Previously on 90210...
You and Silver are having
a baby together?

Kind of hard to explain.

I think this is something
we need to talk about.

You think just because
you cheated on me
that you'll be able

to walk out on our
new company? You
signed a contract.

I own you.

ANNIE:
We graduated two years ago.

So what if I thought
I'd be completing

a prestigious theater program
by now? I'm not a loser

because I haven't done that.

Cousin Emily?
Surprise!

My agent thought it would be
perfect fodder for my blog.

You have an agent and a
press tour and a blog. Wow.

The first time Patterson
whisked me away in a helicopter

for a private picnic, I knew

love had a price.

A girl came in, talking
about her dad, and I realized

that her dad
is the random trucker.

I just wanted to scream
at her and be like,

"Your dad ruined my life."

About your dad, there's
something you need to know.

He shouldn't blame himself.

It was an accident.

They voted to fire me.
Bryce convinced the
new board of directors

that the company
had outgrown me.

You're the one who hired her.

Actually, that was you.

ASHLEY:
Liam, I get paid

to protect you so you can have

some semblance of a normal life.

I'm sorry, I just

keep feeling like
someone's lurking around,

ready to pounce.

Who are you really hiding from?

Vanessa.

She's dead.

It was an accident;
I was sure that no one knew.

I guess someone's been
watching me for months.

I wish I could get into
the holiday spirit,

but I never thought my husband

would be facing the
specter of unemployment.

Ah, I mean, I knew
Max lost his job,

but I didn't think that
meant you had money trouble.

Money trouble?

Good God, no.

Ever since Bryce
had the board fire Max,

he's depressed
and it's all my fault.

You couldn't have known
she was gonna do that.

How is it your fault?

It's Naomi Clark's
fault because she

controls the fate
of all mankind.

You laugh, but that is
exactly how it feels.

I am gonna have to buy a hell

of a Christmas present
to make this up to Max.

You're not the only one
who doesn't know what to buy.

Why did I think it was a good
idea to start dating Riley

right before Christmas?

Ouch. Rookie mistake.
Exactly.

I mean, I feel like
we're going somewhere,

but I'm not sure where yet.

I want to get something
that says,

"I want to see what happens,

even if I end up
going away somewhere."

Going away?

Where are you going?

Thinking of going.

There's this writing program
in Scotland.

If I apply for a degree,
I'll be there two years.

I didn't even know
you wanted to write.

Yeah.
I didn't either.

I... I mean, then I did.

And I do. I do.

Can you tell that I don't know
how I feel about my writing yet?

Oh,

look at these little onesies.

Now I know what
I'm gonna get you for Christmas.

No. No, please don't.
I don't want to jinx it.

I'm finally almost there.

All that's left is for Teddy
to sign the release.

I thought Teddy did all
the necessary releasing.

This is for
after the baby is born.

Which we've
already talked about.

I'll do everything,
I'll be the parent.

The clinic needs it
in writing

before they'll do
the IVF transfer.

Well, it's a good thing

Teddy's still in town.

Yeah, so he signs the papers,

defrost the embryos,
pop them in the oven,

and merry Christmas.

(laughter)

Oh, do you think Max
would want one of those?

Christmas used to be so much
more fun back in the day.

Seriously, all you would
need is some colored paper,

slap some paste on it, write
"Merry Christmas, Mom and Dad,"

and you'd be done.
Yeah,

when did that stop working
for you? When you were ten?

Okay, I'm just saying.
You're just saying

that you didn't get off your
butt and get anybody a gift

and now you're
sweating it, right?

So who's on your list?

Um, Megan, Navid...

Whoa, whoa, whoa, hold up.

You said Megan?

Megan as in the cute
group therapy girl, Megan?

Wow.
You didn't waste any time

crying over Adrianna, did you?

Time out, she's just a friend,
all right?

If you were still with Ade
and you got Megan a gift,

then yeah,
you guys are just friends,

but if you're single
and you get Megan a gift then...

Okay,

look, you and Annie
are more than friends.

So what did you get her?

Well, as it happens,

I got her something
majorly brilliant.

Dodger season tickets.

You're kidding, right?
It's a long time
until summer, right?

Now, what girl wouldn't say,

"Oh, my God, he still wants me
to stick around

all the way until the end
of the World Series?" Right?

I'm about to get lucky,
my friend.

My bad.

That-that's your sister.

Yeah.

All right,
I'm gonna spot you.

THERAPIST:
Hey, Dixon.

Got your final report
from your doctor.

Uh, thank you.

Hey, Riley,

have you given any thought

to Dr. Bronson's
experimental surgery?

I mean, he thinks you're
a perfect candidate.

Yeah, I've thought about it,
but so far,

there's no miracle for a guy
with spinal cord injuries.

And I'm kind of liking
my life too much

right now to add
"maybe possibly die

in experimental surgery"
to my calendar.

So, no, thanks.

I got you. Hey,

if you change your mind,
give the doctor a call.

Oh, thanks, man.

Thanks.

(sighs)

Well?

Well, I know what
I'm getting Annie for Christmas.

(phone chirps)

Not again.

Look at this text
from Dixon.

Hmm?

"Hair UP for publicity
shots tomorrow.

And get some highlights so
you don't look so washed out."

Ever since the breakup,

he's been texting me
these "contractual obligations."

He hates me, not that
he hasn't got a right to.

It's just even harder
with Christmas coming.

Holiday break-ups
are the worst.

I try not to think
about Silver,

but I keep seeing presents
she'd like.

I got Dixon something
three months ago.

One of those die-cast cars

that he collects
and could never find.

I saw it at a flea market,
and I snapped it up.

Do you think I should
even give it to him now?

Maybe it'll be
a good peace offering.

Bring it tomorrow night
and see what happens.

Okay.

Ta-da!

I picked this up
at the Offshore.

Oh, must be from the studio.

They can always sense

when I'm out of processed cheese
and canned snails.

I should set up
some security cameras here

like I did at The Offshore,
don't you think?

You're doing a great job,
but take some time off,

do your Christmas shopping,

see some friends.

Stalkers don't take vacations.
Yeah,

but the only people that know
I'm here are you and Annie.

Speaking of The Offshore,
Navid is throwing

a little Christmas party
tomorrow night.

You should come.

Thanks.

And if anybody bothered you,
I'd be right there, so...

You know,
you don't have to stay.

I'm pretty sure my appliances
aren't going to attack me.

Okay.

I'll just double-check
the back gate.

NAOMI:
Max?

There's a car parked
in the driveway

that's blocking a very
special Christmas present

that Santa got
three speeding tickets

driving home for you.

(gasps)

Alec?

(theme music playing)

You are not welcome here, Alec.

Naomi, I thought twice,
believe me.

But I heard about what happened
to Max and I had to come over.

The past does not matter
when a friend is in trouble.

Now let me apologize for
everything I've done wrong.

I'm here to make it right.

Alec wants us
to start a new company.

We did it once,
we can do it again.

No suits,

no stockholders...

It's an idea.

Out of many possible ideas.

Naomi and I need to talk
about this, Alec.

Of course.

How could you not?

You are not seriously
considering this.

I don't know. It could be a
terrible idea. It could be...

...an okay idea, maybe.

Look, I'd never do
anything to hurt you,

but I-I have to consider
every alternative.

Okay, well, what if Bryce

said she made a mistake,
that she wants you back?

I could talk to her woman
to woman, tell her that
Phenomi-con was my fault.

Okay, I love you,
but can you

do me a favor and
stay out of this?

I have to work it
out for myself.

If that means letting
go of Data Nitrate,

then I'll live with it.

Max, you don't have to.
Naomi?

Please.

Okay?

Hey.
Hey.

Hey, sorry I am so late.

I got halfway here,
and I realized I forgot...

This.

What's this?
Some stupid thing
from the clinic.

You have to sign it,
saying you're not gonna

claim rights as the father,

blah blah blah whatever,

and then they can implant
my two little embryos

and then, maybe...

Teddy, I was shopping
for Christmas gifts this morning

and I thought,

there is nothing that
I could ever give or receive

that could ever match this.

Well, I think I have
an even better gift.

Instead of signing this,

I'd like to be
our child's father.

That's-that's not
what you wanted three days ago.

Silver, I just... I didn't
think this thing through.

There were so many questions
Shane asked

that I wish
I would have asked myself.

I mean, what if we want
to have a family one day?

Our children would have a half
brother or sister out there.

I don't have to be the bad dad
my father was.

So let's all
do this thing together.

(exhales)

Teddy, that's...

that's really sweet,
but it wasn't the plan.

Look, I know this isn't
what you expected.

But just think about it.

I don't want my kid growing up

to think he had a father
who didn't love him

or didn't care.

Oh.

Uh-oh.

Mrs. Clark-Miller.

Miller-Clark, Clara.

Bryce is expecting me.

N-No, she isn't.

Then how fun.
It'll be a surprise.

BRYCE:
You're breaking up with me

over the phone?

Nice of you to tell me now,
Todd.

We were getting married
in two weeks.

Well, how's this for honest?

You laugh like a hyena

and I hate
your stupid leather sofa.

Good-bye!

What are you doing here?

You know,
when I'm yelling at men,

I usually get really,
really thirsty.

There you go, lovely.

Better?

No.

Oh, I know this is painful.

I'm sorry you're hurt.

Oh, cut the crap, Naomi.

What do you want?

I want to tell you
I'm responsible

for you making a
terrible mistake.

If you fired Max because
of Phenomi-con,

it was not his
fault, it was mine.

And you have to
explain to the board...

It's a waste of time.

There's nothing I can do.
Someone was out to get him.

No, that's impossible.
Everyone loves Max.

Oh, why?
Because he's so perfect,

and he's your husband?

I have my own problems
right now,

so go home to your
wonderful, perfect Max

and leave me alone.

ANNIE:
Okay.

It took me a while to find
the exact perfect gift,

but I think I finally did it.

Merry Christmas.

Wow. Whoa.

You got me a Surface?

Yeah.
And it does so much.

That's the e-mail
app right there.

And when we Skype,
you can make it stand up

with the kickstand like that.

See? It'll be like
we're in the same room.

Yeah.

Does it have a touch function?

'Cause I like it much better
when we can do this.

You see?

There are still some things that
the Internet just can't do.

But if someone's away...

You trying to tell me something?

No. Well...

Yeah. Kind of.

There's this writing program
in Scotland,

and I don't even know
if I'll get in,

but if I do,
I'll be there for two years.

And I want to make sure that...

...that we keep in touch.

Yeah.

You know, the usual response

to a Christmas present
is "thank you."

Yeah.

Except this-this isn't...

a Christmas present.
This is a...

"see you later, thanks for
playing" present. Right?

What? No.

Yeah, you know what?

You know what?
Why don't you just...

take the gift back, give
it to somebody who cares.

Why are you being so mean?
Because, Annie,

you and this-this gift...

Of Skype?

You know what?

This is a waste of time.

So this guy I wrote to
about a job

just invited me to a big gamer
conference this week in Iceland.

Iceland.
Yeah.

Fun.

Let's not rush into anything

until we consider
all of our options.

Well, so far my
only other option

is that maybe Alec's right.

We should go back to
square one and start over.

Or you could see
if something happens

that means you don't have
to start over with Alec...

or go to Iceland.

Naomi.

I told you,
don't try to fix this.

NAVID:
Hey.

Oh, hey, Max.
Hey.

Uh, Naomi.

Navid, what a surprise.

What? You asked me over.

(laughs)

I never asked you over.

But since you're here,

actually, I need to talk to him.

I'll be right back.

Sure. I'm gonna...

listen to some Bjork.

I need you to help me
get Max's job back.

By going on a date
with... her.

That doesn't make it...

Oh. Wow. She's pretty.

Wait. Bryce Woodbridge?

Isn't she the ballbuster
that fired Max?

"Ballbuster" is
an offensive phrase

used to denigrate
successful women.

And yes, she absolutely is.

She also happens to be
vulnerable and lonely

and just updated her status
to "single,"

so I want you to
go out with her.

I don't even
know her.
Yes, you do.

I created a business
page for you.

You sent her a message
and asked

if she'd like
to go out for drinks.

Um, occupation--

"Small business CEO."

You are running the Offshore.

"Interests include
computer coding, solving

difficult mathematical
brain teasers."

Okay, I had the lowest
math AP score at Princeton.

She'll figure that
out in five seconds.

She won't care.

She just got dumped
by her fiancé

two weeks before their wedding.

She is open to going out with

vaguely acceptable men...
no offense.

Yeah, none taken, uh,
but what does this have

to do with Max's job?

Bryce was telling me.

Apparently, someone
was out to get Max

when he was running
Data Nitrate.

I tried to ask her who,
but she's so angry and bitter

about all the men in the world
that she wouldn't tell me.

And I was just thinking,

you could take her out,
charm her.

Maybe she'll tell you
what happened.

Did I mention she's on
the rebound and very hot?
Yeah.

Look, I'd really like
to help you with this,

and yeah, maybe I'm a
little lonely myself.
Mm-hmm.

Uh, but I really need to get
this Christmas party together,

and it's harder
than I thought.

I can't even
get any drinks.

The distributors sold out
weeks ago.

I know a guy who has a warehouse
in Bellflower.

Really? No. Thank you so much.

What...?
Ah, ah, ah.

I do for you, you do for me.

There's an e-mail
in your inbox from Bryce.

Drinks tomorrow evening.

Have fun.

(footsteps approaching)

(door closes, Annie sighs)

What if you give somebody
a really cool Christmas gift,

and they just start
yelling at you?

Is this about Riley?

I know he's not

your typical guy,
but I gave him a Surface tablet

so that we can keep in touch

when I go to this writing
program in Scotland.

Did you happen
to mention Scotland

before or after
you gave him the gift?

Sort of... during? (laughs)

And he got mad?
Mm.

Hmm. It's kind of like the time
that I told you

I was going to go work on
a fishing boat after high school

instead of going to college,
and you got upset with me.

Okay, you were talking
about leaving for

a really long time,
and it was like I wasn't

even a part of the decision.

Ugh.

Mystery solved.

Oy.

How much do you think
I can get for my bike?

Why are you selling your bike?

(sighs)

Oh, no.
Now this creep wants money?

Where did you find this?

It was delivered to the
Offshore in a gift basket.

From?
From the studio.

But anybody could have put
a note in there.

Now I got to get this money
together.

Have you told Ashley about this?

Ashley's the police.

She thinks my problem is
some random paparazzo

or a crazy stalker,
which maybe it is,

but I can't tell Ashley
about Vanessa.

I'll give you the money.

What? No.

Uh, it's my money.
I can use it however I want to.

Don't bother arguing. Just

take the money and use it
to find out who is behind this.

Or I could take the money
and make the drop,

and then beat the crap
out of him.

Liam, make the drop.

I'll videotape
the whole thing.

It's the only way
to find out who's doing this.

Oh, my God.

(sighs)

(electrical hiss, Naomi gasps)

Oh.
Hey.

Max said
you were here.

This is great.

Uh.
I brought Rudolph.

It's your turn.

(screams)

Oh, my gosh,
how many years

have we been passing
this back and forth?

Uh, since we were young enough
to fight over it.

(laughs)

You know what?

When the baby is born,

I think Rudolph here will
get his forever-home with you.

Well, it's not "when."
It's "if."

Teddy won't sign the release.

He wants to be the father.

Not the sperm-donor father.

He wants to be
the father father.

Teddy would make a
great dad. Shane, too.

Oh, my God, I wish
I had two gay dads

who loved me to pieces
and then could tell me

when my dress and my bags
were too matchy-matchy.

They're not like that.

My gay dads would be.

This is serious, Naomi.

What would this mean?

Well, it would mean
you have to share.

(sighs)

Nobody wants to share.

I don't want to
share Max with Alec.

We didn't want to share
Rudolph the Reindeer.

Sharing a kid with someone
you don't live with is like...

It's like being divorced
without ever getting married.

It's not like there isn't
an upside to joint custody.

When I was taking
care of Jacques,

I couldn't just
leave dry cat food out

and fly off to Aspen
for the weekend.

I had to watch that
nanny like a hawk.

(sighs)

And the downside?

We both know the downside, Sil.

It sucked
when my parents split up.

Didn't feel like I got two homes
and two families.

It felt like...

I had none.

I hated being stuck
in the middle.

I hated it.

Especially during the holidays.

And Teddy and Shane live
all the way in D.C.

Who knows where
I'm gonna end up?

What if I just don't want
to put my kid through all that?

You have to tell Teddy
he can't be involved.

(sighs)

He doesn't want to make the
same mistake his parents did,

but neither do you.

Here you go-- your coffees.
No, I'll get this. Here.

No, no, no, you don't
have to pay for mine.

Consider it my
Christmas gift to you.

Merry Christmas.

(laughs)
Okay.

I mean, that's like, uh,
just the perfect Christmas gift.

(laughter)

Actually, uh, speaking
about Christmas, my...

uh, my friends--
they're throwing a party,

and, uh, I would love
for you to come.

I mean, with-with... with me.

You know, I could
show you around

and introduce
you to people.

Yeah. I can't.

I'm sorry. I mean, thank you.

It was really nice
of you to ask, but...

No, I-I get it.
You know, it's, um...

I guess I shouldn't have assumed
that since you got me a coffee,

that we'd be spending
Christmas together.

No. It's not that. It...

It's just, this is the first
Christmas since the accident.

It's really weird
without my dad.

Yeah. Yeah, I'm...

I'm sorry, Megan.

No, it's not your fault.

It's just,
there are so many things

this time of year that remind me
of what I've lost.

Whatever I do
to feel better, it just...

it's still there,

like a big hand
squeezing my heart.

He's never coming back.

I'm sorry.
You didn't even know my dad.

Uh... no. Um...

I understand.

I really do.

(sighs)

Hey, Ashley.
Have you seen Liam?

No. He just took off.

He said he had some top secret
Christmas shopping to do,

so I couldn't come.

Can you tell him
that I saw Vanessa,

and she's back in town?

Vanessa?

The Vanessa he was engaged to?

He told you about her?

No, but it's my job
to know about these things.

Okay, well, then you know
that she's totally crazy.

She's this con artist,
and she lied to him,

and did a lot of other
really bizarre stuff,

and then robs him blind
and left.

Nobody could believe it
when they actually

got back together
and got engaged.

Then suddenly,
she disappeared, thank God,

but now she's back.

Are you sure it was Vanessa?

I only saw her for a second

at the hair salon,
but when I snuck a look

at the appointment book, the
name said "Elizabeth McManus."

Annie found, like, ten
I.D. cards in her purse once,

and that was one of the names.

(ringtone plays)

Uh!

Dixon again.

Apparently, my highlights are
too subtle.

Can you please just warn Liam
for me?

Of course.

Thanks.

Adrianna,
can you do me

a favor and not
mention this to anyone else?

I want to keep tabs on Vanessa,
and I don't want her tipped off.

Exes can be dangerous.

Yeah, for sure.

(doorbell rings)

What's up?

So what's this about
you not coming to the
Christmas party?

I'm not in the mood for a party.

I had a fight with your sister.

So? Everybody fights
with my sister.

Join the club.

Just, uh, put on
some decent clothes.

Stop being a baby.

Hey, um, remember when you said

I probably don't look at Megan
as just a friend?

So now you're realizing that you
don't think of Megan

as just a friend. Okay.

What's she think of you as?

Maybe she's thinking of me
as more than a friend as well.

Except she doesn't know
that I was in the accident

that killed her dad.

Good move.

Yeah. Save some surprises
for the wedding night.

I didn't tell her because I
didn't want to upset her, okay?

I didn't even know that
we were gonna be friends.

Now there's like a big wall up
between us

that she doesn't
even know about.

So tear down that wall,
Mr. Gorbachev.

Look, you need to tell her
as soon as possible.

Like at the party tonight.

Well, luckily,
she won't be there.

So I got to go hang out
with Annie,

but you don't have
to face a girl

that you're not even mad at?
Nice.

Dude, what are you
so jacked up about?

Annie got you a freaking tablet.

It's not about the gift.

The first thing that went
through Annie's mind when

this Scotland thing came up was,

was that we should
keep in touch.

Yeah, so?

Because she doesn't think
that I can go.

Look, dude,
you don't know that, right?

This whole wheelchair thing,
this isn't new to me.

I act like it doesn't
change anything,

but I know that it does.

You know, eventually
she's either gonna feel

like she can't take
this on anymore

or that I'm holding her back.
Stop.

Stop! You're having this whole
conversation with yourself.

Okay, look, if
you're worried,

why not just tell her, huh?
See what happens?

Why don't you tell Megan
about the accident?

It must be hard
running a business
like Data Nitrate,

lots of people wanting
lots of things.

(both laugh)

It has its ups and downs,
that's for sure.
Yeah.

It's nice
to get out, though.

Yeah, isn't it?

Well, what are some
of the ups and downs?

Like, going to the board
to get someone hired or fired

because of something someone
else said about somebody?

Uh, I'm not sure
I know what you mean.

Yeah, me neither.

Hey, do you want
fried calamari?

I hear it's
really good.

If you're hungry.

Okay, maybe we'll pass
the fried. That's fine.

No, I'm sorry. It was

just the appletinis.

I just broke up with my fiancé,

and appletinis were
our favorite drink.

It's, it's dumb.

No, it's not. It's Christmas.

I just broke up
with my old girlfriend,

and I'm even over it,
but I still feel pretty awful.

Really? What happened?

Ah, it's a long story.

You want a Cosmo?

Sure.

No, no one in Silicon Valley
will return my calls.

It's like I'm
suddenly a nobody.

Honey, it's the holidays.

Everything's
gonna be fine.

Just let go, and let Naomi.

Hand me some holly
sprigs, please.

You know what? I'm really
not in a party mood.

I'm just gonna head home.

Babe, will you please
stop worrying, okay?

As if I would just stand by

when I know that Bryce
can be convinced.

Bryce?

What are you talking
about? Bryce?

Well, you do want your
job back, don't you?

I didn't want you to interfere.

I know, but...

No, you don't.

If you listened to
me, you might know,

but... that's not
how you do things.

Oh, well, excuse me.

Excuse me for-for-for not
wanting to see you in pain.

Excuse me for wanting to make
your life a little bit better.

Naomi, what you want is to fix

your nice, little
picture of the world,

where-where Naomi Miller-Clark
and-and Max Clark-Miller live

happily ever after
without anyone

or anything that
you don't like.

Wow.
But guess what.

No, Naomi, guess what.

You got your wish.

Because thanks to you
not listening to me,

I-I have nothing
and no one but you.

Oh, that's great, Max.

That's really great!

(police siren wailing)

Ashley?

(sighing)

I thought you were a real cop.

What's wrong?

I need to know
where you're going.

I have to keep you safe.

I'm fine.

Go to the party. Relax.

See you later.

I can't let you do that.

What do you mean you
can't let me do that?

Liam, you need to
tell me the truth.

You work for me. I don't
have to tell you anything.

Actually, I work
for the LAPD,

and you're right, you don't
have to tell me anything.

You have the right
to remain silent...

What are you doing?

You're under arrest.

(chuckling)

Mmm.

So now she's having a baby

with, uh, this gay
friend of ours,

and I-I'm happy for her.

I just, I feel like a dope
for hanging on so long.

Well, I won't be waiting
by the phone for Todd to call.

(glasses clinking)

I wasted two years
on this guy Alec

who never wanted to be
more than friends.

Alec?

Yeah, although maybe
being friends is

the better way to go.

At least Alec got me my job.

H-How did Alec do that?

He told me exactly what
to say in the interview

in order to impress
his former partner.

All I had to do was
promise to fire the guy
once I got the job.

(coughs)

Here to help us
ring in the holidays--

Merry Christmas.

Yeah.

Ah, Teddy, um,

about what you offered,

I was touched.

I thought it was

really quite lovely,

and, um, you know,
I-I totally understand,

but I really want
to do this alone,

and I can't thank you enough.

What? No, Silver,
this isn't something

you can just thank me
for and walk away.

I mean, why isn't
this a good thing?

What's wrong with help
from me and Shane?

It's not about that.

It's about not complicating
my life or my child's life.

You mean our child.

Please don't do this to me.
What am I doing?

I'm just trying to be a
part of my baby's life.

It's not yours, okay?

We made a deal,
you gave me something,

and you can't
just take it away.

Silver, this...

No, I...

I managed to spruce up
your little Christmas party.

Tegan and Sara came
into town for 24 hours,

Hey, Naomi, listen, uh...
What?

Bryce didn't tell you
anything.

You know what?

Honestly
that's fine with me.

Yeah, it was Alec.

That's who
wanted Max out.

He got Bryce
the CEO job.

Alec-- what are you
talking about?

No, I got Bryce.

Yeah, Alec made
sure you did.

He told her
what to say

and he told her the job was
hers if she'd get Max fired.

Yeah, sorry about that.

Where's my money?

I need

I can't let you go

Okay, I-I don't know what
you're talking about,

but, believe me, that's
not going to happen.

Stop lying to me.

Adrianna was
so worried

this morning
when she saw Vanessa,

she told me everything.

What?

No, 'cause,
believe me,

she did not see
Vanessa this morning.

She did.

Stop pretending
you don't know she's back.

You were on your way
to meet her.

That's who sent
me the letter.

Ashley, y-you got
to let me go.

I-I got to go see Vanessa.

So you're just going
to go to her

after all the things
she did to you?

Yes, yes, I have to.

my problems tonight.

No, it wasn't fine,

You can't ask him

Um, I stopped
by the party,

but they said you left.

Yeah, uh... you
didn't miss much.

I missed you.

Uh, staying
at home by myself

didn't make me happy.

the only thing that does--

no matter how much
I miss my dad-- is you.

make me happy, too.

your dad and the accident...

I was in the
other car.

Th-That's, that's
how I got hurt.

I-I was there when
your dad died.

Look, look, I'm so sorry.

The only reason I
didn't tell you is

'cause I thought
you'd hate me.

Where is this coming from?

No talking.

(knocking)

Whose life are you trying to
ruin, Alec, mine or Max's?

What? Naomi...

I know what you did.

(panting)

You got Bryce her job,
had her fire Max

for what, revenge?

I don't know what
you're talking about.

Oh, spare me the denial
and the lies, please.

You got rid of Madison,
you tried to get rid of me.

When that didn't work,
Alec, you destroyed

the only other thing
that Max really loved--

the company he built.

No, we built-- Max
and I together.

Okay, so, what, if you can't
have him, no one else can?

It's, it's like you, you tried
to get rid of everybody

and everything in his life
except you,

like you're some crazy
ex-girlfriend

or you're in love with him
or... something.

Oh, my God, you are,
aren't you?

Okay, see, now you're
just talking crazy.

Does he know?

Please don't tell him.

(sighs)

I knew he could never be
more than a friend, okay,

but I-I just kept feeling

like he was getting pulled away
from me.

I know what I did was wrong,
but I didn't want to lose him.

(sighs)

So you tried to make things
the way you wanted them.

No matter what Max wanted
or if he got hurt.

I can't expect you
to understand.

No, I understand
all too well.
