00:00Five, four, three, two.
00:08Coming up, I'll be interviewing quote-unquote canceled pop star Blaze and her girlfriend
00:14Christina Corinthos Davis, speaking out for the first time since Blaze's mother's controversial
00:21remarks on an equally controversial secret recording.
00:26Cut.
00:27Okay.
00:28Okay.
00:29How are you guys feeling?
00:30Nervous.
00:31AKA terrified.
00:32Well, that's good.
00:33It is?
00:34Yes.
00:35It keeps the energy up.
00:36Look, nerves and excitement are just two sides of the same coin.
00:38Trust me.
00:39This is going to be great.
00:40It is?
00:41It's going to be great.
00:42Yes.
00:43And I will be right here, silent on the sidelines, supporting you.
00:45Okay?
00:46Just remember, keep it positive.
00:47Positive.
00:48Yes.
00:49No apologizing.
00:50No shame.
00:51Look, I've got this.
00:52My palms are sweating.
00:53It's okay to be nervous.
00:54Yeah, but why?
00:55I mean, God, I've performed in front of thousands of people before.
00:57This should be nothing.
00:58Well, opening a vein as a performer on stage is very different than opening a vein as yourself.
01:04But look, this is a great opportunity to show who you really are.
01:08World, meet the true, authentic Blaze.
01:11Yeah.
01:12You know, sharing isn't usually my strongest suit, but I guess I can make an exception.
01:19Absolutely no florals.
01:21Understand?
01:22Okay.
01:23And as usual, send me the mock-ups when you're done.
01:26Thank you, Simone.
01:27Sorry I'm late.
01:28Hey.
01:29Oh, no.
01:30No worries.
01:31I changed my outfit after a lunch incident with Amelia.
01:32Uh-oh.
01:33Flying applesauce?
01:34Ketchup.
01:35Oh.
01:36Thank God for stain sticks.
01:37Anyway, sorry again.
01:38No, no.
01:39It's fine.
01:40And thank you for meeting me.
01:41No, thank you for meeting me.
01:42Madison is setting up my office for a photo shoot.
01:46So when someone says PSA emergency, I hop to it, okay?
01:51So what's up?
01:52I am about to record another announcement.
01:54And since you helped me so much with my last one...
01:57Oh, let me guess.
01:58The copy is a little funky.
02:01More than a little.
02:02Nothing rolls off the tongue.
02:03It all feels stilted and awkward.
02:05So I revised it myself, and since you're the most media-savvy person I know, I thought
02:08maybe you could take a look at it and tell me what you think.
02:13Do you know how absurd you sound?
02:15Pestering my superiors, threatening to bury me?
02:19You are so far out of your league, Police Commissioner Devane.
02:21Oh, at least you got that right.
02:23I am Police Commissioner of Fort Charles.
02:26And you are operating within my jurisdiction.
02:29And to that end, I tried to establish a relationship with you, you know, professional to professional.
02:34But I couldn't, because you have so much contempt for, well, pretty much everything.
02:38Made it impossible.
02:43What exactly do I have contempt for?
02:44Oh, I don't know.
02:45Me.
02:46Procedure.
02:47Ethical conduct of a representative of the U.S. government.
02:51You know, I can go on.
02:52Wow, I sound like a pretty crappy FBI agent.
02:55There is absolutely no reason for you to continue to coerce Jason.
02:59He fulfilled his end of the agreement.
03:02Did he, though?
03:03Yes.
03:04Thanks to him, you have evidence proving that Pikeman conducted illegal arms sales.
03:10That is more than enough evidence for the FBI to freeze the company's assets and shut
03:15them down.
03:16This ends now, Agent Cates.
03:18Now.
03:19You seem awfully familiar with the evidence Morgan turned in.
03:24Why is that?
03:27You told me you did everything that Cates wanted.
03:28I did.
03:29You told me you were free.
03:30I thought I was.
03:31Then what happened?
03:32I followed the directives to the T, but it wasn't enough.
03:36Don't you get it?
03:37That if everything you've done up to this point isn't enough, nothing ever will be?
03:42The only way to take away Cates' power over you is me.
03:45No.
03:46Jason, I'm turning myself in.
03:47Let me finish.
04:12Alright, I spoke to Perez.
04:14He's super knowledgeable and professional.
04:16He's kind.
04:17But no nonsense, he's not going to make himself look good at your expense, okay?
04:22That is very encouraging to hear, thank you.
04:24Yes.
04:25Oh, guys, give me a sec, I just want to talk to that producer.
04:28Oh, okay.
04:29Tell me you have butterflies too.
04:30Uh, well, I've been carrying around a little sumo wrestler for quite some time now, so
04:34it's a little hard to tell.
04:35But yeah, I am just as nervous as you are.
04:38But it's okay.
04:39It's just like Brooklyn said, you know, this is an opportunity.
04:42It's an opportunity for you to show the world who you really are, and I guarantee you they
04:46are going to fall in love with you just as much as I have.
04:49Thank you.
04:50That's sweet of you to say, and definitely helps with the nerves, I just...
04:52What?
04:53What if I say the wrong thing?
04:54There is no wrong thing.
04:55There's just us being us, and I might be biased, but I think we're pretty damn great.
04:59Yeah.
05:00Hi.
05:01Hi.
05:02Blaze?
05:03Yeah.
05:04And you must be Christina.
05:05Yes.
05:06I'm Perez.
05:07So nice to meet you.
05:08Oh, what she said.
05:09I'm really looking forward to speaking with you both.
05:10So if you're ready, let's get set up.
05:11Okay.
05:12Did I get the message across, or is it still confusing?
05:21No, you definitely got the message across, and it's a lot better than the original copy.
05:25Okay.
05:26But I would like to suggest a few tweaks.
05:29Please, suggest away.
05:30Okay, so your use of whom is grammatically correct, but people tend to hear that word
05:35and think it's, you know, elitist and a little fussy.
05:38So you'd stick with who?
05:39I would.
05:40Okay.
05:41And maybe you could hit the point that because of these new technologies, people don't have
05:46to have such close genetic ties.
05:48No, you're right.
05:50That's the key point.
05:51Thanks to new technology, anyone could be the match that saves a life.
05:54Yes.
05:55I would say just like that.
05:57Oh.
05:58Maybe I should put it right here?
05:59Here?
06:00Yes.
06:01That's exactly where I would put it.
06:31I mean, the crew and everyone is so supportive.
06:37I don't know why I get so anxious before these tapings, and there's no reason to be anxious.
06:41How wonderful to see you with your heads together.
06:44Room for one more?
06:47Look, Diane gave me a 30% chance going up against the FBI.
06:51Those aren't good odds, Chloe.
06:52No, it's better than the 100% chance the case is going to keep you under his thumb with
06:55the evidence that he has.
06:57If I don't turn myself in, you're never going to be free.
06:59If you turn yourself in, you will be convicted of criminal conspiracy and RICO violations.
07:04The recording is proof of those crimes.
07:06You will be sent to prison for decades.
07:08Diane has won tougher trials.
07:10She has.
07:11Look, she had Sonny exonerated.
07:12She could do the same thing for me.
07:13You shouldn't even be in this position.
07:14This is my life!
07:15I am a big girl.
07:16I went to that meeting, and it's on me.
07:23I'm going alone.
07:24No!
07:25You are not!
07:26It's easier than my assignment here in Port Charles.
07:27Oh, really?
07:28Easier than going to federal prison?
07:29Is that right?
07:30Yes.
07:31It's contained.
07:32Right.
07:33Let me tell you something.
07:34Drew was almost killed in Pentonville, and he wasn't the same when he came out.
07:35So, if you think I'm going to stand by and watch that happen to you, you are out of your
07:36mind.
07:37I've known Jason a long time, and he is an honorable man.
07:38He's a good man.
07:39He's a good man.
07:40He's a good man.
07:41He's a good man.
07:42He's a good man.
07:43He's a good man.
07:44He's a good man.
07:45He's a good man.
07:46He's a good man.
07:47He's a good man.
07:53He's a good man.
07:54He's a good man.
07:55He's a good man.
07:56He's a good man.
07:57He's a good man.
07:58He's a good man.
07:59He's a good man.
08:00He's a good man.
08:01He's a good man.
08:02He's a good man.
08:03He's a good man.
08:04He's a good man.
08:05He's a good man.
08:06He's a good man.
08:07He's a good man.
08:08He's a good man.
08:09He's a good man.
08:10He's a good man.
08:11He's a good man.
08:12He's a good man.
08:13He's a good man.
08:14He's a good man.
08:15He's a good man.
08:16He's a good man.
08:17He's a good man.
08:18He's a good man.
08:19He's a good man.
08:20Your innocent law-abiding act is laughable
08:22when you remember that you were a double agent
08:24once upon a time,
08:25a disgrace to our profession.
08:27Oh, I'm a disgrace?
08:28Well, that's rich.
08:30You coerced Jason into becoming an informant.
08:32You kept him away from his family,
08:34his children,
08:35for more than two years.
08:37And for no other reason than you could.
08:40Anna, level with me.
08:43I know all about your entanglement with Valentin Kassadin
08:46and how it ended with the shooting of his daughter.
08:49Now, that has a whole lot of history there.
08:52So, was it you?
08:54Are you the reason Valentin got away?
08:59Closed captioning provided in part by...
09:01As you can see, Willow and I are in the middle of something.
09:04So, if you'll excuse us.
09:07Of course.
09:15You're still here.
09:16I just wanted to say
09:18how truly inspiring it is
09:20that you've set your differences aside.
09:23A long time coming, huh?
09:26We're in a good place.
09:27Wonderful.
09:28I'm sorry, I'm a bit confused
09:30as to which part of
09:32we're in the middle of something
09:34is misfiring in your brain.
09:35The mother-daughter bond
09:37is so important.
09:39Without it...
09:42Well, I'm keenly aware
09:45of how painful that is
09:47now that Sonny is keeping me away from Avery.
09:49Is there something that you would like to ask us, Ava?
09:53Am I that obvious?
09:55Yes.
09:57Well, I was wondering if either one of you
10:00would be willing to sit down with Scott Baldwin...
10:02Your attorney.
10:03...and talk to him about Sonny's behavior
10:06and how disruptive it's been for both his children
10:09and the women who have mistakenly placed their trust in him.
10:12Can you just call it
10:14what it is you want Willow and I
10:18to testify against Sonny
10:22on your behalf?
10:26Man.
10:28Are you insane?
10:32Thank you so much for having us on.
10:34Thank you for agreeing to do the interview.
10:37I'm a huge fan.
10:38Oh, so am I.
10:39This is, it's the perfect platform
10:42for Blaze to show the masses the incredible person she is.
10:45What you're both doing is brave and important.
10:49And I'm so happy to be a part of it.
10:54I can't stand the thought of you going to prison.
10:58Carly, then don't.
11:00Think about yourself.
11:01Think about everybody who relies on you.
11:03And most importantly, your youngest daughter.
11:06Don't do that to me!
11:08You have children
11:09who you've spent so much time away from.
11:11Danny and Jake need you.
11:13I know, I know they do.
11:16Both my boys are almost adults now.
11:18Jake's going to art school
11:19and Danny's becoming more and more independent.
11:21Plus he has Sam.
11:22That's not the same.
11:23I know it's not the same.
11:24And you know that.
11:25I know that.
11:26In an ideal world, my kids would have both their parents, Carly.
11:30But they are used to life without me.
11:33And it's different for Donna.
11:35She would be devastated to be separated from you.
11:37And do you really want to just give her to Sonny?
11:39No, you know I don't want to do that.
11:40Okay.
11:42Then let's keep that from happening.
11:46What if the roles were reversed
11:48and you were the leverage Kate's was using against me?
11:51Would you just stand by and watch?
11:58I mean, if I had a daughter who
12:02depended solely on me,
12:07I would have to.
12:14I can't keep being the weapon
12:17that's used against you.
12:21I can't.
12:24I won't.
12:27That's why Morgan stalled
12:28instead of immediately handing over the satellite phone, isn't it?
12:31So you could make sure your boyfriend had time for a head start.
12:34First of all, Valentine's not my boyfriend.
12:36I don't care what you call him.
12:37What I care about is that he and his daughter have vanished without a trace.
12:40Second, I don't know what you're talking about.
12:42Sure you do.
12:43The phone you told Morgan not to give me
12:45until you had time to tip Cassidyne off.
12:47I don't know, it sounds to me like you botched the arrest
12:49and you're just trying to shift blame.
12:55Do you really think that your time with the WSB makes you immune?
12:58That you're above the federal government?
13:01Because I got news for you and your friend Jack Brennan.
13:03I will not be intimidated.
13:06You can't threaten to stop me
13:07because however Cassidyne escaped,
13:10Morgan is going to be the one who pays for it.
13:37Welcome. Thank you for sitting down with me.
13:39It's great to be here.
13:40Thank you so much for having us on.
13:42Blaze, you're known for being a wildly popular singer-songwriter.
13:47That's me.
13:48But you're also known as the face of deception cosmetics.
13:52Also me.
13:53Busy woman.
13:54Tell me about it.
13:55Is it safe to say you're used to being written about in the headlines?
13:59I am.
14:00But probably not headlines like the most recent ones.
14:04No.
14:05If you haven't been following the story,
14:07Blaze's career took a hit
14:09with the viral posting of an unauthorized recording.
14:13Is that correct?
14:14It is.
14:15Can you tell us about it?
14:17The recording was of my mother
14:19who was discussing the fact that I'm gay.
14:22Not just discussing the fact that you're gay,
14:24but talking about it in a disparaging way.
14:27Specifically in regards to your relationship with Christina.
14:31That's correct.
14:32Christina, you've been openly gay for some time.
14:35I have.
14:36And you were the driving force
14:39behind an LGBTQ plus non-profit in Port Charles, New York
14:43who, upon hearing the leaked recording,
14:46distanced themselves from you.
14:48Unfortunately, yes.
14:49Not the driving force part of the distancing.
14:53Got it.
14:54If you don't mind sharing,
14:56what exactly did the organization take issue with?
14:59Well, their perspective was that
15:02I couldn't be an effective advocate for LGBTQIA plus youth
15:07while being in a closeted relationship.
15:10And I personally feel like they may have misjudged
15:14or misinterpreted the situation
15:17and I'm really hoping they change their minds.
15:24I don't want to speak for Michael,
15:26but I doubt he'd want to take a legal stand against his father.
15:29Even in light of their recent struggles?
15:33Even so.
15:35And I certainly want no part of any of that, so.
15:38Well, I understand.
15:40Thank you for hearing me out.
15:42And thank you for your help with the PSA.
15:44Oh, yeah. Anytime.
15:46Well, I should get going. They're waiting for me upstairs.
15:48Okay, good luck. Not that you'll need it.
15:50Thank you.
15:51Hmm.
15:55Your reaction was a bit hasty, wouldn't you say?
15:58No, I wouldn't say, Ava.
15:59And you must have the shortest memory.
16:02Did you actually think that I would lift even a pinky finger to help you?
16:07So we had an argument.
16:09An argument?
16:12You pretended to be my friend
16:14and then you played me all the while you were cozying up to my husband.
16:21I don't know how you live with yourself.
16:25I've gotten pretty good at it, actually.
16:27For three years, Jason's family thought he was dead.
16:30His poor mother mourned him, his children, his friends.
16:34I mourned him.
16:35And I was very sorry for your loss.
16:36And it was all because of a promise you gave him
16:38that he would be free if he did what you asked.
16:40Well, here we are. Mission completed.
16:42Not quite.
16:44You asked for the head of Pikeman and Jason gave him to you.
16:48And you repay him by shipping him off to Lompoc?
16:51Where is the justice in that?
16:53You want to talk justice?
16:54What about all the charges Morgan skated over the years?
16:57That guy should have gone to prison 15 times over and you know it, Anna.
17:00Oh, that's not for you to decide.
17:02I gave him an out.
17:03What?
17:04To turn over information on Sonny.
17:06Oh.
17:08Look, Jason knows enough dirt on Sonny to put him in prison.
17:10Now, it is 32 years late, but he would be behind bars until the day he died
17:15and that is some kind of consolation.
17:17God, you are a bully.
17:19And a coward.
17:21You are sending Jason away because he won't help you in your vendetta against Sonny.
17:26And how does that make you any better than Korynthos himself?
17:31Oh, so now you're defending Sonny Korynthos.
17:33You're no longer enforcing the law, John.
17:35You are using it for your own ends.
17:37You're twisting it into a pretzel so that you can get revenge on Sonny.
17:41Now, I am all for taking him down, but not at someone else's expense.
17:45And I will do everything in my power to stop you.
17:50I get a choice in this, too, you know.
17:53I'm not saying that you don't.
17:54Yes, you are.
17:55That's exactly what you're saying, but it's my life.
17:57It's my decision.
17:58I'm turning myself in.
17:59Okay, Carly, it's not just your life.
18:04I need you to think.
18:05That's all I've been doing.
18:08I keep thinking about you going to prison, Jason.
18:10Carly, please.
18:11Do you keep that for me?
18:15You know, from the day Michael was born?
18:19And even before that?
18:20Actually, from the day that you showed up at my door,
18:24saying that you lied to everybody that I was his father?
18:29Your family...
18:35has been my family.
18:40So this decision that we will make together
18:44needs to keep Michael, Jocelyn, and Donna in mind.
18:48Can we agree on that?
18:51We can.
18:52Okay.
18:54If one of us has to leave,
19:00it's obvious who it should be.
19:02You're gonna be fine.
19:03I...
19:04You're gonna be fine without me.
19:05I don't...
19:06Carly, you've done it before.
19:08You can do it again.
19:09I don't want to.
19:10Please.
19:11I don't need to be here.
19:15You do.
19:18Because none of this
19:21works without you.
19:33I just got your back.
19:38We're on the same page.
19:42I have to go.
19:45You have to stay.
19:55And that means no turning yourself in to Agent Cates.
20:01Okay.
20:02Okay?
20:03I need to hear you say the words.
20:07I won't turn myself in to Agent Cates.
20:12Sometimes the difference between a summer pool...
20:14Intentionally.
20:16What, did you just trip and accidentally hurl yourself in his arms?
20:21It was a bit more nuanced than that.
20:23Oh, I bet.
20:25Like you,
20:26I fell victim to Sonny's charms.
20:30And then, subsequently, his ever-changing moods.
20:34Am I supposed to feel sorry for you?
20:36No, I'm just explaining.
20:38That also, like you,
20:41I've been cast out.
20:44And I'm at risk
20:46of losing my only remaining child.
20:49And shame on me for thinking that we might find some common ground in that.
20:54We were once really close.
20:55Yeah.
20:56Once being the operative word, Ava.
20:58And whose fault is that?
20:59Mine.
21:01It's my fault.
21:03I tell you,
21:05it's my fault.
21:07I take responsibility for that.
21:10But,
21:11given our history,
21:13isn't there just a little room for compassion?
21:17And then,
21:19possibly, maybe, someday,
21:22forgiveness as well.
21:25No.
21:26Because of our history.
21:29You know, I can't believe that you had the audacity
21:31to even approach me,
21:33let alone ask me for a favor?
21:36And, oh, and as far as Sonny
21:39is concerned,
21:41you hurt his beloved Christina.
21:44Just be thankful.
21:45The worst he does
21:47is take sole custody of Avery.
21:52I was at a meeting in Deception when I heard the recording.
21:55My mother was there as well.
21:57Oh.
21:58That must have been interesting.
21:59One word for it.
22:00How did it feel in that moment,
22:02hearing your mother say those things about you?
22:06I was upset.
22:09Sad, but
22:10mostly I was furious.
22:12Furious at her choice of words?
22:14Or furious at something you'd worked so hard
22:16for so long to keep private
22:18was now public?
22:20All of the above.
22:21One thing we all really want to know,
22:23and it's okay if you decline to answer,
22:26did your mother's feelings
22:28catch you by surprise?
22:31Not really.
22:33I knew my being gay wasn't easy on her.
22:36That she was raised with a less tolerant lens
22:39on most social issues.
22:42What upset me the most was the recording itself.
22:45The fact that it existed, you mean?
22:47Initially, I had no idea that it had been
22:50made and released without her consent.
22:52All I heard was my mother's voice
22:55saying all these things about me and Christina.
22:59I...
23:00I didn't understand
23:02that her privacy had been violated too.
23:04How would you describe your relationship
23:06with your mother over the years?
23:08Complicated.
23:09Most of us would probably say that, right?
23:12But it was steady.
23:14I always knew where I stood,
23:16and my mom's an excellent business manager,
23:20sacrificing a lot for my career.
23:23Has this incident changed things between you?
23:27It's a little raw right now.
23:31But she's still my mom.
23:34I think.
23:38I hope we can repair our relationship.
23:41It just takes time.
23:44Well, luckily we have that in speeds.
23:49Every age is different.
23:52Every agent in the history of the world
23:54has cut corners at some point,
23:56and you will be no exception.
23:58What are you getting at, Commissioner?
24:00What I'm getting at is that I have the know-how
24:02and the connections to dig into all your missteps,
24:05every falsified detail and every self-serving report.
24:09In short, I can destroy your career.
24:12Another threat?
24:14No, it's one I will make good on.
24:16All in the name of Jason Morgan Mob Enforcer.
24:18It's nothing to do with Jason.
24:20Really?
24:21No, it's to do with you and what you're doing.
24:22It's criminal.
24:24And you know the worst part?
24:25You know it.
24:26You are trashing people's lives
24:29in your pursuit of Sonny.
24:31And it's wrong, and it's corrupt,
24:33and I'm done letting it happen.
24:36You know, by the time I'm finished with you,
24:38you'll be the one in Long Pope.
24:42What do we do now?
24:45Are you gonna go home?
24:47Are you gonna live your life?
24:48Be a great mom?
24:50Just be yourself?
24:53What about you?
24:56You know where I'm going.
25:05I can't say goodbye to you again.
25:11Then don't.
25:13Thank you for not making this harder than it needs to be.
25:20Hey.
25:22I'm gonna be okay.
25:25You better be.
25:28I don't know what I'm gonna do without you.
25:34Just stay calm.
25:36Think things through.
25:37Yeah. Yeah, that's me.
25:39Yeah, that's me.
25:40And when you wanna do something crazy and jump right in,
25:44before you do...
25:48Take a deep breath and count to ten.
25:51She remembers.
25:54She always remembers.
25:59Coming soon to your favorite...
26:01...has been blown wildly out of proportion.
26:06So you didn't record Blaze's mother without her knowledge
26:10and then turn said recording over to the Invader
26:13because my own editor-in-chief says you did.
26:17Have you met Blaze's bigoted mother yet?
26:21I haven't, but I'm a big fan of her daughter, so...
26:24Well, I have spent more time with Natalia Ramirez than I care to.
26:28Well, I'm sure she regrets those minutes more than you do.
26:30And Sunny.
26:31Those two practically joined at the hip.
26:35That's nice.
26:36Yeah, dinner's out and metro court pool dates.
26:39She's even been to the penthouse.
26:41Well, Sunny is free to spend time with whoever he wants.
26:46Hey, I just thought you'd be interested.
26:47No, I'm not interested.
26:48And this feeble attempt to try to make me jealous is just laughable.
26:52I mean, come on, Ava. Is this the best you got?
26:55To try to get me to join your unholy alliance?
27:00It's not an alliance. It's a deposition.
27:03You don't want me anywhere near this custody suit.
27:09Real talk.
27:11That would be nice.
27:15Despite our differences.
27:17And I know they're significant.
27:20Do you really doubt my capabilities as a mother?
27:24Or my devotion to Avery?
27:26Your love for your daughter is your one redeeming quality, Ava.
27:31But your love has limits.
27:33You tend to complete Avery's well-being with your own.
27:39So you think Sunny is better equipped to raise our daughter than I am?
27:44I already told Sunny I don't want any part of this custody suit.
27:48But...
27:50Yes.
27:51But...
27:53Yes.
27:55I'm rooting for Sunny.
27:58Things have really changed, haven't they?
28:01They have.
28:03For me, my life is better.
28:08Maybe not so much for you.
28:10Yeah.
28:17Christina, you've been disavowed by the LGBTQ plus center you founded.
28:23And Blaze, you're getting heat from fans on both sides of the issue.
28:27Does it feel like you can't win?
28:30Do you mind if I take this one?
28:32Please.
28:34I don't think we are the real victims here.
28:37We're both out in our lives privately with our family and our friends.
28:42And really, it was only a matter of time before Blaze was out publicly to her fans as well.
28:47Wouldn't you say that's fair?
28:48Definitely.
28:49We're really proud of who we are, individually and together as a unit.
28:54Then why keep your reality a secret?
28:58We were being patient.
29:00We were waiting until our reality was a more palatable pill for Blaze's mother to swallow.
29:08Okay, Natalia.
29:09Be a big girl.
29:11You deserve whatever's coming to you.
29:14Natalia, she loves her daughter so much.
29:17And she has come to treat me with decency and respect.
29:23Even though love isn't always love in her eyes?
29:27Look, I...
29:29Natalia's views are very hurtful, and I've said that to her directly.
29:34But at the end of the day, they're just that.
29:36You know, they're her views and her opinions, and she's entitled to them as much as anybody else.
29:42Is that what you meant when you said you weren't the real victims here?
29:46Sorry, I am taking my time getting to the point here.
29:50It's fine.
29:51Yes, it is.
29:53Natalia is the real victim here.
29:55And just to be clear, I think the only person who has anything to be ashamed of is the one who made that recording in the first place.
30:03You're being very generous.
30:05Thank you, but I think I'm just being human.
30:08I mean, God knows I've made my fair share of mistakes.
30:10We all have.
30:13I think the important thing is that we own them, apologize for them, and ultimately learn from them.
30:21If I can do it, so can anyone.
30:23So what you're saying is, there's hope for all of us.
30:29And what's more powerful than that?
30:34Your empty threats are music to my ears.
30:36Well, there's nothing empty about them, but that's okay.
30:38You'll find out soon enough.
30:42You just confirmed everything I suspected about you, Anna.
30:45You never had any intention of bringing Sonny to jail.
30:48You never had any intention of bringing Sonny to justice.
30:52You're just as dirty as he is.
30:54Who knows, maybe you'll be the one going to prison.
30:58Thanks for the chat.
31:00It was a real eye-opener.
31:01Oh yeah, it certainly was.
31:13Hi, I'm going to be out of the station for the rest of the day.
31:16Something I need to take care of.
31:18Yeah, thanks.
31:47Hey, Dad.
31:50Danny, how's it going?
31:51Did you get rid of the FBI guy?
31:53I mean, there's still time.
31:54I can meet you at the docks.
31:55We can get on the speedboat, go to the islands.
31:58We can't.
31:59We can't go to the islands.
32:01Like, not today?
32:03Or...
32:04Or at least for a long time.
32:07Why not?
32:08Why not?
32:09Why not?
32:10Why not?
32:11Why not?
32:12Why not?
32:13Why not?
32:14For a long time.
32:15Why not?
32:17Dad, what's going on?
32:23Right now, we are focused on putting this bump in the road behind us.
32:27Speaking of bumps, I couldn't help but notice.
32:31Yeah, it's pretty noticeable these days.
32:34Congrats.
32:35Thank you.
32:38And I take it that's all I'm going to get on that.
32:40No, it's just, it's a part of our lives we would like to keep private for now.
32:44Understood.
32:46Well, thank you for joining me, and I wish you both the best with everything.
32:50Thank you.
32:51Thank you.
32:56I think that went really well.
32:57How do you feel?
32:58Oh my gosh, I feel great.
32:59Yeah.
33:00Well, thank you for coming.
33:01I appreciate your time.
33:03Thank you so much.
33:04Thank you.
33:05Thank you.
33:08That was incredible.
33:09You guys knocked it out of the park.
33:11I feel like we should celebrate.
33:13Bobby's milkshakes, anyone?
33:14Yes.
33:15I'm buying.
33:16Well, yeah.
33:32Hey, about time.
33:33No, no, come in.
33:35I'm sorry about earlier.
33:38That was a very rude and inopportune interruption.
33:43Bad news?
33:44Nothing I can't handle.
33:45In fact, if events roll out the way I think, I will soon have everything I need to bring Sunny to justice.
34:04Hi, Chris.
34:05Miss Spencer.
34:06Something I can do for you?
34:07Yes.
34:08You can send two bellhops up to John Cates' suite.
34:11Is Mr. Cates checking out?
34:12He sure is.
34:13So have them pack up all of his things, bring his luggage down here to the lobby, and reprogram his door for the next guest.
34:19Understood.
34:23This is what we call taking out the trash.
34:27Dad, you're freaking me out.
34:28Just tell me.
34:29I've been put on another assignment that's taken me out of town.
34:34What do you mean assignment?
34:36Is that what the FBI guy wanted to talk to you about?
34:38Do you work for him now?
34:40Danny, it's just, it's hard to explain, but I have to go away.
34:44I'm sorry.
34:45Where?
34:46Where is he sending you?
34:48I can't tell you.
34:49Dad, this is crazy.
34:50Come on, we can get in the speedo and go to Canada.
34:52They can't drag you right from another country, right?
34:55I'm sorry.
34:56Stop saying you're sorry and fix this.
34:59Listen.
35:02You're a great son.
35:04I'm so proud of you and I love you so much.
35:06I just need you to know that.
35:07Can you stop talking like this is the last time we're going to see each other?
35:10The next bus to Albany will be departing in 15 minutes.
35:18Be good, okay?
35:20Dad.
35:21Bye, Danny.
35:22Be good, okay?
35:24Dad.
35:25Bye, Danny.
35:26Dad!
