Amber has Gil cop at her wrecked and trashed studio flat but Gil won't help her, says she has no credibility since she took 24 hours to report it.
Jana rehashes Daniel's story of the reproduction he was forced to make, finds it fishy.
Jeff and Gloria take over Phyllis's penthouse, stop by to say hello to Jana and Daniel. Gloria refuses Kevin's offer to give her some work at the coffee house because she "has a plan".
Another small clanger that MJ is Patty Williams.
Paul tells Nikki he is investigating MJ. She's evasive, he gets this strange vibe. He thinks he knows her from somewhere.
Jill storms into Victor's ranch, rants about her Cayman bank and he dismisses her. But she offers him an opportunity for something he likes better than anything, payback.
Kevin notices that Jana is distracted (she has her mind on the Daniel thing). She has a terrible feeling something awful is about to happen, it's too peaceful around there.
Amber and Daniel disagree about her calling the cops. Gil is dismissive, says he'll file their report, but that's it.

Victor is interested in the payback scheme until Jill mentions Katherine's hiring of Neil as incentive for revenge. Snarky Jill, stern Victor, tells her go away with her petty ideas, he has far more important things to worry about than her bank losses and personal vendettas, "you got that?".
Amber and Daniel argue loudly about the break-in, says she is leaving to go see Kevin. Daniel calls for Aucker, not there again, called 4 times already and if he doesn't call him back, he'll blow his case wide open.
LOL, Gloria and Jeff barge into Victor's. Jill snarks, Gloria bellows, Jeff chimes in. Victor says "Kindly get out now before I call security and don't you dare come into my house again". Pissed off Victor, lol.
MJ calls Victor, has to see him right away at her suite at the club. He agrees.
As Nikki and Paul talk about MJ, Paul becomes surer that he knows her from somewhere. Meanwhile, MJ strokes her stuffed cat, says Victor will know how to get rid of that bad Sharon and then Jack will be all hers.
Amber is with Kevin asking for support as Jana visits Daniel. *sigh* Daniel insists that Amber must not be told the truth. Jana thinks Amber could pull another one of her crazy stunts and drag all of them down with her.
Victor is pleasant to Paul and Nikki at GCAC, congratulates them, slaps Paul on the back. Then as Victor heads up to MJ's suite, a club employee stops him to ask about this month's payment on the suite. Pissed off Victor tells him to be more discreet and never speak to him like this in person again.
LOL, Jill arrives at Jeff and Gloria's, reveals the ruckus they caused at Victor's was staged to keep him off track of their collusion to get their money back. Jeff gets a call from one of his spies at GCAC who apparently saw Victor going into MJ's rooms. Jeff gleefully says "Ladies, we have our skeleton". (They are funny together.)
Paul and Nikki leave to go see someone that just called Paul. "It's a surprise", says Paul who was happy and excited he heard from the person.
Nope, Jeff reveals that his spy told him that Victor has been paying cash for a suite. Jill will find out who's in that suite. Funny bit.
Victor basically fires MJ who is really pissed off. He gives her a wad of cash to compensate for her trouble. MJ wants him to get rid of that "blonde bitch" but Victor says she is family and will not do anything to hurt her. The plan is over. He wants her to leave town but she refuses give up until she gets her revenge and breaks Jack into a million pieces. She sobs, hugs him, can't do this without him, don't leave her. Jill sees and hears the display, lol!!!
Corbin Benson is the surprise visitor, the actor who plays Paul's older brother, the priest. Hugs all around. He's in GC on business, but leaving tonight. Congrats on their engagment, mention of Mary.
More of Daniel with Jana and Amber with Kevin, separately, each switcheroo couple going over their mutual interests. Gah. The real Aucker arrives at Daniel's door. It's not the same man Daniel had known as the agent.
MJ enters CL, sees Paul, Nikki and the brother, has melt-down fit, slips out quickly. (Could there be any doubt by now who she really is?)
Jeff relishes in Jill's account of Victor and his "mistress". Toast with bubbly to Victor's downfall as Victor is on the phone with Ashley, loves her too, his darling.
Next:
At Jimmy's bar, Mac to Billy, that he doesn't want to do this. He presents her with a bouquet of flowers.
Kevin shakes his head in a resigned disgust as Amber, sitting beside him with her phone on speaker, is on a talk radio show with Tommy Lasorda.
Devon with Roxanne, Lily and Cane across the table and Nina at the end of it, says "she pulled some pretty crazy stunts to get Cane to Genoa City". Nina says she can't wait to hear more. Cane looks uncomfortable.
Yeah, it's as if the writers think we pack away our brains when the thermostat rises.
Between the heavy duty foreshadowing of Amber, Jana, Kevin, Daniel, we have the Mary Jane is Patty Williams AND that Ashley will lose her baby, there's this really out from left field business with the stolen art. Ugh.
I don't completely hate the Kevin/Amber stuff even though I should. And I still pray for Jack and Phyllis to reunite...But after the crappy story with Brad and art I think I could do without watching it again.
