Mariah: Ooh! Nothing like coming downstairs in the morning, having a cup of coffee waiting for you.

Noah: Well, I hope you had up at your place because this one is for dad.

Mariah: Rude.

Noah: [ Chuckles ]

Mariah: So, you’re already buttering up the boss. Please tell me you accepted Nick’s job offer.

Noah: I did.

Mariah: Yay! So you’re less of a flight risk now.

Noah: I’m not sure I like those criminal connotations, Miss.

Mariah: You know what i meant. I know that you said that you were planning on staying and you’ve been here for a while now, but I got the sense that you didn’t want to be tied down, but now you’ve made a commitment.

Noah: Well, it’s a commitment to see how things go. So, how about you? You seemed kind of stressed out last night. Is everything okay with you and Tessa?

Mariah: Yeah, everything’s amazing. It’s better than it’s ever been. Um, I just have a couple of friends going through a tough time. And I see both sides of the situation. But there’s nothing I can do. So I just have to sit back, hold my breath, and hope everything works out for the best

****************

Amanda: But she is holding her own. She has so many contacts from working with the family.

Elena: Ah. So that means a lot of people in politics, right?

Amanda: Yes, and she has not been shy about reaching out and, um, getting in touch.

Elena: Really? Shocking. She’s always been so timid and self-effacing.

Amanda: [ Chuckles ] She did give me an earful about her last encounter with you and Nate.

Elena: [ Chuckles ] Yeah. Surprisingly enough, she didn’t seem as happy as everyone else about us living together.

Amanda: So, how is Nate?

Elena: Who’s asking — you or your sister?

Amanda: Both, maybe.

Elena: [ Laughs ] He’s fine. I mean, honestly, he’s wonderful. He’s a great housemate. And you can feel free to tell your sister that we went with the beige bathroom rug. She’ll know what I’m talking about.

Amanda: Okay. Well, cheers to you both.

Noah: It had become so unorganic. There was no joy in it. I had no spark, and it wasn’t until I came back here and started working on Tessa’s album cover that it finally came back. Anyways, I’m gonna get back to my art, doing it for myself, but first, I feel like I need a reset, and I think being a part of what my dad’s created is a step in the right direction. And now that I have a better understanding of what New Hope’s all about, I admire this guy even more. You know, he gets up every day and actually improves people’s lives. He doesn’t brag about it. He doesn’t have a pr firm. He doesn’t just say he’s gonna give back to the community. He just gets out there and does it.

Nick: Okay, that’s — that’s more than enough.

Noah: [ Laughs ]

Nikki: [ Chuckles ]

Noah: Besides, what could be better than working with my old man?

Victor: Not a thing, son. Not a thing.

***************

Lauren: …Is Victor himself. The man thrives on chaos.

Michael: No, the man is a business genius who simply wants to secure his legacy.

Lauren: Oh, honey. He does not want to hire a man of your caliber so he can ride peacefully off into the sunset. He needs a legal ninja who can kick ass and take names and move along his agenda.

Michael: He did say things were about to get interesting.

Lauren: [ Laughs ] See? I knew it.

Michael: No, I’ll be doing exciting work that will get my blood going. That’s a definite plus in my book.

Lauren: Right, in the shark-infested waters of the Newman corporate world and the accompanying family drama.

Michael: [ Clears throat ] Which would make for some rather pleasant pillow talk.

Lauren: [ Chuckles ] You are very sexy when your blood is boiling.

Billy: I wanted to personally thank you for that text message that you sent to lily congratulating her on her new position at Chancellor Industries.

Adam: Yeah. I understand that there’s another round of kudos I should bestow. Heard you were just named COO.

Billy: That is correct, yes. I didn’t get a text message from you.

Adam: Mm.

Billy: Seriously, though, thank you very much for reaching out to Lily in that way. It’s appreciated. You can’t imagine how surprised I was when I heard you did so.

Adam: Oh, I’m sure I can.

Billy: No. Trust me. You can’t.

*****************

Billy: Welcome to your new office, madam CEO.

Lily: Thank you. Same office I had when I was running ChanceCom.

Billy: Yeah, that’s true. It’s a little bit different, you know. Thanks to Nick and my wheeling, dealing mother, you now have the entire building, not just this floor.

Lily: I know. Well, it’s nice. I kind of like it. Nice to have something familiar when there’s been so many changes.

[ Gasps ] Aww. Flowers and liquor?

Billy: Don’t look at me.

Lily: No? Oh, it’s from Jill congratulating us on our first day. The scotch is for you, of course.

Billy: Well, she knows me well.

Lily: “I believe in you both and know that you will accomplish great things. Now go kick some ass. Jill.”

Billy: That’s my mother for you. We better listen to the lady and enjoy this last moment of peace we will have in these hallowed halls.

Lily: Very sweet. It is weird, though, coming back to an old office to start a new job, right?

Billy: Yeah. It’s like returning to the scene of a crime.

Lily: Well, I got to say, we did some great things here.

Billy: And in the copy room. Do not forget the copy room.

Lily: No, I could never forget the copy room.

Rey: Ooh! We should do that more often.

Sharon: Yes, absolutely. Thank you for braving the museum with me.

Rey: Are you kidding? I loved it. Besides, I figured I should learn more about art since noah’s living here now. Although none of those paintings were as beautiful as you are.

Sharon: Aww.

Rey: [ Chuckles ]

Sharon: Oh, hey, Nick.

Nick: Hey.

Sharon: What are you doing here?

Nick: You guys look like you’re in a pretty good mood.

Rey: We are.

Sharon: Having some French food, walking through a museum — it can do wonders for your mind-set.

Nick: Well, don’t mind me. I’m just sitting here minding my own business, waiting for Noah.

Sharon: Oh. What are you two meeting about? The job offer?

Nick: Hey.

Noah: Hey.

Sharon: Oh, great. Now both of you can fill us in.

Noah: On what?

Sharon: On what you’re meeting with your dad about.

Noah: Well, first off, nosy. Secondly, I think I need to talk to dad in private for a sec.

Sharon: Okay. No problem.

**************

what’s going down out there.

Sharon: Nope. I already know. Noah accepted Nick’s offer.

Rey: You could hear that from in here?

Sharon: I can tell by the look on Noah’s face. I’m happy he and Nick are bonding like that. It means that Noah’s gonna stick around, hopefully for a very long time. It just feels like life is exactly the way that it should be.

Lily: Ah, this is exactly what I needed.

Billy: [ Chuckles ]

Lily: I’ve just been throwing myself into work so much trying to get ready for the big day, i didn’t realize how tense I was.

Billy: Well, I’m glad I could help you relax.

Lily: So, now can I ask questions?

*****************

Billy: Well, first and foremost, I apologized, and i also confessed about my ill-fated plan to get back at victor and Adam for everything they did to us. I was also very clear that my change of heart came because of your guidance, and she was very grateful for that. She honestly believes that you are my guardian angel.

Lily: Well, I appreciate the credit, but I do think that you’re underselling the strength it took to turn the other cheek to the Newmans.

Billy: Mm.

Lily: So, just tell me — did your mom accept your apology?

Billy: My mother and I making up usually involves a bone-crushing hug while she calls me an idiot. So, by that definition… yeah, we healed.

Lily: So, are you coming to Chancellor as COO?

Billy: Yes.

Lily: [ Laughs ]

Billy: I am your COO, with, of course, my mother’s blessing.

Lily: Ooh, good, I’m so glad!

Rey: What’s a nice lady like you doing in a place like this?

Sharon: What makes you think I’m nice?

Rey: Well, I just assumed you were. Are you saying you aren’t?

Sharon: I have my moments.

Rey: Really? Well, I’m interested in hearing all about them. In fact, I’m interested in all of you.

Sharon: Well, thank you. I’m really flattered, but, sorry, I’m off the market. I’m happily married.

Rey: Is that right?

Sharon: 100%. But I will give you this to remember me by.

Rey: I’m glad I found you. Not just because of that, because that was — mmm! — Spectacular, but I have a proposal.

Sharon: Does that mean you’re propositioning me?

Rey: Yeah, I guess I am. And my proposition is –

*************

Sharon: [ Sighs ] You have the patience of a saint.

Rey: Saint Rey. Yeah, that’s — that’s got a ring to it.

Sharon: I’ve been wanting to hear what you have to say to me. I promise I won’t let anyone or anything interrupt us.

Rey: [ Chuckles ] Thank you. That’s — that’s kind of what i wanted to talk to you about.

Sharon: What do you mean?

Rey: I would like to spend some quality time alone with my wife. I want to take you out. I want to wine and dine you. I want to stare into those beautiful eyes and tell you how wonderful you are.

Sharon: Well, that sounds really nice. What did you have in mind?

Rey: Well, I was thinking we could go to that French bistro you’ve been talking about.

Sharon: Trs magnifique!

Rey: [ Chuckles ] Then we could check out the new exhibit at the museum.

Sharon: I have wanted to do that.

Rey: I know. I listen.

Sharon: You do, don’t you? Okay, well, that sounds nice. When did you want to go on this date?

Rey: I want to go right now. Let’s go.

Sharon: Oh. Okay. Let me just wrap up a few things in the office first, and then we can leave for our…

Rey: Perfect.

Sharon: …Special quality time alone together.

Rey: And I will be right here waiting with great anticipation.

Sharon: You’re the best. You know that

Ashland: You look happy.

Victoria: That is because today is the greatest day.

Ashland: Well, you care to elaborate?

Victoria: That was Jill. She wants to hammer out the details for the sale of ChanceCom to us. So, for now, it looks like we’ve won.

Ashland: Now, are you smiling because it’s a valuable asset or because you beat your father and brother?

Victoria: A little from column “A” and a little from column “B.” But I am very glad to have Newman’s old division back into the fold of Newman/Locke.

Adam: [ Exhales sharply ] Victor and Adam must be seething.

Victoria: Maybe, maybe, but I talked to my father, and I got the feeling that he was okay with it. Adam, on the other hand, is gonna be screaming bloody murder.

Ashland: And you will love that.

Victoria: Yes, I’m here for it, especially because if I get my way, ChanceCom is not the only company that Adam’s gonna lose.

*************

Chloe: You said that you were learning something from her.

Sally: Yeah, how to swallow my pride and fake a pleasant demeanor.

Chloe: [ Sighs ] So we’re back to square one. I wanted you to develop a real working relationship with Chelsea.

Sally: Okay, relax. I’m kidding, alright? But the other side of gaining Chelsea’s trust is convincing her that I am not interested in Adam and that I am not threatened at all by her desire to get back together with him. So running out of here would be the wrong move entirely. I just need to stay put and maintain an air of calm and disinterest.

Nick: Okay, you guys got me. I was not expecting this.

Noah: Well, we wanted to do something for your birthday on your birthday, but you took off to Milan, so we decided to do it now.

Mariah: And we couldn’t let Summer be the only one to celebrate you.

Sharon: And Rey had to work tonight, but he says the next round of beers is on him.

Nick: Well, I’m touched that you all went to this trouble.

Faith: That’s what family’s for.

Nick: Thanks, kiddo. Moses, Tessa, my kids are obligated to be here, you know, but you two chose to be here, and that means a lot.

**************

Faith: Don’t stress, dad. We all came here tonight to celebrate you because we all love you and think you’re the best dad in the whole world. Not to say you can’t be overprotective at times. I feel sorry for anyone who’s ever hurt my feelings, teased me, or looked at me weird. We all remember Danny Obermeyer.

Moses: Wait, who’s he? Like, an ex-boyfriend or something?

Faith: He was a second-grader that tripped me during a soccer game. He got the “Newman death glare,” and I don’t think he’s ever been the same.

Moses: Wait, what’s the “Newman death glare”?

Nick: It’S…nothing. They’re exaggerating. It’s just a minor look of disapproval. You’ve never seen it. Don’t worry about it.

Noah: Yeah, you better hope you never do.

Mariah: I mean, maybe you should give him a taste, just in case he ever steps out of bounds.

Nick: Nah, it’s not gonna be necessary.

Tessa: I mean, I’d like to see it.

Mariah: Come on.

Tessa: It’s like you’re looking through me.

Michael: Including now.

Lauren: You were quite mysterious on the phone when you asked me to meet you here.

Michael: Ah. Well, mystery solved.

[ Clears throat ] I won in court

Lauren: You thrive on adrenaline, the kind that you get from arguing in front of a jury. Are you going to be happy with this calmer, quieter existence?

Victor: Now, wait a minute.

Michael: [ Chuckles ]

Victor: Calm and quiet and Michael Baldwin?

Michael: Victor.

Victor: Why don’t those three things go together?

Chelsea: Absolutely. Why do you ask?

C:hloe Seemed a little tense out here.

Chelsea: Well, I got the impression Sally just made another move on Adam, and he shot her down right in front of me. So go easy on the poor girl. She must be humiliated.

***********************

 

Victor: So then Ashland is on board with your sudden urge to gobble up my company?

Victoria: You know what he’s always said. He’s always said that what he likes about me the most is my ambition.

Victor: Well, that’s what i like about my daughter, as well, you know. Which doesn’t mean I’m gonna sell the damn company to you.

Victoria: [ Sighs ] Why not?

Victor: Because I want to give your brother Adam more time to prove himself as CEO. I’m not gonna yank the damn thing out from under him just because you saw through Billy’s duplicity before he did.

Victoria: Well, I won’t deny that I’m disappointed, but maybe it is for the best. Since Adam seems distracted with all of the issues in his life, it’s only a matter of time before he runs the company into the ground, at which point, i will buy it for a lot less.

Elena: Has it been? I hadn’t noticed.

Imani: Nate, that shirt is such a great color on you. It makes you look even more handsome.

Nate: Why, thank you. I never had someone pay so much attention to my shirts.

[ Both laugh ]

Elena: Hey, since you have such an eye for color, why don’t you help me resolve this issue? Which rug do you like better?

Imani: Oh, well, they’re both nice. It all depends on the decor of the rest of the room. Where’s this going to go?

Adam: It’s nothing.

Chelsea: Save it for someone who doesn’t know you like I do.

Adam: [ Sighs ] Billy came in here, shooting his mouth off like he had just won the lottery or something, when everybody knows that he is a complete and utter failure and he always will be.

Moses: My first day back, I’m gonna wear this sweater. I’ve gotten a ton of compliments on it. You really got me the best Christmas gift ever.

Faith: I did nail it, if I do say so myself.

Moses: Yeah, and, you know, I’m sorry my book gift wasn’t as cool. It’s just Elena mentioned getting a book from Nate, and it just seemed like a thing, like it was romantic.

Faith: I totally love it.

*******************

Moses: Could I be more of a dork? “Hey, Adam, you gave your kidney to my girlfriend before she was my girlfriend, but you’re still the only reason she’s around to be my girlfriend.”

Faith: That is not how you sounded.

Moses: It was lame and narcissistic, and I’m embarrassed.

Faith: Nobody thought that. It was sweet. But, yeah, the whole thing was weird. I hated Adam a lot. He’s this good guy, but then he does horrible things. Or he’s a horrible guy that does good things.

Moses: Yeah, I get it. But I’m just glad for your sake he had one of those good moments for you.

Chance: Oh, yeah? What’d I do?

Abby: Playtime with daddy went so well that Dom was tuckered. I mean, he fell asleep as soon as I put him down.

Chance: [ Chuckles ] Yeah, he had a good time or, you know, at least it seemed like he did.

Abby: Of course he did! He was spending time with his dad.

Chance: Yeah, well, there’s a lot more to being a good dad than acing tummy time.

Abby: Parenting has a steep learning curve. Look, there’s new challenges every day. I’m always wondering what’s right. Most of the time, I am just faking it. I mean, I have my own questions and fears.

Chloe: Really?

Adam: Yep. If the success of the platform means I have to put in some overtime, I’ll do it, ’cause it’s important to strike while the iron’s hot. Now’s the time to line up more ad sales and sponsors.

Chloe: Good answer. Though it’s a little hard to believe your nose was to the grindstone, given the caviar, the bottle of the vodka, and two glasses.

Adam: Chloe, I don’t need to explain myself to you, okay

***************

Victoria: You had a spectacular New Year’s Eve. Wow. Well [Clears throat] I would’ve thought that spending the holiday without Nick, you know, it would’ve been hard, given that you’ve just broken up and, I mean, it was my brother’s birthday. Guess you move on pretty quickly, don’t you.

Phyllis: I’m resilient.

Victoria: Hmm. Well, you didn’t spend the evening with Jack because I know he’s out of town. I wonder who you did spend it with. Maybe Amanda. Mm, although Devon probably wouldn’t have wanted you tagging along. Oh, Lauren and Michael. They let you be their third wheel, didn’t they?

Phyllis: When I was talking about my spectacular evening, i was referring to the hotel. We actually killed. We did very, very well. You know, I wasn’t here because I was having, you know, a fabulous dinner, but the feedback was great and it made me realize that all of my hard work has paid off. You know, our rooms are booked, the ballroom was packed. I had to hire more masseuses, and a number of women enjoy their time at the escape club.

Victoria: Oh, yes, well, I can see how some women might want to usher out a bad year and start off the new one with an escape fantasy. But I’m not one of those women because 2021 turned out pretty well for me.

Devon: Oh, you are definitely worth the wait.

Amanda: Oh, New Year’s Eve is really bringing out the sweet talker in you, huh?

Devon: Oh, you’re bringing it out of me. All you. And that’s all I want tonight to be about — just you. No legal work, no family drama, just us dancing to jazz music in the ballroom and me showing you how much I love you.

Rey: Yeah. I’d like to get down to Miami again.

Sharon: Yeah, we should do that before the spring because I’d love being in the hot weather knowing everyone back here is in the freezing cold.

Chelsea: Yeah, yeah. Connor’s really into hockey these days, so it was perfect. Very thoughtful. Thank you.

[ Chuckles ] As leery as I am about Victor having, you know, as much access to him as he wants, it’s really comforting to me knowing that you live close by.

Rey: Well, he seems to be doing well. I saw him getting in some practice on the ice with Noah the other day, and, you know, he may be new to the sport, but he’s definitely got some skills.
