She mentioned that he got up and left the house early. She was surprised he was there. She just came to tie up some loose ends before the temporary CEO took over. She asked if he had a plan he wanted to share yet. He was having second thoughts about the trip. She reminded him that he was the one who decided to cancel. He still thought that was the smartest move, because it would give them time to prove Adam was setting him up. However, he\u2019d looked forward to having time with her away from the searing eyes and false accusations. She joked that it was also known as a typical Newman dinner. He knew this was taking a toll on her. She said they\u2019d keep each other strong. He told her he had the skin of a woolly mammoth, but she said that wasn\u2019t true. He stated that she knew him better than anyone, and it was true that this was starting to wear on him. He lamented that they wouldn\u2019t have the chance to reconnect, but he said they&#8217;d get back to Tuscany eventually. She said in the meantime, they\u2019d create an oasis for themselves while they searched for proof.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Victoria sensed Ashland wanted to say something. He said if he\u2019d known the universe was saving her for him, he would\u2019ve lived an entirely different, more wholesome life. He stated that she temporarily sacrificed the job she worked her entire life for to stand by him. He wished he could make up for it. She said this was was her choice, and she felt good about it. He never thought he could love someone as deeply as he loved her. He was scared she could just walk away from him if she believed the lies. She asked if he was doubting the plan. He wasn\u2019t sure they were on the right path. He revealed that he snuck into Adam\u2019s office and got into his computer. He didn\u2019t find any evidence that Adam framed him. Victoria said Adam was too smart to leave a digital trail. She said they had to dig deeper. He wasn\u2019t sure he wanted to. She was adamant that they\u2019d uncover Adam\u2019s mistakes. He said when he was in Adam\u2019s office, he overheard Adam and Sally outside. In that moment, Ashland realized he was behaving like a lowlife criminal. He said he\u2019d done things like that in the past, but he put that life behind him when he fell in love with her. Now that man was back again, and he hated himself for it. He said the only way for this plan to work would be to go further down that path, and he was afraid it would destroy their love for good.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Victoria maintained that fighting together would only strengthen their love. Ashland was concerned they might cross a line while protecting their love that would only destroy it in the end. Victoria asked if Ashland thought Adam was guilty. He thought Adam was the most obvious culprit, but they didn\u2019t find any proof. Victoria said Adam was good at covering his tracks. Ashland replied that time was of the essence, which meant they\u2019d have to fabricate proof against Adam in order to make the plan work. He couldn\u2019t in good conscience ask her to be part of that. \u201cDo you understand what we are about to do? We are about to embark on a scheme to defraud. Exactly the same thing that your family is accusing me of doing and that lie almost cost me your trust and your love. Now as far as I know, unless you\u2019re keeping something from me, you\u2019ve never been an active participant in anything like this,\u201d he stated. She said she stood by him when he, Adam and Victor turned the tables on Billy. He reminded her that she chose to stay out of that plot. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Victoria said she might feel different if they were framing an innocent man, but they were talking about holding a guilty man responsible for what he\u2019d done. She revealed that Adam once conspired with Jack to fake a diary where Victor confessed to murdering a man. Ashland said that was the old Adam. Victoria didn\u2019t believe Adam changed. Ashland asked what if they were wrong, and Adam was innocent. He couldn\u2019t live with himself if she one day regretted the choices she was making today and she resented him for leading her down that path. She asked where the doubt was coming from \u2013 earlier he\u2019d seemed sure Adam was guilty. He said that Adam was guilty but this was putting her in an impossible position. He\u2019d kept things about his past from her because he didn\u2019t want to taint what they shared. He said if she did this, she\u2019d know how low she was sinking, and she\u2019d tell herself she was doing it for him, but one day, she\u2019d blame him for making her cross that line. He held her and said he loved her so much, but he was afraid he was taking her to the point of no return. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Victoria took Ashland\u2019s hands and said that she wasn\u2019t afraid to cross that line to protect him and his reputation. He said they could just walk away \u2013 go somewhere else and start something new. She asked if he could really reset his life again, like he did when he buried Bobby DeFranco and started over as Ashland Locke? He said they\u2019d start a new empire together. He told her that she was the only thing that mattered to him. He never believed he could feel this intensely about anything, and he wanted to protect that and protect her. \u201cIt could be incredible; making something of our very own,\u201d he said. He said there was no pressure. He was going to go home for awhile. She asked if he felt okay. He was fine, he just needed to rest. He left. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Victor went to Adam\u2019s office and asked if there was any evidence Ashland was moving forward with his plan. According to Adam, there was no indication Ashland planted files on Adam\u2019s computer. Adam wanted to know what to expect as Victoria\u2019s plan unfolded. He asked how much warning he was going to get as things moved along and what to expect when he was busted for framing Ashland. He asked what he was supposed to tell Connor. He asked if Victor really thought this plan was their smartest move. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Victor wondered why Adam was questioning Victoria\u2019s plan. Adam felt he should be entitled to do so, since the plan revolved around him. Victor said Ashland took the bait and he\u2019d now come up with \u201cproof\u201d Adam was out to get him. \u201cWhich everyone will believe because hey, it\u2019s Adam,\u201d Adam replied. Victor clarified that it was a charade. Victor said they\u2019d apologize to Ashland and ask him for evidence, and Ashland would plant that evidence in Adam\u2019s computer. Adam said Ashland might figure it out, since he\u2019d outwitted them many times. Victor said they\u2019d catch Ashland red-handed, and then Victor would have a reason to nullify Ashland\u2019s contract with Newman Locke, then Victoria would be free and Adam would emerge unscathed. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Adam understood the plan, and he\u2019d stick to his role of the black sheep, but he was a little tired of always having to prove he was a team player. He said he improved Victoria\u2019s plan by saying he should stay on as temporary CEO so that Victor could pretend to fire him when Ashland planted and then found the evidence. Adam thought it sounded great on paper, but Victoria\u2019s plan had a ton of potential pitfalls. He said Victoria was inspired by Billy\u2019s plan to trick Adam into publishing disparaging articles about Billy\u2019s drinking. It was a scheme so weak that when Victoria found out about it, she shut it down. Adam said the plan hinged on Ashland finding fake evidence, but when Adam gave him access, he didn\u2019t take it. Adam wondered if Ashland knew Adam gave him access to the computer. Victor said Ashland\u2019s days at the family business were numbered one way or the other. Adam wanted to talk about the business. Victor said that after all this was finished, Adam would be CEO of Newman Media, and Victoria would be sole CEO of Newman Locke. Adam intende to play his role, but he thought Victor had too much faith in a half-baked plan that Ashland might already see through. He was concerned Ashland might be planning his next move. Victor was unfazed \u2013 he said this was a chess game, and he was very good at it.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Later, Victor was with gone and Sally was with Adam. She asked how things went. He told her that Victor said Adam would be going back to his old job once Victoria\u2019s plan succeeded. Sally didn\u2019t think it was right that Adam was just going to get discarded after the plan was finished, without even getting a chance to prove he was the better leader. She noted that the plan couldn\u2019t even work without Adam. She wished she\u2019d been at the office earlier to make sure Victor understood Adam\u2019s concerns about the plan. Adam said he laid it all out, but Victor just disagreed. The only thing Adam didn\u2019t mention was that Ashland had been blaming Victor all along, so the family could\u2019ve let Victor be the fall guy instead. Adam thought he was chosen to be the fall guy in Victoria\u2019s plan because the family viewed him as the disposable one. Sally said Victoria might think that, but Victor didn\u2019t, and Nick was on Adam\u2019s side too. She encouraged him to bide his time and play along so he\u2019d have more opportunities to prove himself. She noted that he sold Victor on the idea of the streaming service. He said that might have backfired \u2013 his pitch was about creative content, and that might have convinced Victor that Adam belonged at Newman Media. Sally said it wasn\u2019t that bad at this company. Adam said he\u2019d never be the kind of heir Victoria represented. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Adam tried to be good. He felt he was doing a monumental job walking the straight and narrow. He donated a kidney to Faith, and you\u2019d think that would persuade everyone once and for all. He got Gaines out of the way at Victoria\u2019s wedding, and he was the reason she was able to marry Ashland. He supposed that meant this was all his fault. He\u2019d tried to be the best father he could be to Connor. He did right by Chelsea. Sally said Adam had been more forgiving than she would\u2019ve been. Adam said he gave Chelsea a job, he didn\u2019t fight her for full custody and he tried not to break her heart. He\u2019d done the right thing. The old Adam wouldn\u2019t have known what the right thing even meant. He was finally getting to a place where his family was trusting and including him. He proved he wasn\u2019t like Locke, and he got rewarded by being made the fall guy, and once his services were no longer needed, like a punching bag, his family was going to kick him to the curb. He wondered what the point to being the good guy was if his family\u2019s perception of him hadn\u2019t changed. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Sally opined that being the head of Newman Media was not exactly getting kicked to the curb. She said Adam was the head of a major communications company that he\u2019d turned into an unmitigated success. She told him not to give up because Victor made one of his transparent power moves. \u201c[Victor] obviously was mad that you were challenging the plan, so he put you in your place by reminding you that he has the power to demote you. But he also has the power to promote you, so if you want to be a leader, lead and don\u2019t look for permission,\u201d she said. She also thought he should count himself lucky for all the opportunities he\u2019d been handed because most people didn\u2019t get the millions of chances he\u2019d gotten to reinvent himself, and they didn\u2019t have the resources at their disposal. He thanked Sally for the honesty and for reminding him that it was easy for him to sound like a selfish insensitive jerk. He knew she\u2019d had to work a lot harder than he did to get to where she was. From her brief exposure to the Newman family dynamics, she thought he was a saint for what he\u2019d had to put up with. She knew he\u2019d had to jump through hoops to get to where he was too. She told him not to let this get under his skin. She said he\u2019d done a monumental job of turning his life around. He was glad she didn\u2019t know the old him. She said the Adam she was with now was phenomenal, and she said he\u2019d get a chance to make a move, and when he did, it would be amazing.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">At Crimson Lights, Sharon talked to Nick about Mariah and Tessa\u2019s Friday the Thirteenth wedding. She said they\u2019d probably get married under a ladder to thumb their noses at superstition. Nick thought the wedding date was weird at first, but now he was coming around. Sharon was concerned because there wasn\u2019t much time to get ready for the wedding, which was in May. The 70s glam theme Noah came up with would take a lot of time. She thought they should have daily meetings about this from now until the night of the wedding.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Nick said that if Tessa and Mariah thought they could pull the 13<sup>th<\/sup> off, everyone could make it work. Sharon asked Nick to scour the entire Midwest for authentic 70s d\u00e9cor, and he accepted the task. She asked what was wrong with him. He was worried about Victoria and Ashland and Victoria\u2019s plan. He didn\u2019t bring it up earlier while they were discussing the wedding. Sharon said the last thing Mariah and Tessa needed was to hear about a marriage based on lies. Nick appreciated the diversion the wedding gave him. Sharon asked if Nick wanted to talk about the plan. He thought it best if she didn\u2019t know what it was. He said that Victoria\u2019s plan made her complicit, and he thought that crossed a line. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Nick was worried for Victoria\u2019s safety. He was glad Victoria didn\u2019t seem to buy Ashland\u2019s claims, but a lot could go wrong. Sharon thought Ashland was despicable. Nick knew Ashland was trouble from the start. Every time Nick thought Ashland sunk as far as possible, he hit a new rock bottom. Nick said Victoria was determined to handle this on her own. The only saving grace was that Victor had his security team on Victoria. It worried Sharon that Victor thought this was necessary. She said that Nick could be in danger too, because there was no telling where Ashland would draw the line if he felt like the whole Newman family was antagonizing him.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Nick said this plan was just complicated, involving a lot of moving parts and loose cannons. Sharon asked if Adam was involved. Nick thought Sharon said she already had enough to worry about with the Friday the 13<sup>th<\/sup> wedding. Sharon saw Ashland come in and head their way. She warned Nick, who said he was going to leave because he couldn\u2019t control himself around Ashland. Ashland came up and said hi. Nick left. Ashland guessed Sharon knew why he\u2019d fallen out of the Newman\u2019s good graces. He asked if he could get coffee anyway. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Sharon started to make coffee, and Ashland mused that it would probably be the coldest cup he\u2019d ever had. Sharon noted that he could go to another establishment. He acknowledged that he should thank her for not refusing him service. She said she gave the cold shoulder to everyone who pretended to have cancer. He heard about her recent health crisis and he was sorry she had to go through that, but he was innocent. She wanted to give him the benefit of the doubt, but\u2026 Before she could say more, Adam and Sally walked in. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Sharon served Ashland. \u201cYou know, when I was sick I found that green tea \u2013 oh what am I talking about. Barking up the wrong tree,\u201d she said. He\u2019d hoped she\u2019d give him the benefit of the doubt. He intended to exonerate himself. She excused herself and went in the back. Adam asked Sally for a moment with Ashland. Adam approached Ashland, who called him the new pretend CEO. Adam had an offer to make. \u201cBy whose authority do you make this offer?,\u201d Ashland asked. Adam was speaking under his own authority and representing the Newman family. He offered Ashland half a billion dollars to leave and start over somewhere else. \u201cYou leave Newman Locke, you leave Victoria. Today.\u201d Adam stated. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Nikki went to Victoria\u2019s office and said she saw Ashland leave. She asked what was going on. Victoria brought Nikki up to speed. She said she practically had to beg Ashland to frame Adam, so that he would believe she was still on his side. Nikki said Ashland wanted Victoria to believe he actually loved her and that he suddenly had a conscience. She called him despicable. Victoria said that Ashland had never sounded as sincere as he did today. Nikki was adamant that Ashland was a liar and conman. Victoria thought there was more to it. Nikki didn\u2019t want Victoria to fool herself \u2013 she said Ashland knew his days were numbered and he was looking for a clean exit. Victoria revealed that Ashland asked if she\u2019d walk away from the family and the company and start fresh. \u201cAs if either one of you would walk away from your companies. I think he has grown suspicious and he is testing you,\u201d Nikki said. Nikki was hoping Victoria wasn\u2019t tempted to run away with Ashland. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Nick came into the office. Nikki told him Ashland seemed conflicted about framing Adam. Nick said he never liked the plan, because it forced Victoria to cross a line he wasn\u2019t comfortable with. Victoria said that was funny because Ashland said the same thing. Nick guessed that was the one thing he and Ashland had in common. She said she wasn\u2019t selling her soul to to oust her husband \u2013 she was just allowing Ashland to perpetuate the crime of coming up with false evidence to frame Adam. She thought it was the strongest plan they had. Victor walked in and heard that Ashland was having second thoughts. Nikki asked if there was a part of Victoria that was still in love with Ashland. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/tvmeg.com\/index.php\/daytime\/days\/\">Back to the Main Days of Our Lives Page<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/tvmeg.com\/index.php\/2021\/12\/30\/daytime-soap-updates\/\">Back to the Main Daytime Updates Page<\/a><\/p>\n<script async src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js\"><\/script>\r\n<!-- TVMEGBODY -->\r\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\r\n     style=\"display:block\"\r\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-1056557952271337\"\r\n     data-ad-slot=\"8801203268\"\r\n     data-ad-format=\"auto\"\r\n     data-full-width-responsive=\"true\"><\/ins>\r\n<script>\r\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\r\n<\/script>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-6098\" src=\"https:\/\/tvmeg.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/yranim2.gif\" alt=\"Y&amp;R cast animation\" width=\"202\" height=\"200\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Young &amp; The Restless Update Recap written by Christine Victoria went to work and found Ashland staring out the window.
