Previously on "Revenge"...

Charlotte Grayson
is your sister?

What are you gonna do
with the tapes?

I've gotta get rid of Amanda.

I think it's best if you
go back to your mother's.

Emily Thorne,
will you marry me?

Yes.

What the hell are you doing?

The Graysons hired
that guy who beat up Jack.

Go to save yourself.

I'm gonna need
your old cell phone.

Where's Amanda?

She's gone, Jack.

Your mom said David Clarke
raped her?

You still want to marry
into my crazy family?

More than ever.

Years ago,

I met a boy who
introduced me to a book,

"The Marriage
of Heaven and Hell."

In it, William Blake writes,

"If the doors of perception
were cleansed,

"everything would appear
to man as it is...

Infinite."

But in reality,
our perception is often clouded...

By expectations...

By experiences.

As of late, I find my perception
is blinded by only one thing:

Revenge.

Things aren't what they seem.

I can promise you,

Victoria Grayson had nothing
to do with my arrest.

If anything,
she's another victim.

The father of her child
is in prison,

and she's being forced

to raise our baby with the man
I believe put me here.

Mom?

- Did you see the invitation?
- Mm-hmm.

It's gorgeous.

You okay?

I'm just pleased
to have you back.

You're upset about the engagement,
aren't you?

It's just an engagement.
Anything can happen.

What would you like
for breakfast?

- I already ate.
- Well, lunch then.

I'm having lunch with Declan,

the other one you don't
exactly approve of.

But they can't all be Graysons,
can they?

Your mother requested white
for the engagement photos.

What do you think?

I think, I'm one lucky guy.

You look gorgeous.

You sure you're ready
for all this?

Well, it's too late
to turn back now.

The invitations are already out.

I'll see you
at the photo shoot.

Okay.

Six months ago,

Victoria gave birth
to a baby girl.

Her name is Charlotte.

You want proof
that I'm telling the truth?

Ask her who the father is?

Good morning, Nolan.

"Fire & Ice."
Mm. Subtle.

Was "Fire & Brimstone"
not available?

I didn't check.

What happened to pressing pause
and regrouping?

Victoria told Daniel
that my father raped her.

That that's how she
became pregnant with Charlotte.

Wow. She threw a dead man
under the bus?

- She's certainly committed.
- So am I.

You're thinking of going wide
about Charlotte's paternity.

Aren't you?

Just waiting for
the perfect moment.

And you're not worried at all about
how that might affect your little sis?

One way or another,
she's gonna find out.

I want it to be my way.

You might want to give that
some second thought.

Last time you had it your way,

Jack ended up with three cracked
ribs and a broken heart.

His wounds will heal in time.

I'm just happy that he's
finally out of this.

Good-bye, Nolan.

All right. Just over here, boys.

Yeah, yeah, around the corner.
Yep, just in that room.

There you go.

All right, now careful,
careful, careful.

Ah, special delivery

for my good buddy Jack,

help ease the pain.

What am I supposed
to do with that?

Watch larger-than-life porn,

uh, jumbo "Judge Judy,"
your choice.

Holy crap.

That's very generous,
but we don't need it.

Oh, yeah, we do. I...
I mean, if you can't return it, then...

Dec, show the guys
where to put it.

Look, this came for you today.

I know you're already in pain, so
I thought I'd just pile it all on at once.

Sorry.

Um, I guess, follow me.

All right.

Careful, guys.

You knew Amanda's family,
right?

Just her father.

Any idea
where she might have gone?

No clue.

Wait. I don't need to give you the
"other fish in the sea" talk, do I?

Because you're basically
a fisherman.

Amanda's different.

In her note,

she said she left
because trouble follows her.

I think she thinks she was
the reason I got beat up.

I need to find her,
tell her it wasn't her fault.

Jack...

What you need to do is rest.

Just rest, buddy.

So...

Fire & Ice?

It's astonishing how
your mother managed

to model the theme
of your engagement party

after both sides
of her own personality.

You told me to ask Mom about
the secret she's been hiding.

Well, she told me.

- What did she tell you exactly?
- The truth.

That David Clarke
is Charlotte's biological father,

and everything
she's been through

having to carry
a terrible secret like that.

Wait a minute.
Everything she's been through?

Come on, Daniel.

If you're this easily
manipulated by your mother,

I shudder to think what Emily
is gonna do to you as your wife.

- So the rumors are true?
- Grandpa.

How you doing?

I heard you went out
and got yourself engaged.

Can't wait to meet
the lovely lady.

As one marriage begins,

I understand,
another one's coming to an end.

Dad.

Vicky called me.

Of course she did.

The idea was to keep
our separation discreet.

But what the heck?

Give us a moment,
will you, Dan?

Oh, sure.

You're in hot water, boy.

I shouldn't have to tell you
what a negative impact

a hostile divorce can have
on our company's bottom line,

especially if our assets are forced
into a public tug-of-war

between you and your old lady.

Well, I've got that situation
well in hand.

From what she told me,
your life's in a free fall.

You're on the verge of taking a
wrecking ball to the Grayson name,

my name.

That is from Victoria,
I assume?

Your source has
her own agenda, Pops.

Precisely why I'm here.

I didn't build my empire
from the ground up

so I could watch
your domestic failure

single-handedly tear it down.

It's Amanda.
You know what to do.

Amanda... it's Jack.

Again.

I just found something
that belongs to you.

Actually, it looks like
it belongs to the guy

whose house
you apparently torched.

I don't know if you're
checking these messages anymore

or if you're just deleting them,
but, uh...

If you want your tape back,

you're gonna have to
meet with me face-to-face.

I'm sick of being played.

I deserve answers.

How the hell did this happen?

How did Jack get his hands
on that tape?

Victoria's henchman
must have missed it.

And if you're gonna say
I told you so, don't.

All right.
Well, what's on it, anyway?

Depends on what tape it is.

It could be nothing
or it could be a pandora's box.

I don't know.

I'll get it.

Well, you've done
enough damage.

I don't want
to see Jack get hurt again.

What, you think I do?

I think you're so busy
looking down the road,

that you lost sight of us
mere mortals long ago.

The photographer's ready.

Is that the L'Wren Scott?
It's perfect.

Oh, and I spoke
to Carolina Herrera,

and she said,
she would be thrilled

to make your dress
for the engagement party.

I was thinking drop waist,
off the shoulder.

Ashley, personal question.

- Are you close with your family?
- Not particularly.

My father wasn't around much.

Mm. Well, I didn't know
my father at all.

It's one of my deepest regrets.

I think growing up without someone
to protect you from the world

forces you to learn
how to survive in it.

Well, that's something
we both have in common.

Terrific.

Let's get
another light reading.

Charlotte, look at you.

You know, the last photographs
I have of the two of us

- are from Martha's vineyard...
- Beautiful.

- Ages ago.
- Nice.

We used to spend
so much time together

when Daniel was away
at Harvard.

What happened?

The prodigal son returned.

What's say you and I
go out after this,

just the two of us?

I already told you,
I have plans with Declan.

Well, then how about
the three of us?

And one more big smile.

I'd like to get to know
Declan better, and...

smooth over any awkwardness
between us.

Oh, you mean after you tried
to bribe him to leave me alone?

That's kinda hard
to smooth out, Mom.

I am trying, Charlotte.

I am.

Okay, who's next?

Me. I am.

Let's, uh, cue up a little music.

See if we can get everybody
in the mood to get their smile on.

Hey, ems.

You know it's not fair
to keep her in the dark.

- You need to tell her.
- Smiles or no smiles?

Your sister's in
a delicate place right now,

with the divorce
and her father.

This has to be
handled properly.

Great. Beautiful.

But you are gonna handle it,
aren't you?

Because if it were me,
I'd want to know.

What hurts more is finding out
you've been lied to.

Okay, okay, the groom.

Come over here.

How you holding up?

- Better now that you're here.
- Sorry I'm late.

Grandpa Grayson ambushed
my dad at the South Fork.

Apparently,
my mother called him.

- What do you think's going on?
- I don't know.

But he's always had
a soft spot for my mom

more than my dad.

Daniel, just put your arm
around her and act natural.

- Nothing about this is natural.
- Then try the other arm.

Think about the first time you
laid your eyes on each other.

♪

"The Marriage...

of Heaven and Hell,"
by William Blake.

William Blake, the poet.

I know who that is.
I took Brit Lit last semester.

All right. Very good.
Listen.

"If the doors of perception
were cleansed,

"everything would appear
to man as it is, infinite."

And that applies to you how?

Infinite freedom.

That's what I want.

I'm weighed down by
my father's expectations,

my mother's disapproving eye,

but mostly
by the world's perception

of what it means
to be a Grayson.

I don't want to be limited by all that
for the rest of my life.

That's it.
That's what I'm looking for.

Beautiful. Great.

What were you thinking?

I was just thinking about
the moment that...

I knew you were the one.

Oh, that's nice.
Yeah.

- Daddy.
- Hey.

I knew you'd come.

Well, it's a family portrait,
isn't it?

- You guys are so photogenic.
- And this is still my family.

Hey, I want to take
a picture with Dad.

In a minute. I just need
to talk to your mother.

Let's set one up
with Charlotte and her father.

You know what?
Forget it.

I'm going to lunch.

Mom, if you'd still like
to join me and Declan,

- I'd love that.
- I would be delighted.

Join me in the study,
would you?

How about we try one
over by the railing?

How dare you

drag my father into this.

I was simply telling him
about the engagement party.

Oh, the hell you were.

We'll settle all of this
tonight at dinner.

He'll be here at 8:00.

- Well, I won't be.
- Of course you will.

And you will use this evening
as a platform

to show that our separation
is civil and fair,

ensuring
your father's confidence

in your ongoing leadership
of Grayson Global.

- Or?
- Or...

I can make it
an apocalyptic showcase

of just how ugly
things have become

and how much worse
they can get.

What do you want, Victoria?

I want you to resume
acting like

a compassionate father
to Charlotte,

to agree never to reveal to her
her true paternity,

and to settle this divorce
fairly and out of court.

- Is that all?
- For now.

Hey, Skipper.

What you got?

- You're an A/V geek, right?
- Mm-hmm.

You know what that is?

Wow.

Dinosaur format.

What do I need to watch it?

Well, why don't I just
take it back to my lab?

And, uh, I'll see what I can do.

I'll hold on to that.

Jack...

You... you seem tightly wound.

I mean, I can't help but notice
Amanda's name on that.

A sex tape?

No. Just find me a player.

As you know,
Grandpa Grayson is in town,

and I would love
for the two of you

to join us for dinner tonight.

I would be remiss

if I didn't mention
how important it is

for all of us,
despite recent events,

to put forth our best effort

and welcome him
into our happy home.

What was that about?

That looked an awful lot
like my mother

getting what she wants.

You know what?
This is Nolan.

I've been putting him off all day.
I've gotta get it.

All right.
I'm gonna get changed.

- Okay.
- Okay.

Ashley, I'll be back
in a minute.

Did you find the tape?

Jack won't let it
out of his sight.

I could erase it
if I dig up my degausser.

But there's no guarantee
he won't watch it before then.

Okay, do you know the number
that was on the tape?

14. Why?
You know what's on it?

That was my interview with
Treadwell when I was 10.

I've gotta get my hands
on the tape.

I'll take it from here.

Wait, wait, wait, wait.
What are you gonna do?

Something I've been
trying to avoid.

Everything okay?

Yeah.

I know you weren't happy
with that photo shoot.

No, it w... it's not that.

It's just... I don't know.

Maybe tomorrow, you, Daniel,
and I can go out in the sunlight,

do something
that's a bit more us.

That was my original concept.

This whole thing
was Victoria's idea.

Yeah, it usually is.

Listen, I have a few things
that I need to take care of.

Will you tell Daniel
I had to go?

What kind of things?

Secret things.

Wedding things.

Hello.

I got your message, Jack.

I need that tape back.

That's it?

That's all
you have to say to me?

Coastal Inn, Riverhead,

room six.

We'll talk when you get here.

Bring that tape.

I'm sorry to drag you back into this.

It's okay.

I was going crazy,
not being able to talk to Jack.

How is he?

Does he miss me?

He's confused and upset
by what happened,

which is why we need to
stay focused on the bigger picture.

We can't let whatever's on that
tape lead him to Victoria.

You know what she's capable of.
You've seen it yourself.

Are you sure
we're doing the right thing?

What if we just
tell Jack the truth?

That you've been pretending
to be me this whole time?

He'd never forgive you
for that.

- They just came in.
- Hey, wish me luck.

Mrs. G.
Thanks for joining us.

Thank you for having me,
Declan.

It's like the beginning
of a joke.

Two Graysons walk into a bar...

Well, perhaps we should
have a drink

before I hear the punch line.

Do you have a wine list?

We do. It's two wines long.
Red or white.

How about
a bourbon on the rocks?

Yeah, I'll put
that order in with Bull.

I'll be right back.

Uh, this is weird for you,
isn't it?

Well, believe it or not,
there's more to me

than meets the eye.

Besides, I think it's important

to shake up one's perspective
every once in a while.

That's why I'm interested
in yours.

Good. Well,
then can I invite Declan

to dinner with Grandpa tonight?

Sweetheart,
that's not a good idea.

It's very important to your father
that the evening go without a hitch.

Dad can hardly force a smile
long enough to take a picture with me.

He'll behave.
I spoke to him.

It's open.

Ah...

It's Victoria's pet bird.

She wanted to me to pick up
your list of invites for Fire & Ice.

Oh, well, unfortunately,
it's incomplete.

My secretary is still working
on the crossover

as Victoria and I are still

socially intertwined.

Okay. I'll let
Mrs. Grayson know.

What's your game, young lady?

I beg your pardon?

Well, you're too refined
to be a grifter

and you're too smart
to be a lackey.

So I suppose the polite word for it
would be opportunist.

So if it's opportunity
you're looking for,

you're hitching your wagon
to the wrong Grayson.

Oh, I know all about
how Victoria treats her help.

I mean, you know,
she keeps you at bay

and then she draws you in,
gives you promises,

and as soon as you think
she's gonna let you fly,

she clips your wings
and puts you back in your cage.

I wouldn't settle for that

if I were you.

Why don't you
have your secretary

e-mail me the list when you're ready,
Mr. Grayson?

Did you bring the tape?

Hi to you, too.

- Amanda...
- Did you watch it?

Do I need to?

Don't I already know
everything I need to know?

Some guy's house burns down,

another guy comes looking
for his stolen property,

which I find in my house,
left by you,

and I'm nearly beaten
to death for it.

Was I just your alibi?

That spontaneous trip
to Atlantic City,

suggested by you,
was that not-so-spontaneous after all?

What do you want me to say,
Jack?

I did it.

I'm a thief, an arsonist,
and now a fugitive,

so call the cops if you want,
just give me the tape back.

Not until
you tell me the truth.

Why'd you come back here?

Look at me.

Was it for me?

Was it for something else?

- You want the whole truth, Jack?
- Yeah.

The truth is,
I've made mistakes.

I've pretended to be
something I'm not.

And that little girl you loved,

she's not me.

Just give me the tape back.

No.

No, I'm keeping it.

I want to see what was worth

throwing everything
we had away.

J...

- You need to go after him.
- No!

I don't care
what's on that tape,

I'm not doing that
to him again.

- We're doing it for him...
- So you keep saying.

- Amanda...
- Stop calling me that.

You want that tape so bad,
you get it from him.

I need you to call Jack and tell him
you found the equipment to view that video.

He wouldn't give it back
to Amanda.

Poor Jack must really want answers
if not even the Long Island Lolita

could pry that tape
from his death grip.

You never told me
exactly what's on it.

What's the difference?
All Jack's gonna see is snow, right?

Is this the degausser?

Locked and ready to be loaded.

It'll erase
any magnetic recording.

Though, why not just
let him see the tape?

Seriously, Ems.

I mean, give the poor guy
some closure

as to why Amanda Clarke
added criminal pyromania

to her already impressive
list of felonies.

Because the only memory Jack
should have of Amanda Clarke

is the girl that I left behind.

Is that so he can move on...

Or so you can?

Never mind.

What's on the reven-genda
this evening, hmm?

Dinner with Daniel's
grandfather.

I hear there's nothing Grandpa Grayson
likes less than a scandal.

Victoria used my father's reputation
to explain away Charlotte's existence.

Tonight I'm pitting
her own lies against her.

Forgive me for being
Captain Obvious,

but, uh, you do realize,

you're putting your own sister
into the crosshairs again?

Charlotte deserves
to know the truth.

The question is...

Who's gonna tell her?

That's simple.

Our father is.

Hi.

- Hello.
- Oh.

There's a package
in the doorway.

Thank you.

Hey, babe.

How were your secret errands?

All taken care of.

Come on. I want you
to meet my grandfather.

Okay.

Well, actually, me and my brother
own a bar in Montauk.

Best barflies in the Hamptons,
hands down.

Hello, Dad.

There's my girl.

Oh.

Don't you look well?

You're lying your ass off,
but I'll take it.

I see that you've met Declan.

He's going to be attending
Collins Prep with Charlotte this fall.

Well, that's assuming
I pass the entrance exams.

And I been working like a dog,
but they're, uh...

They're a bitch.

Yes, sir.

Listen, I never made it
past the 11th grade.

But I started Grayson Global
from the ground up at 22.

Don't ever let
the place you start

dictate where you finish.

Right, Victoria?

Never.

Emily.

Emily, this is my grandfather,
Edward Grayson.

It's such a pleasure
to meet you, sir.

Daniel's told me
so much about you.

I wish I could say
the same about you.

Well, in our defense,
this courtship

practically materialized
out of thin air.

So how did you two
love birds meet?

Hey, studybug.
Settle an argument for us.

Do you know who this man is?

Nope.

He is poised to be one of
the richest men in America.

Wow.

But he wants to throw all that away
and become a penniless poet.

Now I think he's crazy.
What do you think?

I think you should ask someone else.

Oh, no, no, no.
We want to ask you.

I mean, I can't be who I am
and a poet at the same time.

My parents would never allow it.

You want people
to see something different

when they hear your last name?

Make 'em see it.

Be better than your parents.

There ain't nothin'
more poetic than that.

Daniel strikes me as a man
who knows what he wants.

Be willing to make a decision.

That's what Patton said
was the sign of a true leader.

Evening, all.

Sorry I'm late.
I got held up at work.

Still kissing up to the boss

after all these years, hey?

Yeah, well, it seems
a C.E.O.'s work is never done.

If you'll excuse me.

Charlotte, would you join me
in the study, please?

- How about a dance?
- I'd love that.

- You okay with this, Char?
- Just give me a second, Declan.

I love you.

Level with me, Vicky.

You think this marriage
can be saved?

Come on, Dad.

You can hardly be surprised.

Besides, you and I have always
spoken the same language.

I've loved a lot of women
in my life,

but I never could figure out

how to make it last.

Well, maybe that's because you
loved too many at the same time.

Fair enough.

But I'm 80 now...

With nothing to show for it.

I don't want the same fate
for you and Conrad.

Oh, neither do I.

Promise me that this is not
gonna get ugly.

Hmm?

Here's Amanda's tape.

Thanks, man.

I couldn't have gone to
anyone else about this.

Well... lucky for you,
you got

the captain of the geek squad
in your back pocket.

That's not what
I'm saying, Nolan.

You've been
a really good friend.

Probably one of my only.

Can I ask you something,
friend to friend?

Shoot.

Why do you want to watch this?

I mean, if Amanda
already admitted

that she set the fire,
what does it matter?

Because the reality can't be
any worse than my imagination.

What if it is?

Either way, I gotta know.

If I'm gonna let her go,

I have to.

Please.
I need to talk to my daddy.

Find the lady
with the dark hair.

She was there the night
they took him away.

He loved her.
And she loved him.

They kissed on the lips
all the time.

Just find her.

I know she'll help us.

Do you know
the name of this woman?

Victoria.

Please.

I have to see him again.

Poor kid.

Jack, I'm so sorry.

Yeah.

Yeah, me, too.

Charlotte...

I owe you an apology.

Whatever's happening with
this family is not your fault.

I shouldn't have taken my frustrations
with your mother out on you.

So I haven't
done anything wrong?

Absolutely not.

No.

If I seem tough, Charlotte,

it's because I want you strong enough
to handle whatever instabilities

may come your way.

Daddy, do you remember
when Justin Fowler

broke up with me
at my sweet 16 party?

Yeah. Sure.

He was your first love.

And you sat with me
for two hours

when my friends were downstairs,
wondering where I'd gone.

Remember what you said?

Let 'em wait.

And you sat with me,
making me laugh.

You know, that laugh of yours

is probably
my most favorite sound

in the whole wide world.

I'm not afraid of instability,
Daddy.

As long as I have you,

there's nothing I can't handle.

Hey.

Come here.

There's my girl.

Emily.

Dinner's almost ready.

Why don't you come join
the others on the patio?

This is just a DVD
from another wedding planner.

I wouldn't want Ashley
to get the wrong idea.

Well, that's so thoughtful.

Amanda!

Amanda, open the door.

I know you're in there.
Please...

Just talk to me.

Look, I don't know
why you pushed me away,

and I don't care.
I just want to help you.

I saw the tape.

I know what Victoria
did to you.

I know she left you
in that awful place.

I probably would've burned
that house down myself.

Please open the door.

Amanda! Are you in there?!

Please just talk to me.

Excuse me. This is one of
the foundations I work for.

Amanda.

If you were gonna let Jack
watch the tape,

why'd you make me
push him away?

- I didn't let him watch it.
- Somebody did.

How do you know that?

Because he was just here.

- He nearly broke the door down.
- Amanda, listen to me...

No, I'm done listening to you.

I'm gonna start listening
to Jack now.

I'm going after him.

- Amanda...
- Modern technology...

It's gonna be the death
of us all.

Come on. Join the party.

Jack!

Jack! Jack!

Jack!

Jack!

And the rain was pouring down on us,
but I just kept going.

And, uh, and somehow,
she found it in her heart to say yes.

That's great.

And Daniel tells me
you're independently wealthy.

Here's to small miracles.

She studies cultures
all around the world,

speaks several different languages,
devotes her time to charity.

Well...

She's pretty special.

Beauty, brains,
and a big heart to boot.

You know who you remind me of?

Victoria.

Hmm.

Don't you all see the resemblance?

Sir. Excuse me. Sir.

You couldn't do it.

You couldn't just leave her
the hell alone.

Jack, I... I...

Excuse me, Porter,
we're kind of in the middle

- of a family dinner here, so...
- Back off, Grayson.

I'm not here for you.

Well, if you're here for Emily,

I'm sure she made it clear,
she's not interested.

- Don't push me.
- Enough!

Mr. Porter, you have
some nerve coming here.

I've got some nerve?

What did you say to Amanda Clarke
to make her leave town?

Don't be ridiculous.

Obviously,
you've been misinformed.

As misinformed
as David Clarke was

when Amanda saw you
kissing him?

Mom, what is he talking about?

I know. I know you were
in love with Amanda's father.

But I guess
it was more important

to hide that from the world
than to help the little girl

that he left behind.

- You have an active imagination.
- Who needs imagination?

I've seen the videotape.

It's no wonder her life
turned out as rough as it did.

But you could've prevented that,
and you did nothing.

Nothing.

If you don't stop telling lies
about Amanda Clarke,

I'm gonna start telling
the truth about you.

Jack. Hey, wait up.

Victoria, is this true?

Listen, he doesn't know

what really happened
with David Clarke.

Murder and terrorism
weren't his only crimes.

What happened wasn't Mom's fault.

Is that the story
you're spinning these days?

Astonishing, the lengths you'll
go to for self-preservation.

Not another word, Conrad.
I am warning you.

She's right.
Charlotte doesn't deserve

to be in the middle of this.

No, she doesn't deserve
to be in the middle of it,

but she's right
in the center of it.

And she has your mother
to thank for that.

Somebody better tell me
what's going on right now

- or I swear...
- Charlotte, sweetheart,

you said that you could handle
anything as long as you have me.

Well, you have me, always.

And it's time
you know the truth.

David Clarke isn't just
Amanda's father.

He's your biological father
as well.

No.

He's not.

Mom...

Charlotte!

I will never forgive you for this.

And I'll never forgive you for
inviting that bastard into our bed.

She didn't invite him, Dad.

That's not what happened.

No, no, that's exactly
what happened, Daniel.

Whatever you think you know,
that man never attacked your mother.

No.

And it wasn't just one night.

It was an ongoing affair.

No, you're wrong.
Mom, tell him.

Mom, tell him.

So much for the possibility
of a friendly divorce.

Well, she'll settle quietly.
I'm making sure of that.

Do I have to remind you
what happened to this company

the last time David Clarke's name
was associated with it?

Why are you talking to me like
I'm the one who slept with him?

She did this to our family,
willingly.

I am less concerned
about her sins as a wife

than I am about your sins
as a father.

What kind of a man forces his children
to participate in a charade like this?

You did when you taught me
that perception is reality!

In business, Conrad!
This is family.

It's the same difference,
isn't it?

If that is all
I passed on to you,

then you should understand
why I am suggesting

that you step down as C.E.O.
of Grayson Global,

and we begin to groom your son
to take your place.

Clearly, Daniel
is the only one left

willing and able to stand up
for what's left of this family.

You can't be serious.
He's just a kid.

He's older than I was
when I started this company!

All due respect,
you might have brought

the Grayson name
to the company,

but I brought the Global.

All due respect, son,

I am still
chairman of the board.

Hello.

Jack, it's Emily.

I just wanted to make sure
that you were okay.

Yeah. Yeah, I'm fine.

I'm sorry about the party.

I was just... so angry.

Have you talked to Amanda?

No. I can't find her.

I've been back by her hotel
a couple of times,

but... other than that,
I don't know where to look.

Well, maybe she doesn't
want to be found.

I know you really
care about her,

but you can't fix a person
if they don't want to be helped.

But if you'd just seen
this tape, Emily...

She was just some little girl
that everyone stopped fighting for.

I... I have to go, Jack.
I'm sorry.

- Hey.
- Hey.

How's Charlotte?

She's not answering her phone.

She should never
have found out this way.

She's stronger than you think.

- I think I'll go look for her.
- Okay.

I feel like such a fool
for defending my mother.

If she lied about this,

I'll never believe
another word she says.

I'll come by later, all right?

Maybe she had her reasons,
you know?

So now you're on her side?

No, Charlotte,
I'm on your side.

But maybe it's not
what it seems.

Maybe there's something more
to understand.

No, there isn't.

This is my mother
we're talking about.

Charlotte, that's not a good idea
right now. Come on.

Look, you're either with me...

Or against me.

I'm with you, Charlotte.
But this isn't you.

Just because
he's not really your dad

doesn't mean he's gonna
stop being your father.

That's exactly what it means.

Well, at least you still
have one.

My father...
is dead, Declan,

just like yours.

Truth is a battle of perceptions.

People only see what they're
prepared to confront.

Charlotte.

It's not what you
look at that matters,

but what you see.

Jack saw the tape, Nolan.

What the hell happened?

I'm sorry.
The degausser didn't work.

It's a relic.
What can I say?

Thanks to you,
Jack showed up at the Graysons'

and threatened Victoria.

Now he's in her crosshairs, too.

Thanks to me?
Jack was bound

and determined, Emily.

And do I need to remind you
how that tape

got into his hands
in the first place?

Besides, wasn't it always
part of your plan

to reveal Charlotte's paternity
at that dinner anyway?

My way, Nolan.
Now Amanda's on the run,

and Jack's
more involved than ever.

Calm down. Count to ten.
Take a breath.

We've been in worse situations before.

You'll get out
of this one, too.

Are you there?

Emily?

And when different perceptions
battle against one another...

The truth has a way
of getting lost...

Emily?

Are you there?

What's going on?

Emily?

And the monsters...

find a way of getting out.
