Recap written by Barbara

Chelsea goes over to Crimson Lights, where she shares her concern with Sharon about Adam teaming up with Nick to go after Matt in Las Vegas. Sharon assures Chelsea that Adam will be able to handle any bad associations from his past in Vegas that might be dredged up and will have Nick there for support.

Meanwhile, the two brothers go over to the Newman ranch to let their father know that they got a lead on Matt being in Las Vegas and they are heading there to follow up on it. Victor tells his sons that he’s happy that they are working together to protect the family, advising caution.

Victoria enters and announces that she is heading to Milan to meet with Summer and that Victor is holding Jack hostage to “pressure Phyllis and/or Billy” into returning Chancellor to the family. Nick is shocked and appalled by this and by Victoria being ok with it.

Nikki shows up at the Abbott mansion to talk to Traci about Jack’s disappearance. She informs Traci that Victor has had Jack abducted in exchange for Chancellor and Jack is on a yacht on Lake Michigan with a woman. When Traci brings up how Lily and her children were part of Victor’s scheme to abduct them, Nikki indicates that Victor not only wants Chancellor back, but he also wants to punish Jack so this abduction has been against Jack’s will. She also tells Traci that Victor could have arranged for the woman to seduce Jack. Traci tells her not to worry and that Jack would not succumb to temptation.

Billy, Kyle and Diane are able to get to the yacht where a drugged up Jack is giving into having sex with a relentless Patty Williams. Diane bursts into the bedroom and catches Jack and Patty in bed together immediately afterward, with Billy and Kyle racing in right behind Diane. Patty declares that it’s a party with all the Abbott men in one place. Diane is livid and when Patty gets dressed and is made to leave the room with Billy and Kyle, Diane slaps Jack across the face.

After Traci and Nikki find out that Jack has been found safe, Nikki confronts Victor with this news in front of their children when she returns to the Newman ranch. Victor doesn’t believe her and leaves to find out more. Nick argues with Victoria about her dragging his daughter into their father’s battle to get the family legacy back from Phyllis.

After the Newman siblings leave, Victor returns and Nikki expresses her disgust about what he did to Jack. He tells her that he did it for his family’s sake. She says she does not know that she will be able to forgive him for it. He indicates that he doesn’t give a damn and screams at her to get out now.

Paulina called him out for the tough choice he gave her. She knew he wanted to sell the technology to the highest bidder. He wondered if she wanted to end the project since Lexie coming back to life would complicate her life. Paulina stormed out of the lab. EJ wanted to know if she would stop the miracle from happening. After Paulina left, the Phoenix ring on EJ’s finger started shaking, and he tried to steady it. Javi called Leo. Leo told him that he missed him. Javi appreciated the fact that Leo gave him the space to think about things. While he was gone, Javi realized how much he missed Leo. Leo was relieved to hear that. Javi asked him if he could finally commit to him and get over Dimitri? Leo avoided answering his question, but it didn’t matter because Dimitri got out of the shower wondering who he was talking to. Javi heard him and couldn’t believe that Leo was with him. He hung up the phone.

Gwen wanted Melinda to be her attorney instead of representing Dimitri. She reminded Melinda that Dimitri was in Alamania and wouldn’t be coming back. Gwen told her that Dimitri voided their contract when he left town. Melinda wasn’t sure that Gwen would win. Gwen warned her that she would be making a mistake if she didn’t take her as a client. She also said that she would be making an enemy. Melinda wasn’t intimidated by her and walked out the door. No one wanted to take Gwen’s case so she was in a bad mood when EJ came home. He was in a bad mood too and yelled at Gwen. EJ told her about Paulina. Abe talked to Roman about Lexie. He let Roman know that he was thinking about Lexie a lot since Theo got pulled into DiMera. Abe broke down and told Roman that Paulina healed him, but Lexie was still in his heart.

Recap written by Barbara

Adam and Chelsea are out to dinner at GCAC, although neither of them have an appetite because of how upset they are about the loss of the Newman family legacy to Phyllis and Billy. They discuss the impact it will have on the various Newman family members and Adam expresses his appreciation of Chelsea’s support. They joke about what kinds of jobs they could get when the Newman money runs out, including him being a card shark again and her returning to running cons. She says she could be his shill.
Billy comes to Phyllis’s office to demand that she get the contract that will give him Chancellor signed within an hour because Victor kidnapped Jack and will not release him until Billy gives Victor Chancellor back.
He then meets up with Diane and Kyle at Society and lets them know that Phyllis is giving him a hard time about signing the contract. He also expresses uncertainty about whether Jack is actually in danger from Victor without proof. After pressure from Diane and Kyle, Billy texts Victor and tells him to send him proof that he has his brother and he will make sure Victor gets Chancellor back. Shortly thereafter, Billy gets a text from an unknown number with a picture dated the day before with Jack looking unconscious wearing the shirt Diane last saw him in. Billy thinks it must be from Victor using a burner phone.
Phyllis goes to the Newman ranch to meet with Victor. She lets him know that she still owns Chancellor and if he wants it back, he will have to negotiate with her, not Billy. Victor says it’s a demand, not a negotiation and Phyllis capitulates. She says she will give him Chancellor back if he releases Lily, the twins and Jack. Victor is shocked and skeptical and gets her to admit that she just wants her children to love and respect her so she will give up Chancellor for their sake. Victor is distrustful, tells her to give him an hour, during which time she is to get the papers drawn up and then they’ll see. He warns her not to ever start negotiating again or the deal is off.
A bewildered Jack finds himself in a bedroom stranded on a lake in a yacht with Patty Williams, who says she is rehabilitated and wants to make amends. Jack is skeptical, infuriated and wants nothing to do with her. She leaves him in the room and comes back with food and drinks for him, which he refuses. She taste tests everything to prove it’s not poisoned and after she expresses deep regret for the mistakes she made with him and his family and describes the excruciatingly difficult work she did on herself to get well in the psychiatric facility, Jack warms up to her attempt at redemption and forgiveness. He says he could see his way to believing and forgiving her if she gets them to shore together where they can eventually go their separate ways and she can go back to rebuilding herself. Patty tells him that’s not an option because she’s not the one in charge here.
