Monica yells "Lock her back up! Threats like that aren't wise in a jail Ms. Landon." Julia's taken back to her cell, and Damian snaps angrily ar Monica "Why are you all doing my Mom this way when its self-defense?" Monica goes "Oh that's a lie. I remember all of it.

Tenny slaps Addie forcefully, and Beth snaps angrily "Mama! I do not know what your problem is or what this is about but stop it!" Floyd tells Tenny "I am single, and wanna mingle too." Tenny warns him "I am not going to allow it because I think it'd be what my Oldest Sister'd want!" Addie tells them "I am leaving." Tenny snaps "Good! Glad you lost, and Russell Marx!"

Country says "Ah looks like Storm needs a scare. Getting too comfortable in that cottage of mine. He'll be gone soon so we can be together Daisy." Daisy says "And with my Sister doing her part, we'll have no problems making our dreams come true and finally be where we belong, you me, and Ty, our creation."

Cole asks "What would that be Mom? You know I could work out a deal." Lana tells her Son "Only your Dad and Uncle Cole." Lana yells for drinks, as Faith and Haley look over, and Faith rolls her eyes, and goes "One of those types." Haley nods in agreement adding "Snobby bitch. I met her in Blue Ridge." At The Sunset Club, Thorpe walks in with his Son, Luke, as he says "Mom is at my house for now. I told her to give to me, but no avail. She's in trouble, and Daisy Bonner, Aunt Daisy.."

Luke tells his Father "You have your work cut out for you with them in town." Thorpe asks "Daisy? She returned?" Luke nods his head, as he is in shock. At Jazz, Daisy arrives, as she meets up with  her Sister, and says "Had an old flame to play with." Lana warns her Sister "Leave him alone. We finish up here and bank well, and disappearing act for me, and you can do the same and fix your life." Daisy warns "Lana I do not want a damn lecture from a Woman who went between Brothers." Lana reminds Daisy "That's not shit compared to your record!" At Storm and Country's Cottage meanwhile, Storm walks around, as Sully walks in and asks Storm "My Daughter just told me of what happened, where is Gracie?" Storm shrugs, and Sully walks towards Storm and asks "Did you have any sick ideas you bastard? I am warning your ass now never to be in that spot again with Ruthie or I will cut your throat."

Damian hangs up, as he looks ahead and sees Escobar, a woman hanging on his arm with a smile, Diego and Connor, who asks Escobar "Are you behind this with Wade? I got a feeling..." Escobar says "I will not answer you. I know whoever did was very smooth." The woman says "Nobody will know." Escobar finishes "If they wish to live Dr. Walsh." Connor tells Diego "This is just... I have to go home now for the night and just wrap my head around all of this." Connor leaves, as Escobar coldly warns his Nephew "My Wife and I got the family together now, and its perfect, and will be so." At Jack's Mansion, Jack walks inside and yells "Samantha!"

Diego grows nervous, as he tells him "He's behind all of this." The phone rings, as Connor says "Rashad's updating me." Connor answers and says with a calmness "I think we need some help." Diego nods, and says "What you saw at the manor, is going to hurt all the people I know, and boss." Connor asks "Who do you answer to anyway? I knew you used to watch Wade." Diego says "Xavier and Country are mine. But my family are emergencies, and Xavier will know soon. Likely text him. If he's killing off my family, there are some of his in grave danger, and more to learn." Connor and Diego finish, as Connor tells him "I'm off to my Penthouse. Keep me in the loop and looking out for me." Diego looks at his Cousin, and hugs him and says "What family is Dr. Walsh." At Jared's Loft, Jared gets off the phone with his Son, Cain, and takes a drink, and says to himself "The almighty X has already won. If he takes over, we are screwed.

Back at Paul and Summer's Home, Paul gets a text from Diego, and asks his Wife "Call your Son Jake? I just got some disturbing updates on the shit with Wade's family." Summer goes, as she prepares for bed "Tell me what I need to know, or do.." Paul says "It looks like someone's trying to kill Winston's family." Summer says with fear "Two of my Sons are Hales in blood." Summer pulls out the phone, and calls her oldest son, Jake, as it goes to voicemail." At Jazz, Jason sits at the bar, as he sees Callie, and checks her out, as she asks "New in town?" Jason goes "Back from college. Surprised to see you here again."

It happened with Davey's creation, and now with Storm." Leigh yells at her Husband "He needs to be gone! Now!" Beth reminds Leigh "I think it's a fling. Gracie and Brock got more spoiled than Sully." Leigh answers her Mother In Law "And who was doing part of it?" Xavier tells them "He will be dealt with. That's for sure. Looks like we need to have a little session." Beth tells them "Well back to the madhouse, Mama and Floyd were there and Mama slapped Addie. She let Floyd hear here objections." Leigh asks "Is Tenny in love with Floyd? She acts like it." Beth says "Oh no, Mama's just protective of her loved ones. Floyd makes her feel close to Ciarra." Xavier says "Sounds like a mess to me." Beth tells her Son, with a hug "Keep me updated. Gracie will confide in Mama or me. I can also make Mama remember things she pretends to forget." Beth leaves, as Leigh tells her Husband "Now that Beth has left, off to bed I go." Xavier stands at the stairway, and looks out of the window, and grabs his Colt 45 and walks out, up a trail.

        As afternoon descends, at Evans-Mathis, Aretha sits in her office, as Willie walks inside, as Aretha hangs up the phone with Eve, and Willie tells her Daughter angrily "What did she say? Excuses for breaking my Brother's heart?" Aretha goes "Mama, she told me what happened, and I sided also with Uncle Clem. My friend in Sugar Creek told me he also caught her with another man..." Willie warns "Aretha, you gonna give me a heart attack." Aretha asks "So what brought you down here?" Willie goes "I just heard from your Grandson. Some good news." Aretha asks "What kind of good news?" Willie grins "Its a secret." Meanwhile in Summer's office, Summer and Bree have a meal in her office, as Bree cries "Wade and I had something special Summer. He was my true love. He really was." Summer tells her Sister "Aunt Ava warned you about Bridget..." Bree goes "I remember when he had that fall and went into that coma and Bridget and Logan.." Summer sighs "I see why nobody liked her, and then..." Bree goes "Yep. Moved him out of town before anyone could really found out what happened. I think she was behind it." Summer changes subjects, and asks "Did you want to have a child with Wade?" Bree nods. Summer tells her Sister "You wanted a child forever and you are such a great Aunt to my boys. Why not use a surrogate and have that child?" Bree is silent, and says "Hmm." At City Hospital, Connor storms into Rashad's office, as Ginny and Kyle stand around his desk, as he holds the wine bottle and blunty goes "I need this tested in the lab. Preferably Beth!" Ginny goes "Aunt Beth is gone for the day." Kyle asks "So sissy boy, you don't trust us?" Rashad snaps "Dr. Webb do I need to remind you again about that behavior?" Connor glares at Kyle, as Ginny tells Connor "I'll go run a test on it" Connor says "I think someone is out to kill me. I cannot help but think so after Wade drank that liquor and then went in a coma." Ginny takes the bottle and walks out, as Kyle and Rashad asks Connor "Any word about Wade?" Connor answers "I check on my Mom, but he can go to hell. He never accepted me and my sexuality anyway. I always knew he was not my Dad. He reminded me enough." Rashad gets a page, and walks out, and Kyle tells Connor "Maybe you should grow a pair.", and also walks out, as Connor's eyes turn red, and walks out.

      At Hell Hill, Leigh and Xavier sits in the study together, as they hear the door open and Xavier walks out as its Gracie and asks his Daughter "No show again? I'm getting sick of you and this Storm of a fling with Storm Smallwood!" Leigh walks out, and adds "I am not staying home playing Grandma, so you need to find a nanny if you wanna run around with that deadbeat." Gracie tells her parents "And I am grown too! I can do whatever in the hell I want! Logan wasn't a Father, he was a sperm donor. I am mad you let Wade meet my Son before he went into the coma!" Xavier sternly tells her "Gracie, Wade was my friend, and Davey is his Grandson. It was right to do. Now his Wife.." Leigh snarls "She is not allowed in this house, and I think a bullet is waiting for her ass if she shows up again." Xavier tells his Wife "We're discussing our Daughter right now, and let Ava have the honors, or Bree." Gracie heads upstairs, and goes "I'm home now Mom and Dad, so the two of you don't have to babysit. I can find one." Leigh asks "Who? Your Gram still has a busy life, and Tenny is almost 100." Gracie snaps "Don't worry. I will be gone, and soon." Gracie heads upstairs angrily, as Leigh tells her Husband, holding a pill bottle "See this full bottle." Xavier rolls his eyes, and sighs "Shit. We need to watch her closely." Upstairs, Gracie walks into the nursery, and sends a text, as she says to herself "The two of you aren't ready at all but you will be." At Country and Storm's cottage, Storm returns, as a man walks inside with him, as he goes "I wonder if I could go check up on her." Storm warns him "I don't think that's wise. When they learn about me and Gracie, I might be back in Unity Prison, or worse." Damian Woods, Leigh's Brother tells him "I am here on a mission. So are you in? I have to go meet someone now, and I want an answer soon." Damian walks out, as Storm is silent and says to himself "Damnit!"

     At Landon-Hale, Thorpe sits at the head of the table in the meeting room, as Clint walks inside, along with Callie, Cole, and Jared." Thorpe tells them "I have an announcement." Clint asks his Brother "Where's Luke?" Thorpe goes "Nevermind that. Dollar Time is up for grabs, and we need to take it before our rivals across the street do." Cole laughs "With that bunch, they are too worried about keeping it all together since Callie's boyfriend left town, and..." Jared goes "Enough about my kids family, now back to Dollar Time." Clint tells them "Tomorrow the owner will come to town and make us an offer." Thorpe goes "She should since she's the Mother of our kids" Clint sighs "Not again with that shit Thorpe. Lana and I had our children, and you know why she left you." Thorpe is silent, as he tells everyone "Lana will sell. She is broke, and her Sister... well we know what she is. And likely the reason the company's going under. Dollar Stores could hurt Jim's, Foodstar, Emery's." Callie asks "And what about Class, and even our own acquisition of Gore's. Addie is still pissed we got it." Thorpe tells his Niece "Addie Gore is besties with that deranged family. They endorsed her, and they learned their power is waning when she lost to the outsider." Across the road, Javon is alone, as he gets a text from his Mother, and says "I told you already to drop it!" A woman walks inside, and says "Lana Landon." Javon welcomes her, as she tells him "Before I go across the road, let's talk about my store." Javon nods, as they start to talk.

      At Jazz, Allan and Faith are inside his office, as Ava walks inside, and tells Allan and Faith "I had a visitor." Faith smiles, and she and her Daughter embrace in a hug, as Faith tells her biological parents "This is Haley Bonner. She's my only girl. Her Dad was a piece of shit." Allan hugs his Granddaughter, as she says "This is nice Mom! I came because I missed you." Faith goes "Just wait until I tell Tenny. She and I have not discussed you.." Allan warns his Daughter "And Mama will go mad!"  Ava is quiet, and watches with a smile. At The Falcon, Floyd and Frank sit at a table, as Floyd tells his Nephew "I think I'm ready to date again Frank." Frank tells his Uncle "At your age?" Floyd laughs "Son, age is a number. And I got my eyes on Addie Gore." Frank tells him "She used to be married to Jesse Adams, and he was a real bastard. She never has dated again since or married." Floyd says with a grin "I can change that." Tenny arrives, and sees them as she has overheard and gasps "Floyd Jackson, is this dog in heat putting things in your liquor? Cheating on my Sister." Frank sighs "Oh if it isn't the old bitch herself. Ciarra would want Uncle Floyd to be happy." Tenny tells them "Well I speak for my family, and forbid it." Brock arrives, as Tenny tells them "My Grandson is here. We need to have a little chat. And remember Floyd, do not cheat on my Sister!" Tenny walks over to where Brock sits, as Frank tells his Uncle "Is she losing it?" Floyd goes "She misses Ciarra, and she has her ways of thinking." Frank goes "I think she's smoked too much pot." Tenny sits next to her Great-Grandson, and asks "So how's things with Rachel Lane?" Brock goes "Gran, I really don't know. Henry's reaction and all messed with her." Tenny asks "Have you considered another woman?" Brock asks his Great-Grandmother "Do you know something?" Tenny sighs "Well maybe. I do live next door to the bastard child umm.." Brock answers "Connor Walsh." Tenny nods, and adds "I heard some things through my wall. They are thin." Brock tells her "I don't know how to react, and with Gracie's news.." Tenny goes "What news?" Brock checks his phone, and says "I need to go see Rachel." Tenny is quiet, as Brock rushes out, as Tenny gets up, and glares at Frank and Floyd, as she says to herself "Looks like another secret my kids are keeping from me."

      Back at Hell Hill, Xavier sits in his study, as he and Leigh hears the front door close, and the walk out. They head upstairs, where Gracie and Davey have both left. Leigh asks "She left with Davey. I thought she was going to be the smart one. Since Brock and Rachel are together, he was the surprise to me." Xavier reminds his Wife "But Gracie has bipolar, and after learning of her time in Valley Ridge, and that loser Logan Walsh, who plotted to steal HaleCorp from Ava, and the deal with Gracie.." Leigh adds "I think I know who it is." Xavier asks "I think it was a local from up there. Valley Ridge is a college town love. And Logan and this boy messed with her head after talking her off her meds." Leigh points over to a counter, and says "Come over here." They open a drawer under the counter, as they look through their Daughter's medicine, and Leigh goes "Wow! This expains it to me. Storm is hurting her and she's going to lose or already lost her damn mind!" Xavier makes a phone call, and puts it on speaker. At Beth and Tenny's Penthouse, Addie drinks some champagne, as Beth sits in a chair in the living room, as Addie points to her and says "Zap! Beth? Am I seeing.." Beth goes "All I smoke Addie. And also it helps me now with arthritis, and nerves. I hate giving medicine though sometimes I think it works. Addie sighs "I drank some on was that way when on the campaign trail. And Russell and I got distracted to it costing us both the election." Beth's phone rings, as she goes "Xavier.", and answers as she asks "Yes baby?" Xavier asks his Mother "Gracie's benzos are very low, and we know she drinks." Beth asks her Son "Well that's bad news. She has kept that from me. Think Storm's behind it?" Xavier tells his Mother on the phone "Possibly Mother." Beth says to him "Addie's here, and I'll be over later once your Grandma gets home." Beth hangs up, as at Hell Hill, Leigh gets nervous, and anger builds, as she yells "Storm is a bastard. And it's partly your fault X!" Xavier sighs "Leigh, I thought he was good, and I learned him after that thing with Samantha Hale when she went crazy after that shot she got." Leigh warns her Husband "You and I will deal with this! But you made a bad mistake bringing him to work here, and helping his release from Prison!" Xavier walks out, as Leigh is silent, and silently cries for her Daughter, and from concern for her family.

      At Chantel's, Aretha sits as she and her Mother have "dinner", as Willie says to her Daughter with a smile "I love this. We are keeping our family together and staying close to your Brother. His favorite place, I mean ours when we all used to do this. Next time invite Rashad and Gwen. Saves me the trouble of cooking our get togethers." Aretha laughs "Yes Mama, our family tradition." Willie tells Aretha "I'll share now, LaShawn is coming to visit us tonight. He's racing at the dirt track in the Summer Festival. It's for old drivers in racing, and Frank's in it too!" Aretha smiles "Oh that's music to my ears. Baby Boy I bet is going to love this. Does he know?" Willie goes "Nope. You know me and him are tight. He calls me all the time always time for his Great-Grandmother." Aretha slyly says "I know he and I don't talk often, he's a good young man. Rashad raised him well." Willie sighs "And if Terrance could of had that with Javon before Monica gave him the damn chance. He's gone because of that!" Aretha warns "Mama, there's gonna be no talk about that.! At City Hospital, Rashad is in his office, as he prepares to leave, and Gwen asks "What's going on tonight?" Rashad kisses her, and says "Door locked?" Gwen walks over, and goes "Now it is." Rashad begins to take off his closes, looking at Gwen, and the two of them passionately lay on his desk, as Gwen takes off her clothes, and jumps onto him, arms and legs wrapped around his body. At City Hospital, Ginny prepares to leave, as Connor asks her "So did they come in yet? Logan and I spoke, and he's still in a coma by the way, and no tests done." Ginny says "It will be late tonight-tomorrow, and I wrote a message to Aunt Beth as she can be a night-owl sometimes." Connor thanks her, and asks "Think you and Ruthie like to have dinner somewhere?" Ginny smiles, and says to her friend "I think that can be arranged. I'll call Ruthie." Connor says "Cantina Mansion". Ginny calls Ruthie, to no answer and leaves a text, smiling  "She and her Mom love that place!" Connor laughs "It is awesome." At Storm and Country's Cottage, Ruthie lays on the bed, as the door opens, and Storm goes "Oh wow!" Ruthie gasps, as Storm asks "Are you staying to watch the show?" Ruthie asks her new Uncle "What show?" Storm says "Anyone you want it to be," Ruthie puts back on her dress, and says "I just got an invite, so I'm off now. I'm sober enough after those drinks." Storm nods, and they laugh, as Ruthie dresses, and Storm puts on another pair of clothes, and says "Gracie had a fight with her parents. I'm off to The Sunset Club to see her and Davey." Ruthie sighs "Yeah, I meant to tell you." Storm says "Ahh shit, I understand. It was fast." Ruthie is quiet, as she looks at him, and leaves, and Storm follows, to The Sunset Club, and Ruthie drives to meet Ginny and Connor, and has her Aunt's Uncle on hers.

Diego Santiago is working for Xavier. Xavier confirmed it, and said Country should be back tomorrow." Monica tells him "Ok Paul. Go have a fun night with your Wife, and congrats about your Son making it a General in the army." Paul says "I sure will, and Dad should return soon. He's off on his cruise I forced on him." Monica laughs, as Paul leaves, and Monica sits and makes a phone call. At Chantel's Willie's phone rings, and Willie answers and in a hateful tone says "Go to hell you evil bitch! How dare you." Aretha gasps, as does Monica gasps "Willie I was just..." Willie snarls hatefully and angrily "You kept Javon from me. I never forgive that, nor forget." Monica says on the other line "Willie, Terrance and I broke up." Willie yells "Screw you Monica! Go back to hell and stay away from me or I'll fix your ass up very well and avenge my Son!" Willie hangs up, as Aretha grows worried, and says to a waiter "To go please." Willie gets up and goes Monica was the reason your Brother died, and can't you talk me out of it." Aretha takes a deep breath, and tells her gently "Go home and forget it Mama. You know what I mean," Willie says "I do, and I'll see the surprise."

She might need me since you know, Winston passing away, Wade having that issue, a lot of shit." Summer says to her Sister "I understand Ava more now I work for her company she is silent in name at least. Summer laughs for a moment, and says "Send our love." Bree nods, as Jason says "Good to see you looking after Mom Aunt Bree. Thank you." Bree says "It's hard, but somebody's got to." Bree walks out, as Jason tells his Mother "I got an offer already, but it's Landon-Hale. But, Uncle Frank offered me a deal driving a car for him." Summer warns her Son "I told you to not race stock cars, and Cale runs that now from Southpoint Beach, and Allison and him divorced." Jason reminds her "Mom, I am doing what I want, and Ruthie filled me in. And if I see Jared Hale, I'm confronting his punk ass." Summer is silent, as she shakes her head with a smile, as she is proud, as he tells her "Mom, you made me tough. Thank you. But also wise." Summer says "At least I did a few things right I guess."

Do you understand me you son of a bitch? You are a traitor, and now beating my damn Daughter! No. Now get the hell out of her tonight.' Floyd aims his rifle, and adds "I might be up in years Ty, but this will take good care of you." Ty yells "Ok screw it. Logan always gave me a free room anyway at one of your unfortunate sponsors."

Kyle laughs "I didn't see it, but looking around some freak shit to me." Gwen says "Oh be an adult." as she says "It was sure good though." Kyle tells Rashad "I have the results." Rashad, as Gwen and Kyle walk over to him, sitting at his desk, and opening the envelope, reads the results of the wine bottle, as Rashad looks at Gwen and Kyle, and says to Gwen, with results in hand "I have to tell him personally. See you at home Gwen." Gwen takes a deep breath, and shows disappointment before gaining her composure, as Kyle tells her "Yeah, I get it now why Bridget and Logan left town, but is there more to this?" Gwen answers "I'm just a nurse engaged to Rashad Evans. At Santiago Manor, a woman walks into a study, as a man tells her "This one is for another one. They all shall pay."

     

      

       

Daylight And Darkness: Episode 346. Turning The Page

   It's been a while since we last visited Adam's Landing and things were heating up. Secrets were all over the place. Love was in the air and a new family arrived in town. Since we last checked in, things have changed throughout Adam's Landing, causing hurt, sadness, and doubt. Many characters have left town. Rachel's secret was revealed, which did not go over well. Things took a turn for the worse for Wade, and of course Xavier's life was hanging in the balance as he was shot multiple times in the Storm Shelter. Lives has changed, and its back to the basics now in Adam's Landing. There has been Darkness, but yet always Daylight. We pick up Daylight And Darkness now, seven months later....

    

       At Hell Hill, Leigh sits in the living room, as Gracie walks downstairs and tells her Mother "I'm going out awhile." Leigh asks "To work? Or off to the cottage?" Gracie asks her "Mom, Davey needs a Father figure, and Storm is excellent. I do not understand the hangup you and Dad has over him." Leigh tells her Daughter "Gracie, I do not trust Storm, and neither does your Father. You are going to be hurt again like you were in Sugar Creek." Gracie heads to the door, and goes "Well when Dad returns home, I cannot wait to hear his point of view." Gracie leaves, as Leigh sighs "And suddenly I become the babysitter.." Xavier sits in a seat on his private jet, as he has taken a break after what occured in the Storm Shelter, and reads texts, as he is silent and rolls his eyes. Ava meanwhile sits next to her Brother, and says "Thank you for going down to the island with me. I think Winston's memorial was well done." Xavier tells his Sister "I tried to let Wade know, but he's still in a coma." Ava snarls "I will kill Bridget if she ever returns to town, or in my sight!" Xavier meanwhile asks "So what's next?" Ava takes a drink, and says "HaleCorp is now part of Jackson Inc. Winston would have wanted it that way. I never liked Logan, and then the shit...." Xavier sighs "He's Davey's Father, but Logan is not fit to be a Father. Wade and I discussed it before the.." The pilot goes "We're about to land now." Ava holds Xavier's hand, and says "At least I have my Daughter, and Son waiting for me back home." Xavier assures her "Sis, Winston is at peace now. And so are you. I see it." Ava gets emotional briefly before saying "He did not know who anyone was. I have mourned long enough."

     At City Hospital, Beth walks into her office, and is greeted by Rashad, and Ginny, as she tells them "I think it's a wonderful idea to name the new mental health wing after Terrance." Ginny tells her Grand-Aunt "I agree. It's nice to see Willie here again too." Rashad tells them "Grandma feels closer to him being here. I find her often in my office." Beth smiles, as she asks them "Ready to meet the new Chief of Staff? Or do the two of you want to split duties?" Rashad looks at Ginny, and Ginny goes "Aunt Beth, we got it handled. We have you here now often. Likely to get away from Gran." Beth laughs, and goes "It is nice to be in the working world again, and yes, I enjoy my time away from Mama. I do worry what she's plotting." At Beth and Tenny's Penthouse, Tenny smokes a blunt, as she hangs up the phone, and answers the door. Faith stands on the other side, as Tenny hugs her Granddaughter, and asks "How are you doing my sweet Faith?" Faith smiles, and quips "It's been nice bonding with Allan..." Tenny goes "He's your Daddy now. And Ava is your Mom. And Gran bought out River Mathis' part in Jazz, and.." Faith asks her Grandmother "How many times are you going to remind me?" Tenny asks "Wanna hit this blunt with your Gran?" Faith sits, and says "You know I am straight laced." Tenny goes "But you own a nightclub..." Faith gets a phone call, and answers as she tells Tenny "Well I'm off to Jazz. I'll be by later." Tenny goes "Don't come unannounced." Faith shakes her head with a smile, as she leaves, and Tenny sits back and says to herself "I think besides Sully, and Ruthie... she is another favorite Granddaughter. But Allison, she can go to hell." 

    At Class, Sully walks into Ruthie's office, as Ruthie smokes a blunt, and sighs "I feel so bad Mom. I did not know about what Gram, Olivia, Aunt Ava, and his Grandmother did to Rachel.. He took it out on everyone." Sully sits and says "It was quite a shock. But you have to move on. Where's my Mother?" Marco walks inside and goes "She's babysitting." Sully rolls her eyes, and goes "My Mother babysitting Davey. She said she wasn't going that route, but..." Ruthie quips "Well anything can happen I guess. Gracie and Storm invited me out." Sully tells her Daughter "Marco has everything under control, and I'll hang around and check the sales reports. The Landon bunch got Gore's, but they have not done too well in my opinion." Marco reminds them "We could buy the stock." Sully is quiet, as Ruthie hugs her Mother, and walks out. At Landon-Hale, Jared sits in his office, as Callie walks inside and tells him "Connor is here." Jared goes "I do not feel like talking to him. Same shit as always. And I don't give a damn about his Mom, or my Brother!" Connor walks inside, as he snaps "What?" Jared gets up, and yells at his Son "Ruthie and Cain are the only two kids I love! Bridget took you and let Wade be your Dad. Why did you even stay here? Spying?" Connor gains his composure, and says "I have a good job, and I got Mom's penthouse. I want to have a relationship with you." Jared coldly says "Get out of my office, and stay away from me Connor. Go back home." Connor smiles, and says "Well Daddy, I'm staying and look, a text. I have to see a patient." Connor walks out, as Callie walks back in, and says "I'm still reeling myself." Jared sighs "Well it's over now for damn sure. I just wish he'd leave me alone." Callie tells him "Jared, Dr. Walsh is a good person. You should try to grow close to him." Jared is silent, as Callie walks out and Jared has a flashback and is silent.

     At Evans-Mathis, Aretha sits in her office, as Addie Gore walks inside and goes "Hello Aretha. I have some news." Aretha asks "Did Eve sell you her share in the company?" Addie nods, and quips "She did. But don't worry because this is yours." Aretha asks Addie "So that outsider beat you, and Marx in the election.." Addie tells her "And we are about to make some real money too off of it when I write this book." Aretha goes "Deal. So is this now Evans-Gore?" Addie shrugs "If you'd like?" Aretha tells her "I like you Addie. And sounds just fine to me. You do know a lot of people in town." Addie sits at Aretha's desk, and begins to talk, as she says "Beth and I are very close, and I do have a big heart. I've grown to like this place. More exciting than back home in Unity. My Grandson's coming up soon, but I don't know what his plans are." Aretha asks "What about your Son Evan?" Addie goes "He's mayor of Unity now. But I must be going. Rachel wants to talk to me. Maybe she's writing another book." Aretha rolls her eyes, as Addie walks out, and Aretha goes "This should be interesting." At The Sunset Club, Rachel sits at the bar, and has a drink, as Brock walks in and asks his fiancée "Why are you so distant?" Rachel looks at Brock, and says "Every time I see you I think of Henry." Her voice trembles, as she says "I so wanted to get to know him and then..." Brock sighs "I know.." Rachel looks at her ring, and Brock asks "Are you thinking of breaking up with me? I love you baby. You are my world." Rachel looks at Brock, and says "You are my everything." Brock and Rachel kiss, as he whispers "Javon's at the office and Jack's returned.." Rachel tells Brock "Another time. Connor's on his way." Brock goes "Perfect timing to return to the office. I hate that family." Rachel reminds her fiancé "He might have an update on Wade. And he's my therapist." Brock warns "Don't mention that to my family." Rachel asks "Why?" Brock goes "He is Bridget's Son." Rachel shakes her head, as Brock leaves, and Rachel drinks her liquor, and yells "One more!"

      Meanwhile at Jackson Inc, Bree, Jack, and Javon are inside Bree's office, as Bree tells them "I'm over it now. Aunt Ava has really been there for me. I always get hurt in relationships. Wade was a good man, but Bridget was the love of his life." Jack goes "And then she moved him out of City Hospital, and she, he, and Logan disappeared." Javon asks "Isn't Logan the Father..." Bree answers "Yes. But wanted no part of parenthood. Sully told me about it, and Gracie.. well she does not talk about it either but Wade told me he was a Grandpa and met Davey." In Xavier's old office, Xavier and Ava walks inside, as they have returned, and Ava tells her Brother "I hope you are slowing down after that scare with Daniel Woods." Xavier reminds her 'Sis, I protect my family. And I did take a break and traveled. What about you?" Ava sighs "Well I'm slowing down in my old..." Jack walks inside, hearing his Mother and Uncle, along with Bree as they all embrace in a hug, and Bree asks "How was the service?" Ava tells them "Winston got what he wanted. I have a few more ashes I'll bury when I go home. I'm going to spend some time with what is important to me, my Son, my Daughter, and my family." Xavier meanwhile asks "Where is the CEO?" Jack tells his Uncle "Sully's at Class spending some time with Ruthie." Xavier sighs "I hate to see my Queenie so sad. I really thought her and Henry were it." Bree meanwhile gets a phone call, and tells everyone "Summer. I'm going to see her and check in." Bree leaves, as Xavier tells his Sister and Nephew "So what is really going on?" Ava tells them "I think something is going on, and I don't like what I'm thinking." Jack tells them "Could a Santiago be involved?" Xavier goes "Jack, Wade killed Angelica. I know whoever it was, was gunning for him." Ava tells her Son and Brother "I'm going back home now." Jack asks "Mom, want me.." Ava hugs Jack, and tells her Son "I want to be alone for today and honor your Dad. Love you." Ava tells Xavier "I'm glad you went with me." Xavier tells them "Winston was a good man, and I know he'll be missed, but like we said, we already lost him when his memory left." Ava nods, and walks out. Meantime, Javon is in his office, and hangs up the phone and says to himself "Our chance is now."

     Back at Hell Hill, Leigh sits in the nursery, as she plays with her Grandson and she gets a text from Xavier, as he texts "I'm on my way home my love. Get ready." Leigh smiles, as she tells Davey "Papaw is on his way home. The one that spoils you. Well I guess I'm guilty too of that.". At Country and Storm's Cottage, Gracie and Storm lay in bed together, as they share a bottle of moonshine, and smoke a blunt as Ruthie walks in, and Storm quips "Country isn't here to spy. I turned off the cameras." Ruthie asks "Where has he been?" Gracie tells her Niece "Oh he's got a girlfriend so I hear." Storm goes "Hell yeah. They are staying at The Inn." Gracie changes subjects, and asks them "Why is it not ok for me to be with you? Mom and Dad seem to be hellbent against it." Storm sighs, passing the blunt to Ruthie "Xavier paid to get me out of prison and thinks he controls me. But I beat to my own damn drum." Gracie and Ruthie laughs, as Ruthie adds "So does Grandpa. Since he retired, and let Mom run things, he stays busy." Storm gets a text, and says as he gets up "Pardon me ladies." Gracie asks Ruthie "So I'm telling you a secret and better keep it.." Ruthie nods, as Gracie tells her Niece "We have told nobody, but we snuck down to Unity last night, and Storm and I got married." Ruthie's jaw drops, as she asks "Are you ready for the fallout?" Gracie rolls another blunt and says "Oh shit, I'm not worried. They'll have to live with it." Ruthie asks "What about Gram and Gran?" Gracie goes "Hmm.. That one I'm nervous about." Outside Storm is on the phone and says "Meet you at The Falcon." Storm walks inside and tells his Wife and Ruthie "I have something to do. Be back later. Feel free to drink up and smoke." Storm rushes out, as Gracie and Ruthie watch, and Gracie goes "That's becoming the norm." 

      At Coffeeteria, Sully bumps into Jack, as they hug, and Sully ask her Cousin "How's things down at the office? Daddy text me and told me he and your Mom were home." Jack sits down, and tells her "Mom is actually handling it well. I am surprised really. With all the shit with Wade, I would had thought she would have a breakdown." Sully goes "Well I think Aunt Ava was ready. When Ruthie and Cain went down there, he did not know them. Thought they were his kids." Jack sighs "He was my Dad. Angelica tortured him and made life hell for Mom and me, but he was a great man." Sully quips "Jared didn't inherit any of his wisdom and knowledge." Jared shows up and tells his Ex-Wife "I disowned my Grandfather and that side long ago. I wish Connor would stop trying to come and cry for me to be his Daddy!" Sully goes "You are his Dad! And you have another child with Summer. Do you know his name?" Jack sits back, as Jared tells Sully "Right now I am focused on one thing, destroying that company across the street from Landon-Hale. You'll have to get a job here with what I have in mind!" Jack warns "You don't have the brains to do that. And you have Clint and Thorpe to answer to." Jared tells them "They want the same thing as I do!" Cole meanwhile walks over, as Sully and Jack tells them "We're going back to our office and prepare to kick your ass!" Cole goes "We got Gore's!" Jack laughs "Oh shit, Emery's will wipe the floor with you. I've been in the flagship, looked like shit. At least Addie Gore's family ran it right." Sully and Jack leaves, as Cole tells Jared "Look at this file." Jared opens it, and his eyes widen and goes "Ava gave HaleCorp to Xavier?" Cole nods, and adds "Look what Wade got for them before he was knocked cold." Jared snarls "Son of a bitch." Cole tells him "Dad and Uncle Thorpe has called a meeting this evening at Dad's place," Cole walks out, as Jared shakes his head in disgust.  

     At Jazz, Addie sits at the bar, as Faith walks over and goes "Mrs. Gore.." Addie goes "No honey, call me Addie." Faith tells her "I've worked in this field a long time, habit and respect I guess. Your guest is over at their table in the back." Addie walks over, as Beth sits and they greet with a hug, and Beth asks her best friend "How's Adam's Landing treating ya? Addie laughs "This is a big place now. I stopped by to see you, but your Mother would not answer the door." Beth asks "Look at the time on your phone, Mama still will not allow visitors, or talk when those soaps are on. Meantime enough about her. How did your meeting go with Aretha?" Addie tells her "I like her, and she gave me an idea on a book. I need something to do with myself after losing the election and all." Beth tells her "You wrote a beautiful book about your Mama and Daddy's marriage." Addie asks "Do you think your Mother would write her life story?" Beth's eyes widen, and she says "That is not a bad idea at all! Mama's almost 100 years old and has a story. Willie Evans is another good one if you want to write something to tug people's hearts." Addie asks Beth, as Faith walks over, and says "Beth, I don't know about Gran." Beth tells her Niece "If you bribe her right, you could be surprised." At Beth and Tenny's Penthouse, Tenny sits in the living room, turning towards what was formerly Wade and Bridget's Penthouse, as she turns down the TV, and snarls "Connor Walsh... interrupting my smoke time, and soap time!" Tenny walks out, and rings his doorbell, to find the door open and walks inside. Inside now Connor's Penthouse, Rachel lays on the couch, as she tells Connor "I honestly don't think I can have a relationship now with him." Connor asks "Because you have a traumatic memory." Rachel nods, and says "It'd be best to break up with Brock.." Tenny yells "Are you going to be a whore again?" Connor turns and snaps "Do you know not to blare into someone's place?" Tenny smiles "Rachel's yelling I could hear. And did I hear this right... I listen to these sessions." Connor goes "How?" Tenny smiles "I don't know." She turns towards Rachel, and warns "Hurt that kid, and you'll answer to me. I did kill Lily, but Beth would like to.." Rachel cries "Can you stay silent?" Connor adds "This is a private session old lady so leave." Tenny walks to the door, and tells Connor and Rachel "I don't like the two of you. A boy created by a homewrecker, and the cougar." Tenny leaves, as Rachel has a panic attack and Connor begins to help her calm down saying "Deep breaths. She has a habit of this." Outside, Tenny sees a bottle, and reads the letter "See you sexy man. Chantel's." Tenny says "I'd rather smoke myself." Tenny returns to her Penthouse, and thinks of what she has heard, and makes a phone call.

      At Jackson Inc, Javon's in his office, as his Mother arrives, and Javon rolls his eyes, and warns "I got things to handle. Looks like Landon has something up his sleeve. Monica sighs "I'm not forcing you. I just think you need to get to know your family here." Javon bluntly says "Terrance never was a Dad to me, and you never told me until he died. And Ms. Willie hates you." Monica changes subjects, and tells him "Son, I got a guest about to show up in town." Javon asks "Trial time for Julia Woods?" In Jack's office, he hangs up the phone with J.J. as he grabs his keys to head to his Mansion. Downstairs, Brock sits in his office he shares with Rachel, as he calls his Sister, and Gracie answers, as she lays on Storm's bed, and she tells her twin Brother "I told Ruthie." Brock warns her "Sissy, you know soon you're going to have to tell Mom and Dad." Gracie slurs "And they can deal with it. I am a Smallwood now." At Connor's Penthouse, Rachel and Connor walks out, as Connor gasps, and goes "Dad got a free bottle of wine from Chantel's. And then he went in a coma." Rachel is silent also, and tells him "Take it to the Hospital and have Beth test it." Connor stares at it, and makes a phone call, as Rachel leaves. At Hell Hill, Xavier walks into the nursery, as Leigh looks at her Husband, as she rocks Davey to sleep, and tells her Husband "Shh, he's asleep." Xavier walks over and kisses his Wife, and Grandson, and whispers "And where's Gracie?" Leigh sighs "Where else?" Xavier is silent, and goes "I'm off to the study." Xavier walks out, as Leigh has a thought. Xavier sends Country a text, and says to himself "Treading on thin ice Storm." At Whispering Hills, Ava is outside, as she sits in the living room, and looks at the box containing Winston's ashes, and cries privately, as there's a knock at the door. Ava answers to find a girl, and asks "Where's my Mom?" Ava asks "Are you lost?" The girl says "Faith Woods is my Mom. I'm her Daughter." Ava asks "And did she.." The girl says "She did." Ava opens her arms and says "Call me Grandma." They embrace in a hug. At The Inn, Storm meets a man, as he asks Storm "So do you want to join up with me and be my right hand? My bosses will do you right." Storm goes "I can't, but wish you had of killed Logan too." The man smiles "They all left before I got the chance." Storm whispers "Not all of them." The man nods, and says "That's being arranged.", as they both order a beer.
