Listen to me. Jack Abbott who merged our companies, Newman with Jabot, is not the Jack Abbott we all know. All right? He wanted to threaten my family, he wanted to kill me.

Victor, he has always been a threat according to you.

This is different. I'm telling you.

Yes, it's different because you shot him...

To protect my family.

Oh, my God. You always use that excuse. You have gone too far this time.

Listen to me. I did what I had to do. And you, by the way, did not have to tell Paul Williams that I lied about my alibi. I would never do that to you. I will protect you to the grave.
