>> Ashley: Could you
put a muzzle on this
yappy little bitch?
>> Audra: You know what?
>> Tucker: Hold on,
wait a minute. Stop it.
Ashley, that's enough. Go. Now.
>> Jack: Good morning.
Everything all right?
>> Traci: Um,
have you seen Ashley?
>> Jack: No, but she's
kind of been avoiding me lately.
>> Traci: Okay, no call or text?
You know what, can we ask Kyle?
There's so much going on
in the house,
so many comings and goings.
>> Jack: Everyone's fine.
Everyone's fine.
You don't have to be
on high alert.
>> Traci: I wish it were
that simple.
>> Jack: What do you mean?
>> Traci: Ashley didn't come
home again last night.
♪♪
>> Tessa: Okay, eight o'clock.
Thank you.
Oh, good morning, Nikki.
>> Nikki: Good morning.
Um, I am meeting with Jack,
but I guess I'm a little early.
>> Tessa: Oh, that's okay.
We'll get you started with
some tea.
>> Nikki: Thank you.
>> Tessa: There you go.
>> Nikki: So, how is
the move coming along?
>> Tessa: Oh, well, you know,
we're getting it together.
Mariah and I made a vow
that in this place, we were
gonna stop collecting stuff.
>> Nikki: Oh, I have made that
promise so many times and
I can never stick with it.
There's just so many things that
you can't bear to part with.
>> Tessa: I know.
Anyway,
the move is pretty exciting.
And Mariah and I are just
so grateful to you and
Victor for letting us
stay at the Tack House.
I mean,
it will always be special to us.
It was Aria's first home.
>> Nikki: Well,
we loved having you.
And we loved having
a baby around.
It's a reminder of how
precious each moment is.
>> Jack: Where could Ashley
have-- You know what?
If Ashley didn't come home
last night, I'm sure
she had her reasons.
>> Traci: Such as?
>> Jack: None of my business.
>> Traci: Jack, seriously?
>> Jack: It is none
of my business.
It's none of our business.
>> Traci: We're not talking
about being nosy here.
We're talking about our
sister's well-being.
How can you be so nonchalant?
>> Jack: I am simply doing what
Ashley asked me to do and
what several people, whose
opinion I trust, have
told me to do for some time now.
I am respecting her boundaries.
>> Traci: Ah, Ashley's
boundaries are all over
the place right now.
Something is wrong.
I-- I-- I-- It's gotten to
the point I don't know
which Ashley is gonna
come through the door.
>> Jack: Honey, I'm sorry to say
this, you're overreacting.
>> Traci: And you're in
denial if you think that this is
her normal, everyday behavior.
>> Jack: Maybe Ashley
just needed some time to herself
without the two of us probing
and prodding her every move.
Maybe she's with Abby.
Maybe she got a room of her own.
The point is she can
do what she wants to do
and I intend to respect that.
>> Traci: Okay.
I didn't intend to break
Ashley's confidence,
but you need to--
>> Jack: Then don't break
Ashley's confidence.
>> Traci: Jack!
>> Jack: I don't need
to know this.
I am done policing her behavior.
It hasn't worked in the past
and I don't see that
changing in the future.
>> Traci: The past is the past.
But there's a new issue here and
I can't just sit around
and say, "Well,
this is none of my business."
>> Jack: Why not?
What is really new about this?
Ashley is an adult.
She didn't come home last night.
Not the first time.
Probably not the last.
>> Traci: You're not seeing it.
>> Jack: I am seeing
that you are frustrated.
I am
seeing that you are worried.
And I'm not trying
to aggravate you.
I'm not.
But I've finally come to
the realization that
my sister has a right
to live her own life without her
big brother's interference.
>> Traci: I understand.
I know what you're saying.
And if it were any other time,
I would be right on board
with that, except for one thing.
>> Jack: What is that?
>> Traci: Tucker.
Tucker. He didn't leave.
He's still here.
This is not over.
>> Tucker: Hey, Lily.
Welcome home.
>> Lily: Hi, Tucker.
>> Tucker: I assume this means
your daughter is doing better?
>> Lily: Sorry, how do you know
about Mattie's situation?
>> Tucker: Small town.
>> Lily: Oh. Okay, well,
I'm sure Devon didn't tell you,
since he doesn't really want
anything to do with you.
Unless that's changed.
>> Tucker: No, no.
Sadly, it has not.
>> Lily: Okay, well then,
I guess we don't have much
to say to each other.
>> Nikki: Now remember,
there will be a pony waiting for
Aria as soon as she's ready
to learn how to ride.
>> Tessa: Well, I promise to
come back and visit,
and we will definitely be
stopping by the stables.
>> Nikki: I'm gonna hold you
to that.
One thing I'm sure you
won't miss is all the heightened
security at the ranch.
>> Tessa: I can't tell you
how much I admire your
bravery and your strength
through all of this.
Most people would have run
for the hills if some
deranged person was stalking
them and their family.
Has there been any
news of finding her?
>> Nikki: No, I'm afraid not.
>> Tessa: I'm sorry, Nikki.
They will. They will soon.
>> Nikki: I hope so.
>> Tessa: Well, I-- I better get
back to work, but hopefully this
nightmare will be over soon.
Be careful, Nikki.
>> Nikki: I will. Thank you.
>> Jack: Look, I know you're
concerned about Tucker,
but I think we all need
to take a step back
and look at this man,
what he's capable of,
which is precious little
if you think about it.
I know we've all bought
into this idea of him being this
dangerous, powerful egomaniac
who can topple empires at
a whim, but...
he can't get to us.
>> Traci: I'm not talking
about the corporate world, Jack.
>> Jack: Neither am I.
I'm talking about Ashley.
She's done with him.
She was done with
him a long time ago.
Yes, he managed to somehow
worm his way back in,
but look what happened.
It's over.
He ruined it just like
we thought he would,
and Ashley is telling us now she
wants nothing to do with him.
I think we need to
take her at her word.
>> Traci: So, you're not at all
worried that she may have spent
the night with him last night?
>> Jack: Is that your
real concern here?
Because I don't think that.
He does not have the same
hold on her he once had.
I know it's taken some time,
but she's there, and you
have to believe that.
>> Traci: I would like to,
but I-- I just can't believe it.
>> Jack: We have to let this go.
What are our choices here?
>> Traci: Our choices are
to be cautious and vigilant when
the situation requires it.
>> Jack: But that doesn't
help her.
That pushes her away.
I know it goes against your
nature to not look after Ashley.
It's the same for me.
But she will only take so
much pressure before she
eventually just tunes us out.
[ Traci sighs ]
>> Traci: So you just want me to
sit back and watch a slow-moving
train wreck about to happen?
>> Jack: No, no.
I want you to listen to her.
To be there for her.
To let her work through
whatever this is on her own.
Be a sister to her,
not her keeper.
No, Traci, you are the glue that
holds this family together.
No one would say otherwise.
Don't let it be a burden.
Don't let it be a reason
you can't let your guard
down and just be with us.
Look, I know you have
a home in New York City.
You work there.
I respect all of that.
But we love
having you in this house.
Your home.
I particularly have loved
that you have been here as
long as you've been here.
And whether Ashley's
willing to admit it or not,
I think it's been good for her.
I think it's a good reminder
of how strong we can be if
this family is united.
>> Traci: But that--
that's just it, Jack.
I don't see
that our family is united.
>> Jack: Traci, we've been
through worse than this.
Far worse.
When we're not
speaking to each other,
when we're forced to live
in different continents.
This, by contrast,
is a bump in the road.
Oh, God, I'm sorry.
I'm-- I'm supposed to have
coffee with Nikki right now.
Listen, trust me on this.
When Ashley needs our help
and asks for it,
we will be there for her.
Until then, I'm gonna give her
the space she asked for.
I think you should
do the same thing.
I love you.
>> Tucker: May I ask you
how Devon is doing?
>> Lily: Hm, I don't think so.
>> Tucker: That's an
innocent enough question.
>> Lily: I don't think anything
is innocent with you.
I mean,
you always have a hidden agenda.
And I want no part of it,
especially when it
comes to my family.
>> Tucker: Yeah, Lily,
I understand your
suspicions about me,
but I have kept my distance
from him, as requested.
And it hurts. It really does.
Not being a part of his life
and not getting to see
Dom on a regular basis.
I miss him.
I miss even going to his music
classes and having to sit
through all those kids banging
away at the drums just so
I could hear his solo.
>> Lily: Well, you have no
one to blame but yourself.
>> Tucker: Yeah.
You're right, I do.
I have done things that have
rightfully driven Devon away.
But I would very much
like to correct all that.
>> Lily: You know, sometimes,
these things can't be corrected.
Because people's feelings
get hurt, and once that happens,
you can't always undo it.
And I definitely am not gonna
try to undo it for you.
>> Tucker: No, no, no.
I wouldn't.
That's not what I'm asking.
I just--
I love them
and I miss them, and I feel like
I have to convince you of that.
>> Lily: I'm not the one
who needs to be convinced.
>> Tucker: That's incredible
timing. We were just talk--
>> Traci: Hi. Hi.
Um, is this the front desk?
Great.
This is Traci Abbott, and I'm
wondering if anyone there
has seen my sister, Ashley.
She often takes a suite there.
I think you know who she is.
Oh, never mind.
Ashley?
Are you all right?
Where have you been?
>> Ashley: I don't know.
>> Jack: Sorry I'm late.
Have you been waiting long?
>> Nikki: No, not too long.
Um, I was chatting with Tessa.
And she was telling me about
the move, that she and Mariah
are moving off the ranch into
their own home, you know.
>> Jack: I didn't know that.
Hey.
>> Nikki: What?
>> Jack: What's wrong?
[ Nikki sighs ]
>> Nikki: What's not wrong?
>> Jack: You can talk
to me about anything.
That's why I'm here.
>> Nikki: Oh.
I don't know what to do, Jack.
Victor wants to take me on
this fabulous vacation to
celebrate our anniversary,
and I just don't know.
>> Jack: I think it's great.
You should be rewarded
for surviving
Victor all these years.
Sorry, old habits die hard.
Why are you ambivalent
about this trip?
>> Nikki: It's just a feeling.
It's a dread that
doesn't seem to go away.
I mean, there was a time not
that long ago where I would have
hated going on a trip
with Victor because that
would mean it would be
harder for me to drink.
Now, it's the opposite.
I hate that I want to drink,
and a trip would mean time alone
with all of these terrible
feelings and urges and--
and I don't want to be
away from you and your support.
>> Jack: I am always
a phone call away.
You can always reach out
to me when you need to talk.
Hey, I think you should go.
After everything that you and
Victor have been through,
you both deserve a chance to get
away, to rest, and recoup.
I think this is exactly
what you need.
>> Tucker: Morning. How are you?
>> Devon: Tucker.
>> Tucker: Devon?
>> Devon: Yeah.
>> Tucker: How's Dom?
>> Devon: He's fine.
>> Tucker: Still into music?
>> Devon: Uh-huh.
>> Tucker: Good.
And how are you?
>> Devon: I'm doing great.
I'm late for a meeting though
with my sister, so I need to go.
>> Tucker: Wait, hold--
Wait a minute.
I know the harm that you
think I have caused or
that I actually have caused,
but do you actually believe that
I am just beyond all hope?
That there's nothing I can do
or say?
That-- that whatever I have done
is just so egregious that
we couldn't possibly even
attempt to find our way back
to being a family again?
>> Devon: Well,
that's the thing.
We've never been a family.
>> Tucker: Well, not in
a traditional sense.
>> Devon: This is what
pisses me off about you.
Because I try and draw lines,
and then you just walk
all over them like
they're not even there.
Because I've been very specific
about telling you to keep
your distance from me,
and then you ask me something
like this 'cause all
you care about is what you want.
>> Tucker: No,
that is not true at all.
>> Devon: It's not true?
>> Tucker: No.
>> Devon: How's it not true?
You tell me how it's not.
You look at your life
right now and tell me
that you're not alone.
'Cause I know you are, and it's
all because you don't know how
to stop sabotaging the things
that you claim matter to you.
And I'm done playing the game.
You're not entitled to me
or anybody else.
>> Audra: Tucker?
>> Tucker: Beautiful Audra.
Last night was magical,
and so were you.
Every time I look at you,
I realize how fortunate I am
and what an idiot I was to
resist what you've known
all along, that we were
meant for each other.
I will never
make that mistake again.
I have to run a few errands.
Can't wait to get back to you
and hold you in my arms.
I love you. Tucker.
>> Traci: You don't
remember where you've been?
>> Ashley: Uh, I woke up in
a motel room, alone.
I have no idea how I got there.
>> Traci: Okay, what's the last
thing you do remember?
>> Ashley: I don't know.
>> Traci: Think Ashley,
try to concentrate.
[ Ashley sighs ]
>> Ashley: I, um, I think
I was at the Athletic Club.
I think I was outside
Tucker's suite.
>> Traci: Okay, did you see him?
Did you talk to him?
>> Ashley: I don't know.
I don't think so.
I kind of remember that
I-- I ran away from there.
>> Traci: And you don't remember
where you went after that?
>> Ashley: No.
>> Traci: Okay, I'm-- I'm sorry.
I have to ask,
were you drinking?
>> Ashley: No.
>> Traci: Are you sure?
>> Ashley: I don't know.
I'm not sure of anything.
I mean,
there's like this empty space.
Before and after,
I was at the Athletic Club
that lasted until I woke up
in that motel room this morning.
>> Traci: Okay,
is there any way that you
might have been drugged?
Are-- are you sure?
Because, you know, Ashley, it's
really easy for someone to slip
a roofie in someone's drink.
>> Ashley: No.
>> Traci: Maybe we
should have you tested.
>> Ashley: No. No.
>> Traci: Look, you don't
have to go to a hospital.
We can hire someone to
come here and take a sample.
>> Ashley: You don't understand.
I know that I wasn't drugged.
This isn't the first time
it's happened to me.
>> Jack: So, do you think
you're gonna have enough faith
in yourself and in the program
to go on this trip
and have a good time,
even if it's with Victor?
>> Nikki: Jack.
[ Jack sighs ]
Well, I just
don't know that I could've
survived this ordeal
without you, so thank you.
>> Jack: Enough with
the thank yous.
You would do the same for me.
And seeing a smile
on your face and your sobriety
is enough thanks for me.
>> Lily: Are you okay?
>> Devon: Yeah, I'm fine.
What was that about with you
and Tucker when I walked in?
>> Lily: Oh, you know,
he hears his name and then
thinks it's a reason
to come over and be annoying,
but I don't want that today.
>> Devon: So, he did say
something to annoy you?
>> Lily: No. He was trying
to pretend like he was
a human being,
and I wasn't convinced.
>> Devon: Did he ask about me?
>> Lily: Of course.
He is relentless.
>> Devon: Well, I don't know
what he expects.
>> Lily: I don't know,
your forgiveness.
>> Devon: Well, I just
told him again
that he's not gonna get it.
>> Lily: Look, I know
it's easier said than done,
but don't let him get to you.
>> Devon: He doesn't get to me.
He can't anymore.
What?
>> Lily: I mean, listen, to me,
Tucker doesn't matter, right?
He has no effect on me.
But I know for you,
that's different.
>> Devon: It's not different.
It's not different at all.
Maybe it was in the past, but...
>> Lily: Come on.
You're his son.
>> Devon: I know what I am.
I'm his biological son.
>> Lily: Okay. Devon, really?
>> Devon: What? I'm fine.
I really am.
I-- I've given him plenty of
opportunities to do right by me,
and he's messed it up
every single time.
So, it's okay.
>> Lily: It's okay
that you might feel sad
that he hasn't been the father
that you deserve or need, right?
Or that he hasn't been
the grandfather to Dom
that he should be.
It's okay
to have those feelings.
I mean, saying that that matters
to you doesn't mean
that Tucker has won.
>> Tucker: Mm-mm-mm.
Good morning.
>> Audra: Hi. Where'd you go?
>> Tucker: Did you get my note?
>> Audra: I did.
It was very sweet.
A beautiful present
for me to wake up to.
But a little short
on the details
of where you ran off to.
>> Tucker: I had a very
important errand to run.
>> Audra: Oh.
>> Tucker: Yes.
>> Audra: What kind of errand?
>> Tucker: All shall be
revealed quite soon.
>> Audra: You're being
very mysterious.
>> Tucker: Yes, I know, and
you love it when I'm mysterious.
>> Audra: Up to a point.
>> Tucker: Oh, yeah.
I think, I hope, I pray
you're gonna like this surprise.
>> Audra: Oh. What is it?
>> Tucker: I'm not telling you.
It's a surprise.
>> Audra: Oh, come on.
>> Tucker: No.
>> Audra: Okay,
what about a little hint?
>> Tucker: I don't think I can.
>> Audra: Fine. All right,
how about you just tell me
if I'm dressed appropriately
for this surprise of yours?
>> Tucker: Hm. I don't know.
You'll have to find out
for yourself.
>> Audra: Hm.
>> Traci: Okay,
do you need anything?
Food?
Do you need water?
>> Ashley: I'm okay.
>> Traci: Does your headache?
Okay, I'm gonna feel
your forehead, okay?
>> Ashley: I'm so sorry.
I don't want you
to have to do this for me.
>> Traci: Oh, come on.
>> Ashley: You're not my mother.
>> Traci: Oh, Ashley.
We take care of each other.
It's what we do.
[ Ashley sighs ]
Were you assaulted?
>> Ashley: Oh, no.
Thank God.
>> Traci: Oh, thank God.
>> Ashley: No.
>> Traci: All right,
these memory lapses,
can you talk to me about them?
Can you describe them?
>> Ashley: Oh, it's hard.
>> Traci: It's okay,
take your time.
>> Ashley: It's just really
strange because I'll be home,
and then, suddenly,
I'm all the way across town.
I have no memory
of how I got there.
>> Traci: And you're sure
that there's no pills or alcohol
involved in any of this?
>> Ashley: No,
it's not a blackout.
It's like a-- it's like
there's a dead zone.
It's like I can-- I can kind
of remember something.
It's kind of just out of reach.
It's almost right there.
But I can't.
It's so frustrating.
>> Traci: And terrifying.
I imagine it's terrifying.
>> Ashley: You have no idea.
>> Traci: Okay, we're gonna
figure out how to make sure this
never happens again.
I'm gonna help you.
>> Ashley: How?
I don't think you can help me.
I don't think anybody
can help me.
I was thinking that maybe
this was stress and
that it was gonna pass.
But I think it's getting worse.
And I'm afraid something
horrible's gonna happen.
>> Traci: Oh, honey.
Oh, honey.
>> Devon: Listen, I hear you.
I hear what you're saying.
And sure, maybe in the past,
Tucker did cause some
pain for me.
But I've come to the realization
that you can't miss
what you never had.
And I've never had him.
I've never been able to rely on
that guy, ever in my life.
And every single time he's tried
to come into my life, it's never
been about our relationship.
It's always him trying to get
something or win at something
or take over a company
or get his ex-wife to fall back
in love with him.
It's-- it's too much.
And he will try and wear
you down until he gets what
he wants because he can't
take no for an answer.
And that's not how
a father should behave.
And I know this because I am one
and I had the best example
I could ever ask for.
Neil is all the father
I'll ever need.
>> Lily: Devon, I know
that your relationship
with him is more complicated
than you're willing to admit.
I mean, look at
how shaken up you are
just by running into him.
>> Devon: I'm not shaken up,
okay? I'm just letting off
some steam to my sister.
>> Lily: Okay.
You know I'm always here
to listen to you.
But right now, we do have
more immediate problems to worry
about than Tucker McCall.
>> Tucker: Okay,
one more, one more step.
>> Audra: I don't... Ah, okay.
>> Tucker: Forward.
>> Audra: Can I open them yet?
>> Tucker: No, not yet. Not yet.
You're fine, you're fine.
Stop.
>> Audra: Now?
>> Tucker: Yes.
Huh?
>> Audra: Oh, my God.
Tucker.
>> Tucker: I figured since
we couldn't go to Paris,
I'd bring a little Paris to us.
You surprised?
>> Audra: Stunned
is more like it.
This is so-- so you.
>> Tucker: Mm.
>> Audra: Come here.
You really are a romantic.
>> Tucker: Yeah.
Don't let the word get out,
because it might ruin
my reputation.
>> Audra: Your secret is safe
with me.
>> Tucker: So, I take it
you approve?
>> Audra: Hm.
C'est magnifique.
>> Traci: You've been so brave
to tell me all of this.
Ashley, you're not alone.
Now, we're gonna take everything
we know and we're gonna move
forward from there, okay?
>> Ashley: How?
How do we do it?
>> Traci: Well,
I think you're right.
I think it sounds like these
memory lapses are getting worse.
So the first thing we need to do
is get you to a doctor.
>> Ashley: Ah.
You think it'll help me?
>> Traci: I do.
I think they need to rule out
everything that's physical.
So, there'll probably
be some tests.
Some blood work, a CT scan,
everything that can find out
what's wrong physically.
And then I think we're
gonna have to also consider
a mental health care
professional.
>> Ashley: Oh, please.
A therapist is not gonna be able
to help me with this.
>> Traci: No, look, I know
it's gonna be a lot
of trial and error,
but we have to explore
every avenue.
Ashley, it's not safe for you
to keep having
these memory lapses.
It could be neurological.
It could be psychological.
We don't know.
So, we've got to cover
every base.
Oh, honey, are you all right?
What is it?
Come on, sit down.
>> Ashley: I need some water.
>> Traci: Water, okay.
Okay, all right.
>> Ashley: They're gonna
put us away.
We can't let 'em do it.
We have to do something.
>> Nikki: I promise
to bring you back
a fabulous souvenir.
>> Jack: Not necessary.
As long as Victor has
a sunburn and sand fleas,
a postcard will do.
>> Nikki: What's this?
>> Andy: Courtesy
of the gentleman from the bar,
Mrs. Newman.
>> Nikki: There's nobody there.
>> Barman: He must've just left.
>> Nikki: What's in this drink?
>> Andy: Triple premium
distilled vodka.
>> Nikki: Take it away.
Please, take it away.
>> Jack: Hey.
>> Nikki: Did you find him?
>> Jack: I spoke
to your bodyguard.
He's been canvassing the area,
but he's been looking
for Jordan, not a man.
>> Nikki: Well, she put him
up to it, whoever he is.
>> Jack: We don't know that.
>> Nikki: I know that.
I am certain of that.
>> Jack: Andy,
the guy that left the drink,
is he a regular at the bar?
>> Andy: First time I've
seen him in here, Mr. Abbott.
>> Nikki: Do you believe me now?
Jordan has an accomplice.
Who knows how many she has?
I mean, am I being watched
all the time, wherever I go?
You were right.
You and Victor were both right.
I can't take this anymore.
I need to get away.
>> Devon: So what other problems
are you referring to
if it's not about Heather
and Daniel getting let go,
which I've already told you
I wasn't a big fan of?
>> Lily: No, no, that's
a problem solved in my book.
That's a done deal.
>> Devon: Well, it was your call
to make, so it's--
it's fine and we move on.
But you know that Billy isn't
gonna be okay with it,
since he has a contrary
opinion to everything
Chancellor-Winters these days.
>> Lily: And that is
the issue I'm talking about.
>> Devon: Tell me about it.
>> Lily: No, I'm talking about
this constant tension
between you and Billy.
>> Devon: Oh, well,
that's on Billy, it's not me.
>> Lily: I don't really
agree with that.
>> Devon: I'm not his biggest
fan, I'll admit that.
And it's frustrating
to work with him at times,
but that's a moot point
since you're back and there's no
reason for him to be
at the company anymore.
You do agree with me
about that, right?
>> Lily: I don't think
I agree anymore.
I mean, I've had time to think
about it, and I think that Billy
does have a purpose and a place
at Chancellor-Winters.
>> Ashley: What do we do now?
They're gonna lock us up.
>> Traci: Okay.
Here you go.
>> Ashley: Thank you.
Do you think that maybe
we could just keep
this between the two of us?
>> Traci: I-- I don't know,
Ashley, I-- I think--
>> Ashley: Please?
I mean, we're sisters, right?
I just need to know
that you have my back.
>> Traci: I will always
have your back.
>> Ashley: Okay, don't tell
anybody then, especially Jack.
You know how he is,
he's so bossy, he's just
gonna want to take control.
>> Traci: Ashley, Jack cares
about you as much as I do.
>> Ashley: I know.
>> Traci: He just wants
to see you feel better.
>> Ashley: Pinky swear, okay?
Don't tell anybody or I'm
not gonna go to the doctor.
>> Traci: Ashley.
>> Ashley: I mean it.
Pinky swear.
>> Traci: Okay, I won't tell.
>> Ashley: I gotta go.
>> Traci: Now?
>> Ashley: Yeah.
>> Traci: Where?
>> Ashley: Oh, I'm gross.
You know,
I'm gonna go take a bath.
I'm gonna go take a bubble bath.
>> Traci: Ashley.
>> Ashley: See you.
>> Audra: Isn't it a little
early in the morning for this?
>> Tucker: It's never,
never too early for us.
Never.
>> Audra: Uh,
what are we toasting?
>> Tucker: Toasting you.
>> Audra: Oh, really?
>> Tucker: Really.
To Audra Charles.
>> Audra: To us.
>> Tucker: Um...
I have a couple of things
I want to say to you.
I feel like as well as
you know me, I don't think
you know how much
you mean to me.
How much you've meant to me.
Of course,
that's understandable because,
uh, for the longest time,
I don't think I knew either.
But the fact is, you've been
the one who I confided in
and confessed to.
And who I counted on to
surprise me and amaze me.
Keep me on my toes.
So often, my days started
and ended with you
and I don't think I realized
until now how much
I needed that.
How much I needed you.
How much I love you.
Because I love you and I love
your fire and I love your depth.
And your sweetness,
which you will deny, I'm sure.
You don't want anyone
to know you're sweet,
but I know.
You're so sweet.
I-- I marvel at you, Audra.
And I just-- just being here--
just being this close to you,
it makes me feel so...
Like I'm where
I'm supposed to be, you know?
So...
I've spent my whole life
trying not to be vulnerable
and I'm feeling pretty
damn vulnerable right now.
Okay.
What the hell.
Marry me, Audra.
I love you.
And I want to show you
how much every day,
for the rest of my life.
