandler is fit to share parenting with ryan lavery . i hereby submit my ruling in favor of joint custody . annie : [ crying ] oh !

[ scene_break ] judge halkirk : i 'm aware the parents tried and failed to reach a shared custody agreement . therefore , i 've determined a schedule . the child will reside with each parent on a weekly basis . since mr. lavery has had sole custody up till now , emma will spend the first week at mrs. chandler 's home beginning at 6 p.m. tonight .

[ scene_break ] greenlee : oh , my god , david . what did you do ? huh . you have n't changed a bit in the last year , have you ? keeping everything inside , not letting anyone in , especially someone that actually cares about you . what 's dragging you down ? i can feel it every time that you walk into the room . i know you want to stay in your son 's life and the strain that 's put on jake and amanda , but there 's more to it than that , more to it than just your devotion to your son . david : he 's not my son . that 's the problem . trevor is not my son . [ scene_break ] ryan : ok . well , something is on your mind , and it 's not business . so what 's going on ? erica : my heart 's just not in it anymore , i guess . ryan : into what ? into the marketing campaign ? into the development ? what ? erica : everything . i mean , i am looking at lip - gloss and blush , but my mind is focusing on those beautiful little children , their faces , those beautiful little children who are starving to death . and giving them food and holding them because there is nobody left to hold them . it just -- it felt so good . it felt so right . and this ? i mean , this just feels so trivial and even selfish . ryan : well , there is definitely no comparing the two . i 'll give you that . but you always have been a woman of multiple talents . and so there is no reason , that i see anyway , that you ca n't continue to pursue the philanthropy that you started in africa and just keep one hand on the tiller here . i mean , i personally remember how much you loved running enchantment , and this place needs the same creative spark that you had down there . erica : i 'm just not sure i can do that . i mean , what good is this ? i mean , how is any of this making the world a better place for anyone ? [ scene_break ] madison : i know you 're scared . so was i. i went through years of what you 've been going through . and not just the pain , but the humiliation , the sense of betrayal from being hurt by someone that you loved . that feeling that it 's somehow your fault , or that you failed in your marriage , in your life . but they 've been teaching me here every day that none of that is true . i was suffering just like you are , but not because of anything that i had done . we all deserve to live a life free from this , and we can have it . you 're in a safe place , emily , with friends , surrounded by women who all share the same feelings that you 've been going through . that 's why this place exists . it 's a place that you can get help . and i 'm not any sort of professional , so you will need to speak with a doctor , get examined . oh , dr. hubbard here is very experienced with this . in fact , he really helped me . he 's very good . [ scene_break ] greenlee : i do n't understand . trevor 's not yours ? david : i did n't always know trevor was n't my son . for months i had no doubt that he was mine . after everything they did to keep me from knowing about him -- pretending that he died at birth , sending him off to live with a nanny in hiding . jake and amanda were convinced that he was my son . therefore , he had to be my son . but when i finally held him in my arms , i felt so connected to him . i was his father in every way possible . it was n't until recently that i found out the truth . greenlee : oh , my god , david . i 'm so sorry . so that 's what you were talking about when you talked about the bond you have with a child that 's not yours biologically . you were n't even thinking about me and emma . you were talking about what you have with trevor . david : yeah . greenlee : but how could you keep it a secret ? how could you let everyone think he 's your son when he is n't ? david : because he still feels like my boy . i do n't love him any less . i do n't want to protect him any less ! in my mind , in my heart , nothing has changed ! greenlee : it has . especially if jake is trevor 's real father . is he ? do you even know ? tell the truth , david . who 's the father of that baby ? [ scene_break ] j.r. : it was n't a good time in my life . i was angry with amanda . i thought that she was my friend . it turns out that she was working for david , trying to seduce me , trying to get me drunk , all so david could lay claim to little adam . marissa : she regretted what she did . i mean , you both told me so . j.r. : yeah , she said that she felt guilty . but she also tried to terminate the child when she thought he was still mine . marissa : and you helped to talk her out of it ? j.r. : the idea of having a baby at that time -- it 's what helped me get my act together , get sober again . everybody thought i 'd be relieved when i found out the dates did n't match . the kid was n't mine , but inside i was disappointed . i have a son that brought me back , and suddenly he was gone ? i 'm sorry . i should n't be laying this on you . marissa : no . no , no , no , it 's ok . i mean , you 're supposed to be able to tell your wife how you feel , right ? j.r. : yeah . but i know how bad you want children . and now i might have another child with another woman . marissa : you know how much i adore little adam . and just because he is n't mine , it does n't make me love him any less . and if trevor turns out to be your son , then i 'll love him just as much . j.r. : everything that jake and amanda have been through with david , and now i 'm in the mix . i do n't like it . and i do n't like how this might turn out . marissa : we have to stop worrying about all the possibilities . we ca n't figure out anything until we know for sure who is trevor 's father . they 're testing david 's dna right now . you have to go get tested right away . [ scene_break ] amanda : we were pretty crazy back then . jake : yeah . like a couple of crazy teenagers . amanda : not that i complained . jake : i was so unsure about my relationship with tad , i remember . [ trevor fusses ] amanda : that is right . i was sure i 'd never have another real relationship again . jake : well , there 's something to be said for those crazy and wild days . you want something to eat ? you want a bottle ? amanda : we both should 've been more careful . jake : yeah , well , i 'm glad we were n't . trevor : dada . dada . jake : did he just say `` dada `` ? amanda : i think so . jake : you know , i feel like i had a connection with him from the minute i saw him in the sweltering barbados clinic . and i think i would 've had that connection even if he was n't your son . no matter what , i would 've -- i think . then my feelings for him just kept growing month after month . and i had a lot of feelings . you know , i felt really bad about all the deception and the lies to david , about him dying and everything . i mean , all of it . all of it . amanda : i remember when you showed me that house , showed me what you did to protect him , to hide him away . and when i saw trevor again for the first time since i 'd seen him when he was born , i just -- i fell in love with him all over again . jake : well , i brought you there earlier than planned . as much as i wanted to do it for you , i did it for myself , you know ? i think that we have both really dreamt about him being ours . i mean , ours , `` yours and mine really `` ours . but that had to be just too good to be true , do n't you think ? that kind of thing only happens in movies and fairy tales . i mean , um , it 's just me hoping . we do n't know anything for sure yet . amanda : no . no , we do n't . [ scene_break ] frankie : no fractures , physically should be ok , and she wants to stay . so thanks . madison : that 's why i 'm here . frankie : you know , it 's not easy for women when they come here to agree to see a male doctor , especially a brother . we still need a lot more women mds volunteering . but thanks for helping emily accept me like that and helping her to understand what it is we do here . that 's important , so you did a great job . madison : well , this is a great place . there needs to be a lot more places like it out there . frankie : and people like you helping out . madison : no , this place has done a lot more for me than i 've done for it . in fact , everyone seems to be doing that lately -- you , your family , erica . even though i just started working for her , i feel like i 'm already starting to realize this potential in myself that i never knew was there , something beyond just being a rich girl controlled by her father and her husband . frankie : well , we make our own opportunities in life , madison , just like you 're doing here and over at fusion . i hope this does n't come out condescending or anything , but i 'm really proud of you . madison : does n't sound condescending at all . that sounds nice . thank you . that means a lot . you know , i started out doing all of this -- helping here and working at fusion -- in part because i wanted to prove to you and your family that i am not the same person who did all of those horrible things . but i feel like it 's becoming even more than that . i do n't know , like maybe i could even help change lives . frankie : feels good , does n't it ? madison : very good . frankie : hmm . [ scene_break ] ryan : think of it this way . no , you 're definitely not feeding the hungry or saving children . i see that , and i hear you . but in a way , i think you 're still helping people . the women that buy the products here at fusion -- i mean , you 're giving them a sense of glamour . you 're giving them that erica kane fantasy . you are . you are , and that 's always been your philosophy -- to inspire . whether it be here or on your television show or at enchantment . erica : that was a really valiant effort . thank you very much . but , ryan , the problem is at night women just wipe their makeup off . they just wash it right down the sink . i mean , what we do here -- this is just like cotton candy . it just dissolves into nothing . and i want to do more than that . i want to leave a footprint behind me , something positive and something permanent , more than just a smear of lipstick . randi : sorry to interrupt . erica , you have a phone call on line 3 . she would n't leave a name , but she said you 'd be expecting her call . erica : ok . thank you . ryan : mm - hmm . hmm . randi : she has n't been the same since africa , huh ? ryan : no . no . but you saw the show . i do n't think many people would be able to come out of that unaffected . randi : but before , she was -- ryan : no , that 's ok . `` before , she was -- `` randi : no , she just -- she ran the company differently . it was all about erica . val : you were going to say `` diva , `` and you would not be wrong . erica : no , ryan , has no idea . so just keep it simple , and keep it a surprise . ryan : life has been very good to erica , and i think she 's just looking for a way to give back . and i think africa was the catalyst for that . erica : ok . i want you to get these all back down to marketing . and since marketing is not impressing me at all , i want you two to put your heads together . i want you to come up with something . think about it . i mean , i ca n't put my finger on it , but it just -- it needs to be more contemporary . you know , just with it . try to get in touch with that zeitgeist . i know , that sounds ridiculous , but do it . just work with it , ok ? and , ryan , we have that conference call with the l.a. distributor . ryan : right . randi : ok . so is this gon na be a little job or a big one ? val : try impossible . [ scene_break ] amanda : we found out that david 's probably not trevor 's father . i thought i would never be rid of that man , but now it actually looks like we might be . yes . yeah . i 'm sorry . i know he 's your dad . i just -- marissa : no . no need to apologize . i know what he 's put you through . [ trevor fusses ] marissa : wow . funny . i came here today thinking that you were my little brother . we 're either not related at all or -- amanda : or you 're his stepmother . marissa : well , i 'd definitely have to learn how to wrap my head around that . j.r. : i guess we 'll find out soon enough -- about david or the two of us . find out one way or another . angie : all right , guys , let 's get you to a room and get you swabbed . jake : right . amanda : you do n't think much of me , do you ? marissa : what do you mean ? amanda : a woman who sleeps with three men in that short period of time -- i mean , `` slut `` is the word that comes to mind . marissa : i do n't pass judgments like that , amanda . and besides , whatever happened led to that beautiful little boy in your arms . amanda : if trevor does turn out to be j.r. 's , how do you think he 's gon na react ? how will you react ? [ scene_break ] david : i do n't know who the father is . greenlee : but it 's probably jake ? david : it 's possible , yes . but in the beginning , amanda thought that it was j.r. 's baby . she was pretty `` active `` back then . greenlee : what changed her mind about j.r. ? david : the dates . after her first checkup , she said that the conception date did n't match up for j.r. that 's when she was convinced that the baby was mine . and that 's when all their manipulation started . for months amanda did everything she could to keep me from knowing the truth . the idea that i could be her baby 's father was terrifying to her . greenlee : but the baby was n't yours . so the date that they figured it from must 've been wrong , as well . the father could still be j.r . david : and after i had my own dna test and i realized trevor was n't mine , i assumed it was jake . but honestly , all i really cared about was that trevor was not mine . greenlee : what now ? david : i was n't gon na tell anyone . ever . greenlee : you were n't -- you really were n't going to tell amanda , the boy 's mother ? or jake , who loves trevor just as much as you do ? you were n't even gon na say a word ? david : no , i was n't . greenlee : david , you have to . before another day goes by , you have to let them know -- david : no ! i 'm not gon na tell them a damn thing ! [ scene_break ] randi : i wish i could be more specific , but neither could erica . it just was n't enough . marketing is not a happy group right now . they are scrambling to put something together more hip . madison : wish i could help , but i 've never quite considered myself hip . shallow sometimes , yes , but never hip . randi : i overheard erica talking to ryan . she said her heart just was n't in the business anymore . she wanted to find a way to give back , not just run a company . madison : that makes sense . i mean , look at what she did with the dance marathon . and i understand . if there is such a thing as karma , i have a lot of catching up to do . randi : well , you 've made a good start giving back time at the miranda center . madison : yeah , but will that make up for everything that i did to your family ? i do n't think so . randi : well , you 've taken the first step . keep walking the good walk . madison : did n't fusion do a green line of products ? randi : yeah . it did pretty well . madison : yeah , because fusion products are always the best . it 's a classy boutique operation . randi : right . so what are you thinking ? madison : what if fusion did a whole line of cosmetics where the profits went to a charitable cause ? profits turns into nonprofit . randi : hmm . that 's actually a great idea . you should pitch that . madison : oh , i do n't know . i 'm new around here . and anyway , business is about making money , right ? i would n't want to sound like i was poking my nose in where it did n't belong . randi : yeah , well , you 're not gon na know unless you try . madison : you 've been here longer . why do n't you ? i 'll stand behind you . erica : `` stand behind you `` over what ? [ scene_break ] marissa : well , i 'm sorry that i did this . amanda : you ? marissa : i opened up the whole can of worms about trevor 's paternity . i just wanted so badly to believe david , that he would n't lie about something as horrible as having this disease , and now look what 's happened . amanda : what 's happened is jake and i finally have some hope of being rid of david , that this baby could really truly be ours without him making claims on him . and the last thing you need to do is apologize for that . i should be thanking you . now we finally have a chance . we 've been living a nightmare for so long . now we can really truly give trevor a real father , one that can only make his life better . marissa : `` trevor 's real father `` ? david may be my biological father , but my real father died in a car accident with my real mother . they are the ones who raised me and loved me . and for me to consider david a more real parent , because he just happened to sleep with krystal back then just would n't be right . any more than it would be right for trevor to consider j.r. or david more real than jake . jake has been trevor 's father from the beginning , and he always will be . no dna test can change that . [ scene_break ] j.r. : we 're not gon na talk about this ? jake : well , i do n't know what there is to talk about . i mean , i suppose when we find out the truth -- and it depends what that is -- you know , we 'll discuss it . j.r. : well , when marissa first gave me the news , after the shock wore off i was like , `` wow . is this some kind of gift ? `` do you remember when amanda first got pregnant ? babe had just died . and somehow it felt right -- that i have a child in my life . jake : all i know is you treated amanda like crap . j.r. : yeah , i did . i was mean to her . you , on the other hand -- you were her salvation . jake : well , we love each other no matter what . j.r. : and that 's all that matters . [ scene_break ] david : it 's possible neither jake nor j.r. is the father . who knows how many other men amanda slept with back then ? and why should jake get to be trevor 's father after what he did ? he used that boy to tear my heart out ! he deliberately made me think my own son was dead . you , of all people , know what that means to me , greenlee . to lose another child ? greenlee : what they did to you was horrible , yes . but ca n't you be not as horrible just for once ? why is that so hard for you ? david : what is the point ? you do n't have a clue as to what i 've been through all these months . greenlee : yeah , you 've proven what a good man you can be . look at what you 've done for me , sacrificed for me , saved my life . should n't you put as much into saving your own life ? why ca n't you do that ? why ca n't you save yourself ? david : why do n't you get it ? ! i am saving myself with my son ! trevor is saving me ! and he may be my last chance . [ scene_break ] erica : that 's an amazing idea . randi : well , actually -- madison : actually , that 's not the whole idea . randi thought fusion could do a whole nonprofit line . erica : oh , i like this . and we could make sure that the profits go to the miranda center , and i could even open up more miranda centers around the country . i love this . i 'm gon na kick this around with ryan . i 'm gon na talk to legal and marketing and -- great . randi : i do n't get it . why did n't you tell her that it was your idea ? madison : i owe you a lot , including this job . so throwing a little credit your way is the least that i could do . [ scene_break ] j.r. : i was watching you out in the corridor , watching you hold that baby , the way you looked at him . it was exactly the way that i used to look at little adam . well , it 's exactly the way i still look at him . you love that boy unequivocally and , my man , that is lightning in a bottle . i want you to know i hope that this test proves that you 're the father . i want to make a promise to you . trevor 's always gon na be your son . that 's never gon na change . jake : wow . i just must be a really lousy judge of character , because i would 've thought you would 've had a completely different reaction . i was -- i was wrong . j.r. : maybe . or maybe i 've changed a bit . jake : well , you 're a good man , j.r. , you are . so thank you . [ scene_break ] marissa : i 've been defending david for months . and now if he is n't even sick -- everyone told me that i was crazy to believe him , but i did . damn it , i did . amanda : you were n't alone . i believed him , too . it almost cost me my relationship with jake . he knew from the very beginning that david was lying about his disease . marissa : why do you think he did it ? amanda : he felt backed into a corner . he felt everyone ganging up on him , i guess . maybe this was his way of clearing the playing field . marissa : do you think he knew that trevor was n't his ? amanda : i do n't know . if he did -- you know , it 's insane to think that he would fight for a child that way that was n't his own . marissa : maybe it is n't so crazy . is n't that what jake has been doing -- fighting for a child that was n't his own ? amanda : you 're right . my god , david loves trevor . no matter the results , it may never be over . david may never give up . [ scene_break ] david : i have worked so hard to get where i am . all my life i 've been driven to succeed , and i did . my walls are covered with plaques , awards , certificates . i have saved countless lives . i have basked in all the praise and adulation . i really am the best at what i do . but what do i have ultimately in the end ? nothing . in the end , i leave nothing . here lies a once great doctor , one of many . please . there 's no pride in what i do anymore , greenlee . i just go through the motions out of selfishness and ego . because the truth is all my life all i 've ever wanted was one thing -- a family . my own family -- a wife , children . [ sighs ] the promise that comes with growing old and watching your kids grow and flourish . the only thing greater than pride in oneself is the pride you have in your children , to stand there at the back of the room and watch your son 's first piano recital or your daughter kicking in the winning goal , their first of many diplomas . children -- what so many people take for granted , and what i just ca n't seem to stop losing . greenlee : what price to you pay if you lie to your child ? how many lives would be ruined ? how many hearts broken ? david : that 's what it is , is n't it ? hmm . yep . that 's what it always comes back down to . say it , greenlee . you feel the same way as everyone else -- that i 'm evil , that i 'm some kind of monster . go ahead , say it . you 'd happen to be right . that is the sickening truth . [ scene_break ] ryan : hey . erica : hey . ryan : i 'm just going over the quarterly report here , and the numbers are n't nearly as bad as we thought . there might be a light at the end of the tunnel . erica : oh , that 's so good ! ryan : yeah . erica : then let 's shine it on something meaningful . ryan : what do you mean ? erica : i just heard the most wonderful idea . it reminds me of exactly what we were talking about , and it 's gon na feed itself publicity wise , especially once i throw my weight behind it . ryan : what are you talking about ? erica : ok . what do you think about a whole network of miranda centers all over the country ? ryan : wow . uh , i think that sounds like a great idea . but , um , you know , maybe we should focus on fusion first . erica : oh , i am . that 's exactly what i 'm talking about -- creating a line of fusion cosmetics that is completely nonprofit . all of the net earnings go to building miranda centers all across the country . what do you think ? ryan : i think that you have never , ever been this happy . that 's what i think . [ scene_break ] frankie : all right , buddy , you know what to do . jake : sorry i have coffee breath . frankie : all righty . i 'll be back . and here you go . angie : all right . thanks . the tests on david are almost done . listen , i want you to tell me exactly what happened with amanda when she first got pregnant . frankie : well , you know she asked me to make it look like it was j.r. 's because she was certain it was david 's . but then david got involved , realizing that amanda set him up . and because amanda was convinced that david was the father , everybody else 's mind was set . angie : and then the baby was born early , or so they thought . he was probably born right on time , meaning that the scenario that amanda cooked up to deceive david about j.r. being the father was probably the real story . frankie : that or either jake is actually the father . it 's complicated . angie : and ironic . maybe the truth was the truth was all along . j.r. : so how long do we have to wait ? frankie : not too long for david , a little longer for you two . jake : well , if david turns out to be the father , the rest of this is moot , right ? we 'll be right back where we started . [ scene_break ] greenlee : do i have to say anything , david ? you 've already said it all . david : well , then i guess i should go . greenlee : look , i 'm truly sorry for your pain . i know it 's for real . i know it hurts because i know what children mean to you . i was there when you lost leora . at least , now i understand what 's been haunting you . david : but that still does n't change how you feel about me . greenlee : i do feel for you , david . whatever you 've done , however misguided , you and i will always share a special bond . but do i think that you 're gon na find forgiveness out there from the rest of them ? honestly , no . do i hope you find what you 're looking for ? the family ? the children ? god , yes . but that 's not trevor . trevor is a lie , and until you tell everyone the truth , until jake and amanda know who trevor 's real father really is , you 'll never find that happiness . do n't you see ? you 're trying to hold on to something that was never real in the first place , and eventually that 's going to tear you apart . david : call them . call them . go ahead , tell them exactly how i 've destroyed their lives . if you can do it , go ahead , greenlee . i deserve it . but it 's up to you . [ scene_break ] erica : and we can link the advertising , too . i mean , sell fusion cosmetics , of course , but also at the same time raise awareness for all the miranda centers across the country . this really can work , do n't you think ? ryan : absolutely . we will make it work . erica : oh , i love it when you talk like that . yore so supportive . ryan : well , you give me something to be supportive about . i mean , this is a very easy idea to get behind . erica : and you make me feel so alive . it 's what i love about you . [ scene_break ] greenlee : i ca n't . you saved my life . i ca n't blow yours apart . [ scene_break ] angie : i 've got the results of david 's dna test . comparing it against trevor 's dna , it is virtually impossible that david is trevor 's father . amanda : oh , my god . ohh -- jake : so , well , that -- that means it comes down to you and me . so one of us is trevor 's real dad .

erica is busy at fusion but her mind is elsewhere . ryan tries to get her attention , but with no luck . erica lets him know that her mind was wondering . amanda lets jake know that he had never stopped fighting for trevor and wonders if jake could be trevor 's father . jake has his doubts as to what amanda is saying . greenlee demands to know from david what he had done . david tells greenlee that he is not trevor 's father . greenlee urges david to let amanda and jake and amanda know the truth , but david refuses . ryan questions erica as to what is on her mind . erica lets him know that her mind is on the children in africa and that fusion is trivial to her . frankie watches madison as she offers encouragement and help to one of the women at the miranda center . madison sees frankie and tells the woman that he will also help her . greenlee asks david if jake is trevor 's father or if he knows . j.r. tells marissa that he had talked amanda out of having an abortion . marissa urges j.r. to be tested to see if he is trevor 's father . jake holds trevor in his arms as trevor calls jake `` da - da . `` j.r. and marissa approach jake and amanda . greenlee urges david to tell jake and amanda the truth , but david insists that he is not telling them anything . madison comes up with a good idea for fusion products in which they would come up with a whole new line and use the proceeds for charity . when they pitch the new idea to erica , she loves the idea . madison lets erica believe that it was all randi 's idea . erica tells ryan about the idea , who is behind erica 100 % percent . jake and j.r. are given a dna test to see who is trevor 's father . j.r. tells jake that he will be trevor 's father no matter what . angie tells jake , amanda , j.r. and marissa that david is not trevor 's father . david hands greenlee the cell phone and tells her to call jake and amanda the truth , but greenlee refuses .

jake : slobs . amanda : do you think annie 's ok ? jake : what 's your definition of ok ? amanda : well , i like her . i just think maybe she 's not the best person for me to hang out with with my family history . jake : babe , you are nothing like annie , ok ? you 're nothing like your mother , so do n't even start going there . you are beautiful . you 're stable . you 're grounded . you 're honest . amanda : anyway , i canceled my plans with her , so maybe i 'll go down to the nursery instead . jake : yeah , go see all the new babies . amanda : our baby might be down there someday . jake : yes , that 's true . i ca n't wait .

[ scene_break ] alan : so , in your expert opinion , the window of death for michael cambias was between 8 : 00 p.m. august 28 and 4 : 00 a.m. august 29 ? woman : yes , that 's correct . alan : no further questions , your honor . livia : so , 8 : 00 and 4 : 00 , august 28 and august 29 . woman : yes . livia : and you can testify to that even though the body was n't found until september 22 , almost a month later ? woman : the rate of decomposition can be ascertained to a very high percentage of accuracy . livia : really ? now , is n't it also true that a body decomposes at a much faster rate if it 's been frozen and then thawed than if it 's never been frozen at all ? woman : that discrepancy has been taken into account in our calculations . livia : absolutely . did you happen to be in town on september 14 last year ? woman : i was , yes . livia : do you remember there were all these electrical storms and there were power outages all over town ? woman : yes . livia : well , i mean , is n't it likely that during one of those power outages , the refrigeration unit might have shut off long enough for michael cambias ' body to thaw and then refreeze when the unit went on ? woman : i suppose so . livia : you suppose so ? when your freezer turns off , the meat defrosts and then freezes again when the freezer turns back on -- which is terrible for ice cream , by the way . but then the body would defrost and refreeze and defrost and refreeze , and would n't that have an effect on the data of the decomposition rate ? woman : there are always variables , of course . livia : so since we have no way of knowing how long or how many power outages happened during that week or how long michael cambias ' body was hanging in that freezer in that warehouse or how many times that body defrosted and froze and defrosted and froze , then there 's really no way for you to ascertain the exact time for the window of michael cambias ' death , is there ? woman : yes , that 's true . livia : so then your guess of the time of death is nothing more than a highly -- highly educated guess , is n't it ? alan : objection . livia : i have nothing further . judge : this would be a good time to break for lunch . we 'll stand in recess until 2 : 00 . bailiff : all rise .

[ scene_break ] liza : ok , what if my instincts are wrong ? right ? look , damon has already got a record . if i go to the cops with this , he will be the number - one suspect . and then just by getting accused of it , he will probably lose his job , and then how is he going to support bailey and stuart ? tad : listen , that 's not your responsibility , ok ? and it 's not mine . if he 's innocent , he 's got nothing to worry about . if he is n't , then he has to answer for what happened here last night . liza : oh , god . you know bailey will hate me forever . tad : well , that 's better than bailey getting nailed for accessory after the fact . liza , you got excellent instincts . if you 're even remotely suspicious , you ca n't keep this to yourself . we 've got to call jesse . liza : all right . you know what ? just let me talk to damon first .

[ scene_break ] ryan : yeah , i 'm working a little hard right now . sort of in overdrive for the moment , but you know , once we get down there on vacation , believe me , i 'll be able to sort of kick back and relax , i promise . erica : ryan , i told you i 'd go away with you for a few days , but it sounds to me like you 've got us so booked up that we are n't going to have any time just to be together . maybe we wo n't even be able to remember what day it is . ryan : and you think i 'm looking for another way to get my mind off of -- the fact that it 's valentine 's day -- greenlee ? erica : you 've been very open about how you feel . but i think maybe you 're going over -- maybe . just going overboard a little bit . look , i think the idea of escaping to a tropical island with you -- i think that 's wonderful . if you want to go horseback riding , you want to go parasailing , i 'm going to saddle up , i 'm going to fly right beside you . but i do n't need any of that to have fun . i just need you .
