While I'm waiting for Newfoundland TV to begin the soap, here's a little "good thoughts" for Shelly who I think is undergoing some further tests this morning. Good luck, Shelly!!
Gah. Sharon arrives at the tack house to talk about Noah. She flashes back to their (hers and Nick's) first anniversary.
Ashley gets a call from Colleen. Brad's will is to be read soon. Victor offers to send one of his attorneys to represent Abby, but kid says she wants to go herself. Colleen calls Jack next and asks him to go to her for support. He'll leave right away, but first he lectures Billy again about manning up to the paternity.
Jill, Lily and Cane. at the hospital. Chloe's doing alright, baby doing very well. Drunk Billy leaves Jimmy's bar in a cab for GC Memorial Hospital.
Nick and Sharon set some ground rules for Noah. Enter Phyllis. Noah hugs her when he learns that Phyllis was the one behind this new more tolerant set of rules for him. Sharon steals a doodad from the tack house on her way out.
Jack, Colleen, Abby and Ashley assemble for the will reading, but right before the lawyer arrives, Ashley and Jack have a go around about Victor. Lawyer is about to read the will/
Over to Esther blubbering over Chloe in her hospital bed. Ugh. Lily's still in there too, rolling her eyes every time Cane gushes about HIS daughter.
More flashbacks to Nick and Sharon's wedding, this time it's Nick doing the remembering. Nick decides he and Phyllis will go out for dinner and a movie, Noah and Eden can babysit.
Billy arrives at the hospital, obviously drunk. Lily calls him on thinking about talking to Cane while he's in that condition, along comes Cane and the two men get into a stupid shoving match with Lily trying to play referee. Jill overhears the men yelling, argument escalates until a a security guard hauls Billy out. Cane says to his mother "That sloppy drunk is the person you had replace me as CEO of Jabot Cosmetics". Jill smacks her forehead.
3 heirs only. His mother and his 2 daughters. The girls get what's left after his mother's whatever, 50/50, and Colleen will be in charge of Abby's share in trust until she is of age. Ashley thought SHE'd be the one to hold the trust for Abby, lol. Jack reads a mushy letter Brad wrote to his daughters and then the lawyer hands over to Ashley a hand written letter to her from Brad.
Sharon knocks back drinks alone at Jimmy's bar. Billy's back there too now, asks Sharon what she's doing there. They decide to hang out together at Jimmy's for the night, drown their sorrows.
Jill goes to Victor about getting the unpredictable Billy out the CEO position at Jabot. Victor is adamant! He yells he doesn't give a DAMN about Jabot, shocks Jill, then he threatens her, says if she doesn't do what he says, and doesn't keep her mouth shut to Ashley about what he is doing to the Abbott business, she'll lose his stocks and therefore lose Jabot. (Victor is in full bastard mode. He all but admitted this time that his plan is to ruin Jabot completely and keep Ashley in the dark about his role in it. Nice.)
Ashley reads her letter from Brad and it upsets her. She reads it aloud to Jack and it's all about warning her about Victor, his role in Abby's life (and the reason he has Colleen holding Abby's trust) then warns Ashley about not falling into Victor's trap again. She's flustered, torn, embarrassed. Flounces out of the room, snippity to Jack. She has made her decision about the board seat too.
Eden and Noah play a board game at the tack house then have a little slap and tickle. Looks like those two will be having sex before long.
Nick and Phyllis make out in their car. (Not far from the tree, that Noah, lol.)
Chloe flat lines, calls for a doctor.
Sharon and Billy get drunk together. She moans that Nick forgot that today was their anniversary. Uck.
Oh, no biggie with Chloe, just a bad reaction to an antibiotic. Doc changed it, all hope for the best.
AHA!! Ashley goes over to Victor at his office, tells him that the big surprise at the will was that Brad put Colleen in charge of Abby's trust and not her because of her relationship with Victor. THEN, she goes on to say she has decided to take Brad's board seat at NE. Victor hugs her, pulls her toward him and has a smug smile on his face.
Jack encourages Colleen to attend the NE board meeting tomorrow. She received an invitation because her dad was on the board.
Awkward moment as Nick and Phyllis give up on making love in the car. Noah stops Eden from undressing him, both agree they should wait.
Sharon kisses Billy, laugh, more kissing. They agree to take one cab together. She leans over and kisses him again. Both are very drunk.
Next:
Jack reminds Billy he has to acknowledge his daughter today.
Chloe (looking all better now) holds her baby, Cane and Esther gush how she is so perfect.
Sharon, in a white negligee, snatches a bottle of champagne from Nick's hand, says what she does isn't his business any more. Looks like she is at her suite at GCAC.
Yeah, it was pretty obvious that Sharon and Billy would have drunk sex after they left Jimmy's bar together. Nasty, lol.
Sharon is taking out her series of losses by replacing them with little objects she lifts from places that represent her loss (the elephant is Brad, the paperweight is her job and NE, the little round ball thingy today her marriage to Nick). Usually kleptomania is a cry for help.
