After some competitive banter, Kyle goes to get his takeout; leaving Nikki to say she’d accept the job if she got to run Vibrante her way, starting with putting an end to this competition with Jabot. Leaving, Kyle locks eyes with Victoria.
Meeting Sally and her maid of honour at the cafe, Pietro’s impressed – the wedding photos will be stunning. When Billy arrives, Audra leaves Pietro to show the bride and groom a photo of Prince and Charles and Lady Di in their carriage.
Not keen on Pietro’s first two ideas, Billy and Sally are onboard with a 20’s Gatsby themed wedding. Fasten your seatbelts GC, it’s going to be a spectacular night, Pietro gushes.
Victoria agrees – she’s willing to forego the Jabot vs Vibrante social media feud – but you’ll still be in competition with Jack. Is Nikki OK with that?
Joining his parents at Jabot, Kyle’s asked what’s going on with Victoria. Excuse me? he quickly recovers to explain that they’re reviving the Vibrante-Jabot feud. Helluva way to stick it to Victor, don’tya think?
My Thoughts: Why is Victoria running Newman Enterprises all by herself anyway? Victor does nothing but meander around with his hands in his pockets and sit in his highback Victor-ian armchair to receive visitors all day long. Why not promote one or two of those ‘loyalists’ in suits who recently filed into the office to turn their nose up at Phyllis? They could also move Claire over from the publishing division. It’s not like the demand for books and magazines is on the uptick. That said, I’ve seen no indication that Victor’s overwhelmed with work. In fact, I can’t remember the last time she was at NE … Uh yes, Kyle certainly has ‘left his mark’ at Jabot, so let’s hope he at least gave the sofa in his Dad’s lounge a quick wipe down…. Hope you all had a wonderful Labour Day.
