Lily: "You have to know, I am telling you this with all my heart, I love you. I do. And you are a prince. You're my prince."
Cane: "Will you marry me?"
Cane2: "Do you know what the problem is? Neil wants her to move back home and raise the baby in the house. And look, I don't wanna insult the man, but it's not his child."
Gloria: "Listen to me, it was wrong of me to fight Jack to stay in the Abbott Mansion. It is wrong of you to get revenge in court. It'll come back to haunt you."
Kevin: "Look, I know that life on planet Gloria moves at the speed of fright, but I seem to recall your developing feelings for the guy." Lauren: "Honey? If your mother had moved in with us, I would have hurt you!"
Sharon: "It's official, the upstairs is de-Glorified!"

Jeffery/Gloria/Alistair
AC

A surprised Gloria exclaims "Why Jeffery Bardwell?"
Jeff should have known. Gloria say she wasn't supposed to just. Jeff bluntly says of course, he was. He was supposed to catch her in a liplock with this withered prune. LOL. An offended Alistair retorts a withered prune? "Listen, you cad, whose arms is she in now? Yours or mine? "
Gloria points out him to face it that Alistair says he is everything he is not. Jeff laughs right, dumb and dumber. Gloria asks if he thinks she planned this? Jeff states, of course she did,

What were you hoping for? That I'd punch him in the nose, throw him out on his pickled puss, and then ravage you?

ROFTL!! Good one, Jeffery!

Alistair wants him to listen that he may be one drink across that happy fence. Jeff tells him to shut up! Gloria tells Alistair to be quiet. "You go ahead and think what you like, but he can give me something you never could." Alistair says his darling. Jeff snarls "My ass! Get it while you can,Gloria." as he tears out of the room. LOL
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Jeff asks the bartender, anything that he can recommend that will wipe out the thoughts of an infuriating woman LOL
Jeff flashes back to Gloria kissing him at Abbott Manor, as he takes a drink.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Back in the room, Gloria announces she is going to take a bath. Alistair suggests they could take one together as she chuckles. Alistair's hints it's ecological and saves water. Gloria says no thanks. He adds that he is excellent masseur. Nothing like taking a hot bath after a relaxing massage. Gloria doesn't think so. Alistair knows it's that cad Bardwell. He always upsets her. She would do very well if she never laid eyes on him again. No, no, he always makes her so sad. Let him make her happy again. Gloria doesn't thinks so. The mood's kind of broken, thanks to you-know-who. Alistair points out a chilled bottle of champagne? Gloria tells him that the mood is gone. Alistair says oh, his darling... Gloria insists no, it's dead, listen to her. He tells her that true love never dies. He asks may he call her in the morning? She laughs, she will call him, but he have a wonderful evening and thanks again. But that mischievous Alistair, kisses the key card outside as he leaves.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Gloria is having the same kissing flashback as Jeffery. She tells herself that she is crazy. And she is done with men! As she enters the bathroom, Alistair with flowers sneaks inside. He then starts writing a note.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Later Jeffery enters the room, and read Alistair's note, ""Dear Gloria, I'm bewitched, bothered and bewildered." He goes oh, please LOL
He sees Gloria in bed and says her name. She says nothing. He says fine, he'll talk, she listen. He is losing his mind without her. They play these games, which he knows they both love them, but the now the game has become the thing and they've lost sight of what's real. They're real. Kyon means nothing to him and that, "bewitched, bothered boozer" means nothing to her. He loves her. And he believe she love him. So why don't they both just admit it.
Then all hell breaks loose, Gloria(with towel wrapped over head) screams "Aah" seeing Jeff. Then he screams "Aah", the covers flip up and it's Alistair, screaming "Aah". ROFTL! Too funny Great comic timing from all the actors in this scene here.
~~~~
Gloria asks WTH? Jeff bluntly says it's pretty damn obvious. Gloria says Alistair!! Jeff asks still playing gotcha, dear?? Gloria states no!! Jeff accuses her of hearing him from the bathroom and let him go on and on over this old coot. Gloria yells a old coot she threw out hours ago! Jeff says give him a break. He planned this whole thing so he look like a chump! Alistair adds and if the chump change fits, old boy. Gloria shouts "you get out!" Jeff yells his pleasure and heads out the door. Gloria exclaims not him, she meant.... A casual Alistair was waiting for her and fell asleep. She states ha, he passed out! A ticked Gloria asks how did he get into her room? Alistair confess that he may have borrowed her key. An outraged Gloria asks how dare he? Alistair retorts no, the thought of her being alone, crying herself to sleep over that scoundrel... Gloria shouts for him to get out. It was hilarious as she pulled him out of bed and threw him toward the door, as he tried to explain. He asks about his clothes as he runs into some hotel guests LOL.
He quickly recovers by saying "Friends, Romans, and countrymen. Just rehearsing." LOL.
Very funny scenes today. BTW, Gloria's green mask made me think of the Wicked Witch from Wizard of Oz. LOL
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
As the comedy dies down, Gloria reads the note "Bewitched, bothered, and bewildered" She scoffs that makes two of them. She sighs, oh Jeffery, as she tosses the note on the floor. Outside the door, Jeffery is about to knock but doesn't.
Very funny scenes, but we are still left with Jeffery and Gloria longing for each other. And that Alistair is nothing but trouble!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Nick/Nikki/Felicia/TGVN/Sabrina/Adam

Scene 1
Jabot
Nick instructs Nikki, how to use the website. Nikki thinks it's fantastic and so proud of him. Nick thanks her and notes that makes on parented. Nikki would suggest he ignore his father. Nick remarks it's going to be kind of difficult now that he is renting the first floor of his building for his art collection. A surprised Nikki asks what? Since when? Nick says since Sabrina. Nikki retorts unbelievable. He is the owner, just don't rent to him. Nick informs that he was his best option. His alternatives weren't great. A ticked Nikki says he is unbelievable. Nick adds there is also an added wrinkle. He now owns the mortgage to his building. Nikki asks how could that be? Nick informs that he acquired it from the bank. Nikki asks why isn't she not surprised? Nick states that he is just waiting for him to fail so TGVN can swoop in and foreclose, but it ain't going to happen. Felicia asks what won't happen? Nikki notes she is back.
Felicia hopes she isn't too late. Nikki replies not at all. They all glad to see each other again. Nikki tells Nick that his deal about sharing Lily was such a hit, Felicia wants to extend the deal. Nick says nice. Felicia points out that negotiations are always best in person. She was going to stop by her office in the morning. Nick states here is he? Felicia notes happily says lucky her. She looks someone that is about to pounce her on prey.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Nick remarks that Lily is a natural. Felicia says it's her genes. Her mom was amazing. Nikki states that Jabot chose her well as Nick laughs. Felicia says this one right here is her favorite. It's bold, beautiful(Title of her show LOL), edgy. It makes you want to look like her. Nick asks really? He isn't feeling it. Felicia giggles. Nikki says on behalf of all women out there, he does. She has a great eye. Felicia says, so does he. Nick agrees. But why bother asking the guy who actually owns the magazine? It's, a great choice, Felicia. She thanks him. So she was brainstorming on the plane about a possible fold-out spread, like the new faces cover of "Vanity Fair." Maybe they could discuss it over dinner tonight? Nikki says she has plans with his fiancé. She could cancel. Felicia says absolutely not. No, no, no. Fiancés are important. They will talk about it more in the morning, okay? Nikki says 9am right here. Felicia says it sounds great. Have fun tonight. Felicia suggests Nick and Phyllis? Nick informs that Phyllis is actually in NY, but he is free. Felicia smiles excellent. She hates eating alone. Nikki asks where is she staying? Felicia replies the Athletic Club. Nikki says she is headed her way.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Scene 2
AC

Victor asks Sabrina if she enjoyed the dinner? She replies it was great. He notes that she is hesitating. Sabrina can't stop thinking about Victoria, and how angry she is at her. Victor points that she's very fond of her, and he don't think that bond will be broken. You are wrong, Victor! A doubtful Sabrina doesn't know. In her mind, she betrayed her. That's it. Victor says to be honest with him, he feels badly about it as well, but, at the same time, he doesn't regret a moment that they spent together. Do she? Sabrina says, of course not. She doesn't regret any of it. That's what I thought. Sabrina doesn't want her to forget what she have given him. And he isn't just talking about the painting that they purchased together. Sabrina points out that everything has been so costly. Victor states it's worth every dollar. And especially when he saw the excitement in her eyes when she was doing the bidding for the painting. He guesses that art inspires her the way music inspires him. He is thinking of Bellini, for example. Does she know Bellini? Sabrina knows that he looks so romantic and sexy when he talks about music. Yes, yes, yes, bellini is a genius. Do he know the oboe concerto? Victor replies yes, e flat major. It's beautiful. Sabrina agrees. And all the operas, "Norma" is my favorite, by far. Victor asks does he have a city and a museum in the world that inspires her as much as la scala milan does him? Sabrina says the Guggenheim. Bilbao.
Victor has heard of that, but he has never been.
Sabrina asks really? Victor replies no. Sabrina states that he has to go. It's a must-see. Victor says let's Sabrina replies, someday. Victor announces that they go this weekend. Sabrina looks pretty happy to be hearing that.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Victor will be home in about an hour or so. she is sure that she doesn't want to stay and work out?
Sabrina is sure. She wants to make reservations for their weekend getaway. Victor will have his travel agent do that. Sabrina says no, she feels like it. The owner's an old friend of hers. Then they run into Felicia, Nikki and Felicia. Nikki doesn't look to happy, more jealous. Victor asks Felicia, how is she? Felicia tells TGVN that she is good. Nice to see him. Victor introduces her to his friend, Sabrina. Nick says if they excuse him, Felicia and he has dinner plans. Victor says nice to see her. Sabrina was just leaving, so They speak some French, then she leaves.
An outraged Nikki asks "See you at home? See you at home?" Victor asks what is that to him? Nikki states as his ex-wife, it's absolutely nothing, but as the mother of his children, she is aghast.
Victor asks really? Nikki can't believe that he would get involved with Victoria's friend. Victor points out that she is a grown woman, all right?
Nikki says she is very fragile. Victor says in time, she will get used to his relationship. Nikki retorts like Nick had to get used to him buying the mortgage on his new company? Victor says since she brought that up, let him explain that to her. He borrowed money against his trust fund in order to finance that ridiculous business venture that he's involved with Jack. That is bound to fail. Now the bank president knows how absolutely ridiculous and tenuous the magazine business is. )Always, he keeps putting down Nick's business.) Anyways he called him, as a favor to him. Nikki sarcastically says that's so nice.
Victor points that have grandchildren to think about. He could lose millions in the process. Do she understand that? A ticked Nikki asks, "So in other words, you stepped in to save the day? A safety net? Victor does his classic, "You got it."
Nikki retorts that no, he didn't. He had an ulterior motive. He always do. Victor states bluntly that what she thinks is totally irrelevant to me. He doesn't give a damn what she thinks. Nikki then tells him

Well, here's just one more thing that I think. You are upsetting the children very much. You are hurting them by what you're doing. I just thought you would care.

Victor tell her that she wanted a new life, she live it. Nikki is! Victor adds in the process, say hello to that pipsqueak of a boyfriend of hers. LOL, funny. Nikki tried but as usual, she couldn't get through to that stubborn TGVN that he is hurting his children!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Victor sees Adam and asks if he just now leaving the office? Adam laughs and says just a last minute pit stop with his favorite dinner companion. Victor says let him give him a little warning, son. It wouldn't hurt to take some time off every so often. Adam is planning a British relaunch of Beauty Of Nature. Victor says good. Adam informs that there's a lot involved. They haven't added a distributor since Margaret Thatcher was in office. Victor says, "I'll be dammed." That's a long time. Still, it wouldn't hurt to take some time off every so often. He is really hinting strongly, don't be such a workaholic LOL.
Adam doesn't stop in the middle. He asks that he didn't get where he was by quitting early, did he? Victor agrees that he didn't. Anyway, good to see him and will see him later on. Adam tells him good night. And one more thing? Something came up after he left the office. Victor asks anything serious? Adam replies media relations needs to reissue the press release for Granville Global's acquisition of cross media. The original said it was a stock swap, but it's actually a cash deal. Technically, that's Victoria's arena.. But she wasn't around, and since he couldn't reach you, made the correction and signed off on it. Oh brother, why didn't he call Victoria? Because as usual, he wants to undermine her!
Victor asks if he left a copy of it on his desk?
Adam did in PDF form. And it doesn't go out till 9 am. Victor says good. Great work, talk to him later on. After he leaves, we see Adam eyeing Nick and Felicia together.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Felicia says obviously, she must be highly motivated to keep flying to Wisconsin, right? Because L.A. has the sun and the beaches and the movie stars and... Nick adds the smog and the traffic and how about rush hour on the 405? That's a real gem. Felicia says that's true. But it also has her. And Forrester. He really should come visit again soon. She means, now that they're working together. Nick really like her ideas, particularly the blog. Felicia laughs, well, if they want to hit a younger demographic, and they do, it's all about interactivity. Adam interrupts, did she say online? He thought that was Phyllis' baby. Nick introduces the two to each other. Felicia says nice to meet him. Adam says his pleasure. They were both at the launch party, but he didn't get a chance to come over and introduce myself. His loss, he is sure. Felicia asks if he is in the business? Nick reports that Adam's at NE. He runs Beauty of Nature. Felicia says, great skin care line. Adam states it can be better. Nick informs her that Adam's his half-brother. Felicia says oh yeah, who knew? So he works for his Dad? Adam is finding out that TGVN and he have a lot in common. Nick asks what did he want? Adam wants to know that he e-mailed the format changes for their banner ads. An annoyed Nick says okay. That, could've waited till tomorrow, but he appreciates it. He'll call him in the morning. Adam says actually, he won't be here. He is headed to NY. Felicia asks to meet with Phyllis? Adam say no. Why? Felicia just figured it was a business thing. Adam says if he does happen to happen to run into her, he'll be sure to mention that he spotted them and, will give her their regards. He'll let them get back to their dinner. It was nice meeting her. Felicia says it was nice to meet him too. Afterwards she bluntly states that he does not like him. Nick doesn't give him much thought one way or the other. Felicia asks why does he call his father "Victor?" Nick says he just recently found out that his dad was his father. It's a long story. Felicia notes so the puzzle pieces start falling into place. Nick asks what puzzle? Felicia says the tension between him and his dad. The love he isn't showing for baby bro. Nick told her, he barely know him. Felicia nailed it "And what you do know, you don't like." Bingo!!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Nick explains so that's when he left Newman and went out and looked for something new. Felicia adds and "Restless Style" was born. Listen, she has to tell him, she understand what it's like to have a father who casts a huge shadow. Sometimes you have to walk away to find your own light. That's what happened to her. Nick asks she left Forrester? Felicia says for a long time. Nick didn't know that. Felicia had her own,, opinions about things. Some very strong ideas, and her Dad didn't, accept it. He didn't understand it, which is really funny, because she think she got those qualities from him. Nick says the difference is, he went back, and that is something he will not do. His old man can have his kingdom. He intends to build his own. Felicia asks and Victoria?
Nick says she still works for Newman. Because Newman still works for her. Felicia knows what that's like too.Her brothers and sister always got along with his father better than she did. What's that saying? That which doesn't kill you...Nick adds that makes you stronger. Felicia asks feeling stronger? Nick says, oh yeah. How about her? Felicia says absolutely. So how about that? They're, like, soul mates. Oh brother(rolling eyes LOL)
Nick laughs says he guess it takes a rebel to, know a rebel. Nick needs to go, he told the sitter he'd be home by now. Felicia understands. Believe her, she does. It's important to go home to his kid. This was really fun. Nick says it really was and he'll see her around. Afterwards Adam join her and notes that Nick took off. Felicia says he's a single Dad tonight. Adam comments that's a pity. Unless, of course, she prefers to dine alone. Felicia says not really, no. Adam says in that case, would she care for some company? Felicia is still on L.A. Time, so she is wide awake. Sure, please, join her.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Felicia say so Victor moved the chess pieces on the board. His son and daughter are out and he is. Good description of what happened.
Adam replies there's a certain symmetry. Felicia asks Beauty of Nature? Adam adds not nurture. He wasn't brought up a Newman. Felicia says so Nick told her. Adam asks he did? Adam states interesting. Anyway, Beauty of Nature's his now. Victoria's skills are being utilized elsewhere Which am I sure that he is very happy about. Felicia notes cryptically how skilful of him. And no competition from his brother. Adam points he's the one who bailed. Felicia retorts that she'd hardly call having the nerve to go out on his own bailing. Actually, she admire it. Adam asks it was or him? Felicia says both. Adam noticed that they seem to get along famously. Felicia asks based on? Adam bluntly says body language. She reached over and touched his hand half a dozen or so times during dinner. Even, he can see what a big flirt, that she is!
Felicia likes Nick. He's smart, funny and easy to work with. And he truly gets where she is going with their new line. Adam is sure he gets everything about her. Felicia states they haven't gotten to everything. Adam chuckles it's funny. He has a similar... relationship; business relationship with his wife. Felicia notes interesting. Adam says very.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Felicia say so if he does run into Phyllis in NY what does he plan to tell her about tonight? Adam says not likely. NY's a pretty big city. Felicia, not amused, says cute. Adam supposes, though, that he would mention that he saw the them enjoying each other's company. Felicia cryptically says how accurate, stay in touch as she gives him his card. Adam says good idea. Maybe they could bounce, ideas of one another sometime Felicia asks about his "Restless Style" campaign? Adam adds other topic they may have in common. Both of them had conniving looks on their face and they plot to break up Phyllis/Nick.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Scene 3
Tact House

Nick calls Phyllis. Pink and warm from a bath? Really? How warm? He laughs. What is he wearing? Just his boxers. There's muscles everywhere. LOL. She is out like a light. They really miss him. Guess who he had dinner with tonight? His favorite valley girl. Felicia. Nick was funny in his little chat with Phyllis.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
JT/Victoria/Sabrina/TGVN
CL

Victoria says disillusioned. Yeah, that's the word. Not about her father. She sort of expected this from him. It's about Sabrina, though. JT asks she call again? Victoria informs that she called a couple times. And she texted, too. JT asks did she call her back? Victoria sighs and doesn't have anything to say to her. Besides, she is going to see her at the office, now that she practically works there. Maybe she'll bring her new boyfriend by and they can all go to lunch. That'd be fun. LOL, love her sarcastic tone there!
JT think she should take tomorrow off and cool down. Victoria is fine. She isn't going to let them bother her. You know what? Tonight, let's just have fun, okay? The baby's with the nanny, so let's have a good time, which means not talking about them anymore. JT suggests a movie? Victoria agrees with that. How about that Al Pacino movie he was talking about? A sweet JT claims he was actually craving a chick flick. LOL as Victoria says he is such a liar. JT is serious. "An American quilt in the, secret life of Diane Keaton"? It just opened up. Victoria states no chick flicks. No emotions. She wants to see things blow up. LOL as JT said that's his girl, guy flick it is, then his PDA beeps. JT tells her it's the office. They need him. He is going to kill whoever invented PDAS. Victoria says Pay-per-view when he get home then. JT says it's a date Victoria says it's will be fun. She'll get out the microwave popcorn and forget Dad and Sabrina. They can do whatever they want.
Good attitude, Victoria!!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Scene 2
Newman Ranch House

Sabrina asks JT, if he is here for TGVN.. JT is up to speed, the guard filled him in. Really? LOL
Sabrina knows that he is here about Victoria. JT says yeah. Sabrina says he is worried, so she is. JT notes that's a little surprising, after what she has done. Sabrina understands. She has been calling Victoria all evening, but she's not picking up. JT states that's because she doesn't want to talk to her. Sabrina tells JT that he doesn't know her well enough, but she wouldn't--
JT knows enough not to like what he sees. Victoria's had a rough few months. No, Victoria's had an impossible few months. She almost died and so did their baby. And she knows that. And she comes for a visit and her life got a little bit brighter, got a little bit happier. She did that. But then she goes and hooks up with her father? "What were you thinking? What are you thinking?" Good question??
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Sabrina tells JT that she really doesn't want to fight. JT doesn't either. But he wants you to understand how much she hurt Victoria. Sabrina says believe her, she understand. A skeptical JT retorts after the fact, it's very convenient. Do what she wants, then you say how sorry she feels, and don't have to take responsibility for it. Sabrina retorts that's not true. You know, you can't control your heart, your emotions, who you fall in love with. JT nailed that but you can control whether or not you act on what it is telling you. Sabrina says maybe she shouldn't have given into TGVN. JT asks bluntly "maybe?, she shouldn't have? Sabrina says if she recall correctly, Victoria was married when they got together. JT is right, don't equate these two situations. Amen! It like comparing apple to oranges. She is sort of using their behavior to justifies her! Wrong!!
Sabrina asks why? Because he can't be as self-righteous if she does? What he felt for Vicki was real, right? Well, what she feel for Victor is real, too. JT sarcastically bets. Millions and millions real. Sabrina whines that's not fair. And she knows it. JT says no, but it's accurate. And somehow, he doesn't think she'd be with Victor if he answered the phone, "Do you want fries with that?" ROFTL. He's right, though.
A shocked Sabrina says that's horrible. He is very judgmental person. She is stunned. I laughed as JT told her keep telling herself that. A ticked Sabrina says he is just sticking to the story that Victoria told him. He doesn't even want to listen to her. Why should he? He can see for himself that her actions have spoken louder than her words! JT retorts no, he is basing this completely on facts.

Fact, you're sleeping with her father. Fact, you've known him for, what, five minutes? Fact, you're willing to throw away your friendship with Victoria, who you've know for how long?

Thank you, JT!! If Sabrina was truly Victoria's friend, she never would slept with her father!!

Sabrina isn't choosing TGVN over Victoria. Then JT nails that she is. Actually I think his money is the real winner LOL. And stop telling herself this good and noble person. Stop pretending that she is sorry. Stop calling Victoria to beg for forgiveness. She is exactly where she wants to be. She is with Victor. Now leave his wife alone. Sabrina looks pained. That's because the truth cut to the very core of her, and she knew it, IMHO.
JT is my hero in this scene! He rocked as he put Sabrina in her place and told her stay away from his wife. I was also glad to see Thad getting some meaty material to work with in this scene. He really gave an excellent performance today.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Scene 3
Hellstrom Cottage

JT asks how's the little one? Victoria says he is good. He's sleeping like a little angel with his thumb in his mouth. JT says oh, good. Victoria ask what took him so long? Are there more security problems at work? JT replies no. He made a stop on the way home to see Sabrina. Victoria asks why? JT says because there's some stuff that needed to be said. Victoria asks what was it? JT said that told her that he didn't like what she was doing and she's not her friend and she needs to back off. Amen! Victoria doesn't look to happy.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~`
JT asks why is she so upset that he went to see Sabrina? Victoria knows that his intentions were good. JT asks but? Victoria says it's not her, she is worried about here. JT asks what does that mean? Victoria asks what if Sabrina talks to her father? JT asks so what if she does? What's the worst that can happen? He fires him? Victoria says he wouldn't put it past him. JT says look, if he fires him, he does. It's no big deal, all right? He'll get another job.

Victoria, you are hurting and Sabrina's the reason why. So if I can make things better, I'm going to make things better.

Ah, JT is just the best, as he explained his reasons. It was sweet moment as she hugged her wonderful husband and told him that she loved him.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Victoria hates that she let TGVN and Sabrina get to her. JT says that she is entitled. Victoria realizes it's just pointless. The anger just kind of feeds on itself. JT says whatever she needs, just say the word, all right? You know, he isn't too bad at this husband thing. Victoria says no, he isn't too bad. He is great. JT says let him try this one on her

In the end, the only thing that matters is you, me and Reed.

Amen! ICAM!!

Victoria says he is right. And she love him so much as they kiss. I love these two together and glad they got some quality time today.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Scene 4
Newman Ranch House

Victor tells a down Sabrina that she looks so beautiful sitting there. She is upset. What's the matter? What happened? Sabrina admits the same thoughts. Victor asks about them? Sabrina says yes. Victor thought that would make her happy. Sabrina says they did. They do. If they were the only two people in the universe. But they're not. She doesn't think she can stay here anymore.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Sabrina tells him being together is just affecting so many people. Victor asks where did all this come from? Did she talk to Victoria? Sabrina says no, she didn't. Anyway, she doesn't think she ever wants to talk to her again. And she know he is optimistic. Victor tells her that she is being silly right now. Sabrina retorts no, his saying that she's going to get over it doesn't mean it's true. Victor says it's is. Of course, she will get over it. She's a grown woman. Sabrina hurt her. She specifically hurt her. Victor hurt her more, IMHO. She says she has to accept it. Victor thinks she is overreacting. he really does. A guilty Sabrina doesn't know. It's just that she feels she is losing so much. She sacrificed her friendship with Victoria to be with her. And has no guarantees. They can be over tomorrow or next week. Victor asks is that how she really feel? Sabrina says it's not. She has dreams and hopes, but doesn't have illusions. And being realistic, he can have pretty much any woman he wants, many women. He could be done with her and move on to the next. A friend like Victoria? That's so special. That's forever. She means, used to be forever. She doesn't know. She is sorry, she doesn't like herself right now. This is not the person she wants to be. She sounded sincere here, is she??
Victor tells her to look at him. How beautiful she is. He understands his confusion and why she is so upset.

Let me tell you something, I used to come home here to an empty house by myself. You came into my life and I'm happy again. I was estranged from my family. You made me happy again. I once told you that I came from nothing. And now, I seemingly have everything.

For me, there is a lot of parallels here between Victor and John. John was very lonely in his life when he met Gloria. So was Victor. Both failed to see that the ladies, were gold diggers(IMHO)
And both men defended the ladies to their families.
Victor wants her to stay, please. They speak some French. I assuming she said yes, because they started kissing. And once again Sabrina choose Victor again. But Victoria shouldn't worry about them and just move on with her life.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Nikki/David/Victoria(phone)

Nikki rants that man is impossible. He says he's just looking after Nick. David asks by going behind his back? Nikki sarcastically says Victor knows best. Didn't he know that? David remarks it's incredible what that man'll do to his family. He doesn't know how she stayed married to him. Nikki sighs says, really, you have to understand him. When he's allowed to be in charge, he's pretty charming. Nothing goes wrong. Everything is perfect. It was when she wouldn't let him be in charge anymore that they started having problems.True! And boy, that feels wonderful(his massage). David realizes it must be difficult for her, even now. To see TGVN with another woman. Nikki says she isn't in love with him anymore. She hasn't been for awhile. I think she will always love him, but she has moved on. I just wish not with David.
David says it's only human. Nikki asks what, that's he's with someone else? No, what she thinks is awful is what he's doing to the kids, and she doesn't know how to make him understand that. She sighs and has to call Victoria. David tells her to do that, and he'll order room service, all right? They can eat and relax. What does he think? Nikki thinks he is fabulous. She calls Victoria and says she is just checking in.
Victoria is much better now. Nikki asks already?
Victoria is right why get worked up about it? There's nothing she can really do. Nikki says that's true. She has another call? Victoria sees it from Sabrina and ignores it. She tells her it's nobody important.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
As he massages her, David ask if she is feeling any better. Nikki says much. David is glad that they stayed in. Nikki says sometimes it's nice to just escape from the world. David replies that's all right. As long as it's not escaping from him. I wish LOL. Nikki says that's goes without saying. Oh, that's heavenly. David tells her "You are in my power." Oh, we have knows that since he starting working for her!
He says that she will forget all the stresses of her life. Nikki asks what stresses? Oh, that is divine.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Later in bed, Nikki hears his PDA buzz. David says it's so strange. He bought a new tube of toothpaste and can't seem to find it anywhere. What's wrong? Nikki guesses she grabbed his by mistake. David reads, "Poker not for beginners," It's my old bookie, He told him he is retired and can't seem to take a hint. He guesses he is going to have to change his number. Nikki looks a bit skeptical as he finds his toothpaste. I wish that Nikki would hire Paul now, to find out the truth about David.
But this Y&R episode is over, folks!

~~~~Lines of the Day~~~~~~~
JT: "And somehow, I don't think you'd be with Victor if he answered the phone, "Do you want fries with that?"
JT2 "I am basing this completely on facts. Fact, you're sleeping with her father. Fact, you've known him for, what, five minutes? Fact, you're willing to throw away your friendship with Victoria, who you've know for how long?
JT3: " And stop telling yourself you're this good and noble person. Stop pretending that you're sorry. Stop calling Victoria to beg for forgiveness. You are exactly where you want to be. You're with Victor. Now leave my wife alone"
Jeffery: "What were you hoping for? That I'd punch him in the nose, throw him out on his pickled puss, and then ravage you"
