That’s all he said? Vikki then lectures Ashley for trying to take over for Victor (he’d want family in charge) You’re angling for a job right now? Abby sneers. Both she and Ashley know that Victor demoted Vikki. When Nikki steps in to say there was NO demotion, Ashley thinks her lying or out of the loop – either way, it’s not your fight. Vikki then accuses Ashley of pushing her Father over the edge when he woke up. Fighting at a time like this? a woman appears to say. OMG – Julia? Nikki greets Victor’s first wife.

At the station, Traci, Billy, Lauren and Mike are sure Jack’s innocent. There’s no forensic proof of contact – Jack should get out on bail. Gloria arrives shouting about not being updated – she wants Mike to sue the police department. She’ll be a character witness. When did this happen? (she hints that Jack was in bed with her) Do NOT make this worse for Jack by offering false alibis, Mike hisses. Jack comes out (with Paul) to note that Kyle’s not among those heading up to the courtroom.

Devon leaves Mariah and Tessa for a model-meeting Lily’s set up. When Hilary reminds that today’s her IVI appointment, Devon sees no problem – Lily set up the meeting right beside the DR office. How thoughtful, Hilary lies. After Devon goes to ‘seal the deal, Lily reminds Hilary that her contract with Devon doesn’t eliminate him dating. When Cane suddenly remembers a reservation he can’t make at a very exclusive restaurant, Maria and Tessa are thrilled to go in his place (and on him) Off to run some errands before her appointment, Hilary’s led to believe that Lily’s finally accepting Devon’s decision – this is locked in the office by her and Cane.

Julia Martin, imagine that – Nikki knows Victor will be thrilled that she’s here. Ashley agrees and introduces her daughter. Nick and Vikki are introduced – then her ex and fiance JT. Julia heard about Victor’s condition on the news – she’s here with her daughter (we work together) Victor loves working with family too, Vikki raises eyebrows between Abby and Ashley. Julia and Nikki reminisce about what it’s like to be a young girl captivated by Victor; a force of nature.



Jack’s entourage are at the club without him. Gloria can’t believe Chris beat Mike – she went on about poor Victor and made it sound like Jack had the jet gassed up and ready to skip town. Traci points out that Jack was the one to call 911. He also took time to steal Victor’s hard drive. Jack being behind bars is almost too much for Gloria to bear. Lauren has faith in Mike – and Jack’s supportive family.

In an interrogation room, Jack looks up to see that his visitor is Kyle.

Devon, your crazy bitch sister locked me in my office – tell her to let me out. On the other side of the see through doors, the Ashby’s engage in small talk as Hilary screeches that this is her fertile period. I’ll destroy you Cane!! And Lily can kiss her modelling business good bye! You have three kids – I just want one! Lily doesn’t care how many kids Hilary has – so long as they aren’t with Devon.

How are you holding up? Kyle asks. How kind of you to care – did Victor send you here? Jack’s alarmed to hear that Victor’s in surgery – what are his chances. Kyle wonders if his Dad’s asking if he’s facing charges of homicide or attempted homicide. Yes, that is what Kyle thinks of his Dad.

Julia was so touched to hear that Nikki and Victor recently renewed their vows. She was at the first wedding. Ashley remembers that one too. Nikki and Victor always had a special understanding. Nick thinks Dad did something right if three of his ex wives are here for him. The surgeon comes out to say that Victor’s out of surgery – the next few hours will be critical.



Seated outside the locked doors, the Ashby’s note that Hilary’s calmed down in there at least. Devon comes along to scold them for not answering his texts. You kept a woman locked in her office. Devon runs over to find Hilary asleep on the sofa. They’ve missed the appointment. Devon declares his sister crazy. She thinks he’ll be grateful one day (as does Cane) Get the hell out, Devon dismisses the Ashby’s and puts an arm around Hilary.

In the visiting room, Jack and Kyle argue about Ashley leaving Jabot for Newman. Kyle only voted for the amendment thinking to was to protect the company from Phyllis. He accuses his Dad of talking a big game when it comes to family – but deep down it’s not your thing. I’m proof of that. You kicked me to the curb when you hooked up with Phyllis. What has Victor offered you?! Jack knows he’s behind it. Kyle denies his life revolves around Victor (as his Dad’s does) What do you want from me? Jack asks.

Billy arrives at the hospital with shocking news; Jack’s been arrested. Nick knows he didn’t do it. Nikki too – but – Paul wouldn’t arrest Jack without reason. JT wonders if Ashley’s the reason. Billy has more news – Kyle’s back in town but didn’t attend Jack’s arraignment. He’s angry at his Dad and has been in contact with Victor. Billy reads Ashley’s text saying the results are in. After Billy leaves, Abby insists they go find out the results – NOW.

Devon sees Hilary into her suite. Lily had no right to do what she did, he doesn’t know what to say. Hilary talks about how she could comfort Sam – Lily can’t be in the same room as him. Devon tells a defeated Hilary that they don’t have to wait another month – let’s do it the old fashioned way ~kiss~ The clothes come off quickly as Devon carries Hilary to bed.





Nikki sits at Victor’s bedside – puts a hand on his forehead. He’s burning up – something’s wrong. The doctor says it’ll be a while before Victor wakes up.

After Nick leaves to check on his kids, JT thinks he and Vikki should do the same (and tell the kids the good news of their engagement before they see it on TV) Vikki makes no move to follow JT.

Kyle lambastes Jack for going after BnS, trying to take care of Dina alone – was that the best decision? You’ve always functioned on pure ego. You’ve molded yourself in Victor’s image, Jack accuses. He’s collecting Abbotts; Abby, Ashley now you. What is he offering you? You’re yelling at a man who might not make it through the night. With Victor fighting for his life and Jack looking at years in jail, Kyle thinks he came back just in time.

OK, we’ll open the file – but it won’t change anything, Ashley prepares Abby. Opening the file on her phone, Ashley shares a horrified look with Abby.l post it as soon as I can.
