At Jackson Inc., Sully sits inside Xavier's office, along with Gracie, as Jack walks inside and tells his Cousins "I think Mom and Uncle Xavier's visiting Ryan. Bree and I know they stayed together last night and knowing them.." Sully tells Jack "Stop being so damn overprotective over Aunt Ava." Gracie agrees, and adds "She's a lonely woman and she needs attention and to most importantly be with J.J.. Samantha needs to stop the shit." Jack warns Gracie "You are talking about my Wife, and on Aunt Beth's side, your distant cousin I think it is, well whatever. I'm going to work and pray my Mother doesn't lose her mind or see Aaron. One only knows when our parents do this and calls in Country and Henry." Jack heads to his office, as Sully looks at her Sister, and goes "Do you feel numb over all this happening right now? I do." Gracie nods in agreement, as they take a deep breath.
Downstairs in the studio at Chase Media, Ryan warns Xavier, as his voice cracks with fear "This is highly unprofessional Xavier." Xavier snaps angrily "Bastard it's Mr. Jackson!" Leigh yells at her Husband "A new life X. Away from you finally." Xavier moves the aim of his Colt 45 to Ryan, as Ava keeps her pistol aimed at Leigh, and Henry and Country stands back, armed and ready, as Ava tells Ryan "We have a way of doing things umm, our way. And our friends we consider family, sweet Henry, and then the other one." Country rolls his eyes, as she tells them "Look over there at that equipment. It's in the Jackson Building. So it's ours." Ryan screams "What did you just say?" Ava turns to Ryan, and aims at him, and asks "Any other questions?", as Xavier also keeps his aim on Ryan, as Leigh tells Ryan "I'm sure there's other places." Ryan nods, as he then screams "WHAT??", as gunfire explodes cameras and equipment in the studio, as Henry and Country destroy the studio, that's empty with the machine guns, as Xavier and Ava puts their pistols down, and Xavier tells Ryan and Leigh "No more games now. Next time it's you. And Leigh, we're finished and hope this works out because you'll lose to me and don't forget that whore!" Xavier, Ava, Country, and Henry heads out, as Xavier yells "Better be out by tomorrow." As they leave, Ryan screams "Those crazy ass bastards!" Leigh tells him "They don't like the truth. Trust me I was married to X for a very long time. I mean soon to be was."
At Chantel's, Jared meets with Ruthie, as she tells her Father "So wanted to see me instead of the boss this time huh?" Jared asks his Daughter "And what's wrong with spending time with me?" Ruthie snaps "One thing is you hurt my Mom. She has Henry, but I miss the two of you." Jared reminds her gently "It's not easy to make up after what occurred with us. Sully's not one to forgive easily." Ruthie tells her Father "At least get away from Bridget." Jared sighs with disgust "Ruthie, we have a past. Please understand," Ruthie rolls her eyes and orders a meal as does Jared. At HaleCorp, Rachel arrives, as Angelica sits inside the lobby, and welcomes her with a hug, as Rachel asks her "And what's the hug for?" Angelica tells Rachel "I wish you were Wade's new bride. I'm willing to pay you." Rachel is silent, as Wade walks into the lobby, and tells Rachel "Come in." Rachel walks inside, as Angelica follows, but Wade tells his Grandmother "Only us." and shuts the door. Angelica sits back down, and looks down at her purse, and heads to Class. Inside Wade's office, Rachel pulls out a small tape recorder, as she begins to interview Wade, as he reads the questions and answers them, as Rachel's silent, with a smile on her face.
Meanwhile at Class, Randi sits at a register, as she says to herself "I'd rather be back at my mansion." Bridget walks over and asks Randi "So Ruthie went out I see?" Randi nods, as Bridget writes her up, and returns to her office, as Randi sits at the register, and plays with her phone. Willie and Aretha walks around the store, as Randi yells 'Shoplifters!", as Aretha holds onto her Mother, as Willie snaps "What did you just call us?" Randi goes "Well I thought you were thieves." Aretha asks Randi, trying to stay calm "Where is your manager." Randi quips "She stepped out." Willie heads to Bridget's office, as Aretha follows, and turns to Randi, and warns her "You messed up. Better learn who you're talking to girl." Inside Bridget's office, a salesperson is inside, and tells her "Randi has been rude to a number of patrons today." Bridget sit back, and quips "It's Ruthie Hale's job to train her. So look like I'll have to write her up." The door opens, as Willie walks inside as she yells angrily "It's 2018 and I will not put up with this racist shit from an old bitch like that new employee! Do I need to call Sully or Xavier? They'll fix this shit!" Aretha stands by her Mother, as Bridget tells them "Sully hired her." Aretha looks at her Mother, as Willie asks Bridget "And exactly what is your job?" Bridget snaps hatefully "Who are you to ask me that?" Aretha tells Bridget "We're passing our visit to Sully personally and we know how she'll deal with you." Aretha and Willie walks out, as Bridget rolls her eyes, and looks at her stomach, and smiles.
At Lord Media, Rachel returns, as Roger awaits her, and asks "So what's plan B or C?" Rachel quips "Wade's telling it to Ryan. Too hot to touch." Roger reminds Rachel "If it's too hot, then why not take some of the wrath? That's what this is about." Rachel warns Roger "I am not going to cover anything on the Jackson family or anyone remotely connected. If I did that, then I'd be dead and I'm not ready to die or leave home again Roger Lord! You've been around long enough to know their power and influence they make well known." Roger nods, and quips "This will put a bullet in somebody. I don't see Xavier letting someone slide, as he reads Wade's transcript, and goes "Did you send this to Ryan?" Rachel nods, and smiles "Wade even agreed. But Ryan's already about to royally piss off the wrong ones in that family." Roger laughs, as he goes "We're about to be on top again. I need to start planning a bid for the newspaper." Rachel laughs, as they kiss, and Roger holds Rachel in his arms tightly, and goes "You're amazing Rachel." Rachel smiles, with happiness in her eyes.
At Jackson Inc., Sully's inside Xavier's office, as her Father walks inside, and Sully hugs him, as Ava follows behind her Brother, and also hugs her Niece, as Sully asks them "And what happened downstairs? Heard some shots fired." Xavier tells his Daughter "Welcoming your Mother to Chase Media Princess. And evicting Ryan." Sully laughs "Is Mom still alive?" Xavier answers "Yes. Tomorrow that place better be empty or I'll clean it for him with my cleaning team." Ava quips "Ryan's a little whiny ass. He doesn't act like his Daddy or Mama at all." Sully goes "Well everything here is going smooth. So no need to worry and I guess the two of you are staying close to each other. Not sure if that's good or bad." Ava looks at her Brother, and smiles "Depends. We're kinda sobered now after all the noise." Xavier laughs, as does Sully. In Jack's office, Javon walks inside, as he tells Jack "Your Mom and Xavier's returned." Jack warns Javon "Now isn't a good time to make that proposal to him." Back inside Xavier's office, Xavier and Ava hug Sully, as Ava asks "Where's Gracie?" Sully tells them "She's meeting with some clients for me." They nod, as they head out, and in the lobby, Jack watches his Mom and Uncle leave, before walking into Xavier's office, and asks "And how were they? I heard the gunshots downstairs.." Sully goes "They were fine. They were acting like good adults. Didn't kill nobody, well yet." Jack sits down, as he takes a deep sigh of relief, as Sully opens a text, and her eyes turn red.
At City Hospital, Willie walks inside her Son's office, as she fumes with anger, as Terrance walks inside and asks his Mother "Aretha filled me in on what happened. Just go work with the babies today, and you'll feel better. Aretha said she's going to speak to Sully." Willie sighs with disgust "She wanted to say something else I'm certain. I'm certain I'd told her ass where to go too." Terrance tells his Mother "You're getting a little feisty lately Mama." Willie looks at him, and smiles "The good things outshine the dark things. I love staying busy and doing my part. And proud of my family." Willie walks out, as Terrance sits, and grows silent, as he calls Class, and Randi answers, as Terrance asks "Is this Randi?" Randi goes "It is." Terrance warns "I'm Dr. Evans and if you ever disrespect my family again you'll deal with me and I'll make a phone call to someone you don't want to meet." Terrance hangs up. At Class, Randi looks behind her, as Ruthie snaps "Well looks like you're messing up badly. Wanna explain calling Aretha and Willie Evans shoplifters?" Randi snaps back coldly "Don't like them. Never will." Ruthie warns "Mom will deal with you over this, and may just want to pack your bags." Ruthie walks away, as Randi sits at the register, and grins, as she has a thought.
Meanwhile at Class, inside Bridget's Office, Bridget walks around her office, as Angelica walks in, and Bridget yells to her secretary "Looks like you wanna be fired!" Angelica holds papers, and coldly goes "Bridget Walsh, the blue collar whore that has the Brother thingy going on it appears. Thank me later for getting your lab results." Bridget's eyes turn red, and she yells at Wade's Grandmother "How dare you do this you evil twisted bitch.." Angelica snaps "And you better behave and do as I say or Wade will know the hard way, he and all will know at the same time. Media war going on and money for me and the future of the bloodline you shall carry. Afterwards, the child will go with me and be taught correctly..." Bridget pulls out a knife, and warns Angelica "Don't even try. My family has connections too." Angelica laughs "Well I know my limits. And you don't push it whore or I'll make you pay, and destroy your life and enjoy your pain." Angelica walks out, as Bridget calls Jared, as he sits at HaleCorp, inside his office, as Bridget tells him "Angelica knows about our child." Jared screams "Damnit!", as Bridget tells him "Let's meet right now!" Jared agrees, as both hangs up, and head to The Holiday Hotel.
At Chase Media, Leigh sits in the studio, as Ryan runs inside, and sighs with relief "At least they didn't destroy everything. Has Wade arrived?" Leigh answers "Nope. Not yet." Ryan rolls his eyes, and tells Leigh "This interview will be leverage on your Husband and his evil family." Leigh assures Ryan "Once this divorce is finalized and I get everything, wanna be CEO of Jackson Inc?" Ryan is quiet, as his eyes widen and a grin comes across his face. At The Sunset Club, Gracie sits at the bar, as Will sits next to her, and goes "Want a drink? Its on me." Gracie turns to Will, and takes a deep breath, and tells him "I'm pregnant Will." Will's eyes light up, and Gracie tells him with sadness "You're not the Father. But once Daddy learns, it's not going to be pretty." Will asks "Why?" Gracie tells him "Wade Issac's the Father." Will's jaw drops, and grabs her hand, and tells her "I'm in love with you Gracie, and I'll be this kid's Father and claim him." Gracie and Will kiss. At Hell Hill, Xavier and Ava return inside, as Ava tells her Brother "I'm going across the road and check on things." Ava heads out, as Xavier walks into his study, as he smells perfume, and opens the door and his eyes widen, as someone sits at his desk, and Xavier goes "I'm dreaming. Tell me I'm dreaming!" The person gets up, and walks over to Xavier, and tells him "I'm home sweet boy. Grandma's home."
Back at Chase Media, Ryan grows frustrated, as he screams "Where is he? He better not have copped out because I'm depending on it!" At HaleCorp, Angelica returns, and walks into Wade's office, and screams "OH MY GOD!!!", as Wade's been shot three times and lays on the ground.
A fictional serial set in the Southeastern City of Adam's Landing, and The Jackson, Sullivan, Hale, and Evans Families.

Daylight And Darkness: The Next Chapter, Episode 19. The Derailing Train
It's the next day in Adam's Landing, and at Sully's Mansion, Sully sits inside the kitchen, as she finishes her coffee, as Ruthie walks inside, and Sully asks her Daughter "So did you get that text I sent?" Ruthie checks, and goes "I'll treat her like she treats me." Sully hugs her Daughter, as Randi walks downstairs, and yells at Sully "I told you I need no damn job!" Sully snaps fiercely "And you are not mooching off of me so get moving. I'm in no mood for your shit!" Ruthie heads out, as she tells Randi "Come on. I'm driving you there and back since you lost your car." Ruthie and Randi leaves, as Sully yells upstairs "Hey Henry remember what you promised me before work?" Sully walks upstairs, as Henry is still passed out, and Sully jumps on the bed, as he opens his eyes, and asks "Have you lost your mind?" Sully tells her fiancé "I'm about to cure that hangover, and then off to work in a happy mood as long as everyone leaves me the hell alone." Sully takes off her robe, as she and Henry has sex.
At Hell Hill, Xavier walks into the kitchen, as Ava asks her Brother "So stayed in the study? I crashed on the couch." Xavier asks his Sister "Where's my Mother?" Ava tells him "She went over to Frank's, but there's some coffee and now to plan our attack after last night's little revelation." They walk into the kitchen, as they pour themselves a glass, and sits down, as Xavier asks Ava "So now what's your thoughts on Brock? That's some very interesting information he risked his life to get." Ava agrees, and adds "And he wants to plant a mole inside our company!" Xavier sighs "It's strange, but here we are talking about Wade, and no discussing Leigh and the other person I wish was dead." Ava looks at her Brother, and tells him in a stern tone "He has little time to breathe." Xavier agrees, as he makes a phone call to Country, to no answer, as Ava warns him "For the best interests of Sully and your twins, need to tell them to warn their Mother that she's hanging with a dead man walking." Ava walks outside, as Xavier takes a deep breath. Outside, Ava lights a cigarette, and says to herself "You're working for someone Aaron, and anybody I suspect helping you are dying with you."
At The Farm, Frank drinks coffee, as there's a knock at the door, and Frank walks over to answer, as it's Beth, and Frank asks her "You don't get up this early and move around. What happened last night over at Hell Hill? Bree told me something was going on, but then my Sister goes batshit again." Beth sits down, as Frank gets up to pour her a cup, and Beth sighs with disgust "Leigh Woods has really messed up. She's going to have two people going after her I fear, maybe more. If she wasn't the Mother to three of my Grandkids, I'd kill her over this Frank!" Frank asks "Well Beth what in the hell did she do?" Beth bluntly answers "Screwed Aaron Pittman. Does that name send any red flags flying?" Frank takes a deep breath, as he goes "Oh shit. That son of a bitch is back in Adam's Landing?" Beth nods, as Frank snarls with anger "That was icing on the cake for Mama and Daddy's marriage. That shit Jamie and Junior pulled was sick. I still to this, well let's rephrase. They were truly the worst of the family. Jamie deserves to stay in prison and glad Xavier killed Junior! He really deserved it!" Beth asks Frank "So are you implying that Leigh deserves a bullet? I'd gladly put one in her." Frank walks over, as he and Beth hug, and he reminds her "Well we know somehow Aaron's going to regret coming back, and well we'll see about Leigh." Beth asks "And did you know she wants everything? Jackson Inc. Hell Hill.." Frank promises Beth "Knowing Xavier, Ava, myself, and all of us, she won't be getting a damn thing." Frank sits next to her on the couch, as she puts her head on his shoulder, as he holds her close to him with a smile on his face.
At Chase Media, Gracie arrives, as Leigh sits in the lounge, and asks her Daughter "Don't I get a good morning? I am your Mother." Gracie snaps at her Mother fiercely "You bitch. To cheat on Daddy! With Aunt Ava's rapist!!!" Leigh attacks Gracie, as a fight breaks out, and Ryan runs out of his office, as he pulls them apart, as Leigh warns her Daughter "If all of you wanna side with that Mama's boy, then you can go to hell! All of you! There's some things you don't know!" Gracie turns to Ryan, as she pulls out her card, and hands it to Ryan, and goes "I've not set up an office, and I will do that upstairs since you appear to have hired her according to the news this morning. Looks to be true and I'll forward the message you piece of shit. You really need to leave my damn family the hell alone!" Gracie walks over to the elevator, as she gets on, and heads upstairs to Jackson Inc. At The Holiday Hotel, Brock sits in the bar, as he's silent, and Ciarra sits across from her Great-Nephew, as she reminds him "If you see him, then you call Beth or Xavier, or even Sully. But don't call nobody else, and I came for the breakfast special so no gunfire." Brock nods in agreement, as unknown to them, Aaron walks inside, as he walks up to the bar and sits down, as he meets with someone, as they tell him "Ok Mr. Pitts, you can work for our company and manage this hotel. Mr. Hale approved. He is very hands on with this. It's his life." Aaron smiles "And this has been my life's work. I will do excellent at running things here."
Meanwhile at Whispering Hills, Bree stands in the living room with Jack, as he tells his Cousin "Mom said she isn't leaving from across the road until it's time, and I've called Country, and Henry, and no answer." Bree goes "Shit. I know exactly what the two of them are doing." Jack warns "Don't forget Brock, he has been trying to act like Uncle Xavier." Bree goes "I'm more worried about your Mom. She's the one that's likely going to the dark side, and if she's going to slow up drinking, the last place she needs to be is Hell Hill." Jack agrees, as they head across the road, and are stopped, as Wade gets out of his car, and asks "Where's Ava?" Bree and Jack glare at him, and Jack answers bluntly "None of your damn business and get the hell out of here before we have you locked up. Remember you aren't allowed here." Wade quips "Well didn't know." Bree laughs "Aunt Ava hates you, but loves your Grandmother." Jack sighs "Yep. Odd friendship. Very odd." Bree nods in agreement, as they head across the road, as Wade watches on, and heads to HaleCorp.
At Hell Hill, Ava and Xavier sits inside his study, as they share a bottle of liquor, as they look at each other, and Ava tells her Brother "There's an abandoned outhouse out back.", as she flicks her bic. Xavier tells his Sister, as he puts the bottle under his desk "Sis, if Leigh's going to lose, and believe me the bitch will, it can't be by fire unless you can leave our family out of your fury." Ava tells him "I told you before I can't make no promises when I'll attack. Adam's Landing may be growing, but it's still a town I'll run into them eventually." Xavier gets a text, and screams "OH SHIT!" Ava gasps "What.." Xavier snarls "Damn if Leigh didn't turn into Jamie! Ryan, remember him?" Ava nods, as Xavier yells "That bastard has hired her for a talk show or some shit, and now she's about to expose us. And take our legacy!" Ava pulls a pistol from her purse, as she coldly answers, as she reaches under the desk for the bottle of liquor and pours a glass and takes a drink "She may have to pay with blood the way she's going. Better warn her because I'm taking care of Aaron's ass!" Xavier rolls his eyes, as they head to Jackson Inc.
At Jackson Inc, Sully and Henry arrives,and Country, and Bobby awaits her inside her Father's office, as Country tells her "I've called Brock, and he's not answering." Sully tells him "Aunt Ciarra's with him actually. She left the Penthouse! Yay for my sweet Aunt." All agree, as Henry tells them "Leigh's in the building." The door opens, as Leigh storms inside, and Bobby looks at her, and asks "So wanna discuss how low on money we can go since you've clearly lost this one to me. I've already called Monica, and Jo's gonna take care of things." Sully is silent, as she gets emotional, and Country hugs her, and goes "Uncle Country's here." Henry also comforts her, as Bobby tells Leigh "Xavier has issued an order that you stay out of this building." Leigh snaps "Exactly where at in the building?" Sully yells "Damnit can't you hear him he said nowhere!" Leigh tells everyone in the room "Go to hell all of you!" Leigh walks up to her Daughter, and looks at Henry, and laughs "And you are just like your Father. And your so called man is a piece of shit." Sully boldly answers "At least I'm not sleeping with my Husband's Sister's former rapist and a first class whore." Leigh storms out, as Bobby tells them "I'm going to my office. Call me if we need to have security discussions." Everyone nods, as Sully and Henry looks at Country, as he tells them "Ava knows, but does Jack know anything?" Sully answers "I've never heard him speak of Aaron." Sully warns them "After the short time Daddy spoke this morning, he's pissed." Country laughs "He and Ava in that ol' Hell Hill study isn't a good sign. And if your Grandma's there." Henry goes "A cool woman Ms. Beth." Sully hugs Henry tightly, as she asks Country "Will you go stay there and relieve Grandma? And try your best to keep them from losing it." Country responds with a warning "I can't promise nothing sweetheart. I can only tell you that they are planning something. And it's huge whatever it is." Sully is quiet, as she sits, and checks her mail on her computer, and gasps, as she tells them "Daddy sent me this from something Brock gave him last night!" Country looks at Henry, and goes "Hope you got your aim perfect, because this will get ugly. This confirms it all!" Sully sits back and sighs "I'm gonna deal with Wade. His Wife, and the whore that sleeps with my Ex, works for me." Sully laughs as Henry and Country both look at each other, as Country heads to Hell Hill, and Henry sits with Sully, and asks "How's Mom doing?" Sully goes "Heard nothing. Considering that good." Henry nods in agreement, and they kiss each other, and Henry sits at the desk, as he goes "Just waiting on the phone to ring."
At The Farm, Frank sits inside the Nursery, as Cale arrives, and asks his Father "Who was the woman here last night?" Frank tells his Son "Randi Miller. She and Bob are Henry Jennings' parents." Cale warns his Father "This doesn't sound good. I did see an abandoned car last night. Did she pull a fast one?" Frank goes "Damn well he had sex." Cale sighs "Dad, don't let another woman come in your life and take advantage of you and your demons you battle. You will always have Aunt Beth, whether or not the two of you are married." Frank agrees, as he feels guilt over the night before.
Meanwhile at City Hospital, Beth walks inside her office, as Barbara and Terrance walks inside and Beth tells them "Olivia's on her way and yes I will donate to adding a new wing to the research center. It's making great strides I've noticed." Terrance tells Beth "This hospital is running smooth." Barbara agrees, and asks them "I want y'all to look at these and tell me if something's off to you." Beth and Terrance look, as Barbara goes "The nurses couldn't read them." Terrance looks at Beth, and Beth asks "And who wrote those scripts Barbara?" Barbara is silent, as Keisha walks inside and tells them "Olivia's training Ginny later today." Beth sighs "I need to spend more time with her. She said she'd be around more." Barbara answers "That's good." Keisha looks at Terrance, as he tells everyone "Keisha and Javon's decided to get married at Mama's house and all are invited." Everyone congratulate Keisha and Terrance, as they accept the invitations.
At The Holiday Hotel, Brock sits with Will and Ciarra, as she tells him of her life in retail, as he's in amazement, and Brock goes "It's a family trait. Own a store." Ciarra smiles, as she reflects "Sullivan's was an amazing store for many years. A real pioneer. Same for Jim's. 15,000 square feet was considered huge once upon a time." Brock and Will listen on. In the Manager's office, Aaron's on the phone, as he calls Jackson Inc, and he goes "I'm looking for Jackson Hale." Jackson Inc.'s receptionist responds "We can't give no info. Company mandate number one." The receptionist hangs up, as Aaron has an idea, and looks up names of members of the Jackson family on his phone, as he goes "Oh wow. Watch out Leigh because I may be dropping you. Getting old for a model."
Wade arrives at HaleCorp, as Jared awaits his Brother, as Wade warns Jared "I know you are sleeping with my Wife Jared. The shit will come back on you!" Jared yells "Maybe if you truly loved your Wife, and your I think teenage son, well I'd tend to them first and she hates living around that evil bitch we have as a Grandmother." Wade yells "Jared, you are the least of my problems. Brock stole some important expansion plans and gave them to his Daddy I bet. I declare war and I'll talk on Rachel's new talk show that's going to be on to expose it." Jared laughs, as he heads to his office "Good luck surviving that. Literally." Jared walks out, with fear in his eyes, as he goes to his office. At City Hospital, Angelica sits in the lab section and goes "I'm here on behalf of my sweet Daughter In Law, and she needs some info. That old flu just been going round." The lab tech goes "Hold on." Angelica smiles.
At Hell Hill, Bree and Jack stands outside, as she sighs with fear "Jack they are really planning something huge. I am even stunned Leigh would do this." Jack tells his Cousin "In a way I can relate with Samantha, J.J. and Mom." Bree quips "Jo looked that over, and called in one of her 'many' favors since she was the Adam's Landing leading judge well over thirty years and still stays involved in some fashion. A great lady and help to me." Jack tells her "I'm headed to Jackson Inc, and see if I find them there, and I'll touch base later." They hug and part ways. At Chase Media, Henry and Country stands outside the doors to the building holding machine guns and ski masks, as they look at each other. Upstairs at Jackson Inc, Sully sits inside her office, as Gracie walks in and tells her Sister "I quit downstairs. What's open?" Sully answers "Bridget's position." Back downstairs at Chase Media, inside Leigh has finished filming a commercial, as Ryan applauds, and goes "Just beautiful. Elegant as one expects Ms. Woods to look." Leigh smiles, and quips "It's natural." Outside, Xavier and Ava arrives, as Xavier tells Henry and Country quietly "Take off the masks now. Now it's time to take care of some business my way." Xavier points to the door, holding his Colt 45, as Ava stands next to her Brother, holding a pistol, as Country and Henry carry machine guns, as they rush inside, and shoots out the glass, as people back up, as Xavier yells "Ok you punk ass little bastard you done pissed off the wrong son of a bitch in Adam's Landing!" Xavier and Ava ask for directions, and heads to the studio, as Ava reminds everyone "Make one call I will clean you dry. Remember the Jackson name in this damn town!" They head to the studio, as they walk inside, and a Xavier fires a shot in the air, as Ryan ducks, as does Leigh, as Ava stands back silently and lights a cigarette, and Xavier aims his Colt 45 at Leigh, and in a drunken tone, asks her "Tell me how to deal with you?" Country and Henry stands behind Xavier and Ava, guns loaded, as Ava aims her pistol at Leigh as well, and Xavier looks at Ryan and goes "And you are officially evicted and I will personally seek to break your empire into small little bits and sell to different people." Leigh yells at her Husband "I can't wait to see you in court. I got my papers this morning." Xavier yells "Good! I can't believe you turned into a whore Leigh!" Ryan tries to defend Leigh, as Leigh attempts to slap Xavier, as Ava aims at her and goes "Touch him and die trash." Country and Henry aims at Ryan, as he backs up, and grows scared, as he attempts to reach for the phone, but Xavier shoots, and goes "Try again and see where the next bullet lands."
At Hell Hill, Xavier walks into the kitchen, as Ava asks her Brother "So stayed in the study? I crashed on the couch." Xavier asks his Sister "Where's my Mother?" Ava tells him "She went over to Frank's, but there's some coffee and now to plan our attack after last night's little revelation." They walk into the kitchen, as they pour themselves a glass, and sits down, as Xavier asks Ava "So now what's your thoughts on Brock?

At The Holiday Hotel, Brock sits in the bar, as he's silent, and Ciarra sits across from her Great-Nephew, as she reminds him "If you see him, then you call Beth or Xavier, or even Sully. But don't call nobody else, and I came for the breakfast special so no gunfire." Brock nods in agreement, as unknown to them, Aaron walks inside, as he walks up to the bar and sits down, as he meets with someone, as they tell him "Ok Mr. Pitts, you can work for our company and manage this hotel. Mr. Hale approved. He is very hands on with this. It's his life." Aaron smiles "And this has been my life's work. I will do excellent at running things here."
Meanwhile at Whispering Hills, Bree stands in the living room with Jack, as he tells his Cousin "Mom said she isn't leaving from across the road until it's time, and I've called Country, and Henry, and no answer." Bree goes "Shit. I know exactly what the two of them are doing." Jack warns "Don't forget Brock, he has been trying to act like Uncle Xavier." Bree goes "I'm more worried about your Mom. She's the one that's likely going to the dark side, and if she's going to slow up drinking, the last place she needs to be is Hell Hill." Jack agrees, as they head across the road, and are stopped, as Wade gets out of his car, and asks "Where's Ava?" Bree and Jack glare at him, and Jack answers bluntly "None of your damn business and get the hell out of here before we have you locked up. Remember you aren't allowed here." Wade quips "Well didn't know." Bree laughs "Aunt Ava hates you, but loves your Grandmother." Jack sighs "Yep. Odd friendship. Very odd." Bree nods in agreement, as they head across the road, as Wade watches on, and heads to HaleCorp.
At Hell Hill, Ava and Xavier sits inside his study, as they share a bottle of liquor, as they look at each other, and Ava tells her Brother "There's an abandoned outhouse out back.", as she flicks her bic. Xavier tells his Sister, as he puts the bottle under his desk "Sis, if Leigh's going to lose, and believe me the bitch will, it can't be by fire unless you can leave our family out of your fury." Ava tells him "I told you before I can't make no promises when I'll attack. Adam's Landing may be growing, but it's still a town I'll run into them eventually." Xavier gets a text, and screams "OH SHIT!" Ava gasps "What.." Xavier snarls "Damn if Leigh didn't turn into Jamie! Ryan, remember him?" Ava nods, as Xavier yells "That bastard has hired her for a talk show or some shit, and now she's about to expose us. And take our legacy!" Ava pulls a pistol from her purse, as she coldly answers, as she reaches under the desk for the bottle of liquor and pours a glass and takes a drink "She may have to pay with blood the way she's going. Better warn her because I'm taking care of Aaron's ass!" Xavier rolls his eyes, as they head to Jackson Inc.
At Jackson Inc, Sully and Henry arrives,and Country, and Bobby awaits her inside her Father's office, as Country tells her "I've called Brock, and he's not answering." Sully tells him "Aunt Ciarra's with him actually. She left the Penthouse! Yay for my sweet Aunt." All agree, as Henry tells them "Leigh's in the building." The door opens, as Leigh storms inside, and Bobby looks at her, and asks "So wanna discuss how low on money we can go since you've clearly lost this one to me. I've already called Monica, and Jo's gonna take care of things." Sully is silent, as she gets emotional, and Country hugs her, and goes "Uncle Country's here." Henry also comforts her, as Bobby tells Leigh "Xavier has issued an order that you stay out of this building." Leigh snaps "Exactly where at in the building?" Sully yells "Damnit can't you hear him he said nowhere!" Leigh tells everyone in the room "Go to hell all of you!" Leigh walks up to her Daughter, and looks at Henry, and laughs "And you are just like your Father. And your so called man is a piece of shit." Sully boldly answers "At least I'm not sleeping with my Husband's Sister's former rapist and a first class whore." Leigh storms out, as Bobby tells them "I'm going to my office. Call me if we need to have security discussions." Everyone nods, as Sully and Henry looks at Country, as he tells them "Ava knows, but does Jack know anything?" Sully answers "I've never heard him speak of Aaron." Sully warns them "After the short time Daddy spoke this morning, he's pissed." Country laughs "He and Ava in that ol' Hell Hill study isn't a good sign. And if your Grandma's there." Henry goes "A cool woman Ms. Beth." Sully hugs Henry tightly, as she asks Country "Will you go stay there and relieve Grandma? And try your best to keep them from losing it." Country responds with a warning "I can't promise nothing sweetheart. I can only tell you that they are planning something. And it's huge whatever it is." Sully is quiet, as she sits, and checks her mail on her computer, and gasps, as she tells them "Daddy sent me this from something Brock gave him last night!" Country looks at Henry, and goes "Hope you got your aim perfect, because this will get ugly. This confirms it all!" Sully sits back and sighs "I'm gonna deal with Wade. His Wife, and the whore that sleeps with my Ex, works for me." Sully laughs as Henry and Country both look at each other, as Country heads to Hell Hill, and Henry sits with Sully, and asks "How's Mom doing?" Sully goes "Heard nothing. Considering that good." Henry nods in agreement, and they kiss each other, and Henry sits at the desk, as he goes "Just waiting on the phone to ring."
At The Farm, Frank sits inside the Nursery, as Cale arrives, and asks his Father "Who was the woman here last night?" Frank tells his Son "Randi Miller. She and Bob are Henry Jennings' parents." Cale warns his Father "This doesn't sound good. I did see an abandoned car last night. Did she pull a fast one?" Frank goes "Damn well he had sex." Cale sighs "Dad, don't let another woman come in your life and take advantage of you and your demons you battle. You will always have Aunt Beth, whether or not the two of you are married." Frank agrees, as he feels guilt over the night before.
Meanwhile at City Hospital, Beth walks inside her office, as Barbara and Terrance walks inside and Beth tells them "Olivia's on her way and yes I will donate to adding a new wing to the research center. It's making great strides I've noticed." Terrance tells Beth "This hospital is running smooth." Barbara agrees, and asks them "I want y'all to look at these and tell me if something's off to you." Beth and Terrance look, as Barbara goes "The nurses couldn't read them." Terrance looks at Beth, and Beth asks "And who wrote those scripts Barbara?" Barbara is silent, as Keisha walks inside and tells them "Olivia's training Ginny later today." Beth sighs "I need to spend more time with her. She said she'd be around more." Barbara answers "That's good." Keisha looks at Terrance, as he tells everyone "Keisha and Javon's decided to get married at Mama's house and all are invited." Everyone congratulate Keisha and Terrance, as they accept the invitations.
At The Holiday Hotel, Brock sits with Will and Ciarra, as she tells him of her life in retail, as he's in amazement, and Brock goes "It's a family trait. Own a store." Ciarra smiles, as she reflects "Sullivan's was an amazing store for many years. A real pioneer. Same for Jim's. 15,000 square feet was considered huge once upon a time." Brock and Will listen on. In the Manager's office, Aaron's on the phone, as he calls Jackson Inc, and he goes "I'm looking for Jackson Hale." Jackson Inc.'s receptionist responds "We can't give no info. Company mandate number one." The receptionist hangs up, as Aaron has an idea, and looks up names of members of the Jackson family on his phone, as he goes "Oh wow. Watch out Leigh because I may be dropping you. Getting old for a model."
Wade arrives at HaleCorp, as Jared awaits his Brother, as Wade warns Jared "I know you are sleeping with my Wife Jared. The shit will come back on you!" Jared yells "Maybe if you truly loved your Wife, and your I think teenage son, well I'd tend to them first and she hates living around that evil bitch we have as a Grandmother." Wade yells "Jared, you are the least of my problems. Brock stole some important expansion plans and gave them to his Daddy I bet. I declare war and I'll talk on Rachel's new talk show that's going to be on to expose it." Jared laughs, as he heads to his office "Good luck surviving that. Literally." Jared walks out, with fear in his eyes, as he goes to his office. At City Hospital, Angelica sits in the lab section and goes "I'm here on behalf of my sweet Daughter In Law, and she needs some info. That old flu just been going round." The lab tech goes "Hold on." Angelica smiles.
At Hell Hill, Bree and Jack stands outside, as she sighs with fear "Jack they are really planning something huge. I am even stunned Leigh would do this." Jack tells his Cousin "In a way I can relate with Samantha, J.J. and Mom." Bree quips "Jo looked that over, and called in one of her 'many' favors since she was the Adam's Landing leading judge well over thirty years and still stays involved in some fashion. A great lady and help to me." Jack tells her "I'm headed to Jackson Inc, and see if I find them there, and I'll touch base later." They hug and part ways. At Chase Media, Henry and Country stands outside the doors to the building holding machine guns and ski masks, as they look at each other. Upstairs at Jackson Inc, Sully sits inside her office, as Gracie walks in and tells her Sister "I quit downstairs. What's open?" Sully answers "Bridget's position." Back downstairs at Chase Media, inside Leigh has finished filming a commercial, as Ryan applauds, and goes "Just beautiful. Elegant as one expects Ms. Woods to look." Leigh smiles, and quips "It's natural." Outside, Xavier and Ava arrives, as Xavier tells Henry and Country quietly "Take off the masks now. Now it's time to take care of some business my way." Xavier points to the door, holding his Colt 45, as Ava stands next to her Brother, holding a pistol, as Country and Henry carry machine guns, as they rush inside, and shoots out the glass, as people back up, as Xavier yells "Ok you punk ass little bastard you done pissed off the wrong son of a bitch in Adam's Landing!" Xavier and Ava ask for directions, and heads to the studio, as Ava reminds everyone "Make one call I will clean you dry. Remember the Jackson name in this damn town!" They head to the studio, as they walk inside, and a Xavier fires a shot in the air, as Ryan ducks, as does Leigh, as Ava stands back silently and lights a cigarette, and Xavier aims his Colt 45 at Leigh, and in a drunken tone, asks her "Tell me how to deal with you?" Country and Henry stands behind Xavier and Ava, guns loaded, as Ava aims her pistol at Leigh as well, and Xavier looks at Ryan and goes "And you are officially evicted and I will personally seek to break your empire into small little bits and sell to different people." Leigh yells at her Husband "I can't wait to see you in court. I got my papers this morning." Xavier yells "Good! I can't believe you turned into a whore Leigh!" Ryan tries to defend Leigh, as Leigh attempts to slap Xavier, as Ava aims at her and goes "Touch him and die trash." Country and Henry aims at Ryan, as he backs up, and grows scared, as he attempts to reach for the phone, but Xavier shoots, and goes "Try again and see where the next bullet lands."

Daylight And Darkness: The Next Chapter, Episode 18. When The Thin Line's Crossed
As evening begins to descend upon Adam's Landing, at Hell Hill, in the living room, Sully and Gracie sit as both are silent as Ava's entered Xavier's study, as Ava snaps at her Nephew "Get your ass out of here Brock! You will be playing two sides and I won't put up with it." Brock looks at his Father, as Xavier tells his Son "It's ok." Brock walks out, as Ava warns her Brother "I wouldn't trust your namesake. He does prefer his middle name..." Xavier asks his Sister, growing frustrated "What do you want? Yes she cheated on me." Ava asks "And with who Xavier? Why is everybody keeping it from me. Did Jack sleep with Leigh? Our Brother who has that kinda shadiness to him that he inherits.." Xavier yells "Damnit I don't want to talk about it and leave it alone!" Inside the living room, Beth walks inside, as she tells Sully and Gracie "Well Ava's not going to jail for kidnapping." Brock asks his Grandmother "So why are we keeping this from Aunt Ava? She's gonna find out and go crazy." Beth looks at her Grandson, and answers "Exactly. The longer they stay in that study the more I get worried."
At Chantel's, Aaron sits at the bar, as he awaits Leigh, and orders a drink, as he hears a voice next to him go "Look who returned to town. And Unity had that old electric chair all warmed up for you!" Jo and Bobby walks up, as Aaron eyes turn red, as he snarls "You bitch..." Bobby warns Aaron "One mistake and your ass is back in Prison, but from my understanding so far, you'll be dead before then I bet." Jo asks Aaron "How in the hell can you wake up with knowing what you did to Ava years ago? And now you come back and think we've forgot? I haven't forgotten!" Bobby reminds Jo "We need to leave before Paul gets to your place to discuss some things we have to contain thanks to bastards like this.", pointing to Aaron. Bobby and Jo walks out, as Aaron glares towards them, and has a thought and yells at the bartender "I want the strongest drink here now!"
At Jazz, Rachel sits at the bar, as Wade walks inside as he asks "Gotten some work done I see?" Rachel sits at the bar, and takes a drink, and tells Wade "Tonight I'm waiting for somebody. Since you seem to be here whenever I stop, do you ever see the new man in town, Ryan Chase?" Wade looks over Rachel, before telling her, as his eyes are focused on her chest, as he answers "Rarely." Rachel orders another drink, and sighs, as Wade goes "I heard it. You got some cameras around don't you? I know what you're doing." Rachel laughs "Asshole, I'm not live, that's awaiting the new man that may be a rival for you down the road. You and Xavier will have to get all buddy-buddy.." Wade snaps "After today I'm going to kill that Son of his!" Rachel's eyes widen, and motions for the bartender, going "Give Wade anything he wants." Wade opens up, as Rachel listens intently. At The Holiday Hotel, Bridget sits outside by the fire-pit, as Jared walks out, and asks her with a kiss "And why are we outside. Still a little cold." Bridget asks Jared "Did you know that Leigh's staying near our suite with Mr. Pitts." Jared rolls his eyes, and asks "Recommending you move into my loft with me? Divorcing Wade?" Bridget responds "Yes and no, kinda on the first one." Jared sits next to Bridget, as she tells him "I went down today and it's official. I'm expecting."
Meanwhile at Jack and Samantha's Home at Whispering Hills, Jack arrives with J.J., as Samantha yells to her Husband "Why couldn't I press charges on your Mom? She had no right to break into my car and do her damnedest to turn J.J. against me! I'm sick of this Jack!" Jack yells "You know, I am too! And I think I hear Bree." Samantha quips "Wow, there's Ava's number one supporter. Of course, family protects family here. She needs help Jack!" Bree walks inside, as Samantha shrieks at Bree "Why in the hell didn't you arrest Ava for kidnapping J.J.' Bree asks Samantha "He's here isn't he?" Jack nods, telling his Cousin "Country brought him by before he had to tend to something." Bree rolls her eyes, and warns Samantha "I don't know what Aunt Beth has going on across the road, but this family needs no more stress! And never expect me to lock up the one Aunt that's always been there for me!" Samantha snarls "You don't even deserve the job. I mean Ava..." Bree motions to the door, and tells Samantha "Let us walk outside." Samantha follows Bree outside, as Jack takes a deep breath, and says to himself "If not for that heart transplant, I'd have a drink." Outside, Bree delivers a warning to Samantha, telling her "You are pushing Aunt Ava's limits with this. She took him in first, and he and her share something special.." Samantha snaps "How the hell would you know about kids? You don't have one." Bree gets angry, as she sternly answers "I will be a Mom in the future, and back off of my Aunt. It'd be the best thing to do right now and I mean it. Next time I'll just arrest you. Bree leaves, as she heads home for the evening, as Samantha makes a phone call. Inside, Jack looks into J.J.'s room, as he goes "Dad?" Jack walks inside, as J.J. tells his Father, with tears "I want to be with Grandma. Mom is hurting me." Jack sits, and asks "How is your Mother hurting you Son?" J.J. answers with tears "Keeping me from Grandma. It's hurting her, and she needs me Dad. She needs me." Jack holds his Son, and goes "She does. And she needs me. Know you're always welcomed to see her, and if your Mom has anything to say, she can talk to me. Now rest. Been a hell of a day." J.J. lays down, as Jack tells his Son, turning out the light "Dad loves you." J.J. answers "I love you too. Tell Grandma I love her when you see her again." Jack nods, and walks out, as Samantha asks her Husband "Did you just tell him what I think you did?" Jack quietly and sternly answers "Yes and you stop this. My Mom's been through enough, and she needs us." Samantha tells her Husband "Well you can sleep on the couch Jack. And he's my Son, and I'm his Mother." Jack rolls his eyes, and warns "And I'm his Father and I will fight for him." Samantha slams the bedroom door, as she calls it a night, and Jack calls his Mother, to no answer.
Across the road at Hell Hill, Beth sits inside the living room, as Gracie gets a text, and tells her Grandmother, Brother, and Sister "A friend's returned to town and I'm going down to see him. May spend the night." Beth looks towards Gracie, and asks "Do you have a boyfriend?" Brock asks his Sister "Sure you don't want me to join along?" Gracie boldly tells her Brother "Stay here!" Brock quips "I planned to anyway. Uncle Country is staying here I think.." Sully gets a text from Henry, as she sighs with disgust "Shit. My unwanted guest is home. Time to head back." Beth hugs her Granddaughters, as she warns Gracie "Now don't have sex." Gracie goes "Gram.." Beth then turns to Sully, and tells her "Handle things at home and Ruthie's staying with Aunt Ciarra again tonight." Sully nods "I'm glad. She seemed to have had a better day than the rest of us." Beth smiles "Yes, she did." Gracie and Sully heads out, as Beth looks towards Xavier's study. Inside Xavier's study, Xavier is growing angry, as Ava takes a drink and yells "I'm tired of this silence Xavier. When you get this way, it's gonna be bad. And why do I think I'm somehow a part of this?" Xavier snaps "Can you let this go and let me deal with it?" Ava answers "I can't. Not when everyone keeps saying to talk to you! I know whatever Leigh has done, it's something apparently that'll completely blow my damn fuse.." Xavier looks at his Sister, and tells her "All I can say is my heart is broken after this betrayal, and sis, may just need to leave this to me." Inside the living room, the door opens, as Beth's eyes turn red, and goes "How dare you show up here you whore!" Leigh snaps at her Mother In Law "I came to pack my things. My man is on the porch." Beth takes a deep breath, as she looks towards the study, and turns to Leigh, and tells her "Invite him in. I mean you're moving on. Shouldn't be too ashamed. You've done a good job on that yourself." Aaron walks inside, and asks Beth "So where's her things?" The door to the study opens, as Xavier looks at his Wife, as she holds Aaron's hand, and coldly answers "It's down in the Storm Shelter. Get it, and never come back on my property." Aaron yells at Xavier "You don't own her.." Ava sits inside the study, as she gasps "Is that who I think it.." Ava runs out, as Aaron gasps "Ava..." Ava tells Beth "I'm staying with my Brother, and you go back home." Xavier warns Aaron, as Beth glares at Leigh, as Ava grows silent with rage in her eyes "If I see you again, you are dead you bastard!" Ava slowly walks up to Leigh, and slowly snarls "You low-life whore. I hope you pay for this. Well I know you will!" Leigh and Aaron walks outside, as Beth follows, and yells "Never bring his ass back to this house!" Leigh yells "Beth! This will all be mine soon and can't wait to see the look on all your faces!" Beth goes "Oh yeah, your shit isn't down the hill, look over in the yard." Leigh's belongings are packed and thrown in the yard, as Aaron picks up the boxes, as Leigh warns Beth "I will have a talk show soon, and just wait for what I have to say you bitch." Leigh and Aaron leaves, and Beth walks back inside, as Brock runs downstairs, and Beth tells her Grandson "Go over to my place tonight. I will need to be here instead, and let's not argue about it." Brock hugs his Grandmother, and heads over to her Penthouse. Inside Xavier's Study, Ava looks at her Brother silently, as Xavier looks at his Sister silently, both as a loss of words.
At The Lord Estate, Rachel walks inside, as Roger notices a look on her face, as Roger asks "Well I've sat in front of the TV waiting Rachel?" Rachel takes a deep breath, and goes "Roger, he doesn't do bars, at least not Jazz. I talked to Wade though and got some really good stories, but it could help us get rid of Ryan?" Roger gets up, as he tells Rachel "I already love this! And now for your reward!" Rachel unbuttons her blouse, as she runs upstairs, as Roger chases her, once inside, they take off each other's clothes, as they kiss passionately, as they have sex, and walks over to the bed. At Wade and Bridget's Mansion, Wade returns home, as Angelica sits inside, and asks her Grandson "So anything I need to know besides only Jared, the trash was there." Wade is silent, as he asks his Grandmother "Would you be ok if I decided to kill that little bastard of Xavier's?" Angelica slaps Wade across the face forcefully, and shrieks "Wade Issac Hale I have told you to fire him and he double crossed you didn't he? He seen what you were doing, and the hurt in his family and proved his loyalty to his Father! And from what I overheard today from reliable bedroom sources, it's not going well according to dear Ava's housekeeper." Wade fires back "You are siding with Xavier Grandmother?" Angelica heads to the stairway, and warns Wade "I will remember this one. And you are in charge, and you failed. You will pay. Karma is a bitch. And not all of the time it's me offing one whom disobeys. Sweet dreams." Angelica heads upstairs, as Wade sits down, and is silent, as he calls his Wife, and Bridger's phone goes to voicemail.
At The Holiday Hotel, Bridget and Jared sits outside, in front of the fire-pit, snuggled together, as Bridget tells Jared "I've had enough of Wade's ego. And his constant whining to come back home. I'm sick of his twisted love for Grandmother Satan." Jared holds her tightly, and assures her "I hate her, but I try to stay on her good side, and this could please her." Bridget quips "You know I think you're right, it will." Will walks outside, as he looks at Jared and goes "Aren't you Gracie's infamous Brother In Law?" Bridget rolls her eyes, as Jared goes "I am he. And don't you work for Ryan.." Will answers "Formerly. I quit." Jared looks at Bridget, as Bridget tells Jared, kissing him "I'm going to the suite. I'll be waiting for you." Jared looks at Will, and asks him "So implying that you're wanting to join up at HaleCorp?" Will answers "No. I'm weighing my options and learning this town." Jared tells him, as he gets up to go to his and Bridget's Suite for the night "Welcome, and I'm not as evil as Gracie may say I am. And Xavier does run a great company, but don't hurt someone he loves. Believe me on that one!" Will laughs "Oh yeah. So I have heard from his Daughter." Jared leaves, as he answers a text, as Will says to himself "I can't wait to see you Gracie!"
Meanwhile at Bree's Mansion, Bree walks inside, as Country, Bobby, and Jo talk amongst themselves, as Paul looks at Bree, and warns her "You know who Samantha's related to right?" Bree turns to Paul, and reminds him "And she shot her also and for a time thought to been dead." Jo gasps, as Bobby gets up, and tells Bree "Did the right thing. Don't worry about her fighting back. I will handle anything that comes up." Paul asks his Father "Now aren't you Mayor?" Jo looks at Bobby,
and asks the same thing. Bobby smiles "I would go mad without my law practice." Country, who's buzzed, yells "Took care of some asses haven't we?" Bobby laughs "Hell yeah. One family that's always cared for this city and never failed it." Jo agrees, as she tells them "Well it's late and I think our little plan B is planned." Bree adds "And now I think it's time Paul and I go upstairs." Bree and Paul calls it a night, and asks Bobby "Wanna jar of moonshine Mr. Mayor?" Bobby nods, as they walk on the back porch, and take a drink as Bobby asks Country "How are things at Hell Hill?" Country looks at him, and goes "This is about to get very ugly. Once Ava knows about Aaron, this time I don't think it'll be at the Hunting Club." Bobby takes a double swallow of moonshine, and says to himself "I need to see him tomorrow." Country nods, and goes "It was going downhill when I left."
As night's fallen upon Adam's Landing, at Sully's Mansion, Sully sits in the living room, as Randi walks downstairs and laughs "That's one hell of a crazy family across the woods." Sully snaps "You old bitch that's my family home, and I want to know what you are up to?" You stayed away longer than normal. And I don't know where to?" Randi snaps "None of your damn business where I been, but met my dream lover, Frank Jackson, a racing legend!" Sully gets up, and warns her "Henry won't be able to protect you from my Grandma. She would literally kill for him. Don't recommend testing her, and tomorrow you start on the sales floor at Class. Be there early and Ruthie is training you. One wrong move and I'll be your biggest problem." Sully calls it a night, as Randi looks at the stairway, and laughs "I'm not scared of anybody." At The Holiday Hotel, Gracie knocks on Will's door to his Suite, as he answers, and they kiss, and head to the bed, as they undress each other. At Hell Hill, Beth sits in the living room, as she talks to her Aunt on the phone, as Ciarra asks her Niece "Beth, do you think doing this will be beneficial. This scares me Beth! Remember Tennessee, Frank, and that mobster?" Beth goes "Shit, Leigh is weak. We both know that and she comes back here, I'm kicking that whore's ass until she realizes who runs the show in this family. Leigh won't be taking our legacy." Ciarra goes "Our what?" Beth answers "Emery's, Jim's." Ciarra answers "No she won't." Beth and her Aunt hang up, as Beth looks towards the study. Back at The Holiday Hotel, Leigh stands in the bathroom inside her and Aaron's suite, as she takes a few pills, as Aaron sends a text, saying "All in motion. And it's going to work brilliantly." Back at Hell Hill, inside Xavier's study, Xavier and Ava both have gotten drunk, as they drink another jar of moonshine, as Ava slurs to her Brother "I want to burn them. I want them to burn like that cottage. Like the little place in the Midwest Wade owned." Xavier, sitting back in his chair, as he tries to talk clearly, goes "This isn't like that. But for Aaron, that's another deal. His ass is going to die." Ava yells "Get out the damn glasses and let's toast to making sure they pay dearly for this." Xavier is silent again, as he says out loud to himself "She was my true love. And she sees a problem and this is what she does." Ava goes "So want me to deal with her? Because it's going to happen eventually." Xavier gets up, holding on to his desk to get his balance, as Ava gets up, and they hug, as they both plan vengeance. Inside the living room, Beth looks towards the study, and says to herself "Ruth, I'm about to deal with this your way."
At Chantel's, Aaron sits at the bar, as he awaits Leigh, and orders a drink, as he hears a voice next to him go "Look who returned to town. And Unity had that old electric chair all warmed up for you!" Jo and Bobby walks up, as Aaron eyes turn red, as he snarls "You bitch..." Bobby warns Aaron "One mistake and your ass is back in Prison, but from my understanding so far, you'll be dead before then I bet."

Bobby reminds Jo "We need to leave before Paul gets to your place to discuss some things we have to contain thanks to bastards like this.", pointing to Aaron. Bobby and Jo walks out, as Aaron glares towards them, and has a thought and yells at the bartender "I want the strongest drink here now!"

Outside, Bree delivers a warning to Samantha, telling her "You are pushing Aunt Ava's limits with this. She took him in first, and he and her share something special.." Samantha snaps "How the hell would you know about kids? You don't have one." Bree gets angry, as she sternly answers "I will be a Mom in the future, and back off of my Aunt. It'd be the best thing to do right now and I mean it. Next time I'll just arrest you. Bree leaves, as she heads home for the evening, as Samantha makes a phone call. Inside, Jack looks into J.J.'s room, as he goes "Dad?" Jack walks inside, as J.J. tells his Father, with tears "I want to be with Grandma. Mom is hurting me." Jack sits, and asks "How is your Mother hurting you Son?" J.J. answers with tears "Keeping me from Grandma. It's hurting her, and she needs me Dad. She needs me." Jack holds his Son, and goes "She does. And she needs me. Know you're always welcomed to see her, and if your Mom has anything to say, she can talk to me. Now rest. Been a hell of a day." J.J. lays down, as Jack tells his Son, turning out the light "Dad loves you." J.J. answers "I love you too. Tell Grandma I love her when you see her again." Jack nods, and walks out, as Samantha asks her Husband "Did you just tell him what I think you did?" Jack quietly and sternly answers "Yes and you stop this. My Mom's been through enough, and she needs us." Samantha tells her Husband "Well you can sleep on the couch Jack. And he's my Son, and I'm his Mother." Jack rolls his eyes, and warns "And I'm his Father and I will fight for him." Samantha slams the bedroom door, as she calls it a night, and Jack calls his Mother, to no answer.
Across the road at Hell Hill, Beth sits inside the living room, as Gracie gets a text, and tells her Grandmother, Brother, and Sister "A friend's returned to town and I'm going down to see him. May spend the night." Beth looks towards Gracie, and asks "Do you have a boyfriend?" Brock asks his Sister "Sure you don't want me to join along?" Gracie boldly tells her Brother "Stay here!" Brock quips "I planned to anyway. Uncle Country is staying here I think.." Sully gets a text from Henry, as she sighs with disgust "Shit. My unwanted guest is home. Time to head back." Beth hugs her Granddaughters, as she warns Gracie "Now don't have sex." Gracie goes "Gram.." Beth then turns to Sully, and tells her "Handle things at home and Ruthie's staying with Aunt Ciarra again tonight." Sully nods "I'm glad. She seemed to have had a better day than the rest of us." Beth smiles "Yes, she did." Gracie and Sully heads out, as Beth looks towards Xavier's study. Inside Xavier's study, Xavier is growing angry, as Ava takes a drink and yells "I'm tired of this silence Xavier. When you get this way, it's gonna be bad. And why do I think I'm somehow a part of this?" Xavier snaps "Can you let this go and let me deal with it?" Ava answers "I can't. Not when everyone keeps saying to talk to you! I know whatever Leigh has done, it's something apparently that'll completely blow my damn fuse.." Xavier looks at his Sister, and tells her "All I can say is my heart is broken after this betrayal, and sis, may just need to leave this to me." Inside the living room, the door opens, as Beth's eyes turn red, and goes "How dare you show up here you whore!" Leigh snaps at her Mother In Law "I came to pack my things. My man is on the porch." Beth takes a deep breath, as she looks towards the study, and turns to Leigh, and tells her "Invite him in. I mean you're moving on. Shouldn't be too ashamed. You've done a good job on that yourself." Aaron walks inside, and asks Beth "So where's her things?" The door to the study opens, as Xavier looks at his Wife, as she holds Aaron's hand, and coldly answers "It's down in the Storm Shelter. Get it, and never come back on my property." Aaron yells at Xavier "You don't own her.." Ava sits inside the study, as she gasps "Is that who I think it.." Ava runs out, as Aaron gasps "Ava..." Ava tells Beth "I'm staying with my Brother, and you go back home." Xavier warns Aaron, as Beth glares at Leigh, as Ava grows silent with rage in her eyes "If I see you again, you are dead you bastard!" Ava slowly walks up to Leigh, and slowly snarls "You low-life whore. I hope you pay for this. Well I know you will!" Leigh and Aaron walks outside, as Beth follows, and yells "Never bring his ass back to this house!" Leigh yells "Beth! This will all be mine soon and can't wait to see the look on all your faces!" Beth goes "Oh yeah, your shit isn't down the hill, look over in the yard." Leigh's belongings are packed and thrown in the yard, as Aaron picks up the boxes, as Leigh warns Beth "I will have a talk show soon, and just wait for what I have to say you bitch." Leigh and Aaron leaves, and Beth walks back inside, as Brock runs downstairs, and Beth tells her Grandson "Go over to my place tonight. I will need to be here instead, and let's not argue about it." Brock hugs his Grandmother, and heads over to her Penthouse. Inside Xavier's Study, Ava looks at her Brother silently, as Xavier looks at his Sister silently, both as a loss of words.
At The Lord Estate, Rachel walks inside, as Roger notices a look on her face, as Roger asks "Well I've sat in front of the TV waiting Rachel?" Rachel takes a deep breath, and goes "Roger, he doesn't do bars, at least not Jazz. I talked to Wade though and got some really good stories, but it could help us get rid of Ryan?" Roger gets up, as he tells Rachel "I already love this! And now for your reward!" Rachel unbuttons her blouse, as she runs upstairs, as Roger chases her, once inside, they take off each other's clothes, as they kiss passionately, as they have sex, and walks over to the bed. At Wade and Bridget's Mansion, Wade returns home, as Angelica sits inside, and asks her Grandson "So anything I need to know besides only Jared, the trash was there." Wade is silent, as he asks his Grandmother "Would you be ok if I decided to kill that little bastard of Xavier's?" Angelica slaps Wade across the face forcefully, and shrieks "Wade Issac Hale I have told you to fire him and he double crossed you didn't he? He seen what you were doing, and the hurt in his family and proved his loyalty to his Father! And from what I overheard today from reliable bedroom sources, it's not going well according to dear Ava's housekeeper." Wade fires back "You are siding with Xavier Grandmother?" Angelica heads to the stairway, and warns Wade "I will remember this one. And you are in charge, and you failed. You will pay. Karma is a bitch. And not all of the time it's me offing one whom disobeys. Sweet dreams." Angelica heads upstairs, as Wade sits down, and is silent, as he calls his Wife, and Bridger's phone goes to voicemail.
At The Holiday Hotel, Bridget and Jared sits outside, in front of the fire-pit, snuggled together, as Bridget tells Jared "I've had enough of Wade's ego. And his constant whining to come back home. I'm sick of his twisted love for Grandmother Satan." Jared holds her tightly, and assures her "I hate her, but I try to stay on her good side, and this could please her." Bridget quips "You know I think you're right, it will." Will walks outside, as he looks at Jared and goes "Aren't you Gracie's infamous Brother In Law?" Bridget rolls her eyes, as Jared goes "I am he. And don't you work for Ryan.." Will answers "Formerly. I quit." Jared looks at Bridget, as Bridget tells Jared, kissing him "I'm going to the suite. I'll be waiting for you." Jared looks at Will, and asks him "So implying that you're wanting to join up at HaleCorp?" Will answers "No. I'm weighing my options and learning this town." Jared tells him, as he gets up to go to his and Bridget's Suite for the night "Welcome, and I'm not as evil as Gracie may say I am. And Xavier does run a great company, but don't hurt someone he loves. Believe me on that one!" Will laughs "Oh yeah. So I have heard from his Daughter." Jared leaves, as he answers a text, as Will says to himself "I can't wait to see you Gracie!"
Meanwhile at Bree's Mansion, Bree walks inside, as Country, Bobby, and Jo talk amongst themselves, as Paul looks at Bree, and warns her "You know who Samantha's related to right?" Bree turns to Paul, and reminds him "And she shot her also and for a time thought to been dead." Jo gasps, as Bobby gets up, and tells Bree "Did the right thing. Don't worry about her fighting back. I will handle anything that comes up." Paul asks his Father "Now aren't you Mayor?" Jo looks at Bobby,
and asks the same thing. Bobby smiles "I would go mad without my law practice." Country, who's buzzed, yells "Took care of some asses haven't we?" Bobby laughs "Hell yeah. One family that's always cared for this city and never failed it." Jo agrees, as she tells them "Well it's late and I think our little plan B is planned." Bree adds "And now I think it's time Paul and I go upstairs." Bree and Paul calls it a night, and asks Bobby "Wanna jar of moonshine Mr. Mayor?" Bobby nods, as they walk on the back porch, and take a drink as Bobby asks Country "How are things at Hell Hill?" Country looks at him, and goes "This is about to get very ugly. Once Ava knows about Aaron, this time I don't think it'll be at the Hunting Club." Bobby takes a double swallow of moonshine, and says to himself "I need to see him tomorrow." Country nods, and goes "It was going downhill when I left."
As night's fallen upon Adam's Landing, at Sully's Mansion, Sully sits in the living room, as Randi walks downstairs and laughs "That's one hell of a crazy family across the woods." Sully snaps "You old bitch that's my family home, and I want to know what you are up to?" You stayed away longer than normal. And I don't know where to?" Randi snaps "None of your damn business where I been, but met my dream lover, Frank Jackson, a racing legend!" Sully gets up, and warns her "Henry won't be able to protect you from my Grandma. She would literally kill for him. Don't recommend testing her, and tomorrow you start on the sales floor at Class. Be there early and Ruthie is training you. One wrong move and I'll be your biggest problem." Sully calls it a night, as Randi looks at the stairway, and laughs "I'm not scared of anybody." At The Holiday Hotel, Gracie knocks on Will's door to his Suite, as he answers, and they kiss, and head to the bed, as they undress each other. At Hell Hill, Beth sits in the living room, as she talks to her Aunt on the phone, as Ciarra asks her Niece "Beth, do you think doing this will be beneficial. This scares me Beth! Remember Tennessee, Frank, and that mobster?" Beth goes "Shit, Leigh is weak. We both know that and she comes back here, I'm kicking that whore's ass until she realizes who runs the show in this family. Leigh won't be taking our legacy." Ciarra goes "Our what?" Beth answers "Emery's, Jim's." Ciarra answers "No she won't." Beth and her Aunt hang up, as Beth looks towards the study. Back at The Holiday Hotel, Leigh stands in the bathroom inside her and Aaron's suite, as she takes a few pills, as Aaron sends a text, saying "All in motion. And it's going to work brilliantly." Back at Hell Hill, inside Xavier's study, Xavier and Ava both have gotten drunk, as they drink another jar of moonshine, as Ava slurs to her Brother "I want to burn them. I want them to burn like that cottage. Like the little place in the Midwest Wade owned." Xavier, sitting back in his chair, as he tries to talk clearly, goes "This isn't like that. But for Aaron, that's another deal. His ass is going to die." Ava yells "Get out the damn glasses and let's toast to making sure they pay dearly for this." Xavier is silent again, as he says out loud to himself "She was my true love. And she sees a problem and this is what she does." Ava goes "So want me to deal with her? Because it's going to happen eventually." Xavier gets up, holding on to his desk to get his balance, as Ava gets up, and they hug, as they both plan vengeance. Inside the living room, Beth looks towards the study, and says to herself "Ruth, I'm about to deal with this your way."
Daylight And Darkness: The Next Chapter, Episode 17. Change Of Command
At the ALPD, Bree sits inside her office, as Ava walks inside, and asks her Niece "Where's Country? I've got to find Xavier." Bree sits back, and has a flashback (Country calls Bree as she drives to work and goes "She will need to deal with this one herself. But best from Xavier." Bree answers as Gracie and Sully has done prior, in telling her Aunt "Call Xavier and ask him.." Ava yells "I've done that and straight to voicemail. I have called Beth and same with her. I've even called Leigh and same thing." Bree takes a deep breath, as she assures her "Aunt Ava you'll know something soon. I think our family company is safe however." Ava asks "What are you keeping from me? Did Leigh cheat on my Brother?" Bree nods, as she goes "That much I'd think you'd figure out from last night." Ava nods, and goes "So who is the bastard she had sex with in my Mama and Daddy's bedroom then?" Bree sighs "Once again.." Ava storms out, as Bree rolls her eyes, and says loudly "Shit's about to hit the fan I fear. AGAIN!" Outside, Ava lights a cigarette, as she quips "Back to Hell Hill and see if he's there. I'm going to find out something!"
At Jackson Inc., Leigh tells her Daughter boldly "It's over between X and I Sully. All of you are grown and deal with it. I think Aaron Pitts is a changed man. Yes he has a new last name." Sully snarls "I never want to see your face again Leigh." Leigh shrieks "I am your MOTHER!" Sully screams back with tears in her eyes "My true Mom is my Grandma Beth! She was my role model! This is low. And you want me to support you when you just probably just destroyed my Daddy who raised me and devoted his time to me." Leigh snaps "And don't forget his Daughter Millie.." Sully screams "Get the hell out of this office right now." Leigh storms out, with rage in her eyes, as Sully looks out of the window, and thinks of her Father, as she calls Xavier to no answer. At Hell Hill, Henry and Country stands downstairs, as Beth walks out of the study, and tells them "Find my Grandchildren and bring them all here. I mean all of them. Family meeting." Country nods, as he tells Henry "We need to get moving. This isn't looking good. Seen this too many times and this feels strange." Beth walks into Xavier's study, and asks her Son "So what are you watching?" Xavier cries, as Beth walks over, and her eyes widen, and Beth smiles, as she feels hope, and tells her Son gently "He really took a risk." Xavier smiles "My Son loves me. And I'm a proud man. Look at them." Gracie waves to the phone, as she hangs up, not telling her Brother of calling their Father, as Xavier knows what Brock as done." At The Holiday Hotel, Gracie tells her Brother "We need to get back to the house. Gram's summoned us." Brock takes a deep breath, as Gracie assures him "Gram wants all of us. You know what this usually means if she's calling orders." Gracie and Brock head to Hell Hill.
At Lord Media, Rachel sits inside her office, as Aretha walks inside, and asks Rachel "So would you like some scoop." Roger also walks in a few seconds after, and goes "I would!" Rachel asks Aretha "And what do you know?" Aretha tells them of her visit earlier with Ryan, as Roger gives Aretha a high five, as does Rachel, as she quips "Little boy thinks he's going to be riding into our damn city and buy us out and kick us off to the curb so he can be the king of media." Roger laughs in a sarcastic tone "Ryan Chase is close to getting knocked off if he doesn't back off Xavier!" Rachel nods in agreement, as she warns Aretha "He's really moving fast. And we're about to create a scandal. And since you're here, you can cover it. I'm seducing him and then post it live online. Hired someone with computer knowledge to fix the Adam's Landing News, so watch out primetime!" Aretha looks at them with shock, as she is blown away, and asks "Exactly how close are the two of you?" Roger quips "If we can make money, and hurt him someway, then he learns one important lesson if you're gonna live and compete here." Rachel quips "I've got something that'll turn him on." Rachel laughs "I'm going to make him scream for me in agony and I'll love every moment. And in comes the cash for all of us, and he is done." Aretha tells Rachel "Well looks like all of us, except Ryan's going to win now for sure!" Meanwhile Ryan returns to his office at Chase Media, as someone awaits him, and snaps "Ok you son of a bitch. I need to get something off my chest!" Ryan is in shock.
Meanwhile at City Hospital, Allison sits inside the waiting area, as she texts her Mother, to no answer, as Bridget walks inside, and Allison asks Wade's Wife "What are you doing here?" Bridget laughs "None of your damn business Allison. I'm above you." Allison asks "Why are you such a bitch?" Bridget and Allison sits on opposite sides of the room, as they glare at each other, as Olivia and Ginny walks into the area, and Olivia yells "Ally!" Bridget runs to the door, yelling "I'm important! I run Class Dr. Sullivan!" Olivia snaps back at Bridget, with her hand on her Granddaughter "And you can wait like normal people." Olivia, Ginny, and Allison walks into a room, as the OBGYN walks inside to check Allison, as Olivia asks Ginny "Want your first test?" Ginny goes "What do you mean?" Olivia tells her Granddaughter "Tell that bitch outside to come to the other room. And give her a test, and I'll stay in here and confirm it. Here's your shot baby." Ginny hugs her Grandmother, as Ally yells "Stay tough with her!" The OBGYN walks inside, and tells Olivia "Barbara's calling an emergency staff meeting among leaders today. Terrance confirmed." Olivia grows quiet, as Allison looks at the OBGYN, and asks "Could that wait?" The OBGYN answers "Allison, this is something serious I've been told from Barbara herself." Olivia rolls her eyes and goes "Likely that I've been working from Southpoint Beach more than here." Allison yells "Can we finish!" They start the ultrasound. Inside Bridget's room, Bridget warns Ginny "I'll tell someone that will kill you about this if you screw up!" The test gets started.
At Jackson Inc., Cale arrives, as Jack has called him there instead, as Cale asks Jack "So where is everyone?" Jack tells his Cousin "Everyone's looking for Uncle Xavier." Cale rolls his eyes, and says to himself "Add another missing in action to the show also." Jack tells him "I don't know what's going on, but seems most worrisome is Uncle Xavier." Cale asks his Cousin, as he goes "Have you forgot my Dad is still recovering from a heart operation that nearly killed him?" Jack pulls out the forms, as he takes a deep breath, as Cale signs contracts. At The Farm, Frank lays in bed, as he sighs with satisfaction "That was nice. Really damn nice." Randi, in only a t-shirt, walks into the bedroom, as she seductively tells him "Enjoy your day off sir. I'm going to thank you all day for taking me in." Frank smiles, as she gets on the bed, and they have sex.
Back at Hell Hill, Beth walks around the house, as Sully arrives, and asks her Grandmother "Where's Daddy?" Beth tells her Granddaughter "He's in his study. Where's Brock and Gracie?" Sully assures "They're on their way Grandma." In Xavier's study, Xavier is silent, as he has another flashback to finding Leigh alive after years of believing she was murdered; and takes another drink, as he fights his emotions. Down the hill, Country and Henry stands inside the Storm Shelter, as Henry walks around and asks Country "Is this where Beth wants Leigh and that man she's screwing?" Country nods, and laughs "Hell yes. She's plotting too. And.." Country checks his phone, as he turns to Henry, and warns "Ava's on her way here. Ava will lose her mind when she learns." Henry asks Country "Of course she'll be angry, but will she lose her mind?" Country slowly goes "Aaron Pittman is not a name you say to Ava, and if she knows he's in town, and sleeping with Leigh..." Henry laughs "Then we'll get invited to another bonfire! Country and Henry walks up the hill to the main house, as he goes "It'll be different than a bonfire. That much I can promise."
As Ava drives to Hell Hill, she spots Samantha, as she drives to Adam's Landing International Airport with J.J., as she takes him to board his flight to a group home in the Midwest. Ava blocks her, as she jumps out of her car, and Samantha takes a deep breath, and tells J.J., as he tells his Mother "I want to see my Grandma Mom!" Ava walks over, as Samantha refuses to unlock her SUV, and keeps the windows locked as well, as Ava walks over to her car, and grabs a crowbar from the back, as she snaps "Not taking him anywhere." Samantha sends an urgent text to her Husband, as Jack sits in his office at Jackson Inc., as Javon arrives and tells him "Everything set on our first location." Jack takes a deep breath, as he looks at Javon, and tells him "My Mom's about to put me where Uncle Xavier is the way it looks." Back on the roadside, Ava screams at her Daughter In Law "Bitch I told you to let me see my Grandson, or I'll break every damn window on this damn SUV. You are really pushing it! Open the damn door!" At the ALPD, Paul walks inside, as he asks Bree "Who's going out to arrest your Aunt? She's attacking Samantha." Bree looks at her fiancé, and tells him "Call Bobby. And let's head out there. Cale has said Uncle Frank's missing as well." They head out. Back on the roadside, Samantha ducks for cover, as Ava yells "Next swing's for the damn window!" J.J. pleads with his Mother inside "Please let me see my Grandma. Stop upsetting her. I don't like you!" J.J. yells at his Mother, as Ava yells at him "Take cover and I'm getting you out!" Ava walks over to the door behind the passenger's side, and smashes out the window with the crowbar, as Samantha screams to her Son "NO!" Ava reaches and unlocks J.J.'s door, as he gets out, and Samantha warns her "The ALPD's on their way." Ava and J.J. heads over to her car, as Ava snaps at Samantha "And my Niece will put your high and mighty ass in your place keeping my sweet Grandson from me!" Ava and J.J. drive to Hell Hill, as Samantha calls Jack again, this time to voicemail.
Back at Chase Media, in the lobby, Leigh sits, as the receptionist asks her "So Ryan's said you could wait for him in the back lobby. He has a meeting currently going on." Leigh walks into the back, as she sends a text to Aaron, who sits in their suite at The Holiday Hotel, and watches Ryan's talk show, as he hears Ava's name. Back at Chase Media, inside Ryan's office, Ryan shrieks "You wasted your savings to fly down here and tell me this? What in the hell is wrong with you?" Will Brooks, Ryan's Assistant, tells him "I said I am done. I quit and this town is promising with Lord Media and The Exposer. There's always Jackson Inc. Ryan warns Will "Doing this will be bad for you. I will make you regret it deeply." Will laughs "Yeah. I know you very well. So watch out there because I wouldn't mind sleeping with Rachel and telling her some things." Will walks out, as Leigh walks into Ryan's office, and asks "So still interested in my offer?" Ryan nods, as he pulls out a contract. At The Exposer, Aretha sits in her office, as Bobby walks inside, and asks Aretha "So have you already heard about last night?" Aretha nods, and answers "Only one in this town to worry about printing it and you would know the little bastard as Jo's Son." At Lord Media, Rachel sits inside her office, as Roger tells Rachel "Carver will bring you the stuff you need. And anything else you need to know?" Rachel smiles "Yeah. Do you think we will pull this off because he's...umm" Roger is silent, and takes a deep breath, and reminds her "Try the X on him like with Xavier years ago." Rachel fumes, as Roger leaves, and Rachel makes a phone call.
At The Farm, Cale arrives, as he knocks on his Father's door, and yells "You in there Dad?" Inside, Frank and Randi has sex, as he's turned off his phone. Cale walks around the house, and hears them, as he takes a deep sigh of relief, and returns to FJR. At City Hospital, Bridget sits at the information desk, as she walks up and asks Willie, who now volunteers at the hospital "I want my results now! Tell that young doctor wannabe I want accurate.." Willie gets up, and quietly warns Bridget "One more outburst and your ass will be thrown out of here. Not gonna sit and listen to your whiny ass all afternoon. So sit down and I'll make sure when the results are in, I'll page this entire damn hospital!" Bridget huffs, and sits down and rubs her stomach." Meanwhile in Olivia's office, Olivia and Allison are inside, as Allison tells her Mother "The meeting was short." Olivia sighs "Barbara wants to open a new wing on the research center. Now we need the money. But once word gets to Beth, she'll give a nice donation." Allison tells her Mother "My Daughter's now working here, and here I am expecting. Do you have any advice on any possible outcomes?" Olivia quips "Ally, if you're talking about Desi and I, she was much younger than me and spoiled. She was very favored, but Daddy and I are and still very close and he's doing well, so I'll be back in town more." Allison hugs her Mother, as Olivia has a look of fear in her eyes.
At Chase Media, Ryan and Leigh discuss ideas, as she tells him "I would love to be a judge on a reality show on modeling." Ryan smiles "You can be a star again and not Xavier Jackson's doormat." Leigh agrees, and smiles "I am now with the one I want to be with." At Hell Hill, Gracie and Brock arrives, and they sit inside the living room with their Sister, as Sully looks towards Xavier's study, and goes "Grandma's in there, and remember what we've vowed if Aunt Ava pops up. She's likely to show up." Gracie goes "I should've stayed instead of coming over here. I can't believe Mom would do that to Dad, and us." Beth walks out of the study, and tells her Grandchildren "Things have changed and I'm taking control of this family and your Mother will pay deeply for hurting my Son and your Father." Beth pulls out a pistol, as Brock also pulls out a pistol, and tells his Grandmother "Damn right she's going to pay for this. I owe one to my Dad." Brock walks into the study, as Beth takes a deep breath, and looks at Sully and Gracie, and warns "He's not up for reunions right now.." Brock stands in the study, as Xavier faces the vault, and takes a drink, as he slurs "And who is it? And make it fast and get out." Brock goes "Dad. I've got something for you." Xavier turns to his Son, as Brock hands over a zip-drive, as Xavier looks at it, and Brock tells his Father "I will pay my debt back for causing this to happen. It's my fault." Xavier looks at Brock, and goes "In a way....it is your fault. But you are forgiven Son. And you've now proven your true loyalty." Xavier starts to cry, as he and his Son hugs tightly. In the living room, Sully tells her Grandmother and Sister "I've disowned Mom, and I am trying to figure out how to tell Ruthie and Cain. I can't believe my Mom would do this." Gracie gets emotional, as Sully hugs her Sister, and Beth peeks into the vault, as Xavier hugs his Son, as they both cry, and Beth pulls out her pistol, and walks outside. Once outside, Bree pulls up, as Ava yells at Henry, as Country and J.J. has walked to the creek "I want to see my damn Brother! And I have no problem taking this damn crowbar to your head Henry!" Bree yells "Aunt Ava! Samantha is wanting to press charges, and Jack is fighting it. Calm down.." Beth walks over, as she looks at everyone, as Bree asks her Aunt "Exactly what kind of meeting's going on?" Ava asks the same, and Beth tells Ava "You don't want to know. And trust me on that." Ava looks at Bree, as she takes a deep breath and silent as Ava looks at them coldly, and goes "I'm going to see Xavier, and don't follow me." Ava walks inside.
At Jackson Inc., Leigh tells her Daughter boldly "It's over between X and I Sully. All of you are grown and deal with it. I think Aaron Pitts is a changed man. Yes he has a new last name." Sully snarls "I never want to see your face again Leigh." Leigh shrieks "I am your MOTHER!" Sully screams back with tears in her eyes "My true Mom is my Grandma Beth! She was my role model! This is low. And you want me to support you when you just probably just destroyed my Daddy who raised me and devoted his time to me." Leigh snaps "And don't forget his Daughter Millie.." Sully screams "Get the hell out of this office right now." Leigh storms out, with rage in her eyes, as Sully looks out of the window, and thinks of her Father, as she calls Xavier to no answer. At Hell Hill, Henry and Country stands downstairs, as Beth walks out of the study, and tells them "Find my Grandchildren and bring them all here. I mean all of them. Family meeting." Country nods, as he tells Henry "We need to get moving. This isn't looking good. Seen this too many times and this feels strange." Beth walks into Xavier's study, and asks her Son "So what are you watching?" Xavier cries, as Beth walks over, and her eyes widen, and Beth smiles, as she feels hope, and tells her Son gently "He really took a risk." Xavier smiles "My Son loves me. And I'm a proud man. Look at them." Gracie waves to the phone, as she hangs up, not telling her Brother of calling their Father, as Xavier knows what Brock as done." At The Holiday Hotel, Gracie tells her Brother "We need to get back to the house. Gram's summoned us." Brock takes a deep breath, as Gracie assures him "Gram wants all of us. You know what this usually means if she's calling orders." Gracie and Brock head to Hell Hill.

I need to get something off my chest!" Ryan is in shock.
Meanwhile at City Hospital, Allison sits inside the waiting area, as she texts her Mother, to no answer, as Bridget walks inside, and Allison asks Wade's Wife "What are you doing here?" Bridget laughs "None of your damn business Allison. I'm above you." Allison asks "Why are you such a bitch?" Bridget and Allison sits on opposite sides of the room, as they glare at each other, as Olivia and Ginny walks into the area, and Olivia yells "Ally!" Bridget runs to the door, yelling "I'm important! I run Class Dr. Sullivan!" Olivia snaps back at Bridget, with her hand on her Granddaughter "And you can wait like normal people." Olivia, Ginny, and Allison walks into a room, as the OBGYN walks inside to check Allison, as Olivia asks Ginny "Want your first test?" Ginny goes "What do you mean?" Olivia tells her Granddaughter "Tell that bitch outside to come to the other room. And give her a test, and I'll stay in here and confirm it. Here's your shot baby." Ginny hugs her Grandmother, as Ally yells "Stay tough with her!" The OBGYN walks inside, and tells Olivia "Barbara's calling an emergency staff meeting among leaders today. Terrance confirmed." Olivia grows quiet, as Allison looks at the OBGYN, and asks "Could that wait?" The OBGYN answers "Allison, this is something serious I've been told from Barbara herself." Olivia rolls her eyes and goes "Likely that I've been working from Southpoint Beach more than here." Allison yells "Can we finish!" They start the ultrasound. Inside Bridget's room, Bridget warns Ginny "I'll tell someone that will kill you about this if you screw up!" The test gets started.
At Jackson Inc., Cale arrives, as Jack has called him there instead, as Cale asks Jack "So where is everyone?" Jack tells his Cousin "Everyone's looking for Uncle Xavier." Cale rolls his eyes, and says to himself "Add another missing in action to the show also." Jack tells him "I don't know what's going on, but seems most worrisome is Uncle Xavier." Cale asks his Cousin, as he goes "Have you forgot my Dad is still recovering from a heart operation that nearly killed him?" Jack pulls out the forms, as he takes a deep breath, as Cale signs contracts. At The Farm, Frank lays in bed, as he sighs with satisfaction "That was nice. Really damn nice." Randi, in only a t-shirt, walks into the bedroom, as she seductively tells him "Enjoy your day off sir. I'm going to thank you all day for taking me in." Frank smiles, as she gets on the bed, and they have sex.
Back at Hell Hill, Beth walks around the house, as Sully arrives, and asks her Grandmother "Where's Daddy?" Beth tells her Granddaughter "He's in his study. Where's Brock and Gracie?" Sully assures "They're on their way Grandma." In Xavier's study, Xavier is silent, as he has another flashback to finding Leigh alive after years of believing she was murdered; and takes another drink, as he fights his emotions. Down the hill, Country and Henry stands inside the Storm Shelter, as Henry walks around and asks Country "Is this where Beth wants Leigh and that man she's screwing?" Country nods, and laughs "Hell yes. She's plotting too. And.." Country checks his phone, as he turns to Henry, and warns "Ava's on her way here. Ava will lose her mind when she learns." Henry asks Country "Of course she'll be angry, but will she lose her mind?" Country slowly goes "Aaron Pittman is not a name you say to Ava, and if she knows he's in town, and sleeping with Leigh..." Henry laughs "Then we'll get invited to another bonfire! Country and Henry walks up the hill to the main house, as he goes "It'll be different than a bonfire. That much I can promise."
As Ava drives to Hell Hill, she spots Samantha, as she drives to Adam's Landing International Airport with J.J., as she takes him to board his flight to a group home in the Midwest. Ava blocks her, as she jumps out of her car, and Samantha takes a deep breath, and tells J.J., as he tells his Mother "I want to see my Grandma Mom!" Ava walks over, as Samantha refuses to unlock her SUV, and keeps the windows locked as well, as Ava walks over to her car, and grabs a crowbar from the back, as she snaps "Not taking him anywhere." Samantha sends an urgent text to her Husband, as Jack sits in his office at Jackson Inc., as Javon arrives and tells him "Everything set on our first location." Jack takes a deep breath, as he looks at Javon, and tells him "My Mom's about to put me where Uncle Xavier is the way it looks." Back on the roadside, Ava screams at her Daughter In Law "Bitch I told you to let me see my Grandson, or I'll break every damn window on this damn SUV. You are really pushing it! Open the damn door!" At the ALPD, Paul walks inside, as he asks Bree "Who's going out to arrest your Aunt? She's attacking Samantha." Bree looks at her fiancé, and tells him "Call Bobby. And let's head out there. Cale has said Uncle Frank's missing as well." They head out. Back on the roadside, Samantha ducks for cover, as Ava yells "Next swing's for the damn window!" J.J. pleads with his Mother inside "Please let me see my Grandma. Stop upsetting her. I don't like you!" J.J. yells at his Mother, as Ava yells at him "Take cover and I'm getting you out!" Ava walks over to the door behind the passenger's side, and smashes out the window with the crowbar, as Samantha screams to her Son "NO!" Ava reaches and unlocks J.J.'s door, as he gets out, and Samantha warns her "The ALPD's on their way." Ava and J.J. heads over to her car, as Ava snaps at Samantha "And my Niece will put your high and mighty ass in your place keeping my sweet Grandson from me!" Ava and J.J. drive to Hell Hill, as Samantha calls Jack again, this time to voicemail.
Back at Chase Media, in the lobby, Leigh sits, as the receptionist asks her "So Ryan's said you could wait for him in the back lobby. He has a meeting currently going on." Leigh walks into the back, as she sends a text to Aaron, who sits in their suite at The Holiday Hotel, and watches Ryan's talk show, as he hears Ava's name. Back at Chase Media, inside Ryan's office, Ryan shrieks "You wasted your savings to fly down here and tell me this? What in the hell is wrong with you?" Will Brooks, Ryan's Assistant, tells him "I said I am done. I quit and this town is promising with Lord Media and The Exposer. There's always Jackson Inc. Ryan warns Will "Doing this will be bad for you. I will make you regret it deeply." Will laughs "Yeah. I know you very well. So watch out there because I wouldn't mind sleeping with Rachel and telling her some things." Will walks out, as Leigh walks into Ryan's office, and asks "So still interested in my offer?" Ryan nods, as he pulls out a contract. At The Exposer, Aretha sits in her office, as Bobby walks inside, and asks Aretha "So have you already heard about last night?" Aretha nods, and answers "Only one in this town to worry about printing it and you would know the little bastard as Jo's Son." At Lord Media, Rachel sits inside her office, as Roger tells Rachel "Carver will bring you the stuff you need. And anything else you need to know?" Rachel smiles "Yeah. Do you think we will pull this off because he's...umm" Roger is silent, and takes a deep breath, and reminds her "Try the X on him like with Xavier years ago." Rachel fumes, as Roger leaves, and Rachel makes a phone call.
At The Farm, Cale arrives, as he knocks on his Father's door, and yells "You in there Dad?" Inside, Frank and Randi has sex, as he's turned off his phone. Cale walks around the house, and hears them, as he takes a deep sigh of relief, and returns to FJR. At City Hospital, Bridget sits at the information desk, as she walks up and asks Willie, who now volunteers at the hospital "I want my results now! Tell that young doctor wannabe I want accurate.." Willie gets up, and quietly warns Bridget "One more outburst and your ass will be thrown out of here. Not gonna sit and listen to your whiny ass all afternoon. So sit down and I'll make sure when the results are in, I'll page this entire damn hospital!" Bridget huffs, and sits down and rubs her stomach." Meanwhile in Olivia's office, Olivia and Allison are inside, as Allison tells her Mother "The meeting was short." Olivia sighs "Barbara wants to open a new wing on the research center. Now we need the money. But once word gets to Beth, she'll give a nice donation." Allison tells her Mother "My Daughter's now working here, and here I am expecting. Do you have any advice on any possible outcomes?" Olivia quips "Ally, if you're talking about Desi and I, she was much younger than me and spoiled. She was very favored, but Daddy and I are and still very close and he's doing well, so I'll be back in town more." Allison hugs her Mother, as Olivia has a look of fear in her eyes.
At Chase Media, Ryan and Leigh discuss ideas, as she tells him "I would love to be a judge on a reality show on modeling." Ryan smiles "You can be a star again and not Xavier Jackson's doormat." Leigh agrees, and smiles "I am now with the one I want to be with." At Hell Hill, Gracie and Brock arrives, and they sit inside the living room with their Sister, as Sully looks towards Xavier's study, and goes "Grandma's in there, and remember what we've vowed if Aunt Ava pops up. She's likely to show up." Gracie goes "I should've stayed instead of coming over here. I can't believe Mom would do that to Dad, and us." Beth walks out of the study, and tells her Grandchildren "Things have changed and I'm taking control of this family and your Mother will pay deeply for hurting my Son and your Father." Beth pulls out a pistol, as Brock also pulls out a pistol, and tells his Grandmother "Damn right she's going to pay for this. I owe one to my Dad." Brock walks into the study, as Beth takes a deep breath, and looks at Sully and Gracie, and warns "He's not up for reunions right now.." Brock stands in the study, as Xavier faces the vault, and takes a drink, as he slurs "And who is it? And make it fast and get out." Brock goes "Dad. I've got something for you." Xavier turns to his Son, as Brock hands over a zip-drive, as Xavier looks at it, and Brock tells his Father "I will pay my debt back for causing this to happen. It's my fault." Xavier looks at Brock, and goes "In a way....it is your fault. But you are forgiven Son. And you've now proven your true loyalty." Xavier starts to cry, as he and his Son hugs tightly. In the living room, Sully tells her Grandmother and Sister "I've disowned Mom, and I am trying to figure out how to tell Ruthie and Cain. I can't believe my Mom would do this." Gracie gets emotional, as Sully hugs her Sister, and Beth peeks into the vault, as Xavier hugs his Son, as they both cry, and Beth pulls out her pistol, and walks outside. Once outside, Bree pulls up, as Ava yells at Henry, as Country and J.J. has walked to the creek "I want to see my damn Brother! And I have no problem taking this damn crowbar to your head Henry!" Bree yells "Aunt Ava! Samantha is wanting to press charges, and Jack is fighting it. Calm down.." Beth walks over, as she looks at everyone, as Bree asks her Aunt "Exactly what kind of meeting's going on?" Ava asks the same, and Beth tells Ava "You don't want to know. And trust me on that." Ava looks at Bree, as she takes a deep breath and silent as Ava looks at them coldly, and goes "I'm going to see Xavier, and don't follow me." Ava walks inside.

Daylight And Darkness: The Next Chapter, Episode 16. Road To Destruction
It's the next morning, as Ava knocks on the door at Hell Hill, and Gracie slowly opens, a she gasps and goes Why are you here?" Ava answers "You didn't return and I wanted to check on things. You disappeared and Country and I had some drinks but never told me about why he was there." Gracie is silent, fighting emotions, as Ava asks her Niece "What happened? Talk to your Auntie Ava.." Gracie goes "Best from Dad." Ava tells Gracie "Well I'm going to Jackson Inc., so maybe Xavier and I can chat and I don't like what I'm feeling.." Ava leaves, as Gracie has a flashback to the night before, and cries uncontrollably as her phone rings.
At Beth and Ciarra's Penthouse, Beth is awake, and rolls joints, as Ruthie walks in the living room and gasps "Gram!" Beth sighs to her Great-Granddaughter "Now you know I do this. And I know you could use one since you work for that bitch Bridget." Ruthie asks "How did you know I..." Beth smiles "See what I found when going through my little stash? Now I know Aunt Ciarra doesn't smoke. Who else could it'd been?" Ruthie sighs "I do. I smoke with Henry but Mom doesn't know." Beth smiles "Well this will just be our little thing we'll have in common then sweetie. And I think you could use some today anyway." Ruthie goes, as she notices her Great-Grandmother's demeanor "And what exactly happened? You came home late?" At Sully's Mansion, Sully walks into the living room, as Henry pours himself and Xavier a glass of liquor, as Henry tells Xavier "I've called Country." Sully asks her Father, as he's silent, and looks out of the back window "How are you Daddy?" Xavier answers in a dead tone "How? All these years and I've never done this to her but loved her. And she does this.." Sully tells him "Daddy just stay here and be around Henry and Country. Introduce him to Randi if she shows up." Henry snarls "Sully.." Sully tells her Father, as she kisses him and hugs him "I will handle things at the office. Take it easy please and you call me if you need to talk. I'm open all day to you." Xavier nods, as he and Henry walks out on the back deck, as they each drink a glass of liquor, and goes "That Leigh is a real hypocrite." Xavier stares forward, as he takes a drink, and is silent, with his heart broken.
At The Sunset Club, Ryan and his Mother, Jo has breakfast, as Ryan tells his Mother "Can I have Xavier arrested for doing that?" referring to the night prior. Jo tells her Son "Ryan you are growing too big for your britches around here and I think I warned you before returning this isn't going to work for you." Ryan asks "Why so negative Mama? I am making things the best for me. And you." Jo answers "The first part. Me. You should be wiser than to think I can't see what's going on." Ryan looks at his watch, and asks with frustration "And tell me Mama, anything else I do that leaves you unimpressed?" Jo responds "Your damn ego. Chase and I were successful and didn't need one. You humble yourself Mr. Hot Shot before you get into a war you don't want. And I won't get involved because you asked for it. Now I'm off and away. And bring your head back down to earth Ryan." Jo leaves, as Ryan is silent and Rachel walks over, and goes "Well my assumption would've been right. Well same for Roger, my old man." Ryan snaps at Rachel "You are an opportunist whore that knows nothing about being in media!" Rachel laughs "But I have sex with him often. Sometimes at the office, or anywhere we can find. And I had that photo first, but knew better than trying to post that. Leigh could've been visiting Brock." Ryan yells "I took the damn photo and she's cheating on Xavier Jackson! He just cost me millions of dollars!" Rachel goes "Be glad he didn't kill you. And if Leigh cheated on him, then it will be a goldmine for Lord Media, the part of Lord Incorporated I operate Ryan. And no vacancies at our tower downtown if Xavier evicts you. He is unpredictable." Rachel walks away, as Ryan sends a text, and says to himself "Rachel if you only knew."
Meanwhile at The Holiday Hotel, In Aaron's Suite, Leigh looks at Aaron, and asks him, as she thinks of the night before "Did you really rape Ava?" Aaron answers "No I'd never Leigh. That's an old lie. That family lives a damn lie. Always acting close while one plans to kill another. B.R. Jackson did almost kill me over that." Leigh goes "Are you saying you did?" Aaron goes "Look yes and it's where it needs to stay. Jackson Hale is my Son. I would like to know him." Leigh sighs "He called Winston 'Dad', sorry." Aaron sighs "I intend to know him someway." Leigh sighs as she reads her phone "Sully wants to see me. I don't want to go but I figured Beth would run tell her Son like she does." Aaron tells her "Soon you'll be divorced, and out of that crowd and we will have a life for ourselves." Leigh tells Aaron "You're moving too fast. Slow down and plan some backup ideas because this isn't going to be good for me, and if Beth hasn't.." Leigh rushes out, as Aaron takes a deep breath, and gets on his phone, and types "Samantha Hale."
At HaleCorp, Brock walks inside, and unlocks the door to Wade's office, as he walks inside, and gets into his computer, and begins to get into Foodstar's sales reports and secrets, as he's silent, with fight in his eyes. At Wade and Bridget's Mansion, Wade sits inside the living room as he prepares to head to HaleCorp, as Angelica walks downstairs and smiles "My favorite Grandson. I'll be making appearances today. Hope you got Xavier's Son out of the company. Or else you choose who I'll eliminate." Wade yells "Grandmother my Wife doesn't live here and I am running that damn company while you spread your evil all over the world." Angelica answers her Grandson "I'm glad that whore isn't in this home and she's my preferred choice." Wade asks, with concern "So are you planning to kill if I don't fire Brock?" Angelica heads to the door, and smiles, as she pulls out her gun "If your choice to hire Brock backfires, then you and Jared will either pay with death or make a choice on who dies." Angelica leaves, as Wade screams in frustration, as he heads to HaleCorp.
Meanwhile back at Beth and Ciarra's Penthouse, Ruthie sits back, as Beth goes "Oh those were the days I loved. Me, Mama, Allan, sitting around passing a joint and enjoying each other. At least she got to meet you. And she'd get a kick out of this. We'd be having a party right now." Ruthie laughs, as her Great-Grandmother looks at the clock, and asks "Wanna work? Or play hooky?' Ruthie sits back, and goes "I'd rather sit here and hang with you Gram." Beth smiles, as she laughs "If Bridget calls bitching, just hand the phone to me." Beth and her Great-Granddaughter walks into the kitchen, as she asks "Hungry?" Ruthie nods as they make a late breakfast.
At Chase Media Group, Gracie arrives, as Ryan laughs "So I heard the big news. Had someone watching Hell Hill isn't it?" Gracie looks at him, and warns him "You just made the worst mistake of your life you cocky bastard!" Ryan goes "And are you gonna run tell Daddy like during our little meeting?" Gracie slaps Ryan, and walks to the elevator, as she yells "Screw you Ryan! And yeah, I'm about to warn him. And better start packing up you piece of shit!" The door closes, as Gracie goes upstairs with anger in her eyes. Inside Jackson Inc., Ava walks into Xavier's office, as Sully sits inside, and tells her Aunt "Want to go over to FJR and discuss contracts with Cale for the season? Daddy planned to it seems according to his calendar." Ava, with worry, asks Sully with a serious tone "What is going on Sully? What happened last night?" Sully looks up, and takes a deep breath, and sighs "Aunt Ava I need you to visit FJR, and check our sales reports for Emery's." Ava asks again "What happened Sully?" Sully tells her Aunt "Find Daddy and talk to him. He's at my place." Ava goes "Well Jack and Javon can handle this, I'm seeing Xavier." Ava leaves, as Sully takes a deep breath, as Gracie walks inside, and yells "Daddy!!!" Sully turns around and answers "He knows Gracie. And he's staying with me. Go see him." Gracie warns "Ryan.." Sully quickly tells her Sister "I got him. Go see Daddy!" Gracie heads out, as she worries for her Father, as Sully sits back in her Father's seat, and her hands clenched in fists awaiting Leigh's arrival.
At Sully's Mansion, Country sits inside with Henry, as Henry asks Country "So what's wrong with him? He's been outside this entire time, with the bottle and not a word." Country asks Henry "Looks like you and I may have to clean some space in that ol storm shelter over yonder." Henry nods his head, and asks "So we're about to see his other side appear? Who will we have to kill for Xavier?" Country laughs "Shit, he's pretty damn capable of doing it himself. But X is plotting. He's quiet, and staying here. He never stays anywhere except either Hell Hill or Blue Ridge." Henry looks at Country, as he quips "Hell this I think is the first time he's ever stayed here overnight or visited." Country goes "X stays to himself. That's his genius and why he controls Adam's Landing." Outside, Xavier has thrown the glass into the yard, as he now drinks from the liquor bottle, and has a flashback to his Grandmother, as he hears Tenny's voice say "You and Leigh have the Sullivan Love. It will never break." Xavier's eyes are in tears, as he fights his emotions, and takes another drink, and tries not to break down. Country walks outside, and yells "Alright there X?" Xavier looks up, and with his voice breaking, tells Country "Tell Henry to get ready. We're about to teach that bitch something about disrespecting my damn family home." Xavier gets up, as he storms through the house and yells at Henry "Come on!" Xavier, Country, and Henry heads to Hell Hill.
At Class, Jared walks inside, as Bridget asks Jared "Where's your Daughter?" Jared responds "I don't know. She told me she was staying with her Gram.." Bridget asks "That'd be Beth?" Jared answers sternly "You know this Bridget." Bridget sighs "Yeah. Just got some things going on in my mind right now." Jared asks "Exactly what kind of things?" Bridget looks at Jared. At HaleCorp, Wade walks inside, as he walks into his office, as Brock sits at his desk, and sits back with a smile, as he asks Wade "Let's play a game.." Wade snaps "No time for damn games. You are fired! I mean it now!" Brock is quiet, as he gets up and shrugs "No problem Wade. I'll have all your problems solved real, and I mean, REAL soon." Brock walks out, and tells Wade as he leaves "It's just started bastard." Wade sits at his desk, and opens a drawer, as rage shows in his eyes.
Meanwhile at Lord Media Inc.'s office in Downtown Adam's Landing, Rachel walks inside, as Roger and Carver awaits, and Roger tells her "It's time to test Ryan." Rachel is taken back, as she notices a look in Roger's eye, as he winks. At Chantel's Ryan walks inside, as Aretha sits at a table, as Willie sits alongside her Daughter, as Ryan smiles, and goes "Well hello there ladies..." Willie snaps "Ok just cut the damn act because I see this act you're playing" Ryan glares at Willie, as Aretha tells him "Wanted you to know I spoke to my family and I will not be selling The Exposer to you. I'm keeping it." Ryan asks "So that means it's gonna sell one day huh?" Willie snaps, as Aretha tries to control her Mother, as Willie gets enraged "Damnit boy my Daughter said she's keeping it and she spoke to ME! Her Mama! She does something apparently you don't! Poor Jo. She's such a sweet woman. How in the hell did she get a selfish ass Son like you. Thank GOD she had two more!" Ryan gets up and leaves, as Aretha laughs "Coward." Ryan turns around, and asks "Um, excuse me Aretha?" Aretha warns "You aren't making friends. Always a good idea to consider, and next time we are at a press briefing, stay the hell away from me." Ryan leaves, as he huffs, and Willie laughs "That's my girl! Taught his ass!" Aretha quips "Learned from the best Mama." Outside, Ryan makes a phone call, and rushes to his office downstairs at Jackson Inc.
At Jackson Inc., Sully sits inside Xavier's office, as she works intensely, awaiting her Mother, as Jack stands inside, and asks his Cousin again, as she is now silent "What are you plotting Sully? What's going on because my Mom's off to find Uncle Xavier.." Sully yells "Get Javon, and go take care of those contracts! I wanna be alone!" Jack sighs "Well I'm here..." Sully aims at the door, as Jack walks out, as he takes a deep breath, and calls his Mother, but to no answer. At Sully's Mansion, Ava arrives, as she finds the doors locked, and says to herself "Whatever in the hell is going on is bad. I know it.." At The Holiday Hotel, Gracie arrives, as Brock awaits his Sister, and asks "Where is he?" Gracie tells her twin Brother "I don't see the bastard Little X." Brock takes a deep breath, as Gracie goes "Oh shut up. He comes downstairs, we're kicking his ass, and taking him to Dad!" Brock nods in agreement, as they await Aaron, who's at The Inn, and orders a beer. At Hell Hill, Xavier is downstairs, as Beth walks inside, and hugs her Son, as he cries, and Beth is silent and consoles her Son, as Henry and Country walks downstairs, carrying Leigh's belongings. Henry asks Xavier "What about the rest of the house? You said anything that made you think of her.." Xavier looks around, as he walks over to their photo together when they married over 30 years ago, and pulls it down, and breaks it, and screams "This home is ruined! Damn that bitch! DAMN HER!!" Country hugs his best friend, as Henry looks at Beth, and asks, as he pulls a joint from his pocket, and points to the door "So Leigh slept with his rival years ago too huh? I was in Prison with him for a short time while he was being transferred overseas." Beth nods, as she snarls "Nothing but a sorry grade A whore. That bitch will now stay in my book after this, and damnit a Mother keeps a promise!" They walks outside, back at Jackson Inc., Sully is inside her office, as the door opens and Leigh walks inside, and goes "Ok I assume I know who's side you are on?" And really I don't want to talk about this. I didn't know.." Sully sits turned from her Mother, as rage fills her eyes, and she fights back tears, as she hurts for his Father, as she gets up, and walks towards her Mom slowly, and Leigh tries to open her arms to her Daughter, and Sully delivers a backhanded slap to her Mother's face, as she spits with anger "And I don't believe a damn word you whore. My Mom's a whore. No.." Sully screams with pain, as she breaks down, and Leigh stands back, with guilt in her eyes, and regret.
At Beth and Ciarra's Penthouse, Beth is awake, and rolls joints, as Ruthie walks in the living room and gasps "Gram!" Beth sighs to her Great-Granddaughter "Now you know I do this. And I know you could use one since you work for that bitch Bridget." Ruthie asks "How did you know I..." Beth smiles "See what I found when going through my little stash? Now I know Aunt Ciarra doesn't smoke. Who else could it'd been?" Ruthie sighs "I do. I smoke with Henry but Mom doesn't know." Beth smiles "Well this will just be our little thing we'll have in common then sweetie. And I think you could use some today anyway." Ruthie goes, as she notices her Great-Grandmother's demeanor "And what exactly happened? You came home late?" At Sully's Mansion, Sully walks into the living room, as Henry pours himself and Xavier a glass of liquor, as Henry tells Xavier "I've called Country." Sully asks her Father, as he's silent, and looks out of the back window "How are you Daddy?" Xavier answers in a dead tone "How? All these years and I've never done this to her but loved her. And she does this.." Sully tells him "Daddy just stay here and be around Henry and Country. Introduce him to Randi if she shows up." Henry snarls "Sully.." Sully tells her Father, as she kisses him and hugs him "I will handle things at the office. Take it easy please and you call me if you need to talk. I'm open all day to you." Xavier nods, as he and Henry walks out on the back deck, as they each drink a glass of liquor, and goes "That Leigh is a real hypocrite."

Beth and her Great-Granddaughter walks into the kitchen, as she asks "Hungry?" Ruthie nods as they make a late breakfast.
At Chase Media Group, Gracie arrives, as Ryan laughs "So I heard the big news. Had someone watching Hell Hill isn't it?" Gracie looks at him, and warns him "You just made the worst mistake of your life you cocky bastard!" Ryan goes "And are you gonna run tell Daddy like during our little meeting?" Gracie slaps Ryan, and walks to the elevator, as she yells "Screw you Ryan! And yeah, I'm about to warn him. And better start packing up you piece of shit!" The door closes, as Gracie goes upstairs with anger in her eyes. Inside Jackson Inc., Ava walks into Xavier's office, as Sully sits inside, and tells her Aunt "Want to go over to FJR and discuss contracts with Cale for the season? Daddy planned to it seems according to his calendar." Ava, with worry, asks Sully with a serious tone "What is going on Sully? What happened last night?" Sully looks up, and takes a deep breath, and sighs "Aunt Ava I need you to visit FJR, and check our sales reports for Emery's." Ava asks again "What happened Sully?" Sully tells her Aunt "Find Daddy and talk to him. He's at my place." Ava goes "Well Jack and Javon can handle this, I'm seeing Xavier." Ava leaves, as Sully takes a deep breath, as Gracie walks inside, and yells "Daddy!!!" Sully turns around and answers "He knows Gracie. And he's staying with me. Go see him." Gracie warns "Ryan.." Sully quickly tells her Sister "I got him. Go see Daddy!" Gracie heads out, as she worries for her Father, as Sully sits back in her Father's seat, and her hands clenched in fists awaiting Leigh's arrival.
At Sully's Mansion, Country sits inside with Henry, as Henry asks Country "So what's wrong with him? He's been outside this entire time, with the bottle and not a word." Country asks Henry "Looks like you and I may have to clean some space in that ol storm shelter over yonder." Henry nods his head, and asks "So we're about to see his other side appear? Who will we have to kill for Xavier?" Country laughs "Shit, he's pretty damn capable of doing it himself. But X is plotting. He's quiet, and staying here. He never stays anywhere except either Hell Hill or Blue Ridge." Henry looks at Country, as he quips "Hell this I think is the first time he's ever stayed here overnight or visited." Country goes "X stays to himself. That's his genius and why he controls Adam's Landing." Outside, Xavier has thrown the glass into the yard, as he now drinks from the liquor bottle, and has a flashback to his Grandmother, as he hears Tenny's voice say "You and Leigh have the Sullivan Love. It will never break." Xavier's eyes are in tears, as he fights his emotions, and takes another drink, and tries not to break down. Country walks outside, and yells "Alright there X?" Xavier looks up, and with his voice breaking, tells Country "Tell Henry to get ready. We're about to teach that bitch something about disrespecting my damn family home." Xavier gets up, as he storms through the house and yells at Henry "Come on!" Xavier, Country, and Henry heads to Hell Hill.
At Class, Jared walks inside, as Bridget asks Jared "Where's your Daughter?" Jared responds "I don't know. She told me she was staying with her Gram.." Bridget asks "That'd be Beth?" Jared answers sternly "You know this Bridget." Bridget sighs "Yeah. Just got some things going on in my mind right now." Jared asks "Exactly what kind of things?" Bridget looks at Jared. At HaleCorp, Wade walks inside, as he walks into his office, as Brock sits at his desk, and sits back with a smile, as he asks Wade "Let's play a game.." Wade snaps "No time for damn games. You are fired! I mean it now!" Brock is quiet, as he gets up and shrugs "No problem Wade. I'll have all your problems solved real, and I mean, REAL soon." Brock walks out, and tells Wade as he leaves "It's just started bastard." Wade sits at his desk, and opens a drawer, as rage shows in his eyes.
Meanwhile at Lord Media Inc.'s office in Downtown Adam's Landing, Rachel walks inside, as Roger and Carver awaits, and Roger tells her "It's time to test Ryan." Rachel is taken back, as she notices a look in Roger's eye, as he winks. At Chantel's Ryan walks inside, as Aretha sits at a table, as Willie sits alongside her Daughter, as Ryan smiles, and goes "Well hello there ladies..." Willie snaps "Ok just cut the damn act because I see this act you're playing" Ryan glares at Willie, as Aretha tells him "Wanted you to know I spoke to my family and I will not be selling The Exposer to you. I'm keeping it." Ryan asks "So that means it's gonna sell one day huh?" Willie snaps, as Aretha tries to control her Mother, as Willie gets enraged "Damnit boy my Daughter said she's keeping it and she spoke to ME! Her Mama! She does something apparently you don't! Poor Jo. She's such a sweet woman. How in the hell did she get a selfish ass Son like you. Thank GOD she had two more!" Ryan gets up and leaves, as Aretha laughs "Coward." Ryan turns around, and asks "Um, excuse me Aretha?" Aretha warns "You aren't making friends. Always a good idea to consider, and next time we are at a press briefing, stay the hell away from me." Ryan leaves, as he huffs, and Willie laughs "That's my girl! Taught his ass!" Aretha quips "Learned from the best Mama." Outside, Ryan makes a phone call, and rushes to his office downstairs at Jackson Inc.
At Jackson Inc., Sully sits inside Xavier's office, as she works intensely, awaiting her Mother, as Jack stands inside, and asks his Cousin again, as she is now silent "What are you plotting Sully? What's going on because my Mom's off to find Uncle Xavier.." Sully yells "Get Javon, and go take care of those contracts! I wanna be alone!" Jack sighs "Well I'm here..." Sully aims at the door, as Jack walks out, as he takes a deep breath, and calls his Mother, but to no answer. At Sully's Mansion, Ava arrives, as she finds the doors locked, and says to herself "Whatever in the hell is going on is bad. I know it.." At The Holiday Hotel, Gracie arrives, as Brock awaits his Sister, and asks "Where is he?" Gracie tells her twin Brother "I don't see the bastard Little X." Brock takes a deep breath, as Gracie goes "Oh shut up. He comes downstairs, we're kicking his ass, and taking him to Dad!" Brock nods in agreement, as they await Aaron, who's at The Inn, and orders a beer. At Hell Hill, Xavier is downstairs, as Beth walks inside, and hugs her Son, as he cries, and Beth is silent and consoles her Son, as Henry and Country walks downstairs, carrying Leigh's belongings. Henry asks Xavier "What about the rest of the house? You said anything that made you think of her.." Xavier looks around, as he walks over to their photo together when they married over 30 years ago, and pulls it down, and breaks it, and screams "This home is ruined! Damn that bitch! DAMN HER!!" Country hugs his best friend, as Henry looks at Beth, and asks, as he pulls a joint from his pocket, and points to the door "So Leigh slept with his rival years ago too huh? I was in Prison with him for a short time while he was being transferred overseas." Beth nods, as she snarls "Nothing but a sorry grade A whore. That bitch will now stay in my book after this, and damnit a Mother keeps a promise!" They walks outside, back at Jackson Inc., Sully is inside her office, as the door opens and Leigh walks inside, and goes "Ok I assume I know who's side you are on?" And really I don't want to talk about this. I didn't know.." Sully sits turned from her Mother, as rage fills her eyes, and she fights back tears, as she hurts for his Father, as she gets up, and walks towards her Mom slowly, and Leigh tries to open her arms to her Daughter, and Sully delivers a backhanded slap to her Mother's face, as she spits with anger "And I don't believe a damn word you whore. My Mom's a whore. No.." Sully screams with pain, as she breaks down, and Leigh stands back, with guilt in her eyes, and regret.
Daylight And Darkness: The Next Chapter, Episode 15. After The Bitter Cold: Part 3. The Final Straw
At The Farm, Frank sits in his chair, as there's a knock at the door, and answers, as he asks "May I help you?" At Jackson Inc, Xavier sits in his office, as evening falls upon Adam's Landing, alone, with questions inside his head, as he makes a phone call and goes "Meet me at The Sunset Club. Private Room." At Hell Hill, Beth hears her Daughter In Law inside her bedroom, as she lays in her bed with a man, as they've had sex, and Leigh pounces, and goes "Let's go another round." Outside Xavier and Leigh's Bedroom, Beth's eyes turn red with rage, and pulls out her pistol, debating her next move.
Across the road at Whispering Hills, Gracie arrives, as she hears yelling in the study, as Ava yells at Jack "Tell your Wife to back the hell off boy or else!" Jack yells "Damnit Mom I am on your side. I don't want to pick sides!" Gracie is silent, as she makes a phone call to Sully, as she and Henry are in bed, and Sully tells him "Javon's taking care of things and we don't get to do this much my bad boy." Henry grins, as they kiss, as they lay in bed next to each other and watch a movie, and feed each other ice cream. Back at Whispering Hills, Jack walks out of the study, and tells Gracie "Mom needs help maybe you can convince her." Gracie goes "Too many of my own cuz." Jack walks out with frustration in his eyes, as Ava asks her Niece, in a slurred tone "So wanna get out of here? Here's my keys. Let's go to Jazz." There's a knock at the door, as Gracie answers and Bree stands on the other side, as Ava hugs her tightly and tells her Niece "Congratulations!" Bree goes "How did you hear? You weren't there." Ava quips "Beth sent me a text. I had to fight my Daughter In Law this afternoon, and my Son is, well damn whipped." Gracie turns the other way, as Bree tells her Aunt "They want what's best for you. As do I, but I know you, and just wish you'd moderate and come around more." Ava sighs "I'm sorry. I'll try because I plan to spoil your child when he or she is born." Bree hugs her Aunt, and tells her Cousin "Gracie watch out for her." Gracie glares at Bree, as she returns home, and Ava asks Gracie "Do you have a problem with her?" Gracie answers "No. I need to call my Brother though." Ava yells "Go outside. I don't wanna hear about that backstabbing twin Brother you sadly have!" Gracie rolls her eyes, as Ava walks over to the bar, and pours a glass of whiskey.
At Jazz, Cale and Allison arrives, as Wade sits alone, and Allison asks "And where's your Wife?" Wade tells his Cousin's Wife "Lay off Allison!" Cale asks Wade "So tell me more about this shit with Brock?" Wade continues, as Allison tells him "He is my Aunt Beth's Grandson, Xavier's Son, and he's just taking time before he leaves you hanging." Wade gets a text meanwhile from Brock, saying "At Holiday Hotel, aka home. You're paying and if not then you know the deal." Cale asks Wade "So what was that about?" Wade quickly answers "Just Jared telling me he's leaving the office." Cale and Allison look at each other, and rolls their eyes, as they aren't buying it. At The Holiday Hotel, Bridget arrives at the bar, as Angelica appears, and Bridget snarls "Oh no. Not the devil herself to make her little threats she loves to do." Angelica laughs "I mean each one too. Now wanna talk since we're alone or shall I call Wade?" Bridget pays the bartender, and warns her "The reason Wade and I aren't living together is because of you. And seeing Xavier Jackson was enough for today!" Angelica asks "Ahh? Did he visit you? Was it cordial? Or did you make a common mistake you and your trash family are known for?" Bridget takes a deep breath, and snaps "You need to leave." Angelica smiles "Just know that Ruthie is also my Great-Granddaughter. She's a Hale. And you will show her respect or you pay with blood. That's a Santiago oath bitch." Angelica leaves, as Jared arrives, and Bridget looks at Jared, and tells him, as she gives him a kiss "Let's go upstairs and make everything ok baby?" Jared pays Bridget's tab, as they head to the suite they are sharing.
Meanwhile at The Evans Home, Aretha sits inside the living room, as Terrance, Javon, and Keisha arrive, as Willie tells them "What a little celebration! Should have seen the one in Southpoint Beach!" Aretha is distant, as Terrance asks his Sister "What's up Aretha? Rashad won. And here you are acting all weird. Back with that thug again? "Javon and Keisha are silent, as Willie asks her Daughter "What's wrong with you?" Aretha tells her family "Ryan Chase has made me a huge offer to sale The Exposer to him." Willie's eyes widen, as does Terrance. Javon asks his Aunt "Would you still run it if you sale?" Aretha sighs "I have to retire for ten years before I can come back. He's concerning me more than Rachel. She let me know when she called." Willie snarks "Rachel is growing a brain! I'll be damned." Terrance tells his Sister, as Javon and Keisha chimes in "Keep this in our family. It's an African-American owned media corporation you founded when you left the evening news at 24.." Aretha warns "Hang on now Terrance. One let's not mention age please. Secondly, I'm not selling it anyway. He's done ruined Adam's Landing News, and Rachel warned me about her and Roger's visit." Willie tells her Daughter "Keeping it is wise. And Rashad has a fallback plan for the future." Aretha reminds her Mother "He has that now with racing. But maybe for Javon and Keisha, this could be my gift to the two of you. I'll give both of you 25% and when or if I die, it's yours." Terrance tells his Son "Accept!" Javon and Keisha hug Aretha, as she tells them "I can't wait for the wedding." Willie heads upstairs, as Terrance follows his Mother.
At Beth and Ciarra's Penthouse, Ciarra, Ruthie, and Precious sits in the living room, as they play jazz records, and Ruthie asks her Great-Aunt "Let's play Uncle Allan's music?" Ciarra goes "I'm not into that. Beth plays it enough in this place and Precious and I prefer the standards. There's a knock at the door, as Ruthie answers, and Brock stands on the other side, and Ruthie looks at her Uncle, and goes "Grandpa might pop up. He tends to do that." Brock walks in, as Ciarra also warns her Great-Nephew "Xavier is still angry with you and you need to make up with him or you could be dead." Brock goes "That's what I'm going to do. I've lost my Father's respect because of Wade, and I'm going to double cross him!" Ruthie reminds him "My Dad also works there." Ciarra is silent, as Brock answers "Ruthie, let's not go there." Ciarra asks Brock "Need some cash?" Ruthie rolls her eyes, as Ciarra pulls out a stack of $100 dollar bills, and tells him "Call me next time before you pop up." Brock and Ciarra hug, as he leaves, and Ruthie looks at her Great-Aunt, as she sternly goes "And you keep your mouth shut. He's doing the right thing now!"
Back at The Farm, Frank sits in the living room, asking "So you walked all the way here and left with nothing?" Randi goes "Yes. I'm homeless." Frank who doesn't know her, adds "And your Husband left you and took everything? And you have nobody?" Randi cries, and Frank tells her "Now I have made a special pact that only one woman that's not my Nieces or Sister are allowed to stay here, but in this case I can make an exception." Randi gets on her knees and thanks Frank and asks "Do you have anything to drink by chance." Frank answers "Some shine I don't drink since my operation on my heart." Randi heads to the kitchen, as Frank takes a deep breath, and turns around, and looks her over.
At Hell Hill, Beth enters the former nursery, and glances through a crack in the door, with pistol in hand, as Leigh and the man continue to have sex. Beth glares intently and says in her head "Oh shit I don't believe this. I can't let this.." Beth kicks open the door, and Leigh and the man jumps as Leigh yells at her Mother In Law "The nerve you have.." Beth aims her pistol at Leigh, and asks "Which should I kill first. I don't believe this!" Leigh yells "I'm moving on and living here whether you like it or not!" Beth snaps back angrily "After this? Shit! No, you just met your worst enemy you whore. Oh my God.." Beth walks back and forth, as the man puts on his pants, and attempts to exit, as Beth stops, and goes "Are you who I think.." The man is silent, as Beth glares towards Leigh, and turns off the safety, and goes "This is the worst thing imaginable Leigh. The worst. No way in hell can you come back from this one, and in this home. Oh no there.." On the highway, as he drives back to Hell Hill, Xavier gets a text from his Mother, as he turns over, and he sits back for a second, and is silent, with shock in his eyes, as he can't move and gets emotional.
Back at Sully's Mansion, Henry walks in the kitchen, following Sully and she goes "We're just getting some more ice cream and then back up to bed. I am the boss." Henry, as Sully only wears a T-shirt, smiles "Oh yes." Sully tells Henry "Back to the bed now!" Henry heads upstairs as he gets a text from his Mother, and yells "Yes!" Sully asks "She's not coming back?" Henry goes "She's staying at a motel Sully. We have this night just to us!" Sully yells "My prayers are answered. I hope." As they walk back into the bedroom, Henry reminds Sully "I'm not throwing her out in the street." Sully asks Henry "I know she's old and worn, but can she work?" Henry gasps "Sully....she would be really offended." Sully quips "Well baby, if she's going to live here, then I plan to hire her to work at Class. And that can be called rent. But she will know what I expect and I got a plane ticket saved with her name on it to anywhere. At The Farm, Randi sits inside the living room, as she asks "So you knew Bob Jennings?" Frank nods, and goes "A hell of a mechanic. He worked for me in the 70s when I won my first championship and he and his friend William started an auto dealership in the Midwest. They sponsor my team when we run once a year at Blue Ridge." Randi cries "He died and I lost everything..." Frank begins to feel sadness for Randi, and she opens up to him, as Frank's eyes are locked on Randi, and studying her intensely.
At Bree's Mansion, Bree returns, as she asks Paul "Where's my Dad?" Paul tells his fiancée" Xavier made a phone call. Actually I'm wrong, Beth made it." Bree is quiet, as she tells Paul, putting her arms around him "My life is perfect now. I have you, and we'll raise Summer's boys, and our little bundle of joy and build a legacy together and break my family's dark past." Paul tells her, kissing her "You've done awesome. Our future is very bright baby." They head to the bedroom. At Whispering Hills, Ava sits inside the kitchen, as Gracie goes "Finished with a little recipe Aunt Ciarra taught me years ago." Ava quips "When its like this I feel so happy. You are so much like Sully. I need to spend more time with her outside the office, and Ruthie I hear is having problems with Bridget." Gracie hands a cup to her Aunt, as Ava takes a sip, and asks "Ice creamed coffee? And orange flavored?" Gracie smiles, as Ava goes "Gracie, this could have some potential beyond just a family secret. And after reading my email from Javon, perfect for ThriftQuik!" There's a knock at the door, as Ava gets up to answer, and Country stands on the other end, as Ava asks "What are you doing here?" Country walks inside, as Gracie greets him with a hug, and asks "Staying with Ava? Is she sharing the liquor?" Ava snaps "Go your ass to the bar and drink something and why are you here tonight?" Country answers "Xavier and Beth ordered it." Ava asks "Is it because of Jack?" Country answers "Another reason. And his Wife is a prissy little bitch now isn't she?" Ava quips "Oh yes she is!" Gracie grows concerned, as Ava walks over and pours herself a drink, as Gracie is silent, and quietly heads across the road.
As night's fallen upon Adam's Landing, The Evans Home has grown empty, as Willie sits in the living room, as Aretha returns, as Willie asks her Daughter "Where did you go?" Aretha tells her Mother "I went down while you and Terrance were upstairs and paid Ryan a visit, but he was gone. I did get a little dirt from his sweet Mama though, Judge Jo Chase." Willie smiles "She's a good woman. But I don't know about her Son from the way it looks. He's really out of his damn mind if he thinks he's going to rule an arena you master." Aretha nods, and agrees, as she calls it a night, as does Willie. At Bree's Mansion, Bree and Paul are in bed, as Paul tells her "Country is over at Ava's. He said he couldn't say anything else." Bree sighs "Oh no." Paul turns and asks "Why oh no?" Bree takes a deep breath, as she tells him, holding his hand "She's really gotten bad on the drinking. She only goes to Jackson Inc, and maybe a few places, but mainly home in that study drinking." Paul assures Bree "Gracie's there, and tonight, Country." Bree takes a deep breath, and they call it a night." At Cale and Allison's Home, they lay in bed, as Cale asks his Wife "Wade and Bridget, think it's gonna be over?" Allison tells her Husband, as she turns out the light "Be a good thing for him. But we have our baby to look forward to, and it'll have a playmate since Bree's also expecting." Cale kisses his Wife, and goes "We have it pretty damn good." Allison answers "Yes we do.", as they go to sleep. Back at Hell Hill, Beth walks around her Son and Daughter in Law's bedroom, as she yells "Taking too damn long and I want to go home so finish up!" Gracie walks inside, and runs upstairs, as the man walks out of the bathroom, and tells Beth "I'm not leaving town." Beth answers "Oh hell yes you are." Leigh walks out of the closet with a suitcase, as Beth tells her fiercely, and coldly "Take your ass downstairs, out that door, and stay away from my Son. I'm calling the shots around here now you sorry whore.." Gracie runs inside, and screams with rage and tears "How could you Mom! How could you do this to my Daddy?" Beth hugs her Granddaughter, and goes "And this man she's having sex with is the same man that did what we discussed to Ava that created Jack as a result, and the woman you see today, Aaron Pittman, professional piece of shit and rapist." Leigh attempts to walk up in Beth's face, as Beth flashes her pistol, and as Gracie runs downstairs in tears upon what she's seen, and texts her Brother, as he sits in his hotel room and informs him, he loads his pistol with rage in his eyes, as Brock says to himself "Well looks like Dad's about to be real proud of his Son." Back at Hell Hill, Leigh gets her suitcase, and warns Beth, as Aaron follows behind and goes "You can stay with me." Beth answers "Good. And it's over for you Leigh Woods. Tonight, you just wrote your own death certificate, and did the ultimate of ultimates when it comes to the unforgivable. Get out of this home, and I am sure Xavier will finalize that divorce now, but you are about to lose your ass and I will make your days in this town until the day I die a living hell for you! So get out!" Leigh and Aaron heads downstairs, as Beth follows, with her safety off, yet walking behind with pistol in hand. Gracie sits in the living room, as she cries uncontrollably, and Leigh attempts to walk over to her, as Gracie looks at her Mother with disappointment, and Beth screams "Get the hell away from her and leave!" Beth pushes Leigh out, and throws her suitcase out the door, and slams the door, as she consoles her Granddaughter. At Sully's Mansion, Sully and Henry are in bed, as they sleep, and the doorbell rings, and Sully wakes up, and walks downstairs, as she opens, and finds Xavier, as he cries uncontrollably, and tells his Oldest Daughter "I have nothing now Princess. How? How could she do this to me.." Sully holds her Father, and asks "What is it Daddy?" Xavier answers "Your Mother has slept with another man in the bed we shared in my family home." Sully holds her Father, as they both hurt, and as her Father cries, Sully cries silently with disappointment in her eyes.
Across the road at Whispering Hills, Gracie arrives, as she hears yelling in the study, as Ava yells at Jack "Tell your Wife to back the hell off boy or else!" Jack yells "Damnit Mom I am on your side. I don't want to pick sides!" Gracie is silent, as she makes a phone call to Sully, as she and Henry are in bed, and Sully tells him "Javon's taking care of things and we don't get to do this much my bad boy." Henry grins, as they kiss, as they lay in bed next to each other and watch a movie, and feed each other ice cream. Back at Whispering Hills, Jack walks out of the study, and tells Gracie "Mom needs help maybe you can convince her." Gracie goes "Too many of my own cuz." Jack walks out with frustration in his eyes, as Ava asks her Niece, in a slurred tone "So wanna get out of here? Here's my keys. Let's go to Jazz." There's a knock at the door, as Gracie answers and Bree stands on the other side, as Ava hugs her tightly and tells her Niece "Congratulations!" Bree goes "How did you hear? You weren't there." Ava quips "Beth sent me a text. I had to fight my Daughter In Law this afternoon, and my Son is, well damn whipped." Gracie turns the other way, as Bree tells her Aunt "They want what's best for you. As do I, but I know you, and just wish you'd moderate and come around more." Ava sighs "I'm sorry. I'll try because I plan to spoil your child when he or she is born."

Cale asks Wade "So tell me more about this shit with Brock?" Wade continues, as Allison tells him "He is my Aunt Beth's Grandson, Xavier's Son, and he's just taking time before he leaves you hanging."

Beth kicks open the door, and Leigh and the man jumps as Leigh yells at her Mother In Law "The nerve you have.." Beth aims her pistol at Leigh, and asks "Which should I kill first. I don't believe this!" Leigh yells "I'm moving on and living here whether you like it or not!" Beth snaps back angrily "After this? Shit! No, you just met your worst enemy you whore. Oh my God.." Beth walks back and forth, as the man puts on his pants, and attempts to exit, as Beth stops, and goes "Are you who I think.." The man is silent, as Beth glares towards Leigh, and turns off the safety, and goes "This is the worst thing imaginable Leigh. The worst. No way in hell can you come back from this one, and in this home. Oh no there.." On the highway, as he drives back to Hell Hill, Xavier gets a text from his Mother, as he turns over, and he sits back for a second, and is silent, with shock in his eyes, as he can't move and gets emotional.
Back at Sully's Mansion, Henry walks in the kitchen, following Sully and she goes "We're just getting some more ice cream and then back up to bed. I am the boss." Henry, as Sully only wears a T-shirt, smiles "Oh yes." Sully tells Henry "Back to the bed now!" Henry heads upstairs as he gets a text from his Mother, and yells "Yes!" Sully asks "She's not coming back?" Henry goes "She's staying at a motel Sully. We have this night just to us!" Sully yells "My prayers are answered. I hope." As they walk back into the bedroom, Henry reminds Sully "I'm not throwing her out in the street." Sully asks Henry "I know she's old and worn, but can she work?" Henry gasps "Sully....she would be really offended." Sully quips "Well baby, if she's going to live here, then I plan to hire her to work at Class. And that can be called rent. But she will know what I expect and I got a plane ticket saved with her name on it to anywhere. At The Farm, Randi sits inside the living room, as she asks "So you knew Bob Jennings?" Frank nods, and goes "A hell of a mechanic. He worked for me in the 70s when I won my first championship and he and his friend William started an auto dealership in the Midwest. They sponsor my team when we run once a year at Blue Ridge." Randi cries "He died and I lost everything..." Frank begins to feel sadness for Randi, and she opens up to him, as Frank's eyes are locked on Randi, and studying her intensely.
At Bree's Mansion, Bree returns, as she asks Paul "Where's my Dad?" Paul tells his fiancée" Xavier made a phone call. Actually I'm wrong, Beth made it." Bree is quiet, as she tells Paul, putting her arms around him "My life is perfect now. I have you, and we'll raise Summer's boys, and our little bundle of joy and build a legacy together and break my family's dark past." Paul tells her, kissing her "You've done awesome. Our future is very bright baby." They head to the bedroom. At Whispering Hills, Ava sits inside the kitchen, as Gracie goes "Finished with a little recipe Aunt Ciarra taught me years ago." Ava quips "When its like this I feel so happy. You are so much like Sully. I need to spend more time with her outside the office, and Ruthie I hear is having problems with Bridget." Gracie hands a cup to her Aunt, as Ava takes a sip, and asks "Ice creamed coffee? And orange flavored?" Gracie smiles, as Ava goes "Gracie, this could have some potential beyond just a family secret. And after reading my email from Javon, perfect for ThriftQuik!" There's a knock at the door, as Ava gets up to answer, and Country stands on the other end, as Ava asks "What are you doing here?" Country walks inside, as Gracie greets him with a hug, and asks "Staying with Ava? Is she sharing the liquor?" Ava snaps "Go your ass to the bar and drink something and why are you here tonight?" Country answers "Xavier and Beth ordered it." Ava asks "Is it because of Jack?" Country answers "Another reason. And his Wife is a prissy little bitch now isn't she?" Ava quips "Oh yes she is!" Gracie grows concerned, as Ava walks over and pours herself a drink, as Gracie is silent, and quietly heads across the road.
As night's fallen upon Adam's Landing, The Evans Home has grown empty, as Willie sits in the living room, as Aretha returns, as Willie asks her Daughter "Where did you go?" Aretha tells her Mother "I went down while you and Terrance were upstairs and paid Ryan a visit, but he was gone. I did get a little dirt from his sweet Mama though, Judge Jo Chase." Willie smiles "She's a good woman. But I don't know about her Son from the way it looks. He's really out of his damn mind if he thinks he's going to rule an arena you master." Aretha nods, and agrees, as she calls it a night, as does Willie. At Bree's Mansion, Bree and Paul are in bed, as Paul tells her "Country is over at Ava's. He said he couldn't say anything else." Bree sighs "Oh no." Paul turns and asks "Why oh no?" Bree takes a deep breath, as she tells him, holding his hand "She's really gotten bad on the drinking. She only goes to Jackson Inc, and maybe a few places, but mainly home in that study drinking." Paul assures Bree "Gracie's there, and tonight, Country." Bree takes a deep breath, and they call it a night." At Cale and Allison's Home, they lay in bed, as Cale asks his Wife "Wade and Bridget, think it's gonna be over?" Allison tells her Husband, as she turns out the light "Be a good thing for him. But we have our baby to look forward to, and it'll have a playmate since Bree's also expecting." Cale kisses his Wife, and goes "We have it pretty damn good." Allison answers "Yes we do.", as they go to sleep. Back at Hell Hill, Beth walks around her Son and Daughter in Law's bedroom, as she yells "Taking too damn long and I want to go home so finish up!" Gracie walks inside, and runs upstairs, as the man walks out of the bathroom, and tells Beth "I'm not leaving town." Beth answers "Oh hell yes you are." Leigh walks out of the closet with a suitcase, as Beth tells her fiercely, and coldly "Take your ass downstairs, out that door, and stay away from my Son. I'm calling the shots around here now you sorry whore.." Gracie runs inside, and screams with rage and tears "How could you Mom! How could you do this to my Daddy?" Beth hugs her Granddaughter, and goes "And this man she's having sex with is the same man that did what we discussed to Ava that created Jack as a result, and the woman you see today, Aaron Pittman, professional piece of shit and rapist." Leigh attempts to walk up in Beth's face, as Beth flashes her pistol, and as Gracie runs downstairs in tears upon what she's seen, and texts her Brother, as he sits in his hotel room and informs him, he loads his pistol with rage in his eyes, as Brock says to himself "Well looks like Dad's about to be real proud of his Son." Back at Hell Hill, Leigh gets her suitcase, and warns Beth, as Aaron follows behind and goes "You can stay with me." Beth answers "Good. And it's over for you Leigh Woods. Tonight, you just wrote your own death certificate, and did the ultimate of ultimates when it comes to the unforgivable. Get out of this home, and I am sure Xavier will finalize that divorce now, but you are about to lose your ass and I will make your days in this town until the day I die a living hell for you! So get out!" Leigh and Aaron heads downstairs, as Beth follows, with her safety off, yet walking behind with pistol in hand. Gracie sits in the living room, as she cries uncontrollably, and Leigh attempts to walk over to her, as Gracie looks at her Mother with disappointment, and Beth screams "Get the hell away from her and leave!" Beth pushes Leigh out, and throws her suitcase out the door, and slams the door, as she consoles her Granddaughter. At Sully's Mansion, Sully and Henry are in bed, as they sleep, and the doorbell rings, and Sully wakes up, and walks downstairs, as she opens, and finds Xavier, as he cries uncontrollably, and tells his Oldest Daughter "I have nothing now Princess. How? How could she do this to me.." Sully holds her Father, and asks "What is it Daddy?" Xavier answers "Your Mother has slept with another man in the bed we shared in my family home." Sully holds her Father, as they both hurt, and as her Father cries, Sully cries silently with disappointment in her eyes.

Daylight And Darkness: The Next Chapter, Episode 14. After The Bitter Cold: The Aftermath, Part 2
As the day has turned into afternoon, at Jackson Inc, Sully and Gracie returns to Sully's office, as she tells her Sister "Should I go down to stop Daddy?" Gracie quips "Let him deal with Bridget. He knows how to deliver a message." Sully takes a deep breath, as she responds with uncertainty "Sissy, he hates Wade Issac and he isn't very fond of her either. She did share a past with my Ex." Gracie goes "Sperm donor. Doesn't Cain call Henry Dad now?' Sully looks at her Sister, and suggests "You need to go downstairs to check on that job you got at Chase Media Group. And give me any scoop you find. And one more thing before you go back to Aunt Ava's, text me and keep me updated because she's worrying me." Gracie goes "Me too Sully. I will do that and maybe you go check on things at home yourself since your favorite person is likely there." Sully sighs with disgust "Good idea." Gracie heads out, as Sully heads back to her Mansion. Inside Sully's Mansion, Ruthie has returned from her classes at the Adam's Landing University, as Henry's passed out on the couch, and Randi makes calls, and snarks at Ruthie "We're having a party tonight here so you and Mommy can deal with it. My Son is the Man of the house!" Ruthie warns Randi "Tell that shit to my Mom when she gets here. I'm just packing my suitcase and locking my doors and staying the night with my Gram and Aunt Ciarra so blow off bitch." Ruthie heads upstairs, as Randi looks upstairs and says to herself "Like her bitch for a Mother. Hate that little bitch. But.." Randi pulls out her phone, as she types something in, and quips "I know a way to make my presence known." Meanwhile Henry remains passed out, as Randi walks over, and grabs his bottle, and takes a drink.
At The Farm, Bree beams with pride, and happiness, as Paul sits next to her, as Cale, Allison, and Ginny sits on the couch, and Frank, Beth, and Bobby stands as Beth asks "So where's the wedding going to be set and do is it a boy or girl?" Bree smiles "I'm going to keep all of you in suspense Aunt Beth. But we're going to get married soon and thinking of Hell Hill." Frank tells his Niece "Sounds perfect to me. It is our home place. And if you wanted to have the wedding here, it'd be alright too." Beth meanwhile shakes her head in disagreement, as does Bobby, as County walks inside and tells his Daughter "I had to call everyone I know and tell them my Daughter! The D.A. of Adam's Landing is having me a Grandbaby and I'm gonna be the best Papaw ever!" Bree looks at her Father, as she tells him "It's meant so much having you help me out with all this with Mom and that trial." Bobby chimes in, as Jo has left "Jo said she had enough to send her away. Got some packages she said and after you got sick while questioning Roger, we knew then." Bree sighs "She killed my Sister, or at least someone helped her do it. But now I'm moving on. I am getting the one thing I've always wanted, a baby, and a family." Frank meanwhile goes, as he looks around "Wasn't Ava supposed to drop by?" Bree tells her Uncle "She's invited me to Whispering Hills to tell her." Frank is silent, and heads to the kitchen, as Cale follows his Father. Inside the living room, Beth sits next to Bree, and tells her "You'll be a wonderful Mama and Ruth is smiling down." Bree holds her Aunt's hand, and cries "I wish she was here.." Beth smiles "She is Bree. And if she was here, I am certain she would likely babysit and you'd be lucky if she let you near him or her, or them.." Bree smiles "She loved me." Beth answers gently "She did. She always told me you were most like her." In the kitchen, Frank and Cale discuss Ava, as Country walks in and tells Frank "She's not in the right mind Frank." Frank tells Country "Well shit! She adores Bree and she used to come over to these." Cale asks his Father "Do you think there's a problem going on she isn't sharing with us?" Frank sighs "Son, if she's going through something, she wouldn't tell me. We aren't close and since Winston died she's really went into her own world." Country tells them "I'll find out what's going on." In the living room, Bobby and Beth, as Ginny hugs everyone as she heads into work as an intern at City Hospital "There needs to be something good to happen at Hell Hill. So let's arrange it there. I'll set everything up and discuss it with Xavier. He'll be fine with it." Bree and Paul asks "And Leigh?" Beth smiles, and answers "Screw her."
At Class, Bridget struts in, as her secretary tells her "Mr. Jackson is here." Bridget rolls her eyes, and gripes to herself "Well looks like the spoiled brat called her Papaw." Bridget walks inside, as Xavier sits behind her desk, as Bridget boldly warns Xavier "I'm in charge here Xavier. And if you are here to threaten me for Sully, or anyone else in your warped family, then get out!" Xavier puts his Colt 45 on the desk, and asks Bridget "Are you bragging to my Granddaughter about sleeping with her Father?" Bridget snaps in a defensive tone "My life and what I do doesn't apply to you, so get out before I call Wade!" Xavier picks up his Colt 45, and laughs "Call anybody you want Bridget. And I just want you to know something. Back off of Ruthie and acting like a damn bully before you answer to me! Ava would like to know I'm certain.." Bridget yells "Leave bastard! Xavier walks to the door, putting his gun in his pocket, and warns "You may damn work for Sully, and I trust my Princess, but anything with Jackson Inc. you whore, then you answer to me and don't forget that." Xavier calmly walks out, as Bridget shrieks "How dare you insult me you old evil son of a bitch!" Bridget walks to her desk, and calls Wade, as she goes "Xavier just visited me."
At HaleCorp, as Brock works on a project, Wade listens to his Wife, with anger in his eyes, as he goes coldly "Talk to you when I get home." Bridget snaps back "No we meet with dinner. Get your Grandmother out of our lives and I'll return home!" Bridget hangs up, as Wade looks at Brock, and snaps "You need to know something. My Grandmother wants you gone, and I have declared war on your Daddy. Poor pitiful Xavier Jackson Sr." Jared walks inside, as he tells Wade "I'm leaving now and back off my Ex's Brother!" Jared leaves, as Brock glares at Wade, and in a cocky, arrogant tone goes "And I'm working on something private and if you try me, I'll expose your ass and collect! Lord Media or the one that bought the paper Wade?" Wade snaps "I'm leaving and I'm watching you." Brock laughs, as Wade walks out, and Brock says to himself with a smirk "Done met your worst nightmare Mr. Issac! Time to make things right with my Dad!"
Meanwhile at Whispering Hills, Ava sits in Winston's former study, and smokes a cigarette and takes a straight shot of whiskey, as her housekeeper walks inside, and tells her "Samantha's here." Ava puts the whiskey bottle in her Husband's old desk, as Samantha sighs with disgust "And do I smell liquor? This exactly is why J.J. needs to stay away from you. You have turned into a drunk, and crazy and I want you in rehab. Jack's on his way..." Ava gets up and screams at her Daughter In Law "Samantha Martin! Winston would disown you if he was here right now and my Son supports me! Enough now and I want to see my Grandson because he is closest to ME! Understand? ME!" Samantha yells back angrily "He has enough being a young man and having autism and I don't want him around you and you staying drunk, or high when Beth shows up here a few times a week Ava! Think I'm stupid?" Ava slaps Samantha, and yells "I want my damn life back with Winston and everything to be normal and for you to stop turning J.J. against me! I was the one who accepted he was how he was.." Samantha snaps "And remember you and Beth having Casey as your guest? And it scared him?" Ava yells "Get out of my house and don't come back without my Grandson!" Samantha snaps back "Gladly Ava, and tomorrow, J.J,'s going off to a group home far away from here!" Samantha storms out, as Ava calls her Son, as Jack's driving towards Whispering Hills, as Ava warns her Son angrily "Samantha done messed up and I'm feeling friendly towards Rachel Lane again so better take care of her ass or I sure as hell will! Jack asks "Have you been over to Uncle's Frank's for Bree's announcement?" Ava hangs up, as she sits back down at Winston's old desk, and pours a glass of whiskey, and lights a joint, looking at a photo of Winston, and holding it to her chest.
Back at Jackson Inc., downstairs at Chase Media Group, Gracie sits in a meeting as Ryan tells his company of their plans, as Gracie is quiet and taking notes. Ryan then tells everyone "We are about to beat Aretha Evans and Rachel Lane and her present, as his tone becomes cocky. The lights go off, as a picture's shown, and Gracie's jaw drops.! Ryan smiles "Adam's Landing News and my talk show's about to be the greatest thing to ever happen to Adam's Landing!" As Ryan concludes, Gracie walks up to Ryan, as he asks Gracie "So are you about to warn me because I'm really not that interested." Gracie snaps "Wipe the damn smirk off your face. My Dad's helping you and now you are about to do this? Like seriously Ryan?" Ryan asks "Well shouldn't he know about what his Wife is up to?" Gracie yells "By his own eyes or from his family. If you publish this, I swear I will live to make you pay for this one and I mean pay!" Ryan laughs "Sounds like Xavier's little girls are all the same. Little stuck up spoiled brats." Gracie snaps "No bastard I earned my degree! And don't consider what I said as a threat, but as a damn promise!" Gracie walks out, as Ryan's silent and makes a phone call.
At Beth and Ciarra's Penthouse, as Ruthie arrives, and Ciarra greets her Great-Niece with a hug, and tells her "So any fun ideas sweet girl?" Ruthie tells her Great-Aunt "When Gram gets here, thought we could get out and have dinner.." Ciarra tells her "Sweetie. I'm staying in this apartment forever. After being so shamed by that trial, I want to go back to Blue Ridge." Ruthie gets emotional, as Ciarra snaps "Stop it now. I hate the thought, but I can't see Jamie anymore around here or reminded of it." Ruthie opens her arms, as Ciarra walks to the kitchen, and tells Ruthie "I'll cook some pizzas like Tennessee and I would do sometimes since Beth isn't here." Ruthie nods in agreement, as Precious howls, and Ciarra tells Precious "And one for you too." Ruthie reminds her with a smile "Please style it up." Ciarra turns to her Great-Niece, and smiles, as she says with a smile "The Emery Room's special recipe." At Sully's Mansion, Sully walks inside, as Henry has waken and asks Sully "Where's my Mom?" Sully snaps "Gone hopefully. She does NOT run this home and I'm ready to check that old bitch!" Henry grabs Sully, and goes "She left. Said she was seeing an old friend of my Dad's." Sully looks at Henry for a moment, as she asks "Frank?" Henry nods, as Sully warns her fiancée "Just know that when she tries for him, I will be the very least of her problems. Grandma will have her disappearing. She keeps that license to practice medicine renewed. And I think I told you of her putting Rachel and her Mom in a coma.." Henry nods, and asks Sully "So since Mom's gone and Ruthie.." Sully and Henry run upstairs..
Back at The Farm, Bree, Bobby, Paul, and Country has left, as Beth prepares to leave and asks Frank "So when did you turn into such a softy?" Cale asks "Are you hinting you are crushing?" Allison smiles, and goes "Come on and open up Aunt Beth. I see you are happy." Beth and Frank holds each other, as Beth tells them "We may never remarry but we love each other. In many ways." Frank and Beth kiss, as Cale looks at his Wife, and they head to FJR Inside, Beth backs away, and tells Frank "I'm going to check on things at Hell Hill before heading home. I think Ruthie should be at the Penthouse since she took the day off from that bitch running it." Beth heads out, as Frank asks his Ex-Wife "And what's going on with Ciarra? She's acting odd Beth." Beth goes "Now you are a shrink? Jamie has hurt her, and she is really low. I'm making sure she's always surrounded with friends. She's my best friend Frank." Beth leaves, as Frank is silent and says to himself "I'm here Beth." At Bree's Mansion, Bree and Paul return, as Bree tells Paul "Well let's enjoy the rest of this day to ourselves. The ALPD will be fine, and you and I celebrate." Paul asks "Aren't you going to see Ava?" Bree sighs "Her phone's off. She isn't accepting calls." Paul kisses Bree, and asks "Isn't Country coming back?" Bree tells him "He's going to check on her. And then likely visit Xavier." Paul and Bree look into each others eyes as they begin to kiss, as they sit together on the sofa.
At Jackson Inc. Javon sits inside Xavier's office, as they look at Jack's idea together, as Xavier looks at Javon and tells him "This is brilliant! We could move into many areas with this concept." Javon agrees, as Gracie walks inside, and Xavier looks at his Daughter, as Gracie stumbles on her words, and goes "Go downstairs Dad. I think you need to." Xavier looks at Javon as he walks out, and Gracie follows, as Xavier turns, as Gracie tells him "Ryan Chase is about to attack the legacy." Xavier tells her "Go walk around and think about the future." Xavier gets on the elevator, as he puts his hand in his pocket. Meanwhile, Leigh and the man from earlier at The Holiday Hotel are inside the bedroom she shares with Xavier at Hell Hill, as she goes "Once he decides to free me, I'm all yours you sexy man." They take off each others clothes, as they have sex. Back at Jackson Inc, Xavier walks inside Chase Media Group, as he walks off the elevator, as Ryan reminds Xavier "Now we agreed you wouldn't show up unless I was notified." Xavier warns Ryan "This is my building and I will do whatever the hell I want and what do you know?" Ryan laughs, as he asks "About?" Xavier puts his hand in his pocket, and warns coldly "If I were you I'd be thinking of survival if you want to make it in this town. I know what you're doing, and I can destroy you and have no problems doing so." Xavier walks over to Ryan's computer, as Ryan stands back, as he sees Xavier's gun, as Xavier sends a copy to his phone, and deletes Ryan's photo and smiles "Now problem solved and if you excuse me.." Xavier returns to his office upstairs at Jackson Inc. At Hell Hill, Leigh and the man has sex, as downstairs, Beth pulls out her key, and unlocks the door, and looks towards the stairway and walks upstairs..

Sully looks at Henry for a moment, as she asks "Frank?" Henry nods, as Sully warns her fiancée "Just know that when she tries for him, I will be the very least of her problems. Grandma will have her disappearing. She keeps that license to practice medicine renewed. And I think I told you of her putting Rachel and her Mom in a coma.." Henry nods, and asks Sully "So since Mom's gone and Ruthie.." Sully and Henry run upstairs..
