1
00:00:05,505 --> 00:00:06,673
>> Daniel: Right on time.
2
00:00:08,808 --> 00:00:13,680
>> Heather: You said
it was important.
3
00:00:13,747 --> 00:00:15,115
Lucy isn't around?
4
00:00:15,181 --> 00:00:19,419
>> Daniel: No, um, she is, uh,
out for the afternoon,
5
00:00:19,486 --> 00:00:21,221
after school thing.
6
00:00:21,287 --> 00:00:22,255
>> Heather: Oh, right.
7
00:00:22,322 --> 00:00:24,624
Um, watercolor class.
8
00:00:24,691 --> 00:00:27,961
She's probably gonna be
an artist like her dad.
9
00:00:28,027 --> 00:00:29,028
>> Daniel: Right.
10
00:00:29,095 --> 00:00:29,996
Um, please sit down.
11
00:00:30,063 --> 00:00:31,231
Here, let me take your coat.
12
00:00:31,297 --> 00:00:34,100
>> Heather: Okay, great.
13
00:00:43,910 --> 00:00:45,311
So?
14
00:00:45,378 --> 00:00:48,448
>> Daniel: Do you want a water
or something?
15
00:00:48,515 --> 00:00:49,582
>> Heather: No, I'm-- I'm good.
16
00:00:49,649 --> 00:00:50,350
I'm good.
17
00:00:50,417 --> 00:00:51,484
>> Daniel: Are you sure?
18
00:00:51,551 --> 00:00:53,019
I mean, I can make coffee.
19
00:00:55,321 --> 00:01:01,661
>> Heather: I don't think you
invited me over here to hydrate.
20
00:01:01,728 --> 00:01:04,998
>> Daniel: Yeah. Um,
no, you're right.
21
00:01:05,064 --> 00:01:08,067
No, I-- I did not. Um...
22
00:01:11,504 --> 00:01:15,041
you know, the other night,
you, uh,
23
00:01:15,108 --> 00:01:22,715
well, you dropped the L-bomb
on me and then you just left.
24
00:01:22,782 --> 00:01:25,518
I don't really know
what to do with that.
25
00:01:25,585 --> 00:01:31,724
>> Heather: Okay. Well,
maybe I can help you.
26
00:01:31,791 --> 00:01:32,725
>> Victoria: Hello, Mom.
27
00:01:32,792 --> 00:01:33,593
How are you?
28
00:01:33,660 --> 00:01:34,861
>> Nikki: Oh, hi, darling.
29
00:01:34,928 --> 00:01:37,163
Join me.
30
00:01:37,230 --> 00:01:39,032
>> Victoria: I would love to,
but I'm just ordering
31
00:01:39,098 --> 00:01:40,099
some food to go.
32
00:01:40,166 --> 00:01:41,935
I just have so much
to get done today.
33
00:01:42,001 --> 00:01:44,971
>> Nikki: Now, you can't spare
15 minutes for your mother?
34
00:01:45,038 --> 00:01:47,106
>> Victoria: Mom,
I wish I could.
35
00:01:47,173 --> 00:01:49,142
>> Nikki: It won't work.
36
00:01:49,209 --> 00:01:50,810
>> Victoria: What won't work?
37
00:01:50,877 --> 00:01:52,212
>> Nikki: The excuses.
38
00:01:52,278 --> 00:01:53,546
>> Victoria: I'm not.
39
00:01:53,613 --> 00:01:55,014
>> Nikki: Yes, you are.
40
00:01:55,081 --> 00:01:59,986
You're trying to avoid me
and I think I know why.

>> Adam: Our, uh, E-Ventures
negotiation is on track.
48
00:02:37,891 --> 00:02:40,059
Nick and I have been working
with the acquisition team
49
00:02:40,126 --> 00:02:43,396
to facilitate a move
to the Newman umbrella.
50
00:02:43,463 --> 00:02:46,432
>> Victor: Excellent work.
51
00:02:46,499 --> 00:02:53,072
>> Adam: Well, I could not have
done it without my brother.
52
00:02:53,139 --> 00:02:56,676
>> Victor: Do you know how much
I like to hear that?
53
00:02:56,743 --> 00:02:59,512
>> Adam: That's why I said it.
54
00:02:59,579 --> 00:03:02,615
>> Victor: You know,
you may think it's corny,
55
00:03:02,682 --> 00:03:06,219
but I-- I can feel the different
energy in the building.
56
00:03:06,286 --> 00:03:09,923
More trust, collaboration,
all of that.
57
00:03:09,989 --> 00:03:12,091
>> Adam: Nick and I have done
all that?
58
00:03:12,158 --> 00:03:14,394
>> Victor: My sons and
the family working together
59
00:03:14,460 --> 00:03:16,696
instead of against each other.
60
00:03:16,763 --> 00:03:19,299
It warms the cockles
of my heart, son.
61
00:03:19,365 --> 00:03:21,100
>> Adam: Well, I think it's
making a big difference
62
00:03:21,167 --> 00:03:25,405
to all of us, Dad and we have
you to thank for, dare I say,
63
00:03:25,471 --> 00:03:29,375
pretty much
strong arming us into it.
64
00:03:29,442 --> 00:03:33,313
>> Victor: I'll make a promise
to you.
65
00:03:33,379 --> 00:03:38,084
If you and your brother continue
to bury your animosities,
66
00:03:38,151 --> 00:03:40,920
you'll move mountains together.
67
00:03:46,693 --> 00:03:49,762
>> Sally: Hey there.
68
00:03:49,829 --> 00:03:53,600
>> Nick: Hey.
69
00:03:53,666 --> 00:03:55,969
>> Sally: Coffee break?
70
00:03:56,035 --> 00:03:58,705
>> Nick: Mm-hmm. Yeah.
71
00:03:58,771 --> 00:04:01,074
>> Sally: Wasn't Sharon's
launch party great?
72
00:04:01,140 --> 00:04:02,542
>> Nick: It was.
73
00:04:02,609 --> 00:04:05,244
>> Sally: Yeah, what she's doing
with Cassidy First is just
74
00:04:05,311 --> 00:04:07,947
really inspiring.
75
00:04:08,014 --> 00:04:10,216
>> Nick: It really is.
76
00:04:10,283 --> 00:04:13,686
>> Sally: And you and Adam
working together, it's
77
00:04:13,753 --> 00:04:17,590
also inspiring.
78
00:04:17,657 --> 00:04:21,260
>> Nick: You mean because it
didn't, uh, end in a cage fight?
79
00:04:21,327 --> 00:04:22,996
>> Sally: Well, I mean,
from what Adam said,
80
00:04:23,062 --> 00:04:26,032
I'm sensing a real breakthrough.
81
00:04:26,099 --> 00:04:28,434
>> Nick: Well, Adam is, uh,
clearly keeping you
82
00:04:28,501 --> 00:04:29,502
well informed.
83
00:04:29,569 --> 00:04:32,071
Showing up to Sharon's
launch party wasn't just
84
00:04:32,138 --> 00:04:34,240
a casual date, huh?
85
00:04:34,307 --> 00:04:37,210
Looks like you two are giving
your relationship another shot.
86
00:04:45,351 --> 00:04:52,025
>> Sally: Adam and I
have been reconnecting.
87
00:04:52,091 --> 00:04:55,061
I'm not exactly sure
of the status,
88
00:04:55,128 --> 00:05:00,500
but it seems like it might be
headed in that direction.
89
00:05:00,566 --> 00:05:01,734
>> Nick: Are you happy?
90
00:05:04,637 --> 00:05:09,909
Then, I'm happy for you.
91
00:05:09,976 --> 00:05:11,344
>> Sally: Really?
92
00:05:11,411 --> 00:05:14,647
>> Nick: Yeah, I am.
93
00:05:14,714 --> 00:05:17,650
You've always led with
your heart and uh,
94
00:05:17,717 --> 00:05:20,153
speaking from experience,
right or wrong, you go
95
00:05:20,219 --> 00:05:23,256
where your heart takes you.
96
00:05:23,322 --> 00:05:24,657
And it's taking you to him.
97
00:05:24,724 --> 00:05:27,026
So...
98
00:05:27,093 --> 00:05:31,097
I'm really pulling
for you two this time.
99
00:05:31,164 --> 00:05:34,834
>> Sally: I'm so sorry for
the pain that I've caused you.
100
00:05:34,901 --> 00:05:36,202
>> Nick: It's okay, seriously.
101
00:05:36,269 --> 00:05:38,204
We're good.
102
00:05:38,271 --> 00:05:42,008
>> Sally: Okay. Friends?
103
00:05:48,781 --> 00:05:50,783
>> Nick: Okay. Friends.
104
00:05:55,188 --> 00:05:56,189
>> Sally: Thank you.
105
00:06:15,241 --> 00:06:17,977
>> Nick: What?
106
00:06:18,044 --> 00:06:20,313
>> Sharon: You're hurting more
than you're letting on,
107
00:06:20,379 --> 00:06:21,380
aren't you?
108
00:06:23,349 --> 00:06:24,951
>> Victoria: How are you doing?
109
00:06:25,017 --> 00:06:28,020
Are you still worried
about Seth?
110
00:06:28,087 --> 00:06:34,660
>> Nikki: I am tired of people
tiptoeing around me.
111
00:06:34,727 --> 00:06:37,163
Worried that I'm gonna take
a drink or that they might say
112
00:06:37,230 --> 00:06:39,832
something that will send me
into some kind of an episode.
113
00:06:39,899 --> 00:06:41,067
>> Victoria: Mom.
114
00:06:41,134 --> 00:06:45,805
>> Nikki: I am so sorry that all
of you have to feel that way.
115
00:06:45,872 --> 00:06:48,007
>> Victoria: I have every faith
in you.
116
00:06:48,074 --> 00:06:50,510
You're going to beat this and
you know that I'm gonna be there
117
00:06:50,576 --> 00:06:52,378
for you no matter what, right?
118
00:06:52,445 --> 00:06:53,813
>> Nikki: I do.
119
00:06:53,880 --> 00:06:56,549
And I'm very grateful.
120
00:06:56,616 --> 00:06:59,819
But it seems that
I have a small battalion
121
00:06:59,886 --> 00:07:03,756
of people who want
to support my recovery.
122
00:07:03,823 --> 00:07:07,927
All I want to do now is be here
for you. So, what is going on
123
00:07:07,994 --> 00:07:08,895
with Claire?
124
00:07:08,961 --> 00:07:10,696
>> Victoria: I don't want
to burden you.
125
00:07:10,763 --> 00:07:12,198
>> Nikki: It's not a burden.
126
00:07:12,265 --> 00:07:14,734
If anything,
it would be very helpful.
127
00:07:14,801 --> 00:07:18,671
I have been coddled
and protected so much lately,
128
00:07:18,738 --> 00:07:21,440
it would feel wonderful
to be useful.
129
00:07:21,507 --> 00:07:23,810
So, darling, please.
130
00:07:23,876 --> 00:07:27,380
If anything is troubling you,
anything at all,
131
00:07:27,446 --> 00:07:29,415
I want to know about it.
132
00:07:29,482 --> 00:07:32,652
>> Victoria: And I would love
to tell you.
133
00:07:32,718 --> 00:07:36,122
Although, for the first time,
in a while, Claire is actually
134
00:07:36,189 --> 00:07:37,757
not my main concern.
135
00:07:37,824 --> 00:07:39,559
Dad is.
136
00:07:39,625 --> 00:07:41,694
>> Adam: I'm grateful that
you trust Nick and me
137
00:07:41,761 --> 00:07:45,097
to be co-CEO's.
138
00:07:45,164 --> 00:07:48,534
But I'm even more grateful for
an opportunity to prove myself.
139
00:07:48,601 --> 00:07:54,574
To you, to the family,
to all the doubters.
140
00:07:54,640 --> 00:07:57,844
And I'm gonna enjoy this,
every minute of it,
141
00:07:57,910 --> 00:08:01,614
for as long as it lasts.
142
00:08:01,681 --> 00:08:04,050
>> Victor: What's that
supposed to mean?
143
00:08:04,116 --> 00:08:04,951
>> Adam: Come on, Dad.
144
00:08:05,017 --> 00:08:07,987
We know that this
is a temporary gig.
145
00:08:08,054 --> 00:08:09,622
Victoria waltzes back in here.
146
00:08:09,689 --> 00:08:10,790
She wants her job back.
147
00:08:10,857 --> 00:08:13,993
It's gonna be musical chairs
all over again and someone
148
00:08:14,060 --> 00:08:15,895
might end up out on their ass.
149
00:08:15,962 --> 00:08:21,734
>> Victor: Son, I understand
Victoria's decision,
150
00:08:21,801 --> 00:08:24,103
but that doesn't mean that
I will use you and your brother
151
00:08:24,170 --> 00:08:25,538
as placeholders.
152
00:08:25,605 --> 00:08:28,074
>> Adam: Okay. That's easy
to say now, but when the time
153
00:08:28,140 --> 00:08:31,944
comes, I assume
all bets are gonna be off,
154
00:08:32,011 --> 00:08:33,412
>> Victor: Sit down.
155
00:08:41,153 --> 00:08:43,222
I'm gonna say it once.
156
00:08:43,289 --> 00:08:47,393
Your place at my company
is secure.
157
00:08:47,460 --> 00:08:49,862
You got that?
158
00:08:49,929 --> 00:08:51,063
>> Adam: Understood.
159
00:08:51,130 --> 00:08:53,866
>> Victor: But don't you give me
a reason to change my mind.
160
00:08:53,933 --> 00:08:57,503
>> Adam: No,
those days are gone, okay?
161
00:08:57,570 --> 00:09:02,208
I'm with you. All in, 100%.
162
00:09:02,275 --> 00:09:05,278
Things are going well
in every facet of my life.
163
00:09:05,344 --> 00:09:06,879
Personal and professional.
164
00:09:06,946 --> 00:09:09,282
I'm not about to screw that up.
165
00:09:09,916 --> 00:09:13,552
>> Daniel: You can understand
my confusion, right?
166
00:09:13,619 --> 00:09:17,790
>> Heather: Well, at least one
of us isn't confused.
167
00:09:17,857 --> 00:09:20,559
I meant it.
168
00:09:20,626 --> 00:09:25,665
I'm falling back
in love with you.
169
00:09:25,731 --> 00:09:27,233
>> Daniel: Yeah. Um...
170
00:09:27,300 --> 00:09:30,336
I don't know what to do
with that.
171
00:09:30,403 --> 00:09:32,305
>> Heather: You don't have
to say anything.
172
00:09:32,371 --> 00:09:35,341
Just keep it in your pocket
for a rainy day.
173
00:09:35,408 --> 00:09:38,177
You know, Heather loves me.
174
00:09:38,244 --> 00:09:42,481
Heather really loves me.
175
00:09:42,548 --> 00:09:47,286
>> Daniel: So that--
that kiss on New Year's?
176
00:09:47,353 --> 00:09:53,125
>> Heather: I'm glad it made
an impression.
177
00:09:53,192 --> 00:09:57,930
>> Daniel: You-- you said that
you were just in the moment.
178
00:09:57,997 --> 00:10:01,200
>> Heather: Okay. It surprised
me as much as it surprised you.
179
00:10:01,267 --> 00:10:03,836
Okay. And then it kept me
up at night and I started
180
00:10:03,903 --> 00:10:07,640
asking myself why did I do that?
181
00:10:07,707 --> 00:10:13,846
And what--
what do I really want?
182
00:10:13,913 --> 00:10:19,385
And I realized I don't want
that moment to end.
183
00:10:19,452 --> 00:10:23,522
I wanna string
all the moments together
184
00:10:23,589 --> 00:10:25,825
and see where it takes us.
185
00:10:29,362 --> 00:10:33,966
>> Daniel: Yeah, but Heather,
I'm with Lily now.
186
00:10:34,033 --> 00:10:35,201
>> Heather: I'm well aware.
187
00:10:35,267 --> 00:10:37,903
I know.
188
00:10:37,970 --> 00:10:48,614
But hypothetically,
if-- if you weren't with Lily,
189
00:10:48,681 --> 00:10:50,783
would you and I have a chance?
190
00:10:58,591 --> 00:11:02,194
>> Daniel: Okay. Um...
191
00:11:02,261 --> 00:11:09,268
I think if I wasn't involved
with Lily,
192
00:11:09,335 --> 00:11:12,438
we would have a chance.
193
00:11:12,505 --> 00:11:15,374
But Lily is in my life.
194
00:11:15,441 --> 00:11:19,545
>> Heather: Are you in love
with her?
195
00:11:19,612 --> 00:11:25,684
>> Daniel: She is-- she--
We care a lot for each other.
196
00:11:25,751 --> 00:11:33,192
>> Heather: But are you
in love with her?
197
00:11:33,259 --> 00:11:34,894
>> Daniel: You know,
our relationship just
198
00:11:34,960 --> 00:11:37,963
hasn't reached that level yet.
199
00:11:38,030 --> 00:11:45,304
>> Heather: Okay. Look, Daniel,
if you genuinely want that and--
200
00:11:45,371 --> 00:11:49,408
and you see love
ahead for you and Lily,
201
00:11:49,475 --> 00:11:51,177
I'll respect that.
202
00:11:51,243 --> 00:11:55,247
But knowing how I feel about you
and knowing that our family
203
00:11:55,314 --> 00:11:58,651
can be whole,
in every sense of the word,
204
00:11:58,717 --> 00:12:10,963
is a future with Lily
still what you want?
205
00:12:11,030 --> 00:12:14,700
>> Daniel: You know,
I'm not sure.
206
00:12:14,767 --> 00:12:17,470
>> Victoria: I know, Claire,
I mean, she's still so fragile
207
00:12:17,536 --> 00:12:20,639
but she genuinely believes that
confronting Jordan helped her
208
00:12:20,706 --> 00:12:22,708
regain some control
over her life.
209
00:12:22,775 --> 00:12:26,178
And she knows that getting well,
it's not gonna be easy.
210
00:12:26,245 --> 00:12:28,848
She knows that,
but she's looking forward.
211
00:12:28,914 --> 00:12:32,451
She agreed to let Cole
and me visit her.
212
00:12:32,518 --> 00:12:35,287
>> Nikki: Well, that sounds
very positive.
213
00:12:35,354 --> 00:12:39,758
>> Victoria: And here's
the best part.
214
00:12:39,825 --> 00:12:42,761
She hugged me, Mom.
215
00:12:42,828 --> 00:12:46,932
I held my daughter in my arms
for the first time ever.
216
00:12:46,999 --> 00:12:49,902
>> Nikki: Oh, darling,
I-- I know how much
217
00:12:49,969 --> 00:12:52,037
that must have meant to you.
218
00:12:52,104 --> 00:12:54,039
>> Victoria: Look,
I understand that--
219
00:12:54,106 --> 00:12:57,009
I mean, I know you still have
concerns about Claire
220
00:12:57,076 --> 00:13:01,113
and what her intentions are,
but every maternal instinct
221
00:13:01,180 --> 00:13:03,782
in me believes her
and believes that she genuinely
222
00:13:03,849 --> 00:13:05,618
wants to turn her life around.
223
00:13:05,684 --> 00:13:07,820
>> Nikki: And I hope
that is true.
224
00:13:07,887 --> 00:13:11,323
I mean, it would be a relief
to know that Claire could be
225
00:13:11,390 --> 00:13:12,758
the daughter you hope for.
226
00:13:12,825 --> 00:13:15,327
>> Victoria: Well, we're already
making so much progress.
227
00:13:15,394 --> 00:13:19,465
She-- she knows that she has
mine and Cole's full support.
228
00:13:19,532 --> 00:13:22,334
We're going to be there with her
every step of the way.
229
00:13:22,401 --> 00:13:25,938
Which is why I am having
some issues with Dad.
230
00:13:26,005 --> 00:13:28,274
>> Nikki: What has he done?
231
00:13:28,340 --> 00:13:30,676
>> Victoria: He summoned Cole
to the ranch.
232
00:13:30,743 --> 00:13:32,845
>> Nikki: Ah, yes, he did
mention he had a conversation--
233
00:13:32,912 --> 00:13:34,513
>> Victoria: Well, then you'll
understand why
234
00:13:34,580 --> 00:13:36,148
I'm upset with him.
235
00:13:36,215 --> 00:13:40,519
Look, I'm happy that Dad
is gonna accept that Claire
236
00:13:40,586 --> 00:13:43,756
will be a part of my life
and Cole will too,
237
00:13:43,822 --> 00:13:46,625
but you and I,
we both know that he's digging.
238
00:13:46,692 --> 00:13:47,693
>> Nikki: For what?
239
00:13:47,760 --> 00:13:50,663
>> Victoria: Mom,
he asked me if something's
240
00:13:50,729 --> 00:13:53,132
gonna happen between
me and Cole?
241
00:13:53,199 --> 00:13:55,568
>> Nikki: Well, you know how
the past has a way
242
00:13:55,634 --> 00:13:56,936
of creeping up on you.
243
00:13:57,002 --> 00:14:01,140
>> Victoria: Oh, no. We--
we want to help our daughter.
244
00:14:01,207 --> 00:14:03,576
That's all.
245
00:14:03,642 --> 00:14:06,045
>> Nikki: What if
your feelings change?
246
00:14:06,111 --> 00:14:08,614
>> Adam: I'll have the final
docs for the deal on your desk
247
00:14:08,681 --> 00:14:09,715
by tomorrow.
248
00:14:09,782 --> 00:14:11,750
>> Victor: Good, son.
249
00:14:13,219 --> 00:14:18,624
[ phone chiming ]
What has you
250
00:14:26,131 --> 00:14:28,367
in such a good mood?
251
00:14:28,434 --> 00:14:30,135
>> Adam: Um, it was just, um...
252
00:14:30,202 --> 00:14:30,936
>> Victor: Look, boy.
253
00:14:36,909 --> 00:14:40,312
I know you're still seeing
Sally Spectra.
254
00:14:40,379 --> 00:14:42,414
>> Adam: Is this where you're
gonna make a dire prediction
255
00:14:42,481 --> 00:14:46,986
that she's gonna be the ruin
of me or Nick, or both of us?
256
00:14:47,052 --> 00:14:49,088
>> Victor: Let me just say
that I don't think
257
00:14:49,154 --> 00:14:52,124
she's good enough for
either of my sons.
258
00:14:52,191 --> 00:14:55,427
And I don't like the fact
that she has hurt Nicholas
259
00:14:55,494 --> 00:14:56,895
as deeply as she has.
260
00:14:56,962 --> 00:14:58,998
But there's a reason for that.
261
00:14:59,064 --> 00:15:03,002
She's always cared more about
you than about your brother.
262
00:15:03,068 --> 00:15:07,306
The heart wants what
the heart wants, you know?
263
00:15:07,373 --> 00:15:09,408
It's an unstoppable force.
264
00:15:09,475 --> 00:15:12,645
>> Adam: That's about as close
of a blessing I can expect
265
00:15:12,711 --> 00:15:18,017
from you where Sally is
concerned, so I'll take it.
266
00:15:18,083 --> 00:15:20,286
Thank you.
267
00:15:20,352 --> 00:15:24,623
>> Victor: As long
as you trust her,
268
00:15:24,690 --> 00:15:26,725
I'll try to do the same.
269
00:15:29,895 --> 00:15:34,233
>> Nick: I'm not putting on
an act when it comes to Sally.
270
00:15:34,300 --> 00:15:37,002
Things didn't work out.
271
00:15:37,069 --> 00:15:39,571
I genuinely want
what is best for her.
272
00:15:39,638 --> 00:15:54,520
>> Sharon: Even if
she's with Adam?
273
00:15:54,586 --> 00:15:57,956
>> Sharon: Even if
she's with Adam?
274
00:15:58,023 --> 00:16:00,826
>> Nick: Of course, I do not
want Sally to be with Adam
275
00:16:00,893 --> 00:16:03,395
because I know
what's gonna happen.
276
00:16:03,462 --> 00:16:06,298
I care about her
and he's going to hurt her again
277
00:16:06,365 --> 00:16:08,067
because that's what Adam does.
278
00:16:08,133 --> 00:16:11,837
You know all this talk about
the new Adam,
279
00:16:11,904 --> 00:16:13,472
I'm here for it.
280
00:16:13,539 --> 00:16:15,774
I certainly welcome it.
281
00:16:15,841 --> 00:16:17,509
Is it possible? I don't know.
282
00:16:17,576 --> 00:16:19,912
But I know that if things
go sideways again,
283
00:16:19,978 --> 00:16:23,048
and they will
because Adam is who he is,
284
00:16:23,115 --> 00:16:26,251
Sally's gonna get her heart
handed to her again.
285
00:16:26,318 --> 00:16:29,822
>> Sharon: Love can be
a risky proposition,
286
00:16:29,888 --> 00:16:33,959
but love can be
very wonderful too.
287
00:16:34,026 --> 00:16:39,965
It's gotten us into a lot of
trouble before, especially you.
288
00:16:40,032 --> 00:16:43,001
>> Nick: Yeah.
289
00:16:43,068 --> 00:16:44,636
Yeah. Sorry.
290
00:16:44,703 --> 00:16:45,571
>> Sharon: No, no.
291
00:16:45,637 --> 00:16:47,139
That's not what this is about.
292
00:16:47,206 --> 00:16:50,809
This is us
being older and wiser.
293
00:16:50,876 --> 00:16:54,046
>> Nick: Well,
at least one of us.
294
00:16:54,113 --> 00:16:55,814
>> Sharon: You know,
everything that's happened
295
00:16:55,881 --> 00:16:59,818
in the last year or so,
I do feel like I've gained
296
00:16:59,885 --> 00:17:02,054
some wisdom and some balance.
297
00:17:02,121 --> 00:17:07,826
My priorities have shifted,
>> Nick: You know, after almost
298
00:17:07,893 --> 00:17:12,264
losing Faith and you,
and Jordan coming after
299
00:17:12,331 --> 00:17:15,567
my family the way she did,
I realize the only thing that
300
00:17:15,634 --> 00:17:17,903
matters is protecting my family.
301
00:17:17,970 --> 00:17:20,606
Keeping the ones I love safe
and that means being
302
00:17:20,672 --> 00:17:23,475
the best father I can be
to Noah and Faith and Summer
303
00:17:23,542 --> 00:17:24,610
and Christian.
304
00:17:24,676 --> 00:17:29,381
Being the best son I can be,
trying to be a good brother.
305
00:17:29,448 --> 00:17:31,917
>> Sharon: That will be
a herculean effort
306
00:17:31,984 --> 00:17:33,485
when it comes to Adam.
307
00:17:33,552 --> 00:17:35,654
But I have total confidence.
308
00:17:35,721 --> 00:17:37,923
>> Nick: You know, so far,
so good.
309
00:17:37,990 --> 00:17:42,127
Uh, this time around,
it feels right
310
00:17:42,194 --> 00:17:45,030
and sharing the top spot
with Adam, it gives me hope
311
00:17:45,097 --> 00:17:47,433
that it is possible.
312
00:17:47,499 --> 00:17:49,668
I've never been this excited
to be back at Newman.
313
00:17:49,735 --> 00:17:52,137
I'm really looking forward
to the challenge.
314
00:17:52,204 --> 00:17:55,441
>> Sharon: So, you're all
about work now?
315
00:17:55,507 --> 00:17:59,111
What happened to your warning
about having only a company
316
00:17:59,178 --> 00:18:01,880
to keep me warm at night?
317
00:18:01,947 --> 00:18:05,851
>> Nick: I don't know why
I said that. It was dumb.
318
00:18:05,918 --> 00:18:07,986
Honestly, things are
pretty perfect right now.
319
00:18:08,053 --> 00:18:17,229
The idea of falling in love
again just sounds exhausting.
320
00:18:23,969 --> 00:18:26,872
>> Sharon: I couldn't agree
with you more.
321
00:18:26,939 --> 00:18:31,176
The butterflies,
the all consuming-ness of it.
322
00:18:31,243 --> 00:18:33,679
It's totally exhausting.
323
00:18:33,745 --> 00:18:37,549
I just wanna focus on being
a good mom, running my company.
324
00:18:37,616 --> 00:18:39,384
I love my company.
325
00:18:39,451 --> 00:18:40,619
>> Nick: Who needs love.
326
00:18:40,686 --> 00:18:41,653
>> Sharon: Right?
327
00:18:41,720 --> 00:18:45,757
I feel the same energy
coming from you. Look at us.
328
00:18:45,824 --> 00:18:48,560
It took us a long time
to find ourselves,
329
00:18:48,627 --> 00:18:51,830
but it seems we finally have.
330
00:18:51,897 --> 00:18:53,565
>> Nick: Who would have thought?
331
00:18:58,103 --> 00:19:00,372
Have lunch with me?
332
00:19:00,439 --> 00:19:02,774
>> Victoria: Are you taking
Daddy's side?
333
00:19:02,841 --> 00:19:07,079
>> Nikki: No, I just see
the hope in your eyes
334
00:19:07,145 --> 00:19:11,450
to create the family that
you feel Claire deserves.
335
00:19:11,517 --> 00:19:13,886
>> Victoria: You just both
assume that I'm going
336
00:19:13,952 --> 00:19:15,721
to swoon into Cole's arms.
337
00:19:15,787 --> 00:19:17,089
It's ridiculous.
338
00:19:17,155 --> 00:19:18,190
It's offensive.
339
00:19:18,257 --> 00:19:20,392
>> Nikki: You know how
protective your father is
340
00:19:20,459 --> 00:19:22,995
and you know how much Cole
hurt you in the past.
341
00:19:23,061 --> 00:19:24,396
It's a valid concern.
342
00:19:24,463 --> 00:19:26,498
>> Victoria: Mom, Cole and I
have both hurt each other
343
00:19:26,565 --> 00:19:28,700
and now we're both supporting
our daughter, okay?
344
00:19:28,767 --> 00:19:31,236
Romance is the last thing
on either of our minds.
345
00:19:31,303 --> 00:19:31,904
>> Nikki: Okay.
346
00:19:31,970 --> 00:19:33,005
I'm glad to hear it.
347
00:19:33,071 --> 00:19:35,440
But your father is just doing
what he thinks is right,
348
00:19:35,507 --> 00:19:36,608
looking after his daughter.
349
00:19:36,675 --> 00:19:39,077
>> Victoria: Dad is not
looking after me.
350
00:19:39,144 --> 00:19:42,514
He drew a line in the sand
that he should not have drawn.
351
00:19:42,581 --> 00:19:45,717
I-- Cole needs to be here
for Claire,
352
00:19:45,784 --> 00:19:48,620
so I need him here as well.
353
00:19:48,687 --> 00:19:53,559
>> Heather: I'm not trying
to steal you away from Lily,
354
00:19:53,625 --> 00:19:56,295
okay? I-- I don't want
to hurt anyone. I--
355
00:19:56,361 --> 00:19:59,064
I hate the thought
of hurting someone
356
00:19:59,131 --> 00:20:03,201
but that does not mean I'm not
going to fight for our family.
357
00:20:03,268 --> 00:20:07,172
Do you remember how happy
we were in Savannah?
358
00:20:07,239 --> 00:20:09,474
It was incredible.
359
00:20:09,541 --> 00:20:11,843
I mean,
all of those times together.
360
00:20:11,910 --> 00:20:14,079
Do you remember
how good they were? We planned
361
00:20:14,146 --> 00:20:15,948
an entire life together.
362
00:20:16,014 --> 00:20:19,017
>> Daniel: And then,
I ruined that.
363
00:20:19,084 --> 00:20:22,120
>> Heather: But you found
your way back.
364
00:20:22,187 --> 00:20:25,757
You are the man that I fell in
love with all those years ago.
365
00:20:25,824 --> 00:20:28,327
You are the father
that Lucy adores
366
00:20:28,393 --> 00:20:32,030
and she is so happy
and that is invaluable.
367
00:20:32,097 --> 00:20:34,032
I mean, I see it
when she smiles.
368
00:20:34,099 --> 00:20:36,702
She feels safe and loved
and protected and I see
369
00:20:36,768 --> 00:20:39,071
us together as a family again.
370
00:20:39,137 --> 00:20:40,405
I want that.
371
00:20:40,472 --> 00:20:41,440
I want that back.
372
00:20:41,506 --> 00:20:44,142
I want us back.
373
00:20:47,813 --> 00:20:51,116
>> Daniel: That you believed
enough in me to move here
374
00:20:51,183 --> 00:20:54,152
with Lucy. That--
that means everything.
375
00:20:54,219 --> 00:20:58,323
>> Heather: Daniel, I never
stopped believing in you.
376
00:20:58,390 --> 00:21:02,794
When I took Lucy to Portugal,
in a way, I was still fighting
377
00:21:02,861 --> 00:21:05,597
for you and for us because
I needed to give you
378
00:21:05,664 --> 00:21:09,835
the space to figure out who you
were and what you wanted.
379
00:21:09,901 --> 00:21:14,840
And even though I told myself,
I thought we were probably over,
380
00:21:14,906 --> 00:21:19,444
a very tiny part of me really
hoped that maybe someday,
381
00:21:19,511 --> 00:21:26,018
you'd wanna be back
with Lucy and me again,
382
00:21:26,084 --> 00:21:28,353
>> Daniel: Even though you
were involved
383
00:21:28,420 --> 00:21:31,423
with someone in Portugal?
384
00:21:31,490 --> 00:21:34,926
>> Heather: A safe person.
385
00:21:34,993 --> 00:21:38,730
A man I knew
wouldn't break my heart.
386
00:21:38,797 --> 00:21:44,703
Look, we've had
an amazing love story
387
00:21:44,770 --> 00:21:48,674
and a wonderful life with Lucy.
388
00:21:48,740 --> 00:21:52,844
What if our story isn't over?
389
00:21:52,911 --> 00:21:59,618
And what if we could
recapture what we had?
390
00:21:59,685 --> 00:22:01,386
Would you want to try?
391
00:22:10,028 --> 00:22:10,862
>> Heather: Maybe you think
392
00:22:10,929 --> 00:22:12,798
I'm horrible
for trying to come between you
393
00:22:12,864 --> 00:22:13,665
and Lily.
394
00:22:13,732 --> 00:22:14,700
And maybe it's wrong.
395
00:22:14,766 --> 00:22:18,270
I-- Some people would say that.
396
00:22:18,336 --> 00:22:22,474
But what I think would be wrong
is saying nothing
397
00:22:22,541 --> 00:22:24,910
when the man you love
is standing right in front
398
00:22:24,976 --> 00:22:27,779
of you and the life you want
is right there
399
00:22:27,846 --> 00:22:33,919
and you're too polite to just
open the door and try to get it.
400
00:22:33,985 --> 00:22:37,989
So, this is me opening the door.
401
00:22:49,034 --> 00:22:53,271
>> Daniel: Heather, I mean,
I-- I-- I hurt you.
402
00:22:53,338 --> 00:22:55,741
I hurt you so deeply.
403
00:22:55,807 --> 00:22:58,143
>> Heather: But we've also loved
each other for so long
404
00:22:58,210 --> 00:23:02,080
and I don't-- I don't think love
like that comes around a lot
405
00:23:02,147 --> 00:23:07,886
and maybe--
maybe this is our second chance?
406
00:23:07,953 --> 00:23:15,527
How can we pass that up
without at least trying?
407
00:23:15,594 --> 00:23:19,397
>> Daniel: It's--
it's complicated.
408
00:23:19,464 --> 00:23:20,365
>> Heather: Okay.
409
00:23:20,432 --> 00:23:22,901
You know what's not complicated?
410
00:23:22,968 --> 00:23:25,270
I love you.
411
00:23:25,337 --> 00:23:27,606
I love you with all my heart,
the man that you are,
412
00:23:27,672 --> 00:23:30,275
the man that you were,
the father
413
00:23:30,342 --> 00:23:34,079
and I want more than just
co-parenting with rom coms
414
00:23:34,146 --> 00:23:36,748
and banana pancakes,
as amazing as that is.
415
00:23:36,815 --> 00:23:40,051
I-- I want the joy of
raising our daughter together.
416
00:23:40,118 --> 00:23:43,155
Lucy is growing up so quickly
and I wanna wake up
417
00:23:43,221 --> 00:23:46,658
every morning wrapped up
in your arms, in our bed.
418
00:23:46,725 --> 00:23:53,231
And end the day the same way,
every day.
419
00:23:53,298 --> 00:23:56,668
You know where I stand,
you know how I feel
420
00:23:56,735 --> 00:24:00,071
and what I believe with
all of my heart and every ounce
421
00:24:00,138 --> 00:24:04,476
of my being And you can tell me
to leave and we don't ever have
422
00:24:04,543 --> 00:24:08,313
to talk about it again.
423
00:24:08,380 --> 00:24:15,287
But I don't think
you want me to leave.
424
00:24:15,353 --> 00:24:18,190
Do you?
425
00:24:35,307 --> 00:24:36,107
>> Adam: Excuse me?
426
00:24:36,174 --> 00:24:37,976
Is someone sitting here?
427
00:24:38,043 --> 00:24:39,244
>> Sally: Only you.
428
00:24:39,311 --> 00:24:46,084
>> Adam: I like the sound
of that.
429
00:24:46,151 --> 00:24:48,186
Best part of my day.
430
00:24:48,253 --> 00:24:50,355
>> Sally: Well, I know Victor's
been keeping you really busy,
431
00:24:50,422 --> 00:24:52,324
so I'm glad that you could
get away.
432
00:24:52,390 --> 00:24:56,428
>> Adam: Well, you--
you will be even gladder
433
00:24:56,494 --> 00:25:00,465
when I tell you something
that will shock you.
434
00:25:00,532 --> 00:25:03,235
>> Sally: Okay, you know,
I'm not easily shocked, right?
435
00:25:03,301 --> 00:25:08,306
>> Adam: Victor practically
gave us his blessing.
436
00:25:08,373 --> 00:25:10,942
>> Sally: What? No way.
437
00:25:11,009 --> 00:25:13,712
No, no, there has to be
some sort of catch.
438
00:25:13,778 --> 00:25:16,314
Like maybe it's opposite day,
or maybe he started early
439
00:25:16,381 --> 00:25:17,415
on the tequila.
440
00:25:17,482 --> 00:25:20,018
Or maybe he's just
messing with you.
441
00:25:20,085 --> 00:25:21,453
>> Adam: Nope.
442
00:25:21,519 --> 00:25:25,523
The old man made it very clear,
in his own words,
443
00:25:25,590 --> 00:25:31,696
that he's ready to support our,
um, renewed relationship.
444
00:25:31,763 --> 00:25:32,731
>> Sally: Okay.
445
00:25:32,797 --> 00:25:35,133
That makes no sense
because he didn't think I was
446
00:25:35,200 --> 00:25:38,169
good enough for either of his
sons and then he actively tried
447
00:25:38,236 --> 00:25:44,242
to screw me over, and now,
he's just good with this?
448
00:25:44,309 --> 00:25:49,281
>> Adam: He very wisely said
that the heart wants
449
00:25:49,347 --> 00:25:50,815
what the heart wants.
450
00:25:50,882 --> 00:25:55,220
And he's gonna honor that.
451
00:25:55,287 --> 00:25:57,188
>> Sally: Wow.
452
00:25:59,824 --> 00:26:02,160
>> Adam: Are you okay?
453
00:26:02,227 --> 00:26:03,328
>> Sally: Yeah.
454
00:26:03,395 --> 00:26:07,532
It's just Victor approves of us.
455
00:26:07,599 --> 00:26:11,770
>> Adam: Well, I--
>> Sally: Well, ish.
456
00:26:11,836 --> 00:26:12,737
What's changed?
457
00:26:16,641 --> 00:26:21,713
>> Adam: Maybe he sees the truth
of this, of us.
458
00:26:21,780 --> 00:26:24,950
Sees my determination
to be a better man.
459
00:26:25,016 --> 00:26:27,085
I mean,
I hope that you see that.
460
00:26:27,152 --> 00:26:30,789
>> Sally: Every time
I'm with you.
461
00:26:30,855 --> 00:26:34,759
You said renewed relationship.
462
00:26:34,826 --> 00:26:35,760
>> Adam: Too fast?
463
00:26:35,827 --> 00:26:38,196
Because we take this
at your speed.
464
00:26:38,263 --> 00:26:40,765
It's whatever
you're comfortable with.
465
00:26:40,832 --> 00:26:43,501
This is a new chapter,
for both of us
466
00:26:43,568 --> 00:26:45,136
and I want to get it right.
467
00:26:46,738 --> 00:27:00,051
>> Sally: Well, I think you're
getting it very, very right.
468
00:27:00,118 --> 00:27:02,487
[ knock on door ]
>> Victoria: Dad?
469
00:27:02,554 --> 00:27:03,922
>> Victor: Hi, my sweetheart.
470
00:27:03,989 --> 00:27:05,590
What a nice surprise.
471
00:27:05,657 --> 00:27:07,959
How are you feeling?
472
00:27:08,026 --> 00:27:09,794
How's Claire?
473
00:27:09,861 --> 00:27:12,897
>> Victoria: We have made some
real progress, but I'm not here
474
00:27:12,964 --> 00:27:14,065
to talk about my daughter.
475
00:27:14,132 --> 00:27:15,166
>> Victor: Oh?
476
00:27:15,233 --> 00:27:18,603
>> Victoria: I am here to tell
you to leave Cole alone.
477
00:27:26,611 --> 00:27:28,913
>> Victor: What in the world
are you talking about?
478
00:27:28,980 --> 00:27:30,215
>> Victoria: Oh, come on.
479
00:27:30,281 --> 00:27:32,751
I know that you think
you're looking out for me,
480
00:27:32,817 --> 00:27:34,185
but you need to stop.
481
00:27:34,252 --> 00:27:37,122
I'm not creating some fantasy
family in my head.
482
00:27:37,188 --> 00:27:39,457
What happened between Cole
and me, good or bad,
483
00:27:39,524 --> 00:27:40,959
it's in the past.
484
00:27:41,026 --> 00:27:43,128
>> Victor: Sweetheart,
a father can be concerned.
485
00:27:43,194 --> 00:27:46,064
>> Victoria: God, the last thing
that I need, the last thing Cole
486
00:27:46,131 --> 00:27:51,636
needs is to have to deal
with your interfering.
487
00:27:51,703 --> 00:27:54,139
>> Victor: Is that
what I'm doing?
488
00:27:54,205 --> 00:27:56,541
>> Victoria: Cole just found
out-- We just found out
489
00:27:56,608 --> 00:27:57,976
that our daughter
is still alive.
490
00:27:58,043 --> 00:28:01,179
He is-- he is still struggling
to deal with that new reality.
491
00:28:01,246 --> 00:28:02,213
And so am I.
492
00:28:02,280 --> 00:28:04,416
We don't need
the added pressure.
493
00:28:04,482 --> 00:28:08,820
I mean, do you really think
I'm interested in a romance?
494
00:28:08,887 --> 00:28:12,157
>> Victor: That is not the only
thing I'm concerned about.
495
00:28:12,223 --> 00:28:13,591
>> Victoria: I don't understand.
496
00:28:13,658 --> 00:28:16,127
>> Victor: Listen to you.
497
00:28:16,194 --> 00:28:19,197
You're beginning to develop
very motherly, very maternal
498
00:28:19,264 --> 00:28:20,532
feelings towards that
Claire girl.
499
00:28:20,598 --> 00:28:23,068
She's an unstable girl.
500
00:28:23,134 --> 00:28:26,337
You don't really know her
and yet, you're already thinking
501
00:28:26,404 --> 00:28:28,673
and talking about
creating a family.
502
00:28:28,740 --> 00:28:31,443
I don't want you
to get hurt again.
503
00:28:31,509 --> 00:28:33,678
>> Victoria: And I love you
for that, Dad,
504
00:28:33,745 --> 00:28:37,315
But would you please just let
Claire and Cole and me just--
505
00:28:37,382 --> 00:28:39,918
Would you let us do this
on our own?
506
00:28:39,984 --> 00:28:54,232
Would you just trust me to make
my own decisions, please?
507
00:28:54,299 --> 00:28:57,435
>> Victor: All right.
508
00:28:57,502 --> 00:29:00,371
I'll be nice.
509
00:29:00,438 --> 00:29:02,040
>> Victoria: There's
one more thing.
510
00:29:02,107 --> 00:29:03,241
>> Victor: What?
511
00:29:03,308 --> 00:29:05,443
>> Victoria: When Claire
recovers and when
512
00:29:05,510 --> 00:29:08,012
she's released,
I want you to accept her
513
00:29:08,079 --> 00:29:10,081
into the Newman family.
514
00:29:12,750 --> 00:29:16,454
>> Sharon: If you would
rather go someplace else.
515
00:29:16,521 --> 00:29:18,256
>> Nick: No, it's cool.
516
00:29:18,323 --> 00:29:19,457
Sally and I cleared the air.
517
00:29:19,524 --> 00:29:21,259
You witnessed it.
518
00:29:21,326 --> 00:29:25,396
It's like you said,
this is about looking forward.
519
00:29:25,463 --> 00:29:26,564
Come on.
520
00:29:28,233 --> 00:29:29,734
Hey, you two.
521
00:29:31,636 --> 00:29:33,471
>> Adam: Just grabbing
some lunch?
522
00:29:33,538 --> 00:29:34,372
>> Nick: Yeah.
523
00:29:34,439 --> 00:29:35,773
It seemed like a good idea.
524
00:29:35,840 --> 00:29:38,276
>> Sally: I just wanted
to say again how wonderful
525
00:29:38,343 --> 00:29:40,044
Cassidy First is gonna be.
526
00:29:40,111 --> 00:29:44,115
>> Sharon: Thank you. Yeah,
I'm really excited about it.
527
00:29:44,182 --> 00:29:46,151
>> Nick: See you at the office.
528
00:29:46,217 --> 00:29:47,352
>> Adam: You bet.
529
00:29:55,860 --> 00:29:58,329
That went well.
530
00:29:58,396 --> 00:30:03,234
>> Sally: Maybe this really is
a new beginning for everyone.
531
00:30:03,301 --> 00:30:06,171
>> Adam: Do you believe
in destiny?
532
00:30:06,237 --> 00:30:10,141
>> Sally: I mean, only
what you make for yourself.
533
00:30:10,208 --> 00:30:11,876
You create the circumstance,
you do the work
534
00:30:11,943 --> 00:30:16,481
and then everything
just falls into place.
535
00:30:16,548 --> 00:30:17,549
Why do you ask?
536
00:30:17,615 --> 00:30:20,618
>> Adam: I was just--
I was just curious
537
00:30:20,685 --> 00:30:23,655
what you think.
538
00:30:23,721 --> 00:30:25,690
>> Sally: You weren't just
curious. You keep staring
539
00:30:25,757 --> 00:30:26,925
at Sharon and Nick?
540
00:30:26,991 --> 00:30:29,561
>> Adam: No, I'm not. I'm not.
541
00:30:29,627 --> 00:30:31,129
>> Sally: You kind of are.
542
00:30:31,196 --> 00:30:36,134
And maybe this sudden curiosity
is because you're slightly
543
00:30:36,201 --> 00:30:38,870
hoping that them being together
means that they're more
544
00:30:38,937 --> 00:30:39,537
than just friends.
545
00:30:39,604 --> 00:30:42,907
>> Adam: Okay. That is absurd.
546
00:30:42,974 --> 00:30:46,844
Why would I care,
one way or another?
547
00:30:46,911 --> 00:30:48,880
>> Sally: Because maybe
it would take care of
548
00:30:48,947 --> 00:30:50,315
any crazy perception
you might have
549
00:30:50,381 --> 00:30:52,250
that Nick is still competition.
550
00:31:29,487 --> 00:31:30,989
>> Heather: Hurry.
551
00:31:55,046 --> 00:31:57,048
>> Heather: I'm not alone in
feeling what just happened,
552
00:31:57,115 --> 00:31:59,050
am I?
553
00:32:04,722 --> 00:32:06,157
>> Daniel: You're not alone.
554
00:32:15,566 --> 00:32:16,567
>> Sharon: Thank you.
555
00:32:17,935 --> 00:32:21,272
So, lunch out of the blue.
556
00:32:21,339 --> 00:32:24,776
>> Nick: I'm an out of the blue
kind of guy.
557
00:32:24,842 --> 00:32:27,945
>> Sharon: I'm a little bit
surprised and curious
558
00:32:28,012 --> 00:32:30,882
about the why behind
the invitation?
559
00:32:30,948 --> 00:32:32,817
Not that I mind.
560
00:32:32,884 --> 00:32:36,587
>> Nick: No agenda, just, uh,
was enjoying being around you.
561
00:32:36,654 --> 00:32:38,756
Thought it'd be a good chance
to catch up
562
00:32:38,823 --> 00:32:40,158
on lots of stuff.
563
00:32:40,224 --> 00:32:43,594
Like uh, the kids, Aria.
564
00:32:43,661 --> 00:32:46,531
How are things going with
Cassidy First after the launch?
565
00:32:46,597 --> 00:32:49,033
How are things going with you?
566
00:32:49,100 --> 00:32:52,170
>> Sharon: And, how about
a little bit about how things
567
00:32:52,236 --> 00:32:54,238
are going with you?
568
00:32:54,305 --> 00:32:56,407
>> Nick: Mm. No,
I thought we agreed.
569
00:32:56,474 --> 00:33:00,244
I'm good. In fact, I'm amazing.
570
00:33:00,311 --> 00:33:02,747
>> Sharon: Of course you are.
571
00:33:02,814 --> 00:33:06,851
>> Adam: This is the first time
in forever that I feel like
572
00:33:06,918 --> 00:33:10,388
I'm not in competition
with Nick, about anything.
573
00:33:10,455 --> 00:33:13,725
>> Sally: Well, I hope you mean
that because I'm not wavering
574
00:33:13,791 --> 00:33:16,294
back and forth between
the two of you.
575
00:33:16,361 --> 00:33:19,397
>> Adam: I believe you.
576
00:33:19,464 --> 00:33:26,738
I was thinking more in terms
of destiny in our story.
577
00:33:26,804 --> 00:33:30,241
>> Sally: It's not destiny
because that would suggest that
578
00:33:30,308 --> 00:33:32,543
there is no free will and
we just go along with whatever
579
00:33:32,610 --> 00:33:33,945
happens to us.
580
00:33:34,011 --> 00:33:41,052
But this, you and me,
we chose to be together.
581
00:33:41,119 --> 00:33:44,522
>> Adam: I must say
we've chosen very well.
582
00:33:44,589 --> 00:33:46,691
>> Nick: You should do it.
583
00:33:46,758 --> 00:33:47,925
You should do that.
584
00:33:47,992 --> 00:33:52,430
[ Sharon chuckling ]
>> Adam: I don't know,
585
00:33:52,497 --> 00:33:55,500
say what you want about destiny,
but look at them.
586
00:33:55,566 --> 00:33:57,268
I mean, after everything
that they've been through.
587
00:33:57,335 --> 00:33:59,871
I'm just--
It seems like there was
588
00:33:59,937 --> 00:34:02,673
some sort of fate at play.
589
00:34:02,740 --> 00:34:05,410
And I've always felt that.
590
00:34:06,944 --> 00:34:08,479
>> Victor: My darling...
591
00:34:13,584 --> 00:34:16,788
I'm happy for you, okay?
592
00:34:16,854 --> 00:34:20,491
But don't you forget
for a moment that Claire has
593
00:34:20,558 --> 00:34:22,260
been fooling all of you.
594
00:34:22,326 --> 00:34:25,329
She was taught by a master,
to fool people
595
00:34:25,396 --> 00:34:28,433
into believing her
and trusting her.
596
00:34:28,499 --> 00:34:30,902
>> Victoria: Yeah, but Daddy,
it wasn't an act.
597
00:34:30,968 --> 00:34:36,174
I mean, I think we had
a real breakthrough today.
598
00:34:36,240 --> 00:34:38,209
Look, I know it's just
the beginning
599
00:34:38,276 --> 00:34:40,478
and I know that there's a long
way to go,
600
00:34:40,545 --> 00:34:43,748
but I really believe that this
could work out for us.
601
00:34:43,815 --> 00:34:45,917
>> Victor: I hope so,
my baby, okay?
602
00:34:45,983 --> 00:34:48,286
>> Victoria: Look, I know it's
been difficult for you and Mom,
603
00:34:48,352 --> 00:34:50,321
especially given
what Claire did,
604
00:34:50,388 --> 00:34:55,560
but I mean, can't you just have
a little bit of faith?
605
00:34:55,626 --> 00:35:00,164
If not in Claire,
then in my instinct about her?
606
00:35:00,231 --> 00:35:03,668
>> Victor: You're
a wonderful mother.
607
00:35:03,734 --> 00:35:05,870
I hope it works out.
608
00:35:05,937 --> 00:35:08,606
>> Victoria: And,
when it works out,
609
00:35:08,673 --> 00:35:15,179
you promise that you'll accept
Claire into our family?
610
00:35:15,246 --> 00:35:19,417
>> Victor: Look...
611
00:35:19,484 --> 00:35:25,890
when and if Claire manages
to get a hold of her demons
612
00:35:25,957 --> 00:35:31,262
and becomes a true daughter
to you,
613
00:35:31,329 --> 00:35:33,798
I shall accept her as a Newman.
