Are you telling me that Victor Newman petitioned a court to have my mother's body exhumed?
That's what it says here.
I don't get it.
How can he do that?
I mean, doesn't someone in the family have to be notified to give permission?
According to this file, the next of kin was notified.
This Newman guy is probably related.
No, damn it.
He's not related.
I'm her son.
I'm the next of kin.
Well, then the petition to exhumed would have been served on you.
But it wasn't.
I knew nothing about this until I found an open grave.
It says here they were served on February 24, signed by the process server, served on
Cole Howard.
I'm Cole Howard.
Whoever received those damn papers, I don't know, but it sure as hell wasn't me.
Well, maybe someone instructed them on your behalf.
Unless they did it without my knowledge.
You know what?
Something's going on here.
Something damn weird.
And somebody's got a hell of a lot of explaining to do.
Excellent coffee, by the way.
Well, thank you.
I remember my mother teaching me how to make coffee when I was young.
Yeah.
Hope, come here.
What?
I want to thank you for having been so patient with me this past few days.
Well, what do you mean?
This whole situation with Cole and whether or not he's my son and if he is, what that
would mean to him and to Victoria, that is all I've been able to focus on.
I completely understand how anxious you've been and it's all right.
I just wish I knew the results of those damn genetic tests, get back to normal life.
I doubt Victor Newman will ever live a normal life.
You know what I mean.
I mean, pay the kind of attention to you that you deserve.
I haven't forgotten what I promised you.
Why are you smiling?
I know you're very sincere and I really appreciate that.
It's just that I have the feeling that you're never without some sort of crisis surrounding
you.
Oh, I guess it would seem that way, wouldn't it?
Because it is that way.
Your life is full of so much excitement and intensity.
I mean, something electric is always going on with you.
But that is what makes you Victor Newman.
April, sit here.
I'm so glad to see you.
Thank you.
We didn't think you were coming.
That was a real smart move of you girls showing back up here.
I told the group from our recent conversations I didn't know whether to expect you.
Well, I've had a pretty hard time.
It is hard.
Maybe the hardest thing you'll ever do, leaving a man you've built a life with, just walking
away.
That's one thing that's harder and us staying and taking that abuse day in and day out week
after week.
Thank you.
You know, now that I'm away from all of that, I don't know how I stayed so long.
And I sure as heck ain't never going back.
Never.
Nathan, what are you doing here?
What do you think I'm doing here?
Came to see my wife.
Then where's the baby?
Nathan's watching him so I could come over here.
Well, as you can see, Olivia's out of it.
She's been sedated to help her calm down.
I can wait.
Nathan, whether you know it or not, my sister is a sick woman.
She doesn't need any more grief.
So if you came here to stir up trouble-
Lucilla, I came here to talk to my wife, not to cause her any grief.
Nathan- Olivia, honey, can I talk to you?
I want to talk to you, too.
The Emmy award-winning The Young and the Restless, this portion sponsored by Crisco, cooks who
you are.
Trust Crisco.
Question is, how can you make all those foods you love in a way you can feel better about?
Chef Bert Wolf.
Here's one good answer.
Crisco oil.
You see, when you're cooking with oil, you want to cut back on saturated fat.
Compare Crisco to ordinary vegetable oils.
Crisco has less saturated fat, 25% less.
Crisco looks light.
And there's no heavy oily taste.
Mmm.
When you make what you love, make it smarter.
Make it with Crisco.
Cooks who know, trust Crisco.
Excuse me, think all bathroom tissues are the same?
Excuse what?
What was the question?
You're not for real, are you?
Tissue is tissue.
You obviously haven't tried Charmin Ultra.
Okay, it's a little softer.
It's a little like cushier.
In fact, it's maybe a lot softer.
It's better.
Charmin Ultra is so much thicker, it would take 75 more sheets of the next leading national
brand to be just as thick.
So we were wrong.
This is great.
Really?
We like it.
Softer, thicker.
Charmin Ultra.
Can we keep going?
Let me get this.
Look for Charmin Ultra in the new blue package.
State finals coming up.
A lot of pressure to win.
I don't eat right, I get irregular.
So I don't project the winning attitude, and the boys see that.
I tried some natural bulk fiber, but I couldn't take all that grit.
Then I discovered smooth texture metamucil.
No grit in the mix or the taste.
Easy to get the extra fiber I need every day to stay regular.
You got a winning attitude, you win, if you're lucky.
Smooth texture metamucil, the natural choice for regularity.
Mom?
I was wondering about Dad's birthday today.
What about him?
Aren't we going to do anything special?
Nicholas, you know your father and I are not on the best of terms right now.
But Mom, it's his birthday.
Are you all packed?
No.
Well honey, I told you, you had to finish packing.
Mom, I don't want to go away to school.
Why are you making me leave?
Because you're not doing that well here, and I thought that boarding school might allow
you to concentrate better.
Anyway, it's going to be incredible, it's a great school, and it's in Switzerland, the
Alps.
You'll be able to ski, you'll be able to horseback ride.
I can do all that here.
Don't argue with me.
The arrangements have already been made.
When you get there, you're going to love it.
I'll hate it.
Besides, I want to see Dad before I leave.
I thought Hope was having a party for him.
Well we are certainly not going to Hope's party.
Why?
Because she is the reason why we are not...
Forget it.
I don't want to get into it, Nicholas.
Just remember that that woman is not your friend.
She has intruded in our family.
Fine, I'll go pack.
My baby.
Nate, did you take him home?
He's with Neil, he's fine.
Is he still at your place?
Yeah, but don't worry, okay?
Honey, can we talk about this?
Yeah, of course.
Olivia, honey, are you sure this is a good idea?
I don't want Nathan upsetting you.
I'm not here to upset her for so long.
Yeah, well you've done a pretty good job of it already, Nathan.
Drew, look, can you give me a break here?
My wife and I have some serious stuff to discuss.
And we'd like to do it privately, if you don't mind.
Liv, it's all right.
All right.
I want you to think about you first.
I want you to think about your health.
You know what would make me feel better?
What?
If you went home and checked on my mom.
I know I'm Amy's weather, but she can't stay there indefinitely.
Do you mind?
If that's what you want.
Yes, please.
Have fun.
Tell us why you feel that way, Dolores.
I never go back to your husband.
I think back.
Back to the times that I spent with that man.
Most often, though, I just shut him out of my head.
And when you don't shut him out, what do you remember?
I remember how much I hated him.
How much I wanted to hurt him back the same way that he had hurt me.
Can you talk about that?
He'd have me pinned down.
He wanted what he wanted.
And sometimes that was after he'd just beat me up.
I guess that turned him on.
I didn't do anything to stop him.
He was just so much bigger than me and stronger than me.
Oh, God, if he only knew what was going on in my head,
what I was thinking that I could do to him,
what I would do to him someday if I got the chance.
Oh, God, I just wanted to hurt him so bad like he was hurting me.
Hello, this is Dr. Robert Lynch, Dover Suite.
Yes, sir, what can I do for you?
Would you prepare my bill I'm going to check out today?
When will that be, Dr. Lynch?
When?
I mean, before our standard checkout time?
Well, I've got a few more things I've got to take care of.
Then you want a late checkout?
How much longer will that give me?
Two extra hours, no way to charge.
Good. Prepare the bill. I'll be down sometime later to sign it.
When you're using lots of tissues, are they soft enough?
No, never.
It's really blowing a lot. That's why you get a rotten nose.
It's really sore right around the edge.
That's why there's Ultra Soft Puffs.
Wow, it's really soft.
Very velvety.
You see, puffs are puff for softness that really adds up.
Softness that four out of five people prefer.
Nobody uses one tissue.
I could go like this and I didn't have any rotting.
Puffs does not offend your nose.
I'm going to change to puffs.
Ultra Soft Puffs, softest on your nose through all the blows.
This morning my nose said thank you.
You've never had cereal like this before.
It has the enticing aroma and the spice of ground cinnamon,
the delicious savory crunch of rolled oats baked to perfection,
the sweetness of brown sugar, a touch of vanilla, and a sprinkling of nutmeg.

The new Kellogg's Cracklin' Oat Bran, now baked with an even more irresistible recipe.

It's the bran you'll eat for taste alone.

Something fishy's going on with Meow Mix.
They added even more delicious salmon flavor
to the chicken, turkey, and salmon tastes cats love.
So give him the tastes he's fishing for.
Meow Mix brand cat food.
With more salmon flavor, the only cat food that tastes so good.
Cats ask for it by name.
Meow.
Lily, thank God.
Holden's found Lily.
Did you call the police?
No, I didn't have a chance.
Too bad, because Hans has found them both.
You're nothing but a cowardly piece of filth.
What I am is in control.
Now what in the world will they do?
Mom!
As the world turns.
You gotta love a guy like Tom.
Wednesday on CBS.
Couldn't you stop her?
Wasn't there anything you could say?
I tried, Paul, but April was determined to leave.
Well, did she say where she was going?
No.
Only that she felt that she was a burden
and should never have come to Jennifer City.
Oh, God.
She goes back to that husband of hers.
You feel that Robert Lynch is still in town?
I think there is a very good chance.
And if April connects with that creep,
there is no telling what he might do.
Deep down, I still think that girl believes
that Robert Lynch could change.
Not without a lot of help, he couldn't.
Well, I tried to tell her that, Christine,
but there was no reasoning with her.
She just made up her mind.
Yeah, she's made up her mind, but to do what?
I just want to know where she is.
How we can find her.
I know what you mean, Dolores,
about the rage and the anger inside.
I have his thoughts, too.
I feel so guilty, but sometimes I just wish
I could just do to Manuel what he's doing to me.
I know it's wrong, but sometimes I just,
I hurt so bad and I just, I want him to hurt, too.
Look, to have these thoughts,
that is the most natural thing in the world.
Violence breeds violence.
I know what that's like living in a violent atmosphere
and constant fear.
It is a very normal reaction to want to lash out.
But just know something.
When these thoughts normal or not become prevalent,
you are headed for trouble.
Because someday that kind of rage will ultimately explode.
Let me tell you something.
If you feel that you are being pushed to the limit,
all I can say is get out now.
Don't wait.
Until you snap, until it's too late, leave.
That is the best advice that I can give
any woman in an abusive relationship.
Amen.
Oh, Drew.
Honey, I'm so glad that you're back.
Can you tell me what's going on?
How's Olivia?
Maybe she's back in the hospital where she belongs.
Poor thing's so out of it to have her medicated,
you know, to try to make her rest.
Is she going to be all right?
I hope so.
Well, where is the baby?
Um, the baby's with Neil at Nathan's.
And why is he there?
Why isn't he here in his own home?
Well, Nathan asked Neil to watch the baby
so he could visit Liv.
Nathan is at the hospital with your sister?
Yeah.
Oh, no, this is not good.
He is only going to upset her and make things worse.
Well, I thought so at first, too, Aunt Mamie,
but maybe this will give them a chance to get together again.
Anyway, I'm sure they're going to talk about
what's best for little Nate.
I just know that I am never going to see my grandbaby again.
Lily, what on earth are you talking about?
It's true. Nathan hates me.
And if he and my daughter work out their problems,
it'll mean that I'll never see little Nate again.
Oh, that's nonsense. Nathan does not hate you.
But he does. He despises me.
Why do you think he left in the first place?
Because of me, that's why.
Mama, this kind of talk isn't going to get us anywhere,
and you're wrong to make us choose between you and Nathan.
It's Olivia that's important here,
getting her strong and back on her feet
so she can come home and be the mother and doctor that she is,
and we have got to stop fussing and fighting.
It's easy for you to say I'm going to be the one to suffer.
Now, look, that is quite enough.
Now, Lily, I understand that you have not been well,
but you are wrong about this. Dead wrong.
Now, it is time for you to change your attitude.
As long as you keep thinking like this,
the more it's going to affect the rest of us,
particularly this little family here.
Aunt Mamie's right, Mama.
Look, I'm sorry. I've got to go.
I'm sure that the Abbas must be wondering what's happened to me.
There's no reason for you to hang around, Aunt Mamie.
Please stay a while longer.
Trust me, we will be fine.
Lily, I will talk with you tomorrow.
Are you sure you're going to be all right?
I can handle her.
Well, Mama, it's just you and me.
What do you say we try to make the best of it?
Every woman is looking for the perfect fit.
You bet.
That's why Tampax tampons give every woman a personalized fit,
unlike pads that can shift and move.
Who needs that?
Tampax tampons really fit your inner body,
so they're more comfortable,
and they give you maximum protection by expanding three ways.
No pad does that.
So no matter what pad you use,
it will never give you the personalized fit of a Tampax tampon.
Bet you don't know what's in your cereal.
Oh, yeah? Try me.
Cheerios has added salt.
Salt? Are you kidding?
Cracklin' Oat brand has added fat.
Fat?
Cornflakes has added sugar.
Sugar.
But Nabisco Shredded Wheat has no added salt, fat, or sugar.
It's made from just natural, delicious, 100% whole grain wheat.
So what do you think of that?
Very good.
Very good.
Great.
Nabisco Shredded Wheat. It's just naturally good.

All-new Tom after the nanny Wednesday.
Victoria?
Where have you been?
Walking.
Thinking.
I just saw Cole earlier in the stables.
Oh, really?
Yeah, really.
Something wrong?
No, nothing.
I thought I detected a hint of disapproval.
Whatever look you read in my expression had nothing to do with you, Victoria.
I just had an unpleasant run-in with your brother.
About what?
It doesn't matter. It's been resolved.
So what did you and Cole talk about?
A lot of things.
We're still very close, you know.
Does that bother you?
Is that what you think?
Yeah, actually I think it bothers you a lot.
Why would you say that?
Stop pretending, Mother.
I know how you feel about Cole.
Mom, think really hard. Did April give you any kind of clue as to what her plans might be?
No. I couldn't get any information out of her that would help.
What kind of mood was she in?
She was upset. She said she felt like a fool for thinking she had any kind of a future with Paul.
Well, I tried to handle it as delicately as I could. I just didn't want to see her hurt.
No, stop it. You had to tell her the truth.
Still, it was obvious that she was hurt.
If anything happens to her now...
Oh, Cole, now it's not your fault. You did the best you could to help her. We all did.
We all tried to help her to understand that she'd be making a terrible mistake if she went back to that abusive husband of hers.
Well, apparently we failed.
Not necessarily. Maybe she just wanted to be alone for a little while, think things over.
Maybe she checked into a motel someplace.
Mom, speculating really doesn't help much.
I just hope to God that April isn't about to make the biggest mistake of her life.
Does anyone have a reaction? Anything they want to say?
There's a piece you left out. Something else that can happen.
What do you mean, Suzanne?
Well, even if you hold it together, manage to hang on somehow, not go off the edge, just take it and keep on taking it, there's always a chance that he can flip out.
Like your husband, you mean?
Yeah. Like my husband. That night, I'm sure he would have killed me if my neighbor hadn't stopped him.
You know, we're not the only ones with all this rage inside. It's these men, too. And they're usually the ones that start the cycle, keep it going.
Well, then why? Why do they do it?
For most abusers, it's something they learned as children. For them, it was a method of control, of resolving conflict, getting what they want.
Well, then why can't they just unlearn it?
Well, I've told you this before, there are treatment centers for men who abuse women. And yes, some of them have a degree of success.
Especially with men who can admit they're doing something wrong and want to change.
But most of these men, they don't think they're doing anything wrong. They say it's the woman's fault.
That if only she were a better wife or a better lover, or were more concerned about his needs, then he wouldn't have to beat her up like this.
But what if the man, what if he knew that he'd made mistakes and he really wanted to change?
Well, then maybe there would be hope. If he's sincere and if he really wants to change.
But don't forget, girlfriend, men like ours want control and they will do anything to get it. They want to keep you there.
How many times did my old man say to me that he was sorry and that it would never happen again?
And how much I wanted to believe that he meant it until the next time he beat me up.
I'm not going back to New York alone, April. What would people think? I can't keep my own wife in line.
Can't hold on to my woman. It's not going to be that way, April.
No, sweetheart. When I get on that plane tonight, I'm not going to be alone. I'm going to have my loving wife at my side.
You're never leaving me, April. That is not going to happen.

Okay, hey listen, I admit it. I don't just like food, I love food. And did it ever show? But look at me now. Man, I lost 55 pounds last year on the Ultra Slim Fast Plan.

I've never done anything in my life that I've been more proud of. And does it show?

All right, young lady, obviously something is on your mind. Why don't you just spit it out?
I think you know exactly what's on my mind.
I am not in the mood for games.
Well, this isn't a game.
Will you just tell me what is bugging you?
You, mother, you're bugging me.
Me? And what have I done now?
Oh, God, you're so obvious.
Obvious about what?
About Cole. The way you're coming on to him, it makes me sick.
Coming on to him?
It's disgusting. I mean, it's embarrassing.
A woman your age, a young man like Cole, don't you have any pride?
I have no idea what you're talking about.
Don't play innocent with me.
I know, all right? I was here. I overheard. I saw.
What, you didn't think I was going to find out?
I don't create these situations deliberately.
Maybe not, but you're like a magnet for excitement. It clings to you and surrounds you like an aura.
Like an aura?
Mm-hmm. Don't get me wrong. I'm in awe of you most of the time.
The way you manage your life and gingerly step through the minefields.
Well, you may not believe it, Hope Adams, but I would welcome some very normal routine periods.
Oh, don't kid yourself, Victor Newman. You'd be bored to death.
Wait a minute. Remember how content and relaxed I was on your farm in Kansas?
Oh, come on. Even then, you were in turmoil about what to do, return or stay,
and if I return, when? You could never sit still. You never relaxed. I remember.
Compared to my existence in Genoa City, I was relaxed on your farm.
Listen, don't get me wrong. I'm not criticizing you.
And I think it's amazing how you deal with all these situations on a daily basis.
Well, let's just suppose we withhold judgment until I get back the results of this genetic test.
Then we'll see how I'll do.
Hello.
Hi, Dad.
Hey, my boy.
I was just calling to wish you a happy birthday.
Well, that's awfully nice of you, my boy.
I'd almost forgotten.
I really wanted to come to Hope's party for you, but Mom says I can't.
You didn't?
I just really wanted to wish you a happy birthday in person.
It's good to hear your voice, my boy.
I love you, Daddy.
I love you, too.
Well, I guess I don't have that much more to say.
Happy birthday.
Thank you for calling, Nicholas.
Sure. I'll be thinking about you.
Same here.
Goodbye.
I miss you, Dad.
I miss you, too, my boy.
You're planning a birthday party for me?
I was trying to, but I guess Nicholas let it slip.
Happy birthday, Victor.
What a nice idea. I didn't realize you knew.
Douglas told me.
So you were trying to pull the family together, huh?
Yes, I was.
To no avail, I gather.
Victor, I'm so sorry.
Don't be sorry.
I appreciate the thought of you wanting to heal some wounds for me.
And these necklaces wanted to be here.
That's one thing I wanted to say to you.
With everything that's going on right now,
don't forget about the son that you do have, loves you.
All right.
Just the one person in my family I so feel close to that I have a bond with.
Open up, Victor. I want to talk to you.
Miss Brady, what are you doing to our new no-wax floor?
I'm cleaning it.
Cleaning it with Murphy's Oil Soap? Where's the wood?
Well, I did a little reading up on the subject.
Naturally, gentle, safe, cleaned no-wax floors, painted surfaces. How novel.
And I must admit it does look beautiful and smells so nice.
As I've always said, the road to enlightenment begins with knowledge.
Murphy's Oil Soap trusted the clean wood and no-wax floors, too.

Don't worry, your kids won't hide from it.
A cereal made from whole green oats.
Don't worry, your kids will eat it.
It's Quaker Oat Life. Lightly sweetened inside, roasted toasted oats outside.
Life tastes so delicious, unless they're weird, your kids will eat it.
So you're saying abusive men never want to change?
There have to be some men who want to change.
I mean, there have to be some men who don't want to go on being like this.
Mainly, April, they want you to change.
Men like this, they convince themselves that whatever happens, it was your fault.
You drove them to it.
My husband used to say that he just lost control.
But I now know that he was very much in control.
Well, so how did you do it? How did you break away?
Maybe I'm just weak.
I'm just, I'm afraid, I'm afraid of the future, of the unknown.
I don't think you're weak, April.
I know exactly how you feel.
I mean, you have a little girl to think about, just like I have my boy and soon a baby.
I mean, you have to think about your children.
How are you going to provide for them?
Something else you should both remember.
What the statistics tell us.
You've heard this before, but I'll say it again.
65% of men who abuse their partners will also abuse their children.
65%, that is virtually two-thirds.
Well, you know, that isn't the problem in my case.
It isn't because Robert would never do anything to hurt Heather.
He loves her so much.
Well, what does that say about his feelings for you?
Oh, this whole thing is just so unfair.
I mean, I look at what Suzanne is going through.
I mean, Suzanne, you don't have anything right now.
Is that true?
I mean, you're just staying at the shelter.
You're fighting to get something from your divorce.
You don't have any real home.
You don't have any money.
And you are the victim.
It's like you're being punished.
You are the one who has to pay the price.
And you left your husband. Why?
Because he abused you?
Because he threatened to kill you?
And now look at you.
You have nothing.
I do have one thing, April.
No two.
I have my life, and I have my self-respect.
I have no idea what tomorrow is going to bring.
But I know this much.
That I have lived my last day of allowing myself to be subjected to violence.
That part of my life is over.
Whatever the cost, even if I end up with nothing.
I mean, what's a car or a house or all the furs and jewels that money can buy if you're dead?
How much does an expensive boarding school mean if it costs a little girl her mother?
You think about that.
And you think about that long and hard before you go back to that man.
That husband of yours that beats you.
You can't trust him, April.
He's proven that over and over again.
I know.
I've been there, too.
Okay, so for your sake.
And for your daughter's.
Don't go back to him.
Please don't do it.
Well, I'll see you real soon, darling, okay?
I'll call you so that you can plan when to meet me.
I can't wait.
I love you so much, Daddy.
I love you, too, sweetie.
More than you'll ever know.
Bye-bye.
Leverage.
This should be all the leverage I need.
You're gonna see things my way, April.
Your daughter loves me.
She wants us to be a family.
She wants time with her dad.
Damn you, April.
I hate using Heather to get you back with me.
It's not the way I wanted this.
But I've got to get you back.
I need you.
You need me.
We belong together, April.
Whatever I've got to do to make that happen, that's the way it's gonna be.
Oh, I know how you feel.
But there was really nothing more that you could do.
Your mom's right.
When all's said and done, the ultimate decision whether or not to go back to her husband has to be April's.
And we can only hope and pray that she makes the right decision.
The one that we know is the best for her and her child.
What if she doesn't?
There's no way of stopping her.
Not now.
We don't even know where she's gone.
Think of all the time we spent, the talks we had with her, the support we've given her, the contact she's had with other women in the same situation.
I mean, this could all be for nothing, couldn't it?
We just have to keep our faith.
We've shown her the path.
Now it's up to her to take it.
I have this horrible feeling that sooner or later this whole thing is going to end in disaster.
Nothing spoils a great look like messy white antiperspirants.

She trusts you for everything.
And your breast milk is best.
But if she needs a formula, who can you trust?
You can trust Gerber.
There simply is no better formula.
If it doesn't come from you, shouldn't it come from Gerber?
Well, here we are at the Temple of Body Worship.
And a quick read discovery.
Shocking discovery.
Tropicana twister-like has fewer calories yet tastes wildly provocative.
How could they?
Apparently they desire firm little bodies.
While indulging their insatiable lusts for pleasure.
Tropicana twister-like, the first bottle juice drink with NutraSweet.
More taste excitement than Mother Nature intended.
I think we've seen quite enough of this little peep show.
Mom, know what your child is sure to find inside every box of Frosted Flakes?
40% more sugar than Honey Gold from Wheaties.
What a surprise.
Crunchy sweet Honey Gold from Wheaties.
Bet they'll never miss the sugar.
I don't appreciate you knocking on my door like this.
Come in.
Quick, Draught.
I guess you've never met Hope Adams.
Hope, this is Cole Howard.
I'm very pleased to meet you, Cole.
Look, uh, forgive me for coming in here like this, Hope,
but I need to talk to Victor alone.
It's something terribly urgent.
And it's something I can't put off.
Would you mind?
Not at all.
Victor, I'm gonna go to my room, all right?
All right.
I've heard a lot about you, Cole.
Victor talks about you all the time.
I just hope someday that we get the chance to know each other better.
I understand you're a remarkable young man.
Excuse me.
Victor, what in God's name is the matter with you?
What is your obsession with my mother?
Mama, can we try?
Can we try to get along?
For heaven's sakes, Drusilla, stop pretending.
Pretending about what?
About wanting to be alone with me.
You want to punish me,
force me into staying here with you alone.
Mama, you're tripping.
I just thought it was very selfish of you to expect Aunt Mamie to stay here
knowing full well that she has a job and commitments with the Abbots.
Now, Olivia is sick.
Julia is sick.
So like it or not, it's you and me.
I think you're trying to just get back at me.
For what?
For everything that's happened around here.
You're thinking that if I hadn't come here,
that none of this would have happened.
Why don't you, why don't you say it?
Why don't you admit it?
All right, Mama, I will tell you this much.
I think you could have been a hell of a lot more sensitive to what was going on.
I know it.
You do blame me.
You know what I think?
What?
I think you've been adding things up.
I think you've been checking out what's been going on.
And what you have is one big guilty conscience.
How are you doing?
I'm fine.
Hey, we don't look so good.
It's fatigue, that's all.
I'm sorry about what happened.
Me too.
I never meant for you to be hurt.
Because I was just weaker than I thought.
Liv, look.
Nathan, will you do something for me, please?
What, baby?
Take Nate home.
Liv, you know I can't do that.
It's where he belongs.
Liv, we've been through this before.
There's no one there to give him the proper care.
That's why I took him in the first place.
Drusilla's there.
Drusilla does not know enough to take care of a baby.
Not enough for me, anyway.
Because she means well.
She loves our son.
But she doesn't have any experience in caring for a baby.
And besides, Drusilla and your mother don't get along.
Detention's got to be thick in that apartment.
I think it's best you stay with me.
Nathan, I'm going to be home soon.
He's going to have his mommy back.
Olivia, you have no idea when you're going to be well enough to go home.
And even then, it's going to take a while for you to get your strength back.
You can't step into that apartment and take care of our son and your mother at the same time.
The best you're going to be able to do is to take care of yourself.
What are you saying?
I'm saying that that apartment is not the best place for little Nate right now.
How can you do this, Nathan?
How can you say that you care for me and take my baby?
It's our baby, Olivia.
What's the matter with you?
What kind of a man do you think you married?
What are you afraid of?
I'm his father.
You think I'm going to take him and disappear?
Haul you in the court?
Olivia, look, I'm just trying to do what's best for little Nate right now.
And being with a sick mother who's trying to take care of a sick mother,
that's not what's best for him.
You've got to understand.
You've got to get back up on your feet.
Our lives have to get back to normal.
Until that happens, Olivia,
the baby stays with me.

Victoria, I cannot imagine what you think you are.
I was right up there on the stairs.
I watched your little tea and sandwich routine,
the way you fawned over Cole.
I did not fawn.
Oh, Cole, isn't the tea delicious?
Oh, can't I convince you to have one teeny-weeny little sandwich
all the time you're batting your baby blues
like some lovesick airhead?
That is enough.
Oh, that's not all.
I overheard you talking to Catherine Sterling, too.
Oh, really?
Well, it seems like you've been spending an awful lot
of your spare time eavesdropping on my conversation.
Enough time to know that you are making
a complete fool out of yourself.
Your little romantic horseback rides with Cole
as if he can't see right through you.
I think you've gone a bit too far now.
I think it is you that has gone too far.
Do you have any idea how it makes me feel
to hear you tell Catherine Sterling that my marriage
would have never worked out,
that Cole needs a woman, not a girl?
That you're coming close?
Well, I'm sorry if the truth hurts, Victor.
You're too gaga over Cole to know what the truth is.
The way you're acting makes me want to throw up.
I will not have you talk to me this way.
Well, maybe it's about time someone talked to you.
Maybe it's about time someone held a mirror up to your face.
Victoria, I am warning you.
Don't worry, Mother. I'm not going to come between you two.
Between you and your little boy toy, I'm leaving.
I'm getting the hell out of this city
and the hell out of this house.
Is that right? Are you saying that you think I'm going to
stop you from leaving? Well, I'm not.
I'm not your gift. I don't know how much money
I want to take with you. I don't want your damn money.
I can get by just fine on my own. Good!
God, you make me sick.
You're pathetic.
And I feel sorry for you.
An obsession with your mother.
I don't know what you're talking about. The hell you don't, Victor.
I know what you did. What do you think I did?
Lose the innocent act, Victor.
All right? You might have gotten away with it
if I hadn't decided to go visit my mother's grave
the same damn day you were having her body dug up.
What, are you going to deny it?
The cemetery manager,
he tried to give me some song and dance about it being a mistake.
But it wasn't a mistake, Victor,
because I found out the truth. You got a court order
to have my mother's body exhumed.
You lied to the judge about me being notified
that it was going to happen. What I want to know is
why did you do it, Victor? Why were you tempered
at my mother's grave? Why can't you just let her rest in peace?
I had my reasons called. You had your reasons?
You answer me!
You tell me what your
reasons were!
I want to know!
I know that you
trusted and believed in your mother.
But I knew a different Eve Howard.
I knew an Eve Howard
who was deceptive
and manipulative. She talked about my mother
and my father!
It's better this way, Cole.
