-What are you doing here? -I've been calling you, -remember? -That was you? Why? What do you want? We need to talk, cuz. -You look great, Dylan. Long time no see. -Remy, you can't be here. Well, what was I supposed to do? Didn't have any luck on the phone. Yeah, 'cause you were scrambling your voice. I didn't know it was you. Well, I was being careful. Just like with this. I mean, the voice thing was because I wanted to make sure no one could hear me on speaker.
-It was mysterious, right? -No, it was weird. Okay, is this how you greet your favorite cousin? You don't get it. I just started working here. I can't lose this job. Electra and the whole family will go nuts if they see you. Especially talking to you. I considered you one of my closest friends, and I couldn't see anything changing that ever, but then something did, and it hurt, a lot. But I have a choice.
I could hold on to that pain, and I could let it affect me. Or I can try and move past it and work on us and fixing our relationship, and I know that's what you want, too. Absolutely, I do. I mean, more than anything. Electra, I will never do anything to let you down again. I promise. Look, I mean it, Electra. I will do everything I can to win back your trust and your friendship. I believe you. [laughs] -[laughs] -Okay, well, -I'll, uh, see you later then? -Yeah.
-Okay. -Okay. -[laughs] -Bye. Hey, cuz. Remy, what are you doing here? I already told you I cannot see you, especially at Forester. -I know, but we're family, and I just- -It doesn't matter. I made it clear last time you snuck in here. -Oh, my little disguise? [laughs] -Remy, this isn't funny. If anyone finds out we're related, especially Electra- Relax. She didn't see me.
Okay? You have nothing to worry about, Dylan. That is not true. With you around, I have everything to worry about. I've been in LA a while now, doing AC repair, taking odd jobs. Good for you. Yeah. I'm grateful for the work. I am so over it. This isn't what I wanna be doing. I have ambition, you know? My dream is fashion. Something Electra and I used to talk a lot about, us making it together in the fashion world. Look at her now. Electra's a success, her jewelry line's a hit.
Were you jealous? Is that why you tried to sabotage her life? I was afraid I was losing her. I hadn't figured out that part of my life yet, and she was my ride or die, so I felt like she was slipping away, and yeah, I, I guess there was some jealousy in there, too, but she was succeeding in the fashion world, and I wasn't. -Remy. -It was wrong, I know. I, I shouldn't have posted those pictures online. But unfortunately, a lot of people do it. I, I'm not making excuses for it. I'm just -saying, you know, these things happen. -Either way, it's wrong.
I know. I just want a chance to redeem myself, to show Electra and everybody else that I am a good guy. Especially to one person in particular. Who? Someone you know. Someone I love. Deke. You wanna tell me something important? Yeah, I have to. I mean, I told you that I wouldn't let you down or betray you again.
-[laughs] Is that what you're about to do? -No. No, no, no, no, no. I. Friends tell each other the truth, even when it's hard, and it could ruin everything. Is this about Will? No. Um, someone from my past recently showed up, my cousin, and it's someone that you know. I know your cousin? I swear I didn't realize until you mentioned him the other day. He used to be your best friend. Who's your cousin? Remy Pryce.
Remy's my cousin. So what, do you hate me now? No, I don't hate you. But -Remy, you have to keep your promise. -I promise I will never come here again. Good, because my life is finally back on track. I mean, I have a job that I love, and it pays the bills. I know there's not much left over each month. I'm basically living paycheck to paycheck, but that's my life now, and I am thrilled to have it. If I were to lose it. Remy, I can't lose it. Steffy supported me. I'm not gonna let her down.I'm not gonna let Elektra down -either. She's been through too much. -Mm. Because of me, because of my big screw-up.
Those deepfakes were more than a screw-up. You took so much from her doing what you did. I just thank God that she made it out, and that I have a chance to be her friend again. I'm happy for you, cuz, and for Electra, too. But what about you and Will? Come on, I know you have feelings for him. I'm not thinking about Will right now. I can't. My time for love and a relationship will come later, but I'm just. I'm focused on work, and making the most of my time at Forrester, and being a good friend to Elektra.
Remy was here in the building? Not for long. I mean, the first time he showed up I told him to leave, and I -thought I got through to him. -The first time. So he came back? The day that you said you wanted to give our friendship another chance. And I was feeling so good, and then there he was. What did he want? He's all alone in LA. [scoffs] No, I mean, I don't feel sorry for him, not at all. After learning what he did to you, I, I don't care that he's my cousin. His behavior is disgusting, and I told him that.
That's why I'm telling you now, I cannot associate with somebody who would hurt my best friend like that. Look, Remy knows what he did was wrong. He's getting help. He says he's changed -and he's not that person anymore. -You know what? He lied to me for years, Dylan, so I don't believe any of that, and I never will. I get it. I get it, and I agree. What Remy put you through was horrific. There is no excuse or way to make up for it. Electra, I'm on your side.
I hope that you can believe me. Electra's life was turned upside down by those deepfakes. Yeah, I know, and I hate myself for it. It's just I was so confused back then about myself, about my sexuality. I thought I was losing my best friend. But I have been going to therapy, and believe me, I understand that what I did was horribly wrong. I just want a second chance, you know? Especially with Deke. Please, cuz, I know you two are friends. Just promise me that when Deke comes back, you will remind him that I'm still that kind, caring guy that he fell in love with.
Remy, I cannot think about you and your love life right now. Yes, I'm concerned about myself, but I'm even more concerned about Electra. Oh, my God, I'm not some threat, Dylan. I'm not, like, a creep, okay? Mm, you say that, but you called me from a filtered phone, you come to Forrester in a disguise. I tell you to stay away, and then you show up here again while I'm with Electra. I mean, thank God she didn't see you. That would've been traumatizing for her, which -is exactly why you have to promise me- -Promise what? That you will not set foot in this building again.
You will not come near Electra or Will. Promise me that you will stay away from all of us. All right. Okay, I promise. [tense music]
