Sally asked if Victor backed Victoria up. While Victoria said that it was a unilateral decision, Adam knew Victor had to have signed off on it. Adam felt like Victor was playing another mind game and leaving Adam out in the cold. Sally noted that Victoria let Ashland get his hooks into the company, and now she was going back to business like she didn\u2019t cause all this chaos. Adam didn\u2019t know why he wasted his time hoping his family would give him a chance. Sally said Adam didn\u2019t need any of them. She suggested he cut ties with the Newmans and strike out on his own. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Adam said he\u2019d done that more than once, and he wasn\u2019t sure he wanted to do so again. He said that Victor had a blind acceptance of Victoria\u2019s leadership, no matter how often she screwed up. He felt like if he walked away, he\u2019d be letting Victoria win. Sally asked if that would be the worst thing. Adam said Victoria refused to acknowledge that he saved her by getting Locke out of the way. He didn\u2019t see why he should give her what she wanted by quitting. Sally said Adam had done way too much to prove himself to his family, and it was never enough. He sarcastically thanked her for rubbing it in. Her point was that he shouldn\u2019t stick around if the Newmans weren\u2019t going to show him the respect he deserved. He asked if he\u2019d really be okay with him quitting his job and leaving her here to deal with her family. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Sally hated hypotheticals. Adam still wanted an answer. Sally said she\u2019d keep her job if he quit, and she\u2019d try to win over his family. He asked why. She said she loved her job, and she had faith they\u2019d be successful wherever they chose to be. She asked if he knew how rare it was to find someone who thought the way you did, who wanted what you want and made you laugh. She asked if he ever met anyone like that. He said yes \u2013 once. She smiled. For the first time, Sally felt like she was meeting someone on their level. She said she didn\u2019t need him to be the good or bad version of himself, or what everyone else expected of him. She just wanted him \u2013 all of him. He said knowing she was willing to brave his family should make the decision to walk away easier, but it felt different this time. He was older and wiser, and he knew someone had his back. He felt like if he walked away, he\u2019d be giving up. He suggested he might also be falling for his dad\u2019s games and looking for his approval. He wasn\u2019t sure if he could ignore the challenge Victoria threw down by hiring Nikki over him. Sally said if Adam chose to fight, she\u2019d still be here, and if he walked away, she\u2019d stand by him. He took her hand. He said the only thing he had to consider was what was best for himself. She said she\u2019d continue to tell him he deserved better. She kissed him. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Diane had a nightmare that Jack and Kyle had her arrested for child abandonment. Jack accused Diane of leaving Kyle because she didn\u2019t have the patience to raise him. Diane argued that she was a good person now. Jack said she turned her back on Kyle. Diane swore she walked away because it was what was best for Kyle. Diane struggled in the grip of the police officer and begged Kyle for a second chance. The cop told Diane that letting her son think she was dead was as low as it could get. He read her her rights. Kyle snarled that Diane was a liar. Diane begged and pleaded as she was dragged away. She woke up and grabbed her phone. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">At the Abbott house, Jack said to Kyle that it wasn\u2019t easy to raise your son to have opinions of his own, then watch him grow up and make decisions that made you a little nervous. Kyle smiled. He knew Harrison would get there, and he was already dreading it. Later, Kyle took one of Harrison\u2019s cookies, and Jack teased him. Kyle said he wouldn\u2019t tell, then he said didn\u2019t want to keep things from his son. He liked to think he didn\u2019t inherit his mother\u2019s bad habits. Every time Kyle closed his eyes, he thought about the awful things Diane did. Kyle said the last time he saw Diane, as a child, before she\u2019d changed his name and sent him away, she promised she was going to join him. Instead, she chose to vanish and let him think she died. Jack asked if Diane shared her reasoning. Kyle said her reasons sounded plausible and rehearsed, like she\u2019d been waiting a long time to say them to him. Kyle wanted to know how Jack felt about this.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Jack had promised himself he wouldn\u2019t interfere and try to influence Kyle. Kyle appreciated that Jack put his own feelings aside, but now Kyle needed to figure out whether he thought Diane really changed into a good person, or if the child in him just wished it was true. Kyle noted that Harrison said dads have all the answers. Jack told Kyle to cherish that. Jack had been puzzling over the same questions Kyle was asking himself. Jack said he\u2019d asked for the benefit of the doubt more times than he could count. He\u2019d tried to put himself in Diane\u2019s shoes and asked himself why he\u2019d leave his child. Kyle said Diane\u2019s original plan, which she\u2019d worked out with Adam, was to fake her own death and take Kyle with her. Jack said Diane claimed she changed her mind because she didn\u2019t want Kyle to grow up living on the run. Jack said Diane knew he would never give up looking for her and Kyle. Kyle thought Diane should\u2019ve come to him and told him that. Jack wasn\u2019t sure Kyle would\u2019ve understood, since he\u2019d been so young. Jack asked if Kyle thought it would\u2019ve been any easier to know that Diane was out there somewhere without him. Jack thought that if Kyle knew all along that Diane was alive and on the run, he would\u2019ve spent his life asking questions, and he would\u2019ve grown into a completely different person. Jack loved the person Kyle became. Jack said maybe, this one time, Diane made the right choice in leaving the way she did. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Jack didn\u2019t condone any of the other things Diane did and he offered up no opinions on her as a person. He said she hurt a lot of people in a lot of ways. Jack wasn\u2019t sure he\u2019d have ever seen Kyle again, if Diane had stuck to her original plan and taken him with her. Jack couldn\u2019t help thinking about his own mother. He\u2019d been so angry at her for leaving him behind. When she returned, he\u2019d wanted to slam the door in her face. It was a miracle that they reconciled, and he found forgiveness and understanding, and it was one of the greatest gifts of his life. Jack wanted that for Kyle. Jack wasn\u2019t saying Diane changed, but he believed the decision to leave Kyle was the toughest one she ever made in her life. He knew that wasn\u2019t the simple answer Kyle wanted from him, but there was nothing simple about this. Kyle said it would be cool if they could run a simulation of what a future with his mother would look like. Jack asked how they\u2019d do that. Kyle said they\u2019d put Diane through the full Abbott test.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Diane got a text from Kyle inviting her over to the house.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Billy met Lily at Society. She heard his podcast, which was called the Grinning Soul. He asked if he was in the doghouse. She said she was concerned. He said the numbers for the podcast were good, and he\u2019d altered his voice and kept the names and locations anonymous. Lily said people close to the situation would know the podcast was about Ashland. \u201cIf the sociopathic shoe fits,\u201d Billy replied.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Billy said the point of the podcast was to give him an outlet to discuss the things he shouldn\u2019t publicly comment on. Lily wasn\u2019t sold on the idea of two Billys being better than one. He said Billy 1 was her right hand man, while Billy 2 was an untamed rebel. Lily loved the idea of an anonymous podcast, but she noted that he had a confrontation with Ashland, then he immediately talked about it on his podcast. She was sure anyone could connect the dots. He was sure the average listener wouldn\u2019t figure out that it was Ashland. Lily liked the message the podcast sent, but she told Billy not to be surprised if people, like Victoria, figured out he was the Grinning Soul. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Billy reminded Lily that she requested they not talk about Victoria. Lily asked how Victoria would look if people figured out the stories were about her. Billy thought people would see her as sympathetic \u2013 a loving partner deceived by the most heinous of men. He hoped Victoria would appreciate the fact that he wasn\u2019t personally getting involved in her problems. Lily asked what if Ashland figured out Billy was behind the podcast. Billy hoped Ashland did figure it out. Billy wished he could see the look on Ashland\u2019s face when he realized he was the monster under the bed and that everyone was recoiling at lies he perpetrated his entire life. Billy said Ashland needed to know actions had consequences.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Lily was angry that Ashland profited from lying about cancer, but she didn\u2019t like the idea of Billy possibly losing his platform because he wasn\u2019t being careful about how he was disseminating this information. He didn\u2019t think the podcast would be a blip on Victoria\u2019s radar, since she had other things on her mind. Jack called Billy and summoned him to the Abbott house. Billy suggested he was in the middle of something. Jack said nothing was more important than supporting Kyle. Traci, Ashley and Abby were already on their way. Billy said he\u2019d be there as soon as he could. Billy told Lily about the family meeting. She reminded him that there was a Chancellor-Winters meeting. He asked if he could get a pass on it, but she said she needed her COO. He said he\u2019d just meet his family later, since Lily and Chancellor-Winters were his top priority. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Adam and Sally rented a hotel suite and were headed upstairs when Adam saw Diane. He welcomed her to the resurrection club. She expected him to be more shocked to see her. He said that his father let him know. He noted that she\u2019d left town in a way that implicated him in her death. He\u2019d wanted to send her a Bite Me card, but he didn\u2019t know the address to Hell. She said she regretted many things about that time. He asked how she could look at herself in the mirror. At the time, she\u2019d justified her actions by telling herself that Adam was very resourceful, though she knew that wasn\u2019t an excuse. He said half the people in the town wanted her dead back then, so it was impressive when they all thought she died. He said the rule of resurrection club was not to come back once you escaped. Sally silently took in all this information, with an intrigued look.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Sally walked up and introduced herself as Adam\u2019s coworker. Diane assumed things had progressed beyond that since Adam and Sally were headed upstairs. Adam said Diane had nerve \u2013 coming to town and staying in Phyllis\u2019s hotel. Diane said he was here for Kyle, not to cause trouble. Adam noted that he and Diane made a plan for her to start a new life with Kyle, but instead, she\u2019d abandoned her son. Diane didn\u2019t try to justify what she did. She wasn\u2019t proud of her past actions, and she thought Adam could understand that. He said she wasn\u2019t above taking potshots and her former co-conspirator. Diane wasn\u2019t doing that \u2013 she\u2019d kept up with things in Genoa City, and she knew he\u2019d worked hard t turn over a new leaf. She just wanted what everyone gave him \u2013 a second chance. He hoped that was true. He didn\u2019t have the same kind of beef with her that everyone else did. He wished her luck. She left. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Sally and Adam went upstairs to their room and kissed and disrobed. Later, they cuddled in bed, and he asked how she was so perfect. He didn\u2019t mean her beautiful face or her body. He said that she didn\u2019t bombard him with questions about Diane. She said she knew he\u2019d tell her when the time was right. He asked if she was ready. She was more than ready \u2013 she\u2019d been dying to know more from the moment she heard about Diane. He said Diane was driven and obsessed, and she\u2019d stop at nothing to get what she wanted, but not in a good way, like Sally. He said he and Diane worked together to make it look like Victor was dead to drive down the price of Newman stock, and they made a sizable profit. He agreed to help her evade Jack and start a new life with her son. He did a lot of things he wasn\u2019t proud of, but he thought that scheme was semi-noble. He was a wrok in progress. He was glad Sally was in his corner \u2013 it was nice being with someone who was meeitng him on his level. She asked what he was going to do about his family\u2019s latest move. He wasn\u2019t sure. She said she\u2019d take this ride with him. They kissed. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Traci, Ashley and Abby arrived at the Abbott house. Kyle and Jack explained that Diane was on her way. Ashley couldn\u2019t believe Diane would have the nerve to come to town, let alone to this house. Kyle said she\u2019d already been here. It wasn\u2019t his first time seeing his mother. Ashley vowed to make sure this was his last time seeing Diane. Abby never would\u2019ve come if she\u2019d known Diane was coming. That was why Jack didn\u2019t tell her. Kyle explained that Diane claimed she changed and she wanted forgiveness. Ashley hoped Kyle knew that Diane was lying. Abby asked how Kyle felt about this. Ashley was sure Diane just wanted to use Kyle. Kyle wasn\u2019t sure what to think. Abby suggested that Diane wanted to do the right thing. Jack said Diane had made a compelling case for herself. Ashley scoffed. Jack shared Ashley\u2019s skepticism, but he noted that he and his sisters knew what it was like to be estranged from their mother. Ashley ordered Jack not to go there. \u201cI know our mother was a piece of work but she\u2019s nothing compared to Diane,\u201d Ashley argued. Traci stepped in to keep the peace and apologized to Kyle. Abby said they all wanted to support Kyle, no matter what he chose. Ashley apologized and asked how Kyle was feeling. He didn\u2019t know if Diane was lying, and that was why he called all of them here. It was one thing for Diane to feed Kyle a bunch of rehearsed lines, but it was another to have to face him and his family. Kyle wanted to see how Diane handled herself with the people who\u2019d seen her at her worst and see if she\u2019d sincerely changed. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Diane was running late, and Ashley hoped that meant she\u2019d gotten kicked out of town. Jack told Ashley to be nice. Kyle added that he didn\u2019t want them to bombard Diane with old grievances, because that wasn&#8217;t going to get them anywhere. Abby loathed Diane too, but she said athey were here to help Kyle discover the truth. Ashley said they\u2019d help Kyle when he realized his mother was heartless. Ashley said Diane\u2019s soul was a deep dark abyss, and she didn\u2019t believe Diane transformed. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Diane arrived, and she was startled when she saw everyone waiting for her. \u201cWelcome back, bitch\u201d Ashley said. Diane took it in stride. Traci greeted Diane in a more neutral way. Kyle said that if he was going to let Diane back in his life, it was going to affect his entire family. Diane had no desire to cause any problems with the Abbotts. Kyle said that her presence affected all of them, and they\u2019d have to decide whether they thought she was a different person now. <\/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 At Newman Media, Adam was angry that Victoria gave Nikki the co-CEO position that he thought should\u2019ve gone to him.
