Tuesday, July 17, 2018 (S56E75): Apology Ads

Nina is upset about where Valentin’s ads were placed in her magazine; Maxie reminds her that those ads saved the magazine this month.  Nina calms down and asks how her nephew is this morning; Maxie says her mom is watching him.  Nina says Crimson will be fine without her; Maxie says, maybe so, but she knows Nina won’t.  She tells Nina this is not work stress and asks her to talk to her; Nina confesses that Valentin is trying to win her back – Maxie noticed that by the ads.  She tells Valentin she knows about his plot to win Nina back, and says it isn’t going to work; she warns him to leave her alone, berating him for all that Nina has been going through.  She brings up the fact that he took an innocent child and gave him to a psycho; he claims he had no idea.  She laughs, then tells him to get out of Nina’s orbit and let her heal.

Valentin is pissed when Finn tells him that there is no quarantine on Spoon Island; he says he just as well be tested though.  He draws his blood and asks if he has heard from Peter; Valentin says no.  He asks about the scout; Finn says he couldn’t identify him from the picture… likely because he’s been held captive for weeks now.Curtis meets with Drew to discuss the case of Peter’s disappearance; Drew tells Curtis about Carly crashing the nuptials at the church.  Curtis, Jordan, and Sam discuss the case and plan their next move; Obrecht comes up as a possible suspect.  Finn shows up and says he has some information he thinks might help to find Peter August.  Nina gets food; Maxie questions why so much.  Nina says “storing up.”

Heinrik tells Obrecht that her plan is unraveling; he says, in time, someone is bound to find him there.  She tells him no one is riding to his rescue; he says she will be send away for kidnapping, if not murder.  He tells her she has so much to live for, reminding her that they are telling her story… he asks if she is willing to give that up.  She tells him his attempts to sway her are futile; she says she will always be seen as the outsider, adding that the only person who enjoys her company is Franco.  Heinrik says Franco should be the “poster boy for reformation” and suggests she follow his example and turn herself in before it’s too late; she snaps, “enough!”   She says she doesn’t care what happens to her; Peter guesses it’s because she blames herself for Nathan’s death.  She tells him he is to blame; Nina comes back with the food.  He asks where Valentin is; Nina tells him… he says he is too smart for that and will figure it out.  He reminds her what she’s done, and the trouble she could be in, unless she can “turn it around.”  She says she knows “a way out.”

Jake tells Franco he doesn’t want to go with his dad to the baseball game, but Franco talks him into going; Elizabeth thanks him.  Franco says he wants Jake to like his dad, even if his dad doesn’t like him.  Jason and Jake wait for the game to start; Drew shows up.  Jake runs to him and hugs him, and thanks him for coming; he tells them both, he couldn’t be happier than to have both his dads there.  He asks them if they are both okay with being there together; they both tell him they just want him to be happy.  Curtis asks Sam what went down with her and Drew last night; she says they were able to attend the wedding without the world ending.  Drew goes to get hot dogs, and Jake asks Jason about Sam.  Jason tells her what happens in the future isn’t up to him.  Drew is surprised by mustard landing on the back of his short at the hot dog stand.  A woman apologizes and offers to pay for the cleaning, handing him her card; it’s the new D.A.

Jordan comes in and tells Sam and Curtis that they checked out the cabin and found bindings on the bed; it looks like someone was held captive there.  Elizabeth sees Finn and says that Franco told her “everything” and she knows about the visit to Obrecht cabin.  He says the police know everything now too and have checked out the cabin; she tells him that Franco was going there himself.  Franco is actually at the docs; he finds the quarantine sign suspicious.  He turns around to see Obrecht standing there.  Maxie meets a new employee at Charlie’s; she recognizes him… he is an actor, who played Clocksworth in a show.  She says her daughter loved him; he was great.  Valentin goes to the bar; he recognizes the new employee… he smiles and says, “I know you.”
