And each area of concern for our hero is a different style.<\/p>\n<p>Billy: Yeah, family, work, romance. I get it. It&#8217;s all here.<\/p>\n<p>Chelsea: Right. Right. So, part of the challenge is balancing the three.<\/p>\n<p>Billy: And that depends on the stage in the life of the hero.<\/p>\n<p>Chelsea: Yep.<\/p>\n<p>Billy: It&#8217;s &#8212; it&#8217;s great.<\/p>\n<p>Chelsea: Yes!<\/p>\n<p>Billy: You&#8217;re really onto something.<\/p>\n<p>Chelsea: Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes.<\/p>\n<p>[ Laughs ]<\/p>\n<p>[ Knock on door ]<\/p>\n<p>Chloe: Chelsea, are you home?<\/p>\n<p>Chelsea: Oh.<\/p>\n<p>[ Both chuckle ]<\/p>\n<p>[ Clears throat ]<\/p>\n<p>[ Door opens ] Hi! This is a surprise!<\/p>\n<p>Chloe: Hi. Yeah. Sorry for just showing up, but i was in the neighborhood, and i just wanted to check in and see how you were doing.<\/p>\n<p>Chelsea: Yeah. I&#8217;m good. Well, come on in.<\/p>\n<p>Chloe: Okay. Thanks.<\/p>\n<p>Billy: Hey, chloe.<\/p>\n<p>Chloe: Hi. Um, look who&#8217;s here. I &#8212; I&#8217;m so sorry. I didn&#8217;t realize that you had company. Is this a bad time?<\/p>\n<p>Nikki: I was so happy to get your invitation. We haven&#8217;t been able to catch up in a while.<\/p>\n<p>Summer: I know. That&#8217;s my fault. Um, things have been really hectic lately.<\/p>\n<p>Nikki: Hectic? What&#8217;s bothering you, honey? Or do I already know?<\/p>\n<p>Summer: It&#8217;s &#8212; it&#8217;s dad and the situation with sally.<\/p>\n<p>Nikki: That makes two of us. I don&#8217;t understand why he wants to get mixed up with a person whose life is so chaotic. I mean, what does he see in her? Everything else in the rest of his life is great. But leave it to sally spectra to bring on the trouble.<\/p>\n<p>Summer: Especially now, with a baby on the way.<\/p>\n<p>Nikki: Baby? What baby?<\/p>\n<p>Nick: So, I basically laid down the law with summer. I told her she needs to have an open mind about our relationship.<\/p>\n<p>Sally: I hate to cause friction between you and your daughter.<\/p>\n<p>Nick: Ah, don&#8217;t worry about it. She and I are crazy close. We&#8217;re strong enough to get through it.<\/p>\n<p>Sally: Well, I don&#8217;t doubt that. Must be nice to be so strong.<\/p>\n<p>Nick: It is a heavy burden at times.<\/p>\n<p>Sally: Mm-hmm, of course it is.<\/p>\n<p>[ Both chuckle ] I could definitely use some of that strength. I really need to get my life together.<\/p>\n<p>Nick: What do you mean?<\/p>\n<p>Sally: Well, I was just waiting in limbo for so long to, you know, tell adam about the baby. And now that I have, I need to focus on other things in my life, like my career. You know, chloe and I are prepping for a follow-up meeting with jill. Of course, we&#8217;re just &#8212; you know, it&#8217;s more about jill&#8217;s schedule right now, unless victor decides to tank us again.<\/p>\n<p>Nick: Don&#8217;t you worry about that. I&#8217;m planning on using my legendary strength to make sure he stays the hell out of that.<\/p>\n<p>Sally: Well, thank you.<\/p>\n<p>Nick: It would be nice to lock in a contract with chancellor-winters, though.<\/p>\n<p>Sally: Oh, yeah. They would be a huge client. I mean, they have tons of offices and restaurants and hotels, all kinds of properties that could use interior design. And I really actually want to tour some of them so I could start to have an idea about, like, the function, the colors, the textures. That way, chloe and I have specific recommendations we can give to jill and impress her all over again.<\/p>\n<p>Nick: That&#8217;s excellent thinking. Where are all these properties? And would you like to use the newman jet to get to them?<\/p>\n<p>Sally: [ Laughs ] Yeah, I&#8217;m sure that would go over really big with victoria.<\/p>\n<p>Nick: I&#8217;m the coo. I can reserve the jet whenever the hell I want.<\/p>\n<p>Sally: Well, that is very generous of you. I really appreciate the gesture. But no thank you. We are gonna fly commercial.<\/p>\n<p>Nick: Are you sure?<\/p>\n<p>Sally: Yeah. I mean, our research has absolutely nothing to do with newman, so we&#8217;re not entitled to the newman perks, and that includes riding on a fancy corporate jet, especially from you. I mean, our&#8230; we&#8217;re not in that stage of our relationship yet.<\/p>\n<p>Nick: Fair enough.<\/p>\n<p>Adam: Uh, hope I&#8217;m not interrupting.<\/p>\n<p>Sally: Uh, adam, we were actually having a private conversation.<\/p>\n<p>Adam: Ah, okay. Well, this will just take a few minutes of your time. Um, I have not been able to stop thinking about the baby, and i have a proposition for you, one that I hope you will seriously consider.<\/p>\n<p>[Sneezing]<\/p>\n<p>Additional sponsorship<\/p>\n<p>provided by&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>Billy: [ Chuckles ] I&#8217;m gonna get out of here.<\/p>\n<p>Chelsea: Well, it was sweet of you to stop by.<\/p>\n<p>Chloe: Well, please do not leave on my account.<\/p>\n<p>Billy: No, no, it&#8217;s okay. I don&#8217;t want to overstay my welcome.<\/p>\n<p>Chelsea: You could never overstay your welcome. But since chloe&#8217;s here&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>Billy: I got errands to do. I&#8217;m gonna pop downstairs, grab a coffee, and then go do what I need to do.<\/p>\n<p>Chelsea: Oh.<\/p>\n<p>Billy: Good to see you.<\/p>\n<p>Chloe: You too.<\/p>\n<p>Billy: You&#8217;re amazing. I&#8217;ll, uh &#8212; I&#8217;ll be in touch.<\/p>\n<p>Chelsea: Okay.<\/p>\n<p>Billy: Okay.<\/p>\n<p>[ Sighs ]<\/p>\n<p>Sally: Well, what exactly are you suggesting?<\/p>\n<p>Adam: Um, look, I just want to make things as easy as I can for you.<\/p>\n<p>Sally: In what sense?<\/p>\n<p>Adam: Look [Sighs] It&#8217;s important that you and our child are settled and you&#8217;re comfortable from the very beginning, so&#8230; I would like to buy you a house.<\/p>\n<p>Sally: A house?<\/p>\n<p>Adam: Yeah. I mean, you weren&#8217;t planning on staying in this hotel forever, were you?<\/p>\n<p>Sally: Well, no. I mean, obviously, I would like more room. I just haven&#8217;t gotten around to, you know, beginning the process, calling realtors, looking at properties.<\/p>\n<p>Adam: Yeah, yeah, I mean, i understand it&#8217;s the beginning stages. Feels like you have all the time in the world, but, you know, time is gonna start flying by before you know it. I mean, doesn&#8217;t it make sense to find a house and move in and get ready before the baby arrives? I mean, you could use your design skills to put your own stamp on it.<\/p>\n<p>Sally: [ Sighs ] Adam &#8212;<\/p>\n<p>Adam: Please let me do this for you. I know your folks moved around a lot when you were a kid and they never gave you a place to call home. But you and our child &#8212; you can have a nursery to read bedtime stories. You can have a yard to play in, a wall with pictures and happy memories. You know, everything that you dreamed of as a child. I want to help make that happen.<\/p>\n<p>Nikki: Sally is pregnant? Oh, my god. I had no idea.<\/p>\n<p>Summer: Yes, sally is having a baby, but it&#8217;s not dad&#8217;S. It&#8217;s adam&#8217;S.<\/p>\n<p>Nikki: [ Gasps ] Hallelujah! No. No, no, this is still a mess.<\/p>\n<p>Summer: It&#8217;s what she does best.<\/p>\n<p>Nikki: I have seen nicholas almost every day at the office, and he hasn&#8217;t said anything. And I&#8217;ll bet victor doesn&#8217;t know. He would have said something.<\/p>\n<p>Summer: Um, here&#8217;s the thing, grandma. I know that it&#8217;s a lot to ask, but could you please not tell grandpa about this? At least, until dad or adam gets a chance to tell him.<\/p>\n<p>Nikki: That he&#8217;s having another grandchild? I-I don&#8217;t know. I mean, for me to know and not tell him&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>Summer: I know. I know. I know. It was really unfair for me to dump all of this on you, but i just &#8212; I needed to talk to somebody who would be just as horrified as I am, but the thing is, if grandpa confronts dad about this before he&#8217;s ready, it&#8217;s gonna cause this huge conflict. And nobody wants that, right?<\/p>\n<p>Nikki: Wow. As rationalizations go, that&#8217;s &#8212; that&#8217;s a bit of a stretch, summer. But&#8230;alright. For the sake of the baby. It&#8217;s not healthy to have stress during pregnancy.<\/p>\n<p>Summer: Thank you.<\/p>\n<p>Nikki: I wish that nicholas would tell victor already, but he&#8217;s probably too embarrassed and upset, doesn&#8217;t want to talk about it.<\/p>\n<p>Summer: This is the thing, grandma. He&#8217;s not wallowing in self-pity. Dad is actually still seeing sally.<\/p>\n<p>Nikki: They&#8217;re not breaking up?<\/p>\n<p>Summer: [ Exhales sharply ] I guess this thing with adam was a one-time occasion and sally doesn&#8217;t have any desire to get back together with him.<\/p>\n<p>Nikki: Oh, no, sure. Why should she? She can have nicholas.<\/p>\n<p>Summer: I actually think that I&#8217;m the most upset about all of this. And I kind of blew up at sally. I told her how selfish I thought she was being and how she&#8217;s using my dad. And then dad came over and told me how wrong I was and how this hasn&#8217;t changed his feelings for sally at all.<\/p>\n<p>Nikki: Unbelievable. He is too noble for his own good.<\/p>\n<p>Summer: I know, right? It&#8217;s like he can&#8217;t see what&#8217;s going on, and it kills me.<\/p>\n<p>Nikki: Trust me. I know exactly how you feel.<\/p>\n<p>Summer: I wish that this could all work out for dad. I really do but when I play it out in my head, there&#8217;s really only one word that could sum it up.<\/p>\n<p>Nikki: &#8220;Disaster.&#8221; I mean, how can he think that they can stay together when she is having his brother&#8217;s child? And I can only imagine what adam thinks about all of this.<\/p>\n<p>[ Sighs ] If only there were a way that nicholas could walk away now, before it gets more complicated.<\/p>\n<p>Summer: Maybe there is.<\/p>\n<p>&#8230;I&#8217;m over 45.<\/p>\n<p>Nikki: I would dearly love to get nicholas out of this, but i worry that any kind of maneuver would backfire. I mean, in the past, whenever i told him I had issues with the woman in his life, he just digs in his heels. I mean, if he feels so strongly about sally, in spite of this situation, I think it&#8217;s gonna be very hard to change his mind.<\/p>\n<p>Summer: I agree. But what if something in their relationship were to drastically change and he realized that it would be better to end it sooner rather than later?<\/p>\n<p>Nikki: Change how?<\/p>\n<p>Summer: Like if sally fell back in love with adam.<\/p>\n<p>Nikki: Okay. And then what?<\/p>\n<p>Summer: Sally was heartbroken when adam dumped her. I mean, that&#8217;s the reason why she glommed on to dad in the first place. And we all know that adam&#8217;s not over her. So, maybe deep down, she still cares for him, too.<\/p>\n<p>Nikki: I wouldn&#8217;t doubt that.<\/p>\n<p>Summer: So, if I could pull this off, it would be sort of a service to two people who belong together.<\/p>\n<p>Nikki: Oh, my god, yes. I mean, that would be ideal. But there are two obstacles that you need to consider.<\/p>\n<p>Summer: What are they?<\/p>\n<p>Nikki: Whatever lingering feelings sally may have for adam, she has decided to keep him at arm&#8217;s length. So that tells me that her walls are up pretty high.<\/p>\n<p>Summer: Walls can be climbed. You just have to have the right tools and motivation. What&#8217;s the other one?<\/p>\n<p>Nikki: No one is more charming than your father when he is infatuated with someone. So it&#8217;s unlikely that adam would be able to win her heart without a lot of help and a whole lot of luck.<\/p>\n<p>Sally: Adam, your offer is very generous, but&#8230; I&#8217;m &#8212; I&#8217;m gonna have to say no.<\/p>\n<p>Adam: Well, I&#8217;m sorry to hear that.<\/p>\n<p>Nick: This is what she was worried about, you overstepping.<\/p>\n<p>Adam: Uh, no, I was just trying to provide for my child and his or her mother. It&#8217;s what any decent person would do.<\/p>\n<p>Sally: Okay, you know what? You actually are both just thinking a little bit too big today, too grandiose, and worse yet, you&#8217;re actually thinking for me.<\/p>\n<p>Nick: No, no, no, sally, that&#8217;s not &#8212;<\/p>\n<p>Sally: No, hey, look, I don&#8217;t hold it against you &#8212; really. I know you&#8217;re both trying to be supportive, and you&#8217;re actually being very sweet in your own way, but I would like to make my own decisions about how I travel and where I live and, you know, everything else in my life. In fact, I actually insist on it, so&#8230; anyway, if you guys will excuse me, I-I really have work to do.<\/p>\n<p>Chelsea: Lemon?<\/p>\n<p>Chloe: Um, no.<\/p>\n<p>Chelsea: Sugar?<\/p>\n<p>Chloe: I&#8217;m good. Though I do appreciate you being such a gracious host when i clearly interrupted something when I showed up.<\/p>\n<p>Chelsea: What are you talking about?<\/p>\n<p>Chloe: The second I walked in, I picked up on a very strong vibe.<\/p>\n<p>Chelsea: A vibe?<\/p>\n<p>Chloe: Yeah. Between you and billy. You were all flushed. You&#8217;ve never been a very big blusher.<\/p>\n<p>Chelsea: What? No, that&#8217;s &#8212; no. Um, billy and I were excited because we were talking about the new video game idea.<\/p>\n<p>Chloe: Oh, yeah. That&#8217;s what got you all flustered.<\/p>\n<p>Chelsea: Chloe! It&#8217;s true.<\/p>\n<p>Chloe: You can be honest with me. There&#8217;s no judgment. Is there something going on with you and billy?<\/p>\n<p>Chelsea: [ Sighs ] I honestly don&#8217;t know how to define it. And I don&#8217;t know if I want to. There are these feelings that have been growing between us. Strong feelings.<\/p>\n<p>[ Sighs ] And I think it&#8217;s taken us both by surprise.<\/p>\n<p>Billy: You know what? Make it a double. Gonna live life dangerously.<\/p>\n<p>Sharon: I&#8217;ve heard that about you.<\/p>\n<p>Billy: [ Chuckles ] My secret&#8217;s out.<\/p>\n<p>Sharon: I noticed that you came from the direction of chelsea&#8217;s place. Is she well?<\/p>\n<p>Billy: She is. She&#8217;s very well, actually. She&#8217;s working on a new project.<\/p>\n<p>Sharon: Oh, really?<\/p>\n<p>Billy: Have you heard of, uh, what daniel romalotti&#8217;s putting together?<\/p>\n<p>Sharon: The gaming platform. Yeah, that sounds really intriguing.<\/p>\n<p>Billy: Yeah, it is. She, uh &#8212; she pitched him an idea, and he&#8217;s looking into developing it.<\/p>\n<p>Sharon: Oh, wow! Well, that sounds wonderful. I&#8217;m sure that&#8217;ll give her a boost.<\/p>\n<p>Billy: Yeah, definitely. Among other things.<\/p>\n<p>Sharon: Yeah? Like what? The two of you? Having diabetes can raise a lot of questions.<\/p>\n<p>Summer: Thank you for lunch.<\/p>\n<p>Nikki: Oh, you are so welcome.<\/p>\n<p>Sally: Hello.<\/p>\n<p>Nikki: Well, sally. What a coincidence. Summer was just telling me your big news.<\/p>\n<p>Summer: Oh, but don&#8217;t worry. My grandma will keep it in the circle of trust.<\/p>\n<p>Nikki: Oh, yes. For the baby&#8217;s sake. Frankly, uh, it was not news that I expected.<\/p>\n<p>Sally: Yeah, I&#8217;m sure it wasn&#8217;T. I was caught off guard myself.<\/p>\n<p>Nikki: Well, I have so many things to say, but I would have no idea where to begin.<\/p>\n<p>Sally: It&#8217;s okay. I have a feeling I know what you&#8217;re thinking.<\/p>\n<p>Nikki: Good. That saves us both some time. I have to be leaving. Summer, darling, I will see you later.<\/p>\n<p>Summer: Bye, grandma. Thank you again for meeting me.<\/p>\n<p>Nikki: Of course.<\/p>\n<p>Sally: [ Sighs heavily ]<\/p>\n<p>Summer: Are you, um, on your own?<\/p>\n<p>Sally: Uh, no. I&#8217;m meeting chloe in a little bit, but I just thought I&#8217;d get some work done.<\/p>\n<p>Summer: Well, hey, um, why don&#8217;t I stay and you join me?<\/p>\n<p>Sally: [ Sighs ] Why? So you can go on more about what a tramp and a chaotic mess I am?<\/p>\n<p>Summer: So I can apologize.<\/p>\n<p>Billy: You know, just to be clear, I&#8217;m not ignoring the advice you gave me earlier about, you know, what could be potentially developing between chelsea and me. I&#8217;m on board. Slow and steady, proceed with caution, all of that. And she&#8217;s, you know, talking to her therapist throughout this whole time, so she&#8217;s on top of it.<\/p>\n<p>Sharon: Well, I&#8217;m relieved to hear that because chelsea needs to navigate this very carefully for herself and for your sake, for connor and johnny and katie.<\/p>\n<p>Billy: I agree. We&#8217;re not an island. And if &#8212; if we take this relationship to the next level, it&#8217;s gonna affect the people we love. And most importantly, we&#8217;ve got to make sure that the kids are okay with it.<\/p>\n<p>Sharon: You know, I didn&#8217;t mean to sound negative.<\/p>\n<p>Billy: No, no, no, no. I appreciate everything you do for us &#8212; really. And I respect your professionalism. I know you only want what&#8217;s best for us.<\/p>\n<p>Sharon: I really do. And my opinion doesn&#8217;t just come from my training. I&#8217;ve been in a similar situation myself. After I had my breakdown, I clung to adam. And what we experienced, the things that he did for me &#8212; it created a very intense bond between us. That didn&#8217;t mean that we were supposed to be together. But for a while there, the emotional lines were very blurred for me and it was hard to let go of him, even though i knew that was what was best for both of us. So, the last thing that I would want to see happen is for chelsea or you to go through that kind of pain.<\/p>\n<p>Chloe: Billy saved your life. And not like &#8220;thanks for the help, you&#8217;re a life-saver&#8221; kind of way. I mean &#8212; I mean he actually saved your life. So I can understand why the two of you have developed some feelings for each other.<\/p>\n<p>Chelsea: Yeah. And he&#8217;s been there for me every single day since. An incredible source of comfort. But this isn&#8217;t just gratitude. He &#8212; he makes me hopeful. He makes me excited about the future. And I feel like I can be myself around him, knowing that whatever I say, he understands.<\/p>\n<p>Chloe: Look, I&#8217;m really glad that he can be that person for you. I am, but&#8230;you know, you and billy were together years ago.<\/p>\n<p>Chelsea: Mm. We were engaged.<\/p>\n<p>Chloe: Yeah, I know, um&#8230; but you were both coming off of tragedies. You know, you &#8212; you found each other. You found strength in each other. And things ended badly. And if I could be frank, I think it&#8217;s because you didn&#8217;t love billy with your entire heart and soul.<\/p>\n<p>Chelsea: You&#8217;re right. Back then, I thought adam was the love of my life, and i thought I had lost him forever. I wasn&#8217;t over him, not by a long shot.<\/p>\n<p>Chloe: So, as incredible as billy has been with you, I have to ask, as your friend &#8212; is it really what you think it is? (Vo) oh look! Glorious progresso soup.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The young and the restless&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>will continue. Not flossing well?<\/p>\n<p>Summer: Look, sally, the last time I saw you, I was really upset and I crossed some lines. What I said to you was cruel and wrong and just plain mean. And I&#8217;m sorry.<\/p>\n<p>Sally: Thank you.<\/p>\n<p>Summer: Now that I&#8217;ve had time to cool down, I&#8217;ve realized that I&#8217;ve got to just accept that you&#8217;re an important part of my dad&#8217;s life. And if that&#8217;s the case, then i need to find a way for you and i to get along. And, look, I&#8217;m not saying that it&#8217;s gonna be easy or that we&#8217;re gonna be besties anytime soon, but I have no interest in an ongoing battle that&#8217;s just gonna hurt all of us.<\/p>\n<p>Sally: Yeah. I mean, I would love to find a way to, you know, make things work. And since you are extending yourself, I will meet you halfway.<\/p>\n<p>Summer: I appreciate that.<\/p>\n<p>Sally: Look, I-I know that this must have been really jarring for you. And I know that you just want to protect your father.<\/p>\n<p>Summer: I can&#8217;t help but want to look out for him. And it brings me to a question that I&#8217;ve been wondering about, if you don&#8217;t mind me asking.<\/p>\n<p>Sally: Go ahead.<\/p>\n<p>Summer: How is adam taking the news?<\/p>\n<p>Sally: I think he&#8217;s excited to be a father again.<\/p>\n<p>Summer: Mm. I figured he would be. But what I meant is, um, how is he handling that you and my dad are gonna stay together? I assume he&#8217;s not thrilled.<\/p>\n<p>Sally: That&#8217;s a safe assumption.<\/p>\n<p>Summer: He probably feels like he should be the one by your side right now?<\/p>\n<p>Sally: Yeah. Yeah, I-I think that&#8217;s what he wants.<\/p>\n<p>Summer: The thing about adam is he can be relentless when he wants something.<\/p>\n<p>Sally: [ Chuckles ]<\/p>\n<p>Adam: Look, I asked you to stay because we obviously need to find a way to navigate this situation.<\/p>\n<p>Nick: Agreed.<\/p>\n<p>Adam: Mm-hmm. You know, it&#8217;s like we get on the same page, we start to understand each other, and then we will clash over something and we end up right back where we started.<\/p>\n<p>Nick: Well, it&#8217;s not always my fault, adam.<\/p>\n<p>Adam: Okay. Nor is it mine. Look, it&#8217;s frustrating for us, but it&#8217;s not good for sally. We don&#8217;t want to aggravate her in the condition that she&#8217;s in. She won&#8217;t stand for it.<\/p>\n<p>Nick: Well, I can&#8217;t argue with any of that.<\/p>\n<p>Adam: Okay. Well, the reality is I&#8217;m gonna be a part of this baby&#8217;s life &#8212; and sally&#8217;s &#8212; and you intend to be just as involved. So, you know, where does that leave us?<\/p>\n<p>Nick: We&#8217;re just brothers who don&#8217;t agree on much&#8230;except we both care for this woman. She shouldn&#8217;t have to deal with our issues. So, yeah, we need to come up with some common ground.<\/p>\n<p>Adam: And how do you propose we do that?<\/p>\n<p>Nick: I don&#8217;t know. But I know we&#8217;re both capable. So, if we both make a good-faith effort, we should be able to come up with something.<\/p>\n<p>Nikki: Thank you both for coming.<\/p>\n<p>Michael: Oh, it was no trouble at all, nikki.<\/p>\n<p>Nikki: Um, there&#8217;s tea, if you&#8217;d like a cup, or if you&#8217;d like something else?<\/p>\n<p>Lauren: Oh, no. Tea is wonderful. Thank you.<\/p>\n<p>Nikki: Help yourself.<\/p>\n<p>Lauren: Thanks, darling. Um, I&#8217;m assuming that we&#8217;re here to get our assignments for the gala.<\/p>\n<p>Michael: Ah!<\/p>\n<p>Nikki: Well, yes, as vice chair, I will be meeting privately with everyone on the planning committee.<\/p>\n<p>Michael: Oh, I&#8217;m gonna enjoy being part of this, seeing how it all comes together instead of just showing up the night of in a tux.<\/p>\n<p>Lauren: You see, my darling, how much fun you&#8217;d have if you were retired?<\/p>\n<p>Nikki: Well, I have to say, after all the charity work I&#8217;ve done over the years, this particular event really has so much meaning.<\/p>\n<p>Lauren: Mm-hmm. Well, it&#8217;s our town&#8217;s bicentennial celebration. I mean, 200 years since the founding of genoa city.<\/p>\n<p>Michael: Ah. How time flies.<\/p>\n<p>Nikki: Yes, it does. And the gala is gonna be here before we know it.<\/p>\n<p>Michael: Alright, nikki, we&#8217;re at your service. Put us to work.<\/p>\n<p>Lauren: Yep. What is it this year? Do you want marketing, pr, ticket sales, silent auction?<\/p>\n<p>Nikki: Well, I thought you might enjoy a change of pace. I was hoping the two of you could work as a team, handling the catering, signing off on the menu, the signature cocktails, directing the chef and the head of the waitstaff.<\/p>\n<p>Lauren: Oh, this sounds like fun.<\/p>\n<p>Nikki: Yeah, I think it will be.<\/p>\n<p>Michael: I will happily taste every dish, including dessert.<\/p>\n<p>Lauren: And thank goodness i have a staff of tailors who will be taking out his pants afterwards.<\/p>\n<p>Nikki: Ah, good idea. Well, we have been working on quite the guest list.<\/p>\n<p>Lauren: Oh, I don&#8217;t think i told you. It&#8217;s a masked ball.<\/p>\n<p>Michael: Oh! Elegant mask, formal attire, that kind of look?<\/p>\n<p>Nikki: Exactly.<\/p>\n<p>Lauren: Yes.<\/p>\n<p>Michael: Alright.<\/p>\n<p>Lauren: Oh, my goodness. Do you remember that costume ball we did?<\/p>\n<p>Nikki: Ah!<\/p>\n<p>Lauren: I mean, how many years ago was that?<\/p>\n<p>Nikki: Oh, it&#8217;s been a long time, but I remember it like it was yesterday.<\/p>\n<p>Lauren: And katherine was queen of hearts&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>Nikki: Oh, yes.<\/p>\n<p>Lauren: &#8230;And rex the mad hatter. And I was marie antoinette.<\/p>\n<p>Michael: Ooh la la. Sounds very lavish.<\/p>\n<p>Lauren: Like you wouldn&#8217;t believe.<\/p>\n<p>Michael: Who else was there?<\/p>\n<p>Lauren: [ Laughs ] Uh, christine was the blond bombshell.<\/p>\n<p>Nikki: Ohh, yes.<\/p>\n<p>Lauren: And jack, you know, prince charming. Hello? Hello?<\/p>\n<p>Michael: Of course. Of course he was. And victor was&#8230;?<\/p>\n<p>Lauren: Roman conqueror.<\/p>\n<p>Nikki: Absolutely.<\/p>\n<p>Michael: Very apropos.<\/p>\n<p>Lauren: Oh, ashley abbott was a stunning scheherazade, and jill made quite a spectacle, arriving as cleopatra with two half-naked, very hot men who proceeded to fan her all night with very large ostrich feathers.<\/p>\n<p>Nikki: I remember. Just know that this year&#8217;s event will be more toned down.<\/p>\n<p>Lauren: [ Laughs ]<\/p>\n<p>Michael: Aw.<\/p>\n<p>Lauren: Just a little. Just a little. Just a tad.<\/p>\n<p>Nikki: So, michael, while i have you here, I&#8217;d love to hear your take on tucker mccall. What&#8217;s happening with him and his company?<\/p>\n<p>Michael: Ahh. We were having so much fun reminiscing and party planning.<\/p>\n<p>Nikki: Yes, we were. But now I have some questions about him and his business. So, I&#8217;m looking to you for some answers. Hi, I&#8217;m jason and I&#8217;ve lost 202 pounds on golo.<\/p>\n<p>Sally: Well, all things considered, adam is handling the situation pretty well. You know, he knows we&#8217;ll be parents together and that&#8217;s it, and pushing for more would alienate me, which would make it difficult to function in our child&#8217;s best interest. And neither of us want to be those parents. So, the short answer is, yeah, adam is behaving himself.<\/p>\n<p>Summer: Good. I&#8217;m glad to hear that his priorities are in order. But still, it&#8217;s got to be hard for you.<\/p>\n<p>Sally: You know, I just have to say that your interest and concern is very different than it was the other day.<\/p>\n<p>Summer: Like I said, i just &#8212;<\/p>\n<p>Sally: Yeah, you&#8217;re protective of nick. Totally makes sense. But still, it&#8217;s just really abrupt. I can&#8217;t help wondering if there&#8217;s more to your sudden change of heart.<\/p>\n<p>Adam: Boy, I never would have thought that this would be the thing that would force us to be more harmonious.<\/p>\n<p>Nick: Well, this is where we are, adam.<\/p>\n<p>Adam: We have more in common than either one of us is willing to admit. I mean, just the fact that victor is our father, for one. There&#8217;s few people on the planet that can appreciate the complexities that go along with that.<\/p>\n<p>Nick: [ Chuckles ] Well, that&#8217;s true. The way you&#8217;ve been talking lately, it makes it seem like you see him in a more positive light.<\/p>\n<p>Adam: [ Chuckles ] Uh, it&#8217;s taken some time. But, yeah, I think I&#8217;m coming around to the idea that he knows me better than I thought. And he might actually want to do right by me. I imagine you&#8217;re up to date on newman&#8217;s plan to acquire mccall unlimited? And you know if that happens that victor is gonna keep it a separate entity and put me in charge?<\/p>\n<p>Nick: Yeah, I just didn&#8217;t know if he had talked to you about it yet.<\/p>\n<p>Adam: Well, assuming that happens and everything goes through, are you okay with that? Or is that gonna be something else that we have to overcome?<\/p>\n<p>Nikki: I want to know whatever you know about victor&#8217;s plans to get a hold of mccall. I assume you know about this. At this point, it&#8217;s not confidential.<\/p>\n<p>Lauren: Right. I&#8217;m up to speed.<\/p>\n<p>Michael: No, I have no updates for you, nikki. There&#8217;s been no movement on that front. Tucker has still not agreed to sell to newman.<\/p>\n<p>Nikki: So, it&#8217;s not imminent.<\/p>\n<p>Lauren: You don&#8217;t want this acquisition to happen?<\/p>\n<p>Nikki: Oh, no, I&#8217;m fine with the acquisition. It&#8217;s what might happen afterward that I am concerned about. Victor has this plan. He wants to put adam in charge, have him report only to victor, bypassing victoria. I mean, she wants to dismantle his company and fold it into the flagship.<\/p>\n<p>Lauren: Oh. That sounds very tense.<\/p>\n<p>Nikki: Yeah, well, things are volatile enough between adam, victoria, and nicholas on a good day.<\/p>\n<p>Lauren: Say no more.<\/p>\n<p>Nikki: Yeah. Our family has enough to deal with right now. I don&#8217;t want to add any more tension. Ugh. Victor and his plans.<\/p>\n<p>Michael: Have you spoken to victor about this?<\/p>\n<p>Nikki: I have voiced my thoughts about adam, to no avail. That&#8217;s why I would like you to help me in stopping this.<\/p>\n<p>Chloe: I hope I didn&#8217;t upset you. I just &#8212; [ Sighs ] You have made such incredible progress. I would hate to see anything derail that.<\/p>\n<p>Chelsea: You didn&#8217;t upset me, chloe. You&#8217;re being a good friend. You&#8217;re asking all the right questions. Trust me &#8212; I&#8217;ve asked myself the same ones.<\/p>\n<p>Chloe: Okay, good.<\/p>\n<p>Chelsea: [ Sighs ] Whatever&#8217;s going on between billy and me, it&#8217;s both exhilarating and terrifying &#8212; because I don&#8217;t want to mess this up.<\/p>\n<p>Chloe: That&#8217;s understandable.<\/p>\n<p>Chelsea: I mean, am I ready for more than friendship? Should I be? I don&#8217;t know. I just know that this connection I have with him feels new and different than anything I&#8217;ve felt for anybody. And, yes, different than what i felt for billy before.<\/p>\n<p>Chloe: And I&#8217;m so glad to hear it.<\/p>\n<p>Chelsea: I&#8217;m drawn to him, chloe.<\/p>\n<p>[ Sighs ] It&#8217;s a pull that&#8217;s hard to ignore..and hard not to act on.<\/p>\n<p>Billy: Thank you for opening up about your past like that. I appreciate it. And I know that was heartfelt. And it&#8217;s a good reminder to keep my wits about me, you know where chelsea is concerned.<\/p>\n<p>Sharon: Well, I&#8217;m glad that it was helpful.<\/p>\n<p>Billy: But, you know, sharon, our story isn&#8217;t yours and adam&#8217;s story. You know, we&#8217;ve been honest with each other about everything through all of this. And I&#8217;m not gonna hurt her. No one&#8217;s gonna get hurt here. Whatever chelsea and I have, it just feels right. (Vo) red lobster&#8217;s finer points of fun dining: Because I was hoping I could<\/p>\n<p>Michael: I sympathize with your concern for your family, but I do not want to be caught in the middle of this. I&#8217;ll be happy to assist victor in any acquisition-related issues, consult on the legal status, but what happens to mcall after that &#8212; that&#8217;s way above my pay grade.<\/p>\n<p>Nikki: Oh, that&#8217;s too bad because I was hoping I could count on you as an ally.<\/p>\n<p>Michael: Well, think of me as switzerland without the chocolate.<\/p>\n<p>Lauren: Do you realize the position you&#8217;re putting michael in?<\/p>\n<p>Nikki: Yes, lauren, i understand that. But that doesn&#8217;t mean I&#8217;m gonna sit back and accept defeat.<\/p>\n<p>Nick: Dad just loves to talk about the acquisition like it&#8217;s a done deal, but trust me &#8212; it is not.<\/p>\n<p>Adam: Well, victor&#8217;s never been accused of having a confidence problem.<\/p>\n<p>Nick: If we manage to snag mccall, I have no problem whatsoever with you off running it somewhere on the side. In fact, I would prefer it if you never came back to newman enterprises.<\/p>\n<p>Adam: Really? I&#8217;m stunned.<\/p>\n<p>Nick: Mm-hmm. If you remain autonomous, i believe it will keep conflict to a minimum.<\/p>\n<p>Adam: Look, once again, we&#8217;re on the same page. Uh, unfortunately, victoria is not as open to that concept as you are.<\/p>\n<p>Nick: Have you talked to her about it?<\/p>\n<p>Adam: No. I asked dad what her response was, and he said that, uh, he&#8217;ll take care of it, which tells me she&#8217;s definitely not on board.<\/p>\n<p>Nick: [ Chuckles ] You&#8217;re surprised by that?<\/p>\n<p>Adam: No. Just trying to find out how big of a fight I have on my hands.<\/p>\n<p>Nick: Have you ever known vick to back down from a fight? Sure, adam, dad&#8217;s got grand plans for you. But vick&#8217;s your ultimate roadblock.<\/p>\n<p>Summer: Sally, I&#8217;m trying to be a better person here.<\/p>\n<p>Sally: So, you just had this epiphany and decided to embrace it?<\/p>\n<p>Summer: I needed a little push. My dad and I had a long talk, and&#8230; growing up, he wasn&#8217;t ever the kind of dad that would yell, but when he was upset with me, he would give me this look and i would know that he was disappointed. And I hated that look. And he brought it out, and&#8230; it just made me see things from another perspective.<\/p>\n<p>Sally: So, you&#8217;re trying to get along with me to not disappoint your father?<\/p>\n<p>Summer: Yeah.<\/p>\n<p>Sally: I can appreciate that.<\/p>\n<p>Summer: Look, while we&#8217;re putting all of our cards on the table, I still have reservations about you and my dad.<\/p>\n<p>Sally: &#8216;Cause you think I&#8217;m not good enough for him.<\/p>\n<p>Summer: No. Because I always thought that you and adam are a better match.<\/p>\n<p>Sally: Why? Because you think so little of both of us?<\/p>\n<p>Summer: [ Chuckles ] I mean, maybe in the past i thought that, but even then, i could see how good you two were together. It was like you inspired each other to be your best selves, and, honestly, it made you both a little easier to take. You got into a lot less trouble together than you did apart. And &#8212; I don&#8217;t know &#8212; something about the relationship just seemed to work.<\/p>\n<p>Sally: And you don&#8217;t get that same vibe between me and your father?<\/p>\n<p>Summer: I&#8217;m not saying that. All I care about is that my dad is happy, and if you can be the woman that does that, fantastic. But I&#8217;m not gonna lie to you, sally. The adam factor bothers me. It just feels like you two aren&#8217;t done with each other yet. And it&#8217;s not just that you seemed good together in the past. It&#8217;s that you&#8217;re pregnant with his baby and you two were together once and all of these months? What are the odds of that? It&#8217;s like the universe is trying to say something. It&#8217;s as though you two are&#8230; meant to be.<\/p>\n<p>Next week on &#8220;the young and the restless&#8221;&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>Adam: I might actually end up being the ceo of your empire.<\/p>\n<p>Tucker: Over my dead body.<\/p>\n<p>Elena: But tell me &#8212; what&#8217;s going on with you and victoria?<\/p>\n<p>Jack: I proposed to diane.
