Come on, Kyle. Work with me.
Call me.
If Markham's dogs got a hold of you,
or, God forbid, Markham himself, I...
Oh, this was a mistake.
I should neverhave let you go to that man's place alone.
If anything happens to you, Diane will never forgive me.
And I want my wife back.
I want her to be okay. I want--
I want us all to be okay.
Markham, you had better have left by now, you son of a bitch.
Whatever you and Patty have planned...
it all ends tonight!
Come on, come on, come on, Dr. Markham.
Let's get this show on the road.
You're out and about with your so-called patient,
acting like a real doctor,
when a real doctor would never kidnap someone
and try to convince her she's lost her mind.
You bastard!
Uh...Jack, I will--
I will never forgive you, you--you bastard!
You have no hold over me, not anymore,
and I am speaking my truth to the universe.
In case there's a camera here or a listening device.
And you're just the type, aren't you,
to watch me on a monitor?
You disgust me!
No, no, no, no. There's no camera.
There can't be. You would have called me out before now.
And you would know that I found your burner phone.
Oh, yes, how could I have forgotten? A burner phone.
That's kind of suspicious, don't you think?
And what might your passcode be, Doctor?
Shall we give it another shot?
Hmm. There's so many ways to be naughty...
some better than others, and some much, much worse.
My, you do have a way with words, don't you?
Oh, and your tone is less than kind.
But I choose to ignore that, Jack,
because I find you so damn handsome.
Do you have something you wanna tell me?
Yes.
The hot tub is hot.
And so am I.
Good to know.
You were invited, but you kept me waiting.
Oh, dear. Apologies.
You're giving me mixed messages, Jack.
You know what they say.
"Only the heart knows the truth."
And your heart is conflicted.
See, you want me... and you resent it.
Gimme your hand.
You know, this isn't the time for th--
Give me...what I asked for, Jack.
Mmm. See this?
Right there. That's your life line.
And Ihave been there
every step of the way.
And I realized after all these years
of fighting fate, defying destiny...
hmm?
Yeah, you know what they say.
When the path is shown to you...
It's a choice.
A choice...
to follow the course.
Please turn the hot tub off
- when you're done. - You know what?
I told myself that I just needed to give you
a little bit more time--
You know, it turns out I need a bit more.
No, Jack, you are going to embrace this moment,
otherwise I'll think that you are stringing me along.
And you are smarter than that, aren't you, Jack?
When we were on that boat, oh...
...making love, I didn't even notice those bullet scars
from the first time you broke my heart.
Or the scar from the second time.
Do you have a gun you wanna tell me about?
No, Jack.
I think you know that it's, uh,
not your lovely skin that should be worried this time.
Wh--who--who's there?
Laurence?
Oh! Kyle!
Oh, Kyle! Oh...
Threats are not foreplay. At least they're not with me.
Oh!
Then why call it a threat?
Why not, um, cause and effect?
Huh? You see...
if I'm happy, then I can make you happy too, Jack.
But if I'm miserable, well...
everyone will suffer.
"Happy wife, happy life."
Diane is my wife.
You and I are not married.
Well, as you know, I was raised a Catholic.
We took our vows... and that's all she wrote.
You're mine.
And to hell with what I want, even if it's notyou.
Ah, which he, uh, said with no conviction whatsoever.
Wow. Your levels of denial are unbelievable.
You know what, Jack?
It's time for some realtalk, lover.
There is a reason that we are connected.
Now, you've been drawn to me all these years
when you're able to let your guard down.
Now, you can call it an altered state,
but it is my skin that you touch,
my lipsthat you kiss.
Yes, and I regret that with everything in me.
You should know that.
Oh...what?
You think you can be cruel to me, say cruel things,
and I'll just run away crying?
I'm not that same naive woman
that you discarded many years ago.
- I want my wife back, Patty! - Yes, well, here she is, Jack.
The first and future...
Mrs. Jack Abbott.
Bigamy is illegal.
Yeah? Well, so is murder.
Aw...
but love is lawless.
I don't want you.
Well, then, Jack, you better fake it till you make it.
Because if you don't...
it's your wife that will pay the price.
Kyle, I missed you so much! Are you okay? How did you find me?
I'm fine. Let me look at you. Are you okay? Are you hurt--
Yes, I'm fine! I've been fed, coddled, lied to, trapped.
I've been climbing the walls, planning my escape.
H-h-how did you get in here?
- We scoped the place out. - "We"?
Dad already tried to break you out.
Jack was here? W-why did he leave?
Markham's dogs. They got to him first.
Okay, wait. So you know all about him?
- How did you figure it out? - He met with Dad.
He told him you were in a clinic getting help.
I waited outside. I followed him here.
Really? Did he also tell your father
that I had a nervous breakdown on the side of the road,
one that I supposedly have blocked out of my mind?
Yeah. He told us you don't wanna hear from us.
Well, he is such a liar. He also told me
that Jack had moved on with Patty,
and I knew your father would never--
but Kyle, Kyle,
he's going to be back any minute--it's not safe.
No, no, Dad texted him from Patty's phone,
- said they needed to meet up. - Oh, so that's where
Laurence ran off to. But wait a second.
As soon as he realizes that she's not meeting him,
he'll be back-- we have got to get out of here!
How did you get past those dogs?
I gave them all the beef I could carry.
All right, well, then, let's go while they're busy.
They are right outside where I came in.
One look at us, and we'll be their next course.
Don't be that way.
That stern look, the pretense of disdain--
This is not a productive conversation, Patty.
Well, then let's ditch the words,
and then we can communicate through our body language.
No, I got a better idea. Why don't we retreat
to our own corners-- you over there, me over here.
So you can eye me lustily?
Yeah, yeah. We'll go with that.
Or we could go with the truth, that the world is a safer place
when you stay where I can see you.
Why fight the inevitable, Jack?
Why insist on the impossible, Patty?
I will never want you.
Well, remember when we almost broke the bed on the yacht?
- Okay, stop. Just stop. - Stop! Stop!
Oh, the irony, Jack!
I mean, I was just this young, naive woman,
and you turned to Diane for your primal needs.
But now we're both a bit wiser,
and, uh, you can have everything you want with me.
Jack, come on.
- Come on. - Ah--
Just take the robe off
and prove to me that you can resist me.
Doesn't this whole seduction routine
smack of desperation, of humiliation?
- Enough talk. - Yeah, enough, enough, enough!
You still don't get it.
You have threatened my wife.
It is the only reason we are speaking at this moment.
You know, don't think of it as a threat.
Just think of it as, uh, your hall pass, Jack.
You know, think of yourself like...
doing the act, a noble act,
to save Diane.
And when we make love like we did before...
you just have to let go of this guilt.
And, Jack, every night...
we can fulfill our destiny, hmm?
The only way out is the way you came in!
Mom, the dogs won't let that happen.
- There has to be another way. - If there was another way,
do you think I'd still be trapped here?
Kyle, he's set up a prison here.
Look! There's locks on everything,
and then the door is ridiculously thick.
You can't just ram it with your shoulder.
I'll take your word for it, but maybe there's a toolbox
- and I can work on the hinges. - No, that'll take too much time.
Do you have anything else to feed the dogs?
I mean, there has to be another way, Mom.
He can't just live in a death trap.
There are rooms that I haven't been able to go into
- because they're locked. - What the hell's wrong
with this guy? And he treats patients here?
We have to get you the hell out of here.
Exactly, so...okay, you try to deal with the door,
and I'm going to see what I can feed the dogs.
Just, as a backup, we will split up.
Yeah, because that always ends well.
Oh, God, he's back!
Maybe you haven't noticed. I don't enjoy any of this,
especially your threats against Diane.
Did you ever think about me, Jack?
All those years I was locked away, hmm?
No freedom, no friends.
It gets a little lonely.
It's soul-crushing if you ask me.
You know, no one to touch, stroke my hair,
hold my hand.
What you call seduction and desperation
I call human need and desire, Jack.
Just to feel alive, and you know what? You owe me!
I wouldn't have been locked up if it wasn't for you.
I deserve this, Jack.
You deserve--
You weren't locked up because of me,Patty.
You were locked up because you free in the world
somehow brings death and destruction!
Can't fight the inevitable, Jack.
You just are hell-bent on defying me.
That's because I find your threats pretty empty.
I'm starting to see this clearly now.
Markham is calling the shots, isn't he?
He has Diane right now.
He tells her what to do. You don't.
You don't have any access to her.
He has her in his home.
You're stuck with me here.
You don't get to threaten Diane.
You can't hurt her. Markham won't let you.
Where have you been, Jack? What have you been doing, huh?
I don't know what you're talking about.
- Have you been snooping around? - Why, you wanna shoot me?
No.
No, I never wanted to shoot you.
Oh, so that gun just fell into your hands
- and your finger itched. - Okay, stop it!
I'm really getting upset.
What do you have to be upset about?
You're getting exactly what you wanted--
you and me, here in this house,
no one else!
Ahh...
You're right, Jack.
You are right. Here we are, together.
Don't you just love the poetry of it?
You cheated on me with Diane all those years ago,
and the pain drove me to darkness.
And when we made love on that yacht,
oh, Diane saw us in our glory,
and now she is sitting in her darkness.
So you know what, Jack? Yeah.
She can stay alive.
But she needs to stay away,
and you can make that happen...
make it all come true...
if you make love to me.
So choose me, Jack.
Choose me right now.
All right, hide, hide. You've gotta hide. Oh, my God!
Mom. Mom, Mom, stop. It's over.
He can't hold both of us. I'm gonna handle
that son of a bitch, and we're gonna walk out the front door.
Kyle, no.I'm not gonna risk you getting hurt!
Mom, I've seen the guy. I'm not gonna get hurt.
Listen to me! What if he has a gun, all right?
I-I can handle this. I'm the one who has a plan.
I'm the one who's been trapped here, so hide!
Okay. If he lays a hand on you, I am coming--
All right, listen, Kyle. No matter what you hear,
do not come out until I call for you.
- I mean it. - W-what are you saying?
- What has this guy done to you? - No, I-I've got it, please.
Just trust me. Hide!
Go!
Diane.
I hope you haven't been bored waiting for me.
Uh, no. I prefer to think of it as, um,
- anticipation. - Ah.
I hope everything's okay with your patient.
Oh, it can all wait until tomorrow,
and I can stay here tonight with you.
What happened? You're flushed.
Did something happen while I was away?
Why are you looking away, Jack?
That's...
really cruel and unfair.
This is the body that you worshipped on that boat.
Excuse me.
All right.
I understand.
You don't like it
when someone unwraps your present for you, do you?
Aren't you tired of this?
Isn't this exhausting even for you?
Well, if you're tired, Jack,
I suggest you get yourself a pick-me-up
before you come upstairs.
A double shot of espresso from that fancy machine--
whatever it takes.
Tonight willhappen.
Patty. Patty.
What you said about being locked up--you were right.
I never thought of you.
My heart was never yours.
I was very selfish and I was very cruel when I married you.
But I got past it.
Somehow, you didn't.
My life was interrupted.
And now I have allthe time to make up for it.
Not for this. Not with me.
I didn't come this far to take no for an answer, Jack!
You willcome upstairs,
and you willmake love to me.
Not sex. Words matter to me.
You will love me, Jack.
If not, then I'm just gonna call the doctor
and tell him to release Diane
into my care.
So...
you know what you're going to do, don't you, Jack?
And you're gonna enjoy every minute of it.
You're not gonna call any doctor, Patty.
Silence.
I-I'm flushed? I-I didn't realize.
How embarrassing.
Am I pushing you too hard?
No! No. Of course not.
You've been so patient with me.
You know, I've told you I've had years of therapy,
but you're different.
You're not just a detached professional.
There's...there's more to it than that.
I have no idea what I was expecting with you here,
but it was never this.
Oh, it wasn't canapés and coq au vin?
- Is that what I smell? - Yeah.
The flavors need a little more time to meld,
but I think it will be worth the wait.
I'm sure it will.
- Can I help you in the kitchen? - Oh, no, no.
- Don't you dare. - You sure?
Tonight, I get to take care of you.
Yes, ma'am.
All right. Why don't you sit right down,
make yourself comfortable.
But you know, there is, um, there is something
that I would like to
- discuss before dinner. - What is it?
Uh, transference. I know...
I know that we touched on it a little bit earlier,
but I would like to go deeper
because I...I just feel...
well, I-I'm just not sure...
No, go on. Tell me your feelings.
There's no judgment.
Well, I think that sometimes we humans
try to explain away what can't be explained.
We try to force a label on things that just doesn't fit.
- Okay. - Sometimes, what we feel...
is simply what we feel.
Anyway, I need to get back to the kitchen.
Okay, you've got your drink,
and why don't you get started on these canapés?
You know, the roasted red pepper ones
have the loveliest little kick.
- I can't wait. - All right.
I'll just be a minute.
Patty. No more games, please.
You ask me to meet you and then you blow me off?
We need to get some things straight.
After tonight, this whole situation has to change.
Oh!
Oh, my goodness, Jack, you...
you're incredible.
Jack.
I wouldn't wanna be with you
if we weren't meant to be.
But fate has plans for us, Jack.
So do I.
Mmm!
Ohh...
Come on, Kyle.
We had a plan--get in, get out.
Deal with Markham, deal with the dogs...
Jack!
I'm ready for you!
Get your mother home safely, Kyle.
Get her home safely.
I will deal with our other unwanted guest.
Is it, um, Jarlsberg?
What do you think?
-Um... - Oh, now I'm scared you hate it.
No, they're good! Delicious.
Was the cheese too strong?
Not at all. Perfect way to whet...
our appetites.
Mmm.
Well, I'm glad you liked them.
Um, we agreed that I could have some wine with dinner,
- didn't we? - We did, indeed.
Uh, would you like to do the honors?
Mm! Be a pleasure.
What were we, um...
what were we saying before, something about...
- transference. - Yes. And your reaction,
when I brought it up the first time,
was so reassuring, you know,
someone brings up romantic feelings, and...
lines can get blurred.
But if the feelings are real,
they should be faced head on.
Yes. Feelings.
Do not run away.
Go towards them. Embrace them.
This has been such an emotional time for me here.
Fear, anger...
denial, acceptance.
Transference.
Meaning attraction.
Yeah. Attraction.
Does that... make you uncomfortable?
Not in the least.
Diane, if I'm honest-- can I be honest?
Oh, of course.
Haven't we been completely honest with each other
this whole time?
I have...
very strong feelings for you as well.
Diane...
you're a stunning woman.
You're brave, and you're beautiful.
And resourceful.
What?
I'm also resourceful.
- What do you mean? - I think you need to
lie down, Doctor.
Already?
Diane, you're incredible.
Oh, you poor thing. You work so hard.
Look at you, falling asleep standing up.
What's going on?
Well, the medication is kicking in.
The sedatives I got from your pocket.
You know those yummy canapés you ate?
- Hmm? - Yeah.
You can come out now.
You drugged me? You drugged me? But what about the feel--
your feelings for me?
Surprise, you sick son of a bitch.
Well, there he is, my one and only.
- Here I am. - Yes, you are.
Just where I want you.
Shall I undress you?
All you need to do is ask nicely.
I'm fine right where I am.
Well, standing works too.
Nothing's gonna happen tonight, Patty. Or ever.
I warned you, Jack.
And I am calling your bluff.
It's a very bad idea.
I make one call...
Kyle is with Diane right now.
They're on their way home.
That's ridiculous.
Oh?
- Recognize this? - Give me that.
Your password is Kitty.
- Do not say his name. - I used this earlier
to text Markham to lure him away,
give Kyle time to break into the house
to find his mother and...
it's all over, Patty.
My wife is coming home to me.
I need to call the police. I...
need to call the police.
Yeah, before you pass out, you can kiss your career
and your freedom goodbye.
You messed with the wrong family!
- I just need to make one call-- - No, just stay down!
- One call and-- - Stay down! What'd I tell you?
- He's out. - Great. How do weget out?
Uh, with his keys.
We just need to get to his car to get past the dogs.
Why does he have so many keys?
I don't know. The police can ask him.
- Okay, which one is it? - I'm not sure, Kyle.
Just start trying.
Quickly!
You are trying to fool me, Jack.
But the only one you're fooling is yourself.
Am I? I'm not so sure.
You made this move before.
You had mama's boy Kyle lure the doctor away from the patient,
then you showed up as the white knight.
And you did know about my little visit
- to Markham's place. - Yes, I did.
And it failed miserably.
Dr. Markham would never fall for that again.
Well, he didn't have to this time.
This time the message came from you--you wanted to meet.
He saw that, and he came running.
Kyle and I worked this out to a T,
and that's why I'm so sure that Diane is on her way to freedom.
That's not true.
It is. It's here. On your phone.
I didn't make that call, Jack.
I did not make that call to Laurence.
You're losing your grip, Patty.
The message is right there.
He called, and you kept this from me?
What do you think he wanted to say?
Maybe he was disappointed that you stood him up.
I have loved you...
so deeply my whole life!
Who has been devoted to you, Jack?
Who--who has turned themself inside out to be with you?
Me.
Me. It's always been me.
I have sacrificed myself for you,
and you just break my heart all over again--
For good reason, Patty.
You have always been wrong about me, Jack.
There is no pride in love.
And I'm gonna have to call the doctor now
- and tell him your decision. - Well, do what you must.
It's not gonna change anything.
You say that now.
This is a really sad moment for you, Jack.
You...just sentenced Diane to death.
How long will the sedatives keep him knocked out for?
Well, I gave him a double dose, so it should be a couple hours.
It doesn't mean we can take all night!
Hold on. I just have a few more keys.
You are a sick, twisted little man.
How dare you try and gaslight me,
insisting that I was mentally ill.
"First, do no harm"? Well, you harmed.
Or at least you tried to.
And even if I was insane, I would never--
- What's wrong? - Uh, I guess it's his phone!
- It's not a bomb. - Well, I'm sorry, Kyle.
My nerves are shot.
That's what happens when you're being held captive.
Oh, my God, it's Patty.
Do I dare?
Oh, I think you do.
Hello, Patty. Guess who.
Patty, answer me!
No.
- No! - Patty.
This can't be her! This--it's just a trick, Jack!
This is what failure looks like, Patty.
Your plan failed.
Diane is fine. She's on her way home to me.
Now, get the hell out of my house.
It's your pride, Jack.
It cost us everything!
Diane, you still there?
Jack! Jack, yes, it's me.
Kyle's with me.
It is so good to hear your voice.
Are you okay? Are you on your way home?
No, I'm fine, and yes. We're--we're working on it.
There is so much I wanna say to you.
Me too, but, um, I've gotta go right now.
Okay. Come quickly. Be safe.
- We got it. Let's go. - Okay. We're--
we're on our way.
Dad, we're in my car now. You're on speaker.
Is Diane okay?
I'm fine. I'm--I'm here.
- What about Markham? - I drugged him.
What?
- Mom spiked his food. - Wait--
he had you making his food?
Yes. It was-- it was part of my plan.
We had our plan, Dad. Mom had her own.
How long will he be out?
Uh, hopefully for the night.
I'll make sure the cops are there to deal with him
when he wakes up.
- What about Patty? -Gone.
For--for real?
Yeah. Gone.
I will burn everything she touched in this house.
I promise the whole family.
Exactly what I wanted to hear.
- We'll be home soon. - Okay, drive safely
and Diane...
I can't wait to see you.
You okay?
I missed you.
I missed your face. I missed your voice.
And, oh, my gosh, Harrison.
How I miss that little guy.
Come hell or high water,
I was determined to make it back to you.
It was sheer genius figuring out how to drug Markham.
Well, Kyle, this isn't my first rodeo.
- But you're really okay? - Yeah. I'm okay.
To be out of that house and to be sitting here next to you,
it's...it's heaven.
You must have been terrified, locked up like that.
Yeah, I was at first, but all that mattered
was getting away from there and getting away from that man.
And I never really gave up hope,
but there were moments that I...
I just...I mean, I didn't know if I could take any more of it.
And now I'm on my way home.
Home as in...
the Athletic Club...
or home as in home?
It's okay.
You don't have to make any decisions right now.
After everything you've been through,
it all can take a back seat.
Just so you know...
Dad was the one who warned me about the dogs.
He was positive you were in there.
Mom, he never gave up hope.
You know, your father and I have a lot to talk about.
I know.
But I never, for one second, stopped loving him.
When I say I wanna go home, Kyle...
I mean our home. I wanna go home to Jack.
We'll be there before you know it.
I thought you left.
- Just like that? - It can't happen soon enough.
Jack...
I have loved you all my life.
And you just broke my heart again.
This is what real love looks like.
You just never understood.
Uhh--
Jack, it's okay. It's okay.
It's okay. I'm here with you.
This isn't the end. You have my word.
Ohh...
I believe in love, Jack.
I believe in love. I believe in light.
And we...we are gonna be together forever...
just like we were meant to be, Jack.
I love you.
Next week on "The Young and the Restless."
So what are your plans going forward?
Honestly, I have... I have no idea.
Maybe we can remedy that for you.
All right, here we are, Mom. We're home.
Here you go, couple steps. Now step up.
-Careful. -There we go.
-Okay. -Nice and easy.
- Yeah. - You're doing so good, Mom.
Dad!
Do you think he went somewhere?
I don't think so,
unless he wanted to surprise you with something.
I expected him to be waiting by the front door.
He knew we were coming.
- What was that? - I don't know.
