Estella's Arraigned

Victor calls Victoria and asks her to come over. Ashley comes into the room and Victor advises her not to go to the courthouse today where Estella's arraignment is being held because it might upset her. Victor remarks that he doesn't think the case is airtight against her. Adam walks through the front door and when asked where he was, he tells his father he needed some fresh air. He admits he didn't sleep much last night and Victor assures him he isn't alone - he's going to keep looking for a way for Adam to get his sight back. Adam goes upstairs. Victor remembers when he found out Hope was pregnant and how she was afraid she could pass on her condition to her baby. Victor says he feels like he failed both Hope and Adam and he doesn't blame Adam for being angry.

At the coffeehouse, Nikki tells J.T. she thinks Estella was framed by Adam. J.T. wonders if there is any evidence to back this up and Nikki admits there isn't anything solid yet. Victoria comes over and they continue to debate on whether or not Adam could be scaring Ashley. Victoria tells them they might as well all go spit on Sabrina's grave! She leaves to get more coffee and J.T. explains to Nikki that Victoria has been upset about Sabrina lately.

At the coffeehouse, Noah sees Rafe and asks him how he can become an emancipated minor! Rafe tells him he has to be able to support himself and he also has to have a place to live. Rafe tells Noah to come by his office later because he's due in court for Estella's arraignment. Noah receives a call from Nick, requesting Noah meet him and Sharon at the Club. Nick tells Noah they have important news to tell him. Noah agrees to meet them at the Club.

Sharon and Nick sit in the dining room at the Club and Nick talks about how their lives are coming together - they've found a house and soon they will have the paternity results. Noah arrives and they tell him they've found a house to buy - they can all live together as a family again. Noah says the house sounds nice, but he isn't going to move in - he doesn't want to live with them! Noah says he doesn't want Summer to go through what he went through with visitations. Noah tells them that they'll probably screw up the baby as well! He goes on to say he's going to file for emancipation. Sharon points out that they haven't abused or neglected them and thinks Noah's over-reacting. She says family therapy would be a better choice. Nick wants to know if Noah has filed yet and Noah admits he hasn't, but he's talked to a lawyer. Nick accuses Noah of wanting to file for emancipation in order to live with Eden. Noah tells them it isn't about Eden - they just don't understand. Nick says Noah shouldn't be in such a rush to grow up, but Noah says he isn't going to continue talking with them if they are only going to make fun of him.

In her room at the Club, Mary Jane talks to her kitty about how she is going to live happily with Jack, but sometimes men just need a little nudging! Jack comes in and wants to know what the important business is? Mary Jane strips and asks what's more important than keeping the CEO of the company happy? They kiss and head for the bed to make love. After making love, Mary Jane imagines she tells Jack she's falling for him and he reciprocates the sentiment. In reality, Jack's phone ring and Mary Jane asks if it's Phyllis? Jack is confused by her question. Mary Jane tries to make love to him again, but Jack stops her. He reiterates that their relationship is only about sex and he doesn't want to see her get hurt. Mary Jane says she has no intention of getting hurt. She tells Jack she'll see him later and shows him out. She tells kitty that it's happening, but she needs to take it slow.

Heather comes to Adam's room and wonders if everything is okay - he sounded very upset on the phone. Adam apologizes for how he acted yesterday. He tells Heather that thanks to Victor leaving him in prison - where he was stuck in the eyes with needles - he is no longer a candidate for a trial for his eye disease. Adam blames all of his troubles on Victor. Heather tells him they will have a life together in the future, but Adam says he's useless now. Heather assures Adam he is intelligent, caring, and that she loves him. They kiss passionately and make love. Adam tells her she's the only person he trusts now.

J.T. and Victoria arrive at the Ranch. Victoria tells Victor it was very difficult for her to learn that he had Sabrina's statue removed and to see him take her portrait down. Victor admits it was hard for him, too. He wants Victoria to help him rebuild his art collection and Victoria is moved. She says that this action shows her that her father understands and that she's going to make Sabrina very proud. When Victoria leaves, J.T. thanks Victor for doing that - it means a lot to Victoria and made her happy. He tells Victor Nikki believes Estella was framed. Victor wonders who else could have set up Estella. Victor wonders about Mary Jane. They discover Mary Jane has been at the Ranch quite often! Victor says he'll take it from here. J.T. leaves. Adam listens as Victor calls Mary Jane and arranges to meet with her outside his home.

At the courthouse, Estella is upset and Nikki tries to reassure her. They are both surprised when Ashley appears and says Estella will be brought to justice! Estella goes into the courtroom and Nikki tells Ashley Estella was framed - most likely by Adam! Ashley says Adam has been there for her and her baby many times and couldn't have framed Estella. Rafe appears and tells Ashley the charges against Estella will be thrown out, but it won't undo the emotional stress that she and Victor have put Estella through. Rafe goes into the courtroom and is able to get Estella out of prison on bail. Before she leaves, Ashley tells Estella she might be free for now, but it won't last. Ashley demands to know why Heather didn't oppose bail and Heather tells her Estella has no prior record, is not a flight risk, and the evidence is circumstantial. Nikki tells Ashley an innocent woman is being punished because she and Victor cannot see who is really trying to hurt her.

Jack walks into the Club dining room in time to hear Noah tell his parents they are too screwed up to handle their own lives, let alone his. Jack comes over and says it's a big deal to become an emancipated minor and asks to speak with Noah alone. He tells Noah his parents love him. Noah says they ruined so many people's lives, including Jack's. Jack denies this, but Noah doesn't believe it. Jack encourages Noah to wait a few weeks to make a final decision on becoming emancipated. Noah agrees and leaves. As Jack walks back over to Sharon and Nick, Sharon get s call notifying her that the paternity results are in. Jack says he knows Sharon hopes Nick is the father and he hopes she gets her wish.

At the coffeehouse, Victoria expresses her excitement about rebuilding her father's collection. J.T. sets some ground rules - no more meeting with strange guys in dark alleys! Victoria decides which piece she will acquire first and makes a call about it. The same man who threw the glass when he found out Daniel was out on bail takes the call!

Victor meets with Mary Jane. He says she's crossed boundaries before and now she's doing it again - getting involved with his family, wandering on his property, and stabbing him in the back - does she think she's going to get away with it?! Victor asks her several questions, including if she recognizes the spot - where Sabrina's statue was. She doesn't understand what he's talking about. He tells her the statue was mutilated and she denies having anything to do with it. Victor tells her to keep focused on Jack Abbott alone.

Nikki talks to Rafe after court. She says she suspects Adam of framing Estella. She tells him about how Adam has lied to her and how Sabrina's voice was coming out of his computer. Rafe is definitely interested.

Noah Wants to Divorce His Parents

Ashley arrives at Restless Style looking for Abby. Abby's there doing a photo shoot today. Abby appears and her mother tells her she looks beautiful. They hug. Abby expresses concern about all of the stress Ashley has been under. Ashley assures her it's over now - Estella has been arrested. Abby says she still cannot believe Estella did all of those things and still thinks it may be Adam.

Kevin visits Jana in jail. He informs her and Michael he did a successful speaking engagement at the school today. Michael informs them he set up a meeting with a judge to try to get her to reconsider letting Jana out on bail. Michael heads out. Jana says she cannot believe she's back in jail again, but Kevin assures her they'll get her out of there.

Noah and Eden stand outside of Crimson Lights as Noah prepares to meet Abby at the photo shoot. Eden remarks that Abby would never let her be a part of something like that. Noah asks Eden to meet him at Restless Style after her shift at Crimson Lights and she agrees to after Noah promises to make Abby behave.

At the counter inside the coffeehouse, Amber gives Daniel a pen and piece of paper and tells him to write down all of the people who might want to see him crash and burn. Daniel is stumped - he can't think of a single person who would want to set him up for murder! Amber wonders if someone is trying to get Daniel out of the way so he or she can get at her. Daniel tells Amber this doesn't have anything to do with her. Kevin comes in and Daniel apologizes for Jana being in jail. Kevin says he knows Daniel didn't mean for any of this to happen. As they talk, some teen girls come into the coffeehouse and tell Kevin they saw him speak at their school today about the silver chipmunk - he's awesome!

Heather arrives at the Ranch and Victor lets her in, but tells her to make her visit with Adam short because another specialist is coming to see him. Dr. Donahue arrives and Heather goes up to tell Adam he is there after she is introduced to him.

Adam is on his phone in his room with Dr. Taylor, trying to get more botox. Adam is frantic and demands the doctor cancel his surgery to bring him more botox or he'll be telling the medical board about what he's done! Heather knocks on the door and lets herself in. She tells Adam Dr. Donahue is here and she is puzzled by his not wanting to be examined again. Adam tries to get Heather to help him cut off his ankle bracelet, but she won't do that for him. She tells him he'll just go back to jail. Heather tells Adam to give the doctor a chance and leaves. Victor comes in and Adam asks him why he hates him, why he keeps setting him up to fail. Victor tells Adam they owe it to Hope to take advantage of this opportunity. Victor tells Adam to come downstairs and leaves the room.

Adam listens around the corner as the doctor tells Victor he has advanced equipment and that it can detect if Adam has RP for sure. Adam imagines what will happen when the doctor tells Victor Adam has been faking all along. Adam turns to go back up the stairs, but Victor stops him.

Michael arrives at the coffeehouse and chats with Eden. He tells her he's so proud of her for her grades - he knows how hard it has been on her. Eden says she still misses her dad sometimes. Michael asks Eden if she is still with Noah and proceeding with caution. Eden doesn't want to have that talk with him, so he tells her Lauren is always available for her to talk to. He tells her she shouldn't be in a rush to grow up and she's welcome with him and Lauren as long as she likes. Eden and Michael head over to Daniel, Amber, and Kevin and Michael is somewhat puzzled about Kevin's new popularity. Kevin gets a call about another speaking engagement and Michael hopes this will help Jana's case. Amber tells Kevin she is proud of him and Kevin tells her it's all because she got him on the radio show. They agree that one of their enemies might be trying to set Daniel up. Michael advises Daniel not to make one false move or he will end up with his bail revoked. Amber is up to something on her computer and goes off by herself. Daniel tells Kevin he has an idea on how to find out who is setting him up - they need to get the victim's cell phone from the evidence room. Daniel wants Kevin to go get it, saying, "Do it for Jana!"

Noah comes into the Restless Style office not completely pleased with his look. Ashley and Abby love his look, however! Ashley leaves and Abby warns her to be careful around Adam as she does so. Noah and Abby finish their photo shoot and talk about which one of them is more spoiled! Abby says she heard Nick and Sharon are back together. Noah is skeptical about how long it will last. He asks Abby if she can keep a secret - he's thinking about divorcing his parents! Abby tries to point out the downside of living on his own, but Noah says he doesn't mind - he wants to be free. Eden comes in and Abby blurts out that this must be Eden's idea. Noah tells Abby it was his idea, not hers. Abby says if Noah should be emancipated from anyone, it should be Eden! Noah escorts Abby out and tells Eden to ignore her.

Ashley arrives home at the Ranch and tells Victor to feel the baby kicking, but he can't feel it! Adam and Dr. Donahue come downstairs and the doctor informs Victor this has been a waste of time because Adam has puncture wounds in his eyes. He says it seems Adam has been injecting something into his eyes! Victor demands to know what kind of monster Adam is and accuses him of being the one who has been tormenting Ashley. Adam says the people who beat him up in prison also stuck him in the eyes with hypodermic needles! Adam also denies being the one who is scaring Ashley. Victor asks the doctor if Adam could have injected himself in the eye with something in order to fool other doctors. Dr. Donahue informs him the tests show Adam has been suffering with the eye disease for quite some time and he will become permanently blind. He tells Victor Adam cannot participate in the trial because of the damage that was done to his eyes from the injections. While Adam absorbs the information, Victor says he's sorry to hear about this.

Michael runs into Heather before he is about to meet with the judge. Heather informs Michael she's re-opening the murder case against Jana! Michael tells her they should deal with one case at a time.

Amber discovers she may have a cyberstalker. She texts her former partner, Allie to see if she may have a cyberstalker as well.

Michael goes to visit Jana in jail and informs her that Judge Collins is leaning towards re-opening her old murder case. He says Heather really wants a conviction this time. Jana cries. She says she knew this would happen - she took someone's life. Michael reminds her she was sick at the time. He says she's done so many good things - she helped Kevin turn his life around and they're not going to let her slip through their fingers! Jana says she's lucky to have Michael and Kevin in her life, but Michael says they are the lucky ones.

Ashley tells Victor Adam couldn't have done all of those things to scare her. Victor feels guilty that he didn't get Adam out of jail sooner - he could see he was getting beaten up. Adam throws a book across his room in frustration. Ashley comes in and tells him how sorry she and Victor are. She assures him he'll get through this and she tells him since he's been there so many times for her and her baby, she's going to be there for him through this. Adam cries on Ashley's shoulder.

Money Found At Crimson Lights

Nick and Sharon get ready for their day in their room at the Club. Nick wants to make love instead of going house hunting, but Sharon convinces him to go by reminding him that Summer is waiting for him. They talk about Noah and how he will volunteer at the Rec Center this summer. They kiss. Sharon asks Nick if he's told Phyllis they're taking Summer house hunting today and Nick admits he hasn't told her yet.

Jana, Daniel, Kevin, and Amber are in the apartment talking. Jana and Daniel are going to meet with Michael, but Daniel plans to go visit Phyllis first and fill her in on what's going on. Daniel and Jana leave while Kevin and Amber stay behind. There's a knock at the door - it's Aucker, the FBI agent - and he's got a search warrant to search the apartment for the missing money! Kevin says it's odd that it's the do-gooders that are in trouble this time instead of them, and Amber agrees.

At the Chancellor Mansion, Nina comes downstairs and inquires if the lab has called back yet. Katherine tells her they haven't. They wonder whether Jill is trying to cover something up, but Katherine points out that she was just as surprised the records were missing as they were. Katherine wonders if Nina will tell Jill that Violet wasn't in town when the babies were switched, but Nina wants to wait to tell her. The lab calls and tells Nina the man who dealt with Phillip's case before has disappeared after it was proven that he falsified documents! Jill comes into the room during the call. Nina tells Katherine and Jill what's going on and she says now she knows something is going on. Jill defends Cane, but Nina says she didn't say Cane was lying - she said someone was lying and that someone doesn't want them to know who's buried in Phillip's grave. Nina and Jill argue about whether or not to exhume Phillip's body. Jill says it nearly killed her when she had to exhume what she thought was her mother's body, this would kill her - she forbids it! Nina tells Jill it's not up to her. Katherine points out it doesn't really matter who is buried in Phillip's grave because they all love him. Nina becomes frustrated and yells, "I want to know who's in that coffin!" Jill finally agrees to the exhumation so that they can find out if Nina's son has Huntington's, but Jill insists that no other DNA tests should be done. Katherine agrees with Jill, and Nina agrees to the stipulation.

Cane leaves a worried message for Phillip at Jimmy's. Lily comes in and asks Cane if he's still worried about what Nina's doing. Cane says his mom will take care of it, but Lily points out that he tossed and turned all night in his sleep last night. Lily wonders what is really going on and Cane tells her about how it was growing up without a family and watching other kids in their families. Cane says it feels good to belong to a family now and he's afraid it will all disappear. Lily assures him that he's a Chancellor and her husband and it won't change.

Daniel visits Phyllis at Restless Style and they engage in some small talk before he tells her what's going on. Phyllis admits Nick told her about Victoria being involved in an art scheme. Daniel tells her it is the same thing. Phyllis tells Daniel to stay out of trouble and to be careful. Daniel then asks about Summer and Phyllis says she is doing okay, but she also wonders why daddy isn't tucking her into bed anymore. Daniel goes to say hello to Summer before he leaves Restless Style to meet with Michael.

Mary Jane and Jack sit down at a table at the Club for breakfast. Mary Jane becomes annoyed when Jack takes a phone call from Phyllis, leaving the table so he can talk with her privately. She sees Sharon at the bar and goes over to her and apologizes for her behavior the last time she saw her. Mary Jane congratulates Sharon on her reunion with Nick - she's a sucker for love stories. Mary Jane inquires if they plan on staying together - is she done with Jack? Sharon is shocked to hear that Mary Jane and Jack are seeing each other again. Mary Jane tells Sharon Phyllis said she wouldn't stay with Nick and might go back to Jack. Sharon tells Mary Jane not to listen to Phyllis. Jack comes over and Sharon asks to speak with him privately. Mary Jane excuses herself to make a phone call. Sharon asks Jack if they are okay. Jack admits it was hard for him to watch Sharon leave with Nick the other day, but he will always be there for her. They hug and Mary Jane watches. Sharon inquires about him and Mary Jane and tells him that she wants him free and clear. Jack says he's not ready for anything serious with, "that woman!" Mary Jane comes over and tells Jack she needs to head to Restless Style and kisses him. After Mary Jane leaves, Sharon tells Jack Mary Jane is infatuated with him. Jack says Mary Jane isn't the bunny-boiler type!

Jana and Daniel meet with Michael at Jimmy's. He asks them about what happened on that night and Daniel admits he touched the gun. He also tells Michael he didn't see the money or Victoria. Daniel mentions the man with the ski mask and Jana tells Michael that's who Aucker should be looking for. Michael tells them if Aucker isn't doing his job, they will. Michael discovers the dead man had a cell phone on him with Daniel's number in the contact list. He says the DA isn't going to arrest them right now, but they are still suspects and he wants them to live the lives of saints until the money is found.

Nick arrives at Restless Style to pick up Summer and Phyllis is calm. He tells her that they are going to look for a house today. Phyllis isn't so sure this is a good idea because it's so soon after Nick moved out. Nick points out that Summer can't come to the Club for visitation and that things are going to change and need to be stable for Summer. Phyllis tells him leaving his family and hooking back up with his ex is anything but stable! Just then, Summer appears with George, the photographer. He suggests putting Summer on the cover of Restless Style, but Phyllis is reluctant. George says Summer would be a great cover for a magazine on teens and kids and Nick agrees. Nick suggests they do some test shots. Mary Jane walks in on what appears to be a close moment between the family.

Kevin and Amber go to the coffeehouse and they are relieved not to find the cops there. Amber follows Kevin into the back room for more sweetener and they discover the briefcase full of money! Kevin speculates this is the money the feds are searching for. Amber and Kevin agree it had to be planted there because there's no way Daniel or Jana would hide it there. Aucker comes in with a search warrant for the coffeehouse. As he is searching the back room, Michael, Daniel, and Jana come in. Amber and Kevin gesture wildly, but Aucker comes out with the briefcase full of money. Daniel insists he doesn't know how it got there. Michael commands him not to talk. Daniel is placed under arrest and Michael calls Phyllis to tell her what's happening.

Phyllis hangs up and says she has to leave at Restless Style. Nick wants to know what's going on and Phyllis tells him Daniel has been arrested. She tells him it's got something to do with that art scam Victoria got caught up in. Nick insists on driving Phyllis. She finally agrees and they ask Mary Jane to watch Summer for them. Nick also calls Sharon to inform her on what's going on. Mary Jane tells Summer not to worry about daddy not living with mommy anymore because Auntie Mary Jane will take care of everything and that everyone will end up with whom they are supposed to be with - happily ever after!

Jill calls Cane and he takes the call at Jimmy's. She tells him Phillip's body is being exhumed to test for the Huntington's gene and that no other DNA testing will be done. She says no one disbelieves Cane. Cane calls Phillip again, but he still isn't home. Cane leaves a message, saying it's urgent.

Nina makes a call to the lab and asks them to do another DNA test on the body when it is exhumed!

Paul Receives A Restraining Order!

The Young and the Restless update for Thursday June 11, 2009:

At the hospital J.T. wonders why on earth he let Victoria go undercover. Nikki arrives and wants to know what happened! The doctor comes out and says Victoria is fine, but they are going to do a CT scan to make sure. She also says they need to observe her because she's had a serious head injury in the past. Nikki calls Victor to alert him to what is going on.

Daniel and Jana try to explain the situation with the art piece to Kevin and Amber. Amber and Kevin are both shocked that Daniel would risk his life over a painting! Daniel finishes his story by telling everyone he has been framed for fake Aucker's murder and he's in a lot of trouble now. Daniel insists they need to get out of there now because the apartment is the first place the FBI is going to look for him. Daniel opens the door to leave, but the FBI is already there! Harold Aucker wants to know where Daniel was tonight and he tells the agent he was at home sketching. Aucker tells Daniel Victoria has been injured and Daniel inquires if she's all right. Aucker also informs him that a murder took place. In response to this, Daniel asks if Victoria saw anything. Aucker insists that because Daniel didn't ask who was murdered, he must already know! Daniel says he assumed it was someone involved in the art forgery scheme. Aucker shows Daniel a picture of the victim and Daniel confirms that this is the man who scammed him. Aucker leaves telling Daniel he will be keeping his eye on him and he plans to prove that Daniel and the rest of them are lying. Amber tells Daniel they can leave town now, but Daniel points out her designs are just starting to take off. Amber says she'll give all of that up. Kevin points out Jana is an accessory to murder - she told Daniel where the sting was going down! Daniel decides it's best to tell the truth.

Heather and Paul sit at the coffeehouse and talk. She teases him about being hauled down to the police station. Paul explains that he did some digging in Mary Jane's past and some things just didn't add up. He says when he confronted her about it, she overreacted, which makes him believe she's hiding something even more. Paul tells Heather what he found out and she wonders why this is so important to him. He tells her he swears he knows Mary Jane from somewhere - there's a strange connection. Heather says she hates it when pieces of the puzzle don't fit together. Suddenly, Mary Jane approaches with a man and Paul is served a restraining order! Heather is shocked any judge would grant a restraining order. She gives Mary Jane a dirty look as Paul is forced to leave the Club to obey the order.

At the Ranch, Victor thanks Adam for looking out for Ashley while he was away. Adam tells Victor it's the least he could do after everything Victor's done for him. Ashley appears and flashes back to falling down the stairs. Victor asks her what's wrong. She tells Victor she had a nightmare while he was gone and Adam suddenly asks her if she wants some tea. Victor gets a call from Nikki, informing him about Victoria, and he heads to the hospital. Adam remembers the night of the accident. Ashley comes in with some tea and toast and they sit down. She tells Adam she just felt the baby kick and puts his hand on her belly so he can feel it, too! Adam calls the doctor, who comes over. He asks the doctor how Ashley could be feeling the baby if there is none? The doctor tells Adam Ashley is having a hysterical pregnancy and it would be very traumatic for Ashley if he let her continue to believe she still has a baby inside her. He insists Adam needs to stop this now! Ashley appears and the doctor claims he's there to follow-up with her. He checks her out and tells her everything is as it should be. Ashley wants the doctor to meet Victor. When Ashley leaves the room to get some coffee for the doctor, he worries about what Victor will do if he finds out what's going on. Adam says he doesn't need to worry about Victor, but if he doesn't do what Adam wants, he needs to worry about him!

Victor joins J.T. and Nikki at the hospital. J.T. explains to him how he found Mary Jane on the property and that's why he was late getting to the bar and why he wasn't there when Victoria got injured.

Aucker visits Victoria in her hospital room. He asks her what happened. She tells him she went into the alley and called Balfour's name, she heard someone running away, found the body, and then the crates fell on her. She says she only saw J.T. in the alley. Victor, Nikki, and J.T. come into the room and Victor asks J.T. to escort the FBI agent out. Victor and Nikki visit with their daughter while J.T. tells Aucker to stay away from his wife outside the room. Aucker insists J.T. can't stop him because it's a federal investigation. J.T. threatens him. Victor and Nikki return to the hallway where Paul has arrived. Paul apologizes for being so late and tells them about Mary Jane and the restraining order. Victor says this is the second time he's heard Mary Jane's name tonight and asks Paul what he's going to do. The doctor interrupts and tells them Victoria only has a concussion and she can go home tonight.

Daniel, Amber, Kevin, and Jana find Aucker at Jimmy's bar and tell him the whole truth about what happened. Aucker accuses Daniel of being the fake Aucker's accomplice! Daniel tells him some man with a ski mask shot the victim, but Aucker says they found the gun and it has Daniel's fingerprints on it. Daniel admits he was afraid the fake Aucker would use the gun, so he picked it up and threw it away before he ran off. Aucker asks what happened to the briefcase of money and Daniel says he doesn't know anything about that. Aucker tells them the bottom line is two men went into the alley, only one came out alive, and $100,000 and a painting is missing. Before he leaves, Aucker tells Daniel if the money shows up in his possession, he's going to jail for a very long time!

Before Victor leaves the hospital, Nikki asks him how Ashley is doing. She admits she saw her talking to Sabrina's statue. He says perhaps Ashley finds it therapeutic. Nikki also tells him some strange things happened while he was away. Nikki tells him everything that happened - including how Adam told her Ashley went out with Jack when she stopped to check on her, how he sent the maid home with the night off, and how a strange doctor came to examine Ashley. Nikki says she feels badly for Adam, but she doesn't trust him - something was very wrong in that house last night. Victor assures her he will check it out.

As Paul and Nikki have coffee at Crimson Lights, she asks him if he's doing okay. He responds that the restraining order adds spice to his life. She's disappointed when she finds out Paul plans to keep digging into Mary Jane's pat. He assures Nikki he won't violate the restraining order, but now he's more determined than ever to figure out why Mary Jane gets so freaked out when he's around.

Mary Jane holds a picture of Paul next to her "enemies" scrapbook in her room at the Club. She says to herself out loud, "I can't do it. I don't want to be enemies with you, Paul."

The man wearing a ski mask goes into the coffeehouse and slips the briefcase full of money behind the counter!

Once back at the Ranch, Victor asks Adam and Ashley about the strange things that happened while he was away. Victor says he'd like to meet the new doctor and Ashley assures him he will. Ashley tells Victor the baby kicked earlier while he was out and she's sorry he missed it. Ashley heads upstairs. Victor stops Adam before he heads to bed and tells him Nikki mentioned he gave the maid the night off the other night. Adam says he did. Victor tells Adam he doesn't want him to be in the house alone with Ashley - he always wants someone else to be in the house as well. Adam wonders why Victor doesn't want him to be alone with Ashley. Victor reminds him that Ashley is fragile right now and Adam cannot see! After Victor goes upstairs, Adam whispers, "Sorry, Victor, but we're doing things my way now!"

Mary Jane - The Spy

The Young and the Restless update for Tuesday June 9, 2009:

Sharon awakens at the Club in bed while Nick emerges from the shower and joins her in bed. Sharon says that Jack will be worried about her because she didn't come home last night. Nick tells her he already knows.

Phyllis wakes up on her sofa to find Jack sitting in a chair beside her. Phyllis thanks Jack for taking her home from the Club and staying with her. She says J.T. will be bringing Summer home, so Jack decides to leave. Mary Jane watches Jack leave outside and whispers that Phyllis cannot steal her man!

Daniel talks to Jana on the phone and tells her he can't let the fake Aucker sell the forged painting. He tells Jana he's going to go to the ally to stop Aucker before he meets with Victoria. Daniel prepares to leave, but Amber comes in and starts kissing him, telling him they have to celebrate. Daniel tells Amber they can celebrate later - he needs to go out and get supplies. Amber says he's lying - he doesn't want her! Daniel is afraid another relationship talk is approaching. Amber tells Daniel they are celebrating the fact that one year ago Katy Pary told Amber she liked her designs. She shows him a bra design she made just for him and Daniel gives in and makes love to her. After making love, Amber talks about how great things are for them and how she was afraid of Kevin when they were on the run. Amber finally falls asleep. Daniel sneaks out. After he's gone, Amber sits up and asks, "Okay, Daniel, what are you up to?" She makes a phone call to someone and tells them she thinks they have trouble!

J.T. comes home after taking Summer home to Phyllis. He walks in on Aucker putting a wire on Victoria. J.T. is annoyed and angry that Victoria didn't talk to him about going undercover. J.T. forbids her to go undercover to catch the fake Aucker. Victoria tells him this decision is hers and she wants to do it - she feels Sabrina would tell her do it as well. The FBI agent assures J.T. that Vikki will be safe, but he's not convinced. Victoria says it's the right thing to do! J.T. says he admires Victoria's courage, but he's also scared. He finally agrees to let Vikki participate in the operation, but says he's going with her!

At the Ranch, Ashley waits to see Adam's friend, the doctor. She tells him she's anxious because she doesn't feel the baby as much, but admits she's not cramping as much as she was last night, either. Ashley heads upstairs to rest and wait for the doctor and the doorbell rings. Nikki has arrived and she confronts Adam about lying to her last night. Nikki insists on seeing Ashley now! She starts to head upstairs, but finds a towel on the floor and hands it to Adam before heading upstairs. Adam is relieved Nikki didn't see the blood on the towel. The doctor arrives and Ashley and Nikki come downstairs to meet him. Nikki is skeptical of the doctor, but Ashley wants to know that her baby is okay. The doctor examines her and says she and the baby are fine. He hands her some anti-anxiety medication, which Nikki is concerned about. Nikki thinks Ashley should get a second opinion, but she refuses to let Nikki call Olivia.

After Summer has been brought home, Mary Jane knocks on the door and wants to know how Phyllis is doing. Phyllis tells Mary Jane she doesn't want to discuss it in front of her daughter. She introduces Mary Jane to Summer and sends Summer upstairs to get a doll to show Mary Jane. Phyllis tells Mary Jane Nick came home last night, but only long enough to tell her that he's leaving her! Nick arrives at the door - ringing the doorbell - and Summer runs to him. Mary Jane leaves and Phyllis sends Summer to play with her dollhouse upstairs. Nick emphasizes he thinks it's important for his daughter to see him everyday and Phyllis agrees with him. Summer's new teacher arrives to drive her to school and tells Nick and Phyllis she loves their love story in Restless Style. After Summer's teacher goes upstairs with Summer, Phyllis tells Nick the teacher thinks they are a perfect couple and so did she. Nick says he wishes this didn't hurt Phyllis so much and he still has feeling for her. Phyllis tells Nick that she thinks he's making a mistake. Phyllis asks Nick to leave and he does. Outside, Mary Jane watches Nick leave and says to herself that Phyllis blew it - she chased him away! Inside, the teacher tells Phyllis Summer has been acting out in school - throwing fits when she doesn't get her way - and suggests Summer may need therapy. Phyllis assures her that they'll work it out. Summer and her teacher leave for school.

Jack and Sharon meet in the Club's dining room. Sharon tries to tell Jack she got in very late last night, but finally admits the truth - she didn't come home at all. Jack asserts he understands her ending up with Nick - it was fate. Sharon is afraid Jack will hate her, but Jack assures her that he will always love her. He says he knows raising the baby together is no longer in the cards, but if the baby is his, he will be a father to it. Jack tells Sharon not to feel guilty. Sharon suddenly feels the baby kick for the first time and Jack has to excuse himself - he is heartbroken.

Victor meets with a doctor who needs funding for stem cell research at the Club. Victor has bought the company and has provided the funding for the research. The doctor assures Victor he will do everything he can to make sure Adam regains his sight!

At the Ranch, the doctor goes upstairs to Adam's room. He tells Adam Ashley had a miscarriage and he doesn't know how Adam convinced her otherwise. Adam threatens the doctor with the letters Skye and her friends wrote about how the doctor sexually assaulted them. He tells the doctor if he does not keep quiet, he will show the letters to the AMA! Nikki enters and the doctor leaves. Nikki wonders where the staff is and Adam admits he gave them the night off. Nikki says she'll be back in a couple of hours to check on Ashley. Once she's outside, she calls Victor and asks him to call her ASAP.

Jack arrives at the tackhouse again and Mary Jane watches as he and Phyllis embrace. Jack tells Phyllis how he felt the baby kick when he was with Sharon on top of everything else. Phyllis tells him he doesn't deserve this. They are startled when a dead black bird comes crashing through the window and lands beside them!

Adam joins Ashley downstairs. Ashley is looking at baby clothes and feels relieved after seeing the doctor. She thanks Adam for helping her get through the night. Just then, Victor arrives and asks what Adam helped her get through? Ashley tells Victor how glad she is he's home. Victor reads Nikki's text when his phone signals him. Victor talks to the baby he thinks is inside Ashley's stomach and Adam watches and listens from around the corner.

Nick returns to the Club and meets Sharon. Sharon says she's sure Phyllis wants to kill her, but Nick says it'd be better if Phyllis were angry instead of in so much pain. Sharon tells Nick the baby kicked when she saw Jack earlier. They kiss.

As J.T. leaves the house to follow Victoria and Aucker on their mission, he sees Mary Jane cutting through the property. Mary Jane tells J.T. she was just taking a walk, but he grabs hold of her and tells her this is private property and she needs to tell him who she is and what she's doing here!

Nick and Phyllis Are Over

The Young and the Restless update for Friday June 5, 2009:

Jack stops by the Ranch and tells Adam he's going upstairs to see Ashley. Adam tells Jack that Ashley's sleeping and he shouldn't disturb her. Upstairs, Ashley dreams of Sabrina calling her name. Ashley goes out into the hallway where she finds a veiled Sabrina. Sabrina says, "Victor's mine, stay away!" Ashley screams and Jack hurries upstairs to check on her. Adam smirks. Ashley tells Jack she had a nightmare. She says she dreamed of Sabrina before and she was peaceful, but this time Sabrina wanted to kill her! Adam listens in on his laptop while Ashley tells Jack how Sabrina was wearing a veil and the purple gala dress she found on her bed on her birthday. Jack reassures Ashley it was just a dream. Ashley finds out Olivia sent Jack to check on her and she's angry about that, but Jack says they're just concerned about her. Jack suggests Ashley come home with him for a couple of days - just until Victor gets back, but Ashley doesn't want to leave the Ranch. Adam walks into the bedroom and tells Jack the storm is too bad to be driving a pregnant woman around in!

Gloria and Jeff continue to develop their plan to get revenge on Victor in their penthouse. Gloria is worried about taking Victor on. Jeff gets a call from his PI telling him Victor just left on his jet and Mary Jane's at the Club. Gloria and Jeff leave to go to the Club.

At the Club's bar, Sharon asks Mary Jane if there's a problem. Mary Jane explodes that there wouldn't be a problem if Sharon would just back off and leave Jack alone! Mary Jane tells Sharon that she's selfish and she doesn't appreciate Jack enough. Sharon tries to leave, but Mary Jane grabs her arm. Paul and Nikki intercede, but Mary Jane wants to know how Sharon could allow Jack to raise her baby that may not even be his! Before she leaves, Mary Jane tells Sharon to do the right thing for once and let Jack go. Nikki pulls Sharon aside and asks about Jack not being the only possible father, but Sharon tells Nikki she's had enough judgment for one night and leaves. Gloria plops down by Nikki and tells her that she's worried about Ashley being at the Ranch all alone without Victor in this storm. She wonders how Ashley and Victor are doing these days, and Nikki is baffled by Gloria's sudden concern for Ashley.

At the Club's bar, Jeff chats with Mary Jane. She brushes him off, thanks him for the drink, and walks away. Nikki wonders what Jeff is doing at the bar with Mary Jane and Gloria said she could never keep a leash on him. Nikki believes she and Jeff are trying to get revenge on Ashley and Gloria denies it adamantly.

Nick ponders on how to tell Phyllis what he's decided - he says there's no easy way to tell her. She comes to the realization that he wants to be with Sharon instead of her. Nick tells her not to shut down - to throw something, yell, or cry - let it out. Phyllis tells Nick even if she had any tears left, she wouldn't waste them on him. Phyllis says she doesn't understand why Nick is leaving her if it's not for Sharon. Nick reminds Phyllis that Sharon is with Jack, and Phyllis realizes that Nick wants to make himself available so that Sharon will leave Jack for him. She tells Nick not to deny the truth. Nick finally admits he's leaving Phyllis for Sharon, whether he wants to admit that or not. He says he thought his feelings for Sharon would fade, but they haven't done so. Phyllis says she bought into the fantasy, too. Nick says he wishes he could spare her this pain and tells Phyllis how grateful he was to find her after Cassie died. Phyllis wonders if she was merely a therapist with benefits, but Nick says he loves her - her passion and drive. He says he has history with Sharon, though, and a family. Phyllis becomes irate yelling that she and Summer didn't ask for this! She calms down, though, and wonders what she's going to tell Summer when she asks why daddy isn't living with them anymore. Nick offers to sit down with Phyllis and talk with Summer, but Phyllis tells him to leave and go to Sharon. Nick says he'll get a room at the Club. Phyllis tells him he can see Summer whenever he wants, but she won't be there.

While Jack argues with Ashley about staying at the Ranch, he gets a call from Phyllis. He tells Ashley he has an emergency and leaves. Adam tells Ashley to get some sleep before he leaves her room. In the hallway, Jack grabs Adam by the collar and tells him if anything happens to Ashley while he's gone, he's going to hold Adam personally responsible! After Jack leaves, Adam tells the maid to go home. She insists she was to stay and watch over him and Ashley, but Adam tells her there's no need to stay. She goes home.

Paul goes to Mary Jane's room to see if she's okay after her outburst downstairs at the Club. Mary Jane says she's tired of women like Sharon, women who string men along without a second thought about who gets hurt in the process. Paul remarks that it sounds like Mary Jane has been hurt before, but she evades the comment by telling Paul she's really tired. Paul is about to leave, but turns around and tells Mary Jane something inside of him is telling him he should care about her. Outside her door, Jeff sees Paul leaving Mary Jane's room and believes Paul is having an affair with her!

Jack arrives at the tackhouse. Phyllis tells Jack Nick has left for good this time for Sharon. Jack is convinced that Sharon won't leave him because she's committed to raising the baby with him. Phyllis tells Jack as soon as Sharon realizes she and Nick are getting divorced, she will leave Jack for Nick and the sooner they accept this, the easier it will be for both of them. Jack tells Phyllis he proposed to Sharon earlier that night, but she had reasons as to why she was not ready. Phyllis says Sharon was waiting to see what Nick was going to do! They talk about how they've both been in denial. Suddenly, Jack kisses Phyllis! They make love and Mary Jane watches them from the window outside. She has tears in her eyes.

At the Club, Sharon sees Nick going into his room. Nick tells her it's over between himself and Phyllis. Sharon tells him she still has her room there and she needs some time to think because she's so overwhelmed right now. Nick invites her in. Mary Jane sees Sharon go into Nick's room and says, "Poor Jack!" Inside Nick's room, he tells Sharon he left Phyllis because he is still in love with her. Sharon wonders if he still loves Phyllis, and Nick says a part of him will always love Phyllis, but not the same way he loves Sharon. Sharon says she should go, but Nick says he wants her, he wants them, and he wants it all back. He says he won't deny he has feelings for Phyllis, but he can't be devoted to her alone the way she wants him to be. Sharon says she can't believe this is real - that her dream has come true! They kiss and make love.

Nikki and Paul are downstairs at the Club. She tells Paul that Victoria called and she's worried about Ashley being at the Ranch alone in this storm with Victor being away, but she can't check on Ashley because she has the kids. Nikki decides to go over to the Ranch to check on Ashley and to meet Paul at home later.

Gloria and Jeff are back at the penthouse and compare their results. Gloria is disappointed because she didn't get any information out of Nikki. Jeff tells Gloria Mary Jane is sleeping with Nikki's fiance, too! They laugh out loud together.

Ashley is awakened from her sleep by Sabrina calling her name again. Ashley grabs a flashlight and begins to look for whoever is calling her. Ashley reaches the top of the staircase and hears someone call her name behind her. She turns around to see a veiled figure. She grabs the veil off the figure and sees Adam in a long black wig. Ashley's startled and falls down the stairs! Adam runs down the stairs and begs Ashley to wake up as Nikki begins to knock on the door to check on Ashley!

John Appears to All of His Children

The Young and the Restless update for Wednesday May 27, 2009:

Adam listens via his laptop while Olivia and Victor comfort Ashley after her nightmare about Sabrina. Victor asks Ashley if she can remember her dream, but she tells him she can't remember the details. Adam is frustrated because he wanted to make her nightmare come true! Olivia tells Ashley she had vivid dreams when she was carrying Nate and it's not a problem if it's not disturbing her sleep. Ashley admits she needs to sleep more, but she doesn't want to take drugs. Olivia suggests some lavender under her pillow and Victor offers to get her some. Ashley says she'll try to go back to sleep and Victor and Olivia leave the room.

Gloria and Jeff tromp into the coffeehouse while Gloria complains about how they had to spend four days getting home by boat and bus. Gloria wants to go to the Club to take a bath, but Jeff tells her they've been kicked out and their stuff has been put into storage until they pay! Jeff suggests Gloria sell her diamonds, but she says it's too risky. Jeff says she'll have to borrow money from Michael and Kevin or get a job. Jeff and Gloria search the classified ads and they discover a pent house apartment. Gloria says they have to keep the landlord from finding out they can't afford it, and Jeff loves the idea.

Jack is at home when Jill pays him a visit. She thanks him for helping her with the Caymans situation and then tells Jack they are both victims of Katherine's corporate greed. She says Katherine will never sell the Abbotts Jabot. Jill says she has a great business partnership idea, but Jack doesn't want to have anything to do with it. He tells Jill to talk to the "Mustache" about it! Jill tells Jack he's making a mistake as she leaves. After she's gone, John appears and says Jack could have been nicer to Jill. John says he's disappointed with both of his sons for being petty. Jack points out that Billy slept with Sharon, but John reminds Jack that he slept with Jill when she was married to his father as well. Jack says he doesn't want to talk about that. John reminds Jack to remember that no matter what, Billy is his brother.

Billy calls Chloe in the pool house. He gets her voicemail and he tells her that she's made her point - she and Delia need to come home now! Jill shows up at the pool house and asks Billy what Jack's problem is. She tells him how Jack blew her off when she said she had a great business proposal, and wants to know if Billy will talk to Jack for her. Billy tells his mother that he and Jack are not on good terms right now. Jill wonders where Cordelia is and Billy tells his mother that when he came home, Chloe and the baby were gone. Jill wants to know what Billy did this time, and Billy seems offended that she automatically thinks he did something wrong. Jill says she knows Chloe loves him, but wonders if he wants Chloe back. Billy says he doesn't want to hurt Chloe or lose Delia. Jill remarks that Cordelia will always be a part of his life and she can't blame Chloe for walking out on him because he cannot make a commitment. She tells him he needs to decide if he is in or out.

Raul and Mac chat outside by the pool at the Chancellor mansion. Raul wonders if Billy cheated on Chloe. Suddenly, Chloe appears. Raul offers to go talk some sense into Chloe, but Chloe says she doubts it would do any good. Mac offers to go and Chloe says she thinks it would be worse if she went. Esther comes out and Chloe tells her mother she is done being a doormat. Esther and Chloe go in and Raul tells Mac that perhaps Billy is not in love with Chloe. Raul wants Mac to go back to Washington with him.

Esther and Chloe talk outside. Chloe tells her mother that Billy has shut her out completely. She says she needs to set an example for Delia - she should not be treated this way. Raul tells Mac he was promoted at work and he'd like to hire her and work with her while they are planning their wedding. Mac says she's not ready to leave Genua City yet - she wants to spend more time with Katherine first. Raul worries about how they will see one another - he does not want to be separated from her again, but Mac says they'll figure it out. Mac walks over to Chloe and apologizes for the way things are going between her and Billy. Chloe says this is all Mac's fault. Mac insists it isn't her fault. Raul walks over and kisses Mac good-bye. When he leaves, Chloe says he's a nice guy - too bad he is clueless! Chloe says she's glad Delia is too young to know what is going on as she giggles nearby. Mac and Chloe talk about their childhoods - Chloe assumed Mac had it easy. Mac notes that Chloe really loves Billy. Chloe says that makes two of them. Mac says she doesn't love Billy like that anymore, but Chloe tells Mac that Billy doesn't know this.

Ashley sits and holds a pillow in her bedroom. John appears and greets Ashley. Ashley begins to talk to her father about how scared she is, and Adam is baffled, squinting at the laptop where Ashley appears to be talking to herself. Ashley tells her father how much she wants this baby and she doesn't know what she'll do if she loses it. John tells her not to put so much pressure on herself. She tells her dad that she remembers the dream and lied to Victor about it. She says the doorknob was rattling and Sabrina comes into her room wearing a black veil. She says that Sabrina wanted to smother her and picks up the pillow to do so. Ashley goes back to sleep and wakes up later in pain.

Downstairs, Victor and Olivia talk about having Ashley talk to a therapist again, but Victor doesn't want to push her into another nervous breakdown. Olivia suggests that Victor see a psychologist so that he can learn what signs to look for himself. Olivia gets on the phone to make the arrangements. Adam comes into the room and discusses Ashley's situation with Victor. As Olivia is getting off the phone, Ashley comes downstairs and announces she's bleeding - she's scared she might be losing the baby!

Jill runs into Gloria and Jeff at the coffeehouse and they all try to pretend they didn't lose everything. In the end, though, they all admit they are destitute. They promise one another they will tell no one how broke they are.

Esther sits down with Chloe to chat some more. Esther says she's known Mac a while and she believes she's a straight shooter - she doesn't play games. Chloe gets Billy's message and tells her mom he did not apologize. Esther asks her daughter if it's more important to be right or happy? Jill appears and says she loves having Cordelia at the house - she wished they'd never left in the first place. Jill advises Chloe not to give ultimatums if she is not prepared to live with the consequences - she says Billy is very confused and he could go either way at this point.

John appears to Billy in the pool house and tells him he has a lot of growing up to do! John asks Billy what he's going to do about Chloe and Delia. Billy says he doesn't know - does his father have any suggestions? There's a knock at the door and it's Mac. She wants to know why Billy isn't at the Chancellor mansion trying to get Chloe and his daughter back! Mac tells him if he wants to do right by his daughter, he'll go over there now and get them back. She reminds him that he does not want another man raising his daughter. Billy confronts Mackenzie about marrying Raul. She tells him she loves him, and even if Billy were available she'd marry him because she and Billy can't go back now.

Gloria and Jeff go to Restless Style to talk to the owner of the penthouse they want to rent - Phyllis! Phyllis is surprised they want to rent from her, but agrees to let them do so, provided they give her first and last month's rent and deposit as the lease calls for. Gloria and Jeff laugh about how great this is - there's no need to do any background checks. Phyllis points out that they didn't sign the check before she takes a phone call. Gloria and Jeff congratulate each other on their luck, but realize they only have about $100 after Phyllis cashes their check. Jack appears and he's shocked when Phyllis hands Gloria and Jeff keys as they leave. Phyllis wants to know what Jack wants and he says he wants to talk about Sharon's baby!

Raul Returns!

Cane and Lily enjoy their morning in bed on their honeymoon. Lily feeds Cane fruit, and the talk about taking a walk on the beach. They make love. Afterward, Lily tells Cane she was afraid she'd never be able to trust a man again, but Cane changed all of that for her. She says she can't wait to get back home to start their married life together. Cane says he thought he'd never have a beautiful wife and a family, but because of Lily, he does. Lily says she feels safe with Cane, that she feels like he will protect her and not let anything bad happen to her. Cane says he'll always be there for her. They get out of bed and have a champagne toast. Lily says she doesn't know much about Australia, and she thinks they should go there before they start having kids.

Nina and Amber argue about what to put in the screenplay at the Chancellor mansion. Nina wants to focus on Katherine stealing Jill's baby and finding Cane later in life while Amber wants to focus on all the great things Katherine's done instead of her mistakes.

Murphy and Esther sit out by the pool while Mac and Katherine prepare the food. Katherine inquires about Chloe's visit yesterday and Mac says Chloe just wanted to make sure Mac wasn't encouraging Billy's behavior. She tells her grandmother that Billy will be backing off anyway because there's another guy. Mac says she was in Darfur with him and it could have gotten serious.

In the pool house, Billy asks Chloe a lot of questions, and she reveals to him that she visited Mac yesterday. Chloe tells Billy Mac is crazy about someone, but it's not him! Billy says Mac made this guy up to appease Chloe, but Chloe doesn't buy it. Chloe says she doesn't think Mac would lie. She says it must be difficult to hide a broken heart. Billy gets irritated and tells Chloe to chill out a bit.

At the Abbott mansion, Sharon is planning to go to Cassie's grave site. Jack offers to go with her, but she says she wants to go alone. Jack wonders if Nick will be there and Sharon says she's decided not to see him today. She tells Jack she's scared that she won't be able to talk about Cassie and not tell him about the baby that might be his!

Phyllis suggests that Nick go home to get some rest - he didn't sleep well last night. Phyllis says she assumes Nick will be meeting Sharon at Cassie's grave site later, but Nick tells her he can't reach Sharon. Phyllis offers to go with him to the cemetery, but Nick says he wants to go alone. He kisses her and heads out.

Nick goes to the Abbott mansion and tells Jack Sharon isn't responding to his phone calls. Jack tells Nick Sharon doesn't want to see him today - she wants to get through this alone. Jack says Sharon has her own reasons for wanting to do this alone, but Nick assumes it's because he wasn't there for her when Cassie died. Jack points out that Nick was grieving as well, but Nick continues to talk negatively about himself. Jack tells Nick his need to help Sharon isn't about Sharon, but is instead about him. Jack says this is Nick's "stuff," and he needs to deal with it and let Sharon be.

Billy and Chloe arrive at the Chancellor mansion for the barbecue and Katherine and Esther greet them. Mac goes to get some pool toys and Billy quickly says he'll help and follows her. Katherine inquires about how things are going for her and Billy. Chloe says they are better than when they started. Billy inquires as to why Mac called him yesterday and she tells him she found the karaoke tape. She suggests he let Delia listen to her "silly daddy" someday. Billy accuses Mac of making up her boyfriend to put Chloe at ease yesterday. Mac is angry; she gets up and storms away from him. Later, Billy apologizes for upsetting Mac. Mac tells Billy she had told him she'd moved on - what did he think she'd meant? She says of course she was with someone else and she cared very deeply for him. Billy wonders why Mac called him then? Mac says it was an impulsive thing to do and she wishes she could take it back - she doesn't know what she ever saw in him!

Amber, Chloe, and Nina sit at a table by the pool and chat. Amber asks what Phillip III was like, and Nina says he was a complicated person. Nina wonders how Cane figured out he was related to Jill. Chloe tells Nina to ask Amber about that because she was married to Cane. Amber wonders why Nina wants to get into all of that. Amber changes the subject and asks Chloe about Billy and Mackenzie. Chloe isn't happy that Billy is hitting on Mac in front of her entire family, and Amber wonders why Chloe puts up with the disrespect. Amber tells Chloe Billy doesn't deserve her! Nina pressures Amber to talk about Cane again, and Amber finally tells Nina Katherine began to have nightmares and finally realized she had switched the babies at birth. Amber explained how Katherine found Cane through a lot of Internet research and hired a psychic to help her.

Sharon goes to Restless Style and when Phyllis asks her if she's looking for Nick, Sharon said she already knows he isn't there - his car wasn't there. She asks Phyllis to keep Nick at the office for a while so that she can go to Cassie's grave alone. Phyllis says Nick is already at the grave site, so she can wait at Restless Style for a while if she wants. Phyllis inquires as to why Sharon wants to avoid Nick today and Sharon tells her it's best for everyone if she keeps her distance from Nick - she's back with Jack now and she's not living in the past anymore. Sharon thanks Phyllis for being hard on her when she was relying so hard on Nick, even though she resented her at times then. Phyllis admits she was selfish as well. They clear the air between them. Sharon assumes Nick is done at Cassie's grave now, so she's going to go have some time with her daughter.

Jack arrives at the barbecue and greet Katherine, telling her Sharon won't be attending because she's spending time at Cassie's grave. They go outside and everyone mills around for a while. Suddenly Jack says, "Raul Guiterrez! What is this, a Glo by Jabot reunion?" Everyone greets Raul and Billy introduces everyone. Raul is shocked that Billy has a wife and a baby now! Mac comes up behind Mac and says, "Raul?" They kiss passionately. Murphy notes that the kiss is some kiss hello! Billy stares in shock.

Sharon arrives at Cassie's grave and talks to her, saying she would have been in college now. Sharon begins to cry and Nick appears. Sharon told him she didn't want to see him and tries to walk away, but Nick grabs her arm to stop her. He tells her he thinks they need to grieve for Cassie together, and they talk about how hard it is to move on from her death, how hard it is to let her go. They wonder if Cassie would want them to move on or if she feels lonely now and if they moved on, if she'd feel abandoned. Nick wonders what Cassie would think about what their lives have become. He says her prophecy cannot come true now. Phyllis arrives and sees Nick and Sharon talking, so she hides behind the gate to listen. Sharon tells Nick Cassie's prophecy may come true because she's pregnant and the baby might be his!

Sharon's Unravelling

The Young and the Restless update for Thursday May 21, 2009:

Billy looks at his cell phone in the pool house and sees he missed a phone call from Mac. He tells Chloe he has to go to work to work on a special project from Jack. Chloe picks out a tie for him to wear, and he leaves. Chloe thinks back to their morning in bed when Jack knocks on the door. Chloe tells Jack he just missed Billy - he just went to start that new project Jack gave to him. Jack looks confused! He utters under his breath he knows exactly where Billy is. Chloe tells Jack Billy has been great lately, and he is surprised to hear this. They discuss how impulsive Billy can be, and Chloe begins to wonder if that is what this morning was. After Jack leaves, Delia begins to cry. When she goes to get Delia's blanket, she finds Billy's phone and sees that Mac called.

At the Chancellor mansion, Mac listens to the duet tape she and Billy made. Katherine comes into the room and tells Mackenzie she wanted to give her a heads up - she is going to invite Billy and Chloe to the barbecue. Mac talks to Katherine about Billy, saying even if he left Chloe, he'd still be miserable because he would feel he let Delia down. Kay says if she hadn't shown up at the wedding, Billy's focus wouldn't have been on her ever since then, but Mac says she can't help that - she's tried. Kay wonders what would have happened if Mac had shown up earlier and Mac admits she doesn't know.

Paul shows up at Mary Jane's door and says he knows her from somewhere and it's driving him crazy. With a little convincing, Mary Jane finally agrees to meet Paul downstairs in the Club for lunch. When Mary Jane comes downstairs, she's wearing sunglasses, telling Paul she feels a migraine coming on. Paul begins to ask Mary Jane about her background, but she doesn't give him a lot of information. Paul says he recognizes her laugh and says perhaps they met through a family connection? Mary Jane gets pretty uncomfortable and suddenly jumps up, saying her migraine is killing her, and leaves. After she's gone, Paul makes a phone call and orders a full background check on Mary Jane!

At Restless Style, Nick looks at the drawing Summer gave him and flashes back to when Cassie gave him a drawing of their family. He comes back to the present in order to thank Summer for her drawing. Nick sighs and wonders when this gets easier. Phyllis says she wishes she could do something to help him, but Nick says she already has - she's given him Summer. Phyllis wants to know what Nick is feeling - no matter what it is. Nick finally tells her he's worried about Sharon - she's unravelling and she has been for a long time now. Phyllis says she's worried about Sharon too - she has a lot going on. She tells Nick she can see Sharon falling apart, but she's getting the help she needs now. Nick feels guilty because he wasn't there for her when Cassie died and that's when all of this started. Phyllis tells Nick he made a mistake, but he'd never do that again - he's a different person now. Nick feels he needs to be there for Sharon now, but Phyllis reminds Nick he isn't her doctor, priest, therapist, or husband. Nick tells Phyllis Sharon has told him to stay away, but he feels this is all his fault. Phyllis tells Nick Sharon may want to move forward with Jack, but she can't because Nick won't let her go. Nick tells Phyllis he values her and Summer. Phyllis tells Nick not to think for a second that she doesn't need him as much as Sharon does. Phyllis leaves the office while Nick draws with Summer.

Sharon holds Cassie's drawing and cries. Billy comes in and asks if she's okay. He wants to know why she moved back in with Jack - it's uncomfortable for him. He wonders if it is uncomfortable for her as well. Billy worries about what would happen if Chloe and Jack found out he might be the father of Sharon's baby. Sharon tells Billy Jack already knows he might not be the baby's father. Billy wonders if there is a third candidate for the father?! Sharon says Jack knows she was with someone else, but he doesn't know it was Billy. Billy insists that Sharon living at the Abbott mansion isn't ideal because it could all blow up in their faces! Billy says he would fall in love with the baby if it is his. Billy says Jack's been like a father to him and he doesn't know what he'd do if Jack ever found out. Suddenly, Jack appears and wants to know what he's interrupting!

Sharon says she was already emotional before Billy came in. Billy leaves the room. Sharon tells Jack Billy was worried about him - he doesn't want to see him get hurt again by Sharon. Jack buys this and he tells her not to worry. Sharon tells Jack Nick deserves the truth. Jack tells Sharon she shouldn't tell Nick yet because she'd be ruining a marriage and Summer's world and it might be for nothing. Sharon says she needs to tell Nick because she needs him right now. Jack realizes Nick is the only other person who knows what it's like to have lost Cassie. Sharon tells him it hurts worse than he can even imagine. Jack wonders if she wants to hurt Nick, and if not, she shouldn't tell him yet. Sharon agrees and they hug.

Chloe goes to the Chancellor mansion. Mac asks how she is and Chloe says she isn't doing great and she believes Mac knows why. Katherine comes in and invites her to the barbecue tomorrow. Chloe thanks her, but says they need some family time. Katherine takes Delia outside to see the decorations. Chloe confronts Mac about calling Billy, telling Mackenzie it's hard enough to try and build a life with someone as immature as Billy without Mac interfering. She says she can't even make love with Billy without Mac calling and reminding him of what he doesn't have. Mac says the call was an impulsive thing to do - she just wanted to show Billy something she thought he'd find funny. Chloe wants to know what she wants with Billy? Mackenzie tells Chloe she isn't a threat to her marriage. Chloe insists if it weren't for Cordelia, she'd let Mac and Billy be together because she doesn't like humiliating herself like this. Mackenzie says she doesn't want to be the other woman. As they talk, Chloe learns that Mac and Billy never slept together. Mac also tells her that up until recently, she was seeing someone else seriously. Chloe wants to know what happened, and Mac says timing, she isn't very good at it.

Billy goes back to the pool house, looking for Chloe. He checks his phone and finds no messages. He goes to the Chancellor mansion and overhears Chloe bidding farewell to Mac and Katherine. Chloe says she'll be attending the barbecue after all, and Mac promises to keep her distance. Chloe asks Mac why she doesn't bring a date. Chloe suggests bringing the guy from Africa, but Mac says they haven't talked in a while and isn't sure it'd be a good thing. Billy leaves.

Nick calls Sharon while she's on the couch at the Abbott mansion, but she doesn't answer it.

Billy returns to the pool house, angry. He's surprised when he finds Jack there. Jack tells Billy Sharon told him what's going on and thanks him for looking out for Jack where Sharon is concerned. Jack says he knows the baby may not be his, but he doesn't mind. Billy tells his brother he hopes it works out for him because he'll make a wonderful father. Jack hugs his brother.

Tyra's Not Related

The Young and the Restless update for Tuesday May 19, 2009:

At the reception, Daniel tries to get Lily and Cane to smash the cake into each other's faces. Cane says Lily is too pretty to do that, but Lily has fun getting some cake onto Cane. Daniel takes some pictures for the Restless Style website. Afterwards, Devon sits back down with Virginia. He says a comment she made earlier confused him - he says she made it sound like Tyra wasn't related to him. Virginia tells Devon Tyra isn't blood-related - Devon's grandmother took Tyra in when she was young after her mother died! Devon asks if Tyra knows, and Virginia says she does, she's known since she was a teenager. Devon is quite shocked that Tyra didn't tell him about this.

Billy talks with Katherine about Mac. He says something bad always slips out of his mouth when she's around and he's frustrated. Kay points out that that ship has already sailed, yet he is still chasing it with an anchor named Chloe around his neck.

Michael and Lauren eat dinner at the Club. Lauren checks on Eden and Fen by phone and tells Michael they're fine. Michael remarks that at least they know what they're doing. He says he hasn't heard from Gloria and she isn't returning his messages or texts. Michael worries Gloria and Jeff are getting into trouble, but Lauren tells him that if they are in trouble, they will call. Lauren says it's time to concentrate on them - they haven't had a date night in ages. She hands him an envelope with the tickets to Monte Carlo in it - she wants to cash in her trip! Also in the envelope is a room key. Michael calls out for the check so they can head upstairs.

At the reception, Mac talks with Kevin and Jana and apologizes for Billy's behavior. Kevin tells her it's okay - Billy's always been a jerk and he doesn't know what she ever saw in him!

Jill asks Katherine if she is really going to do this movie and Katherine says she is. Jill expresses that she thinks it's a horrible idea. Nina tells Jill if she'd quit being so self-obsessed, she'd realize it is a great idea. Murphy makes a suggestion for an actor for the movie, and Amber says maybe they can get Glenn Close to play Jill - she did a very convincing Cruella DeVille! Jill threatens to put a stop to the movie.

Neil dances with Tyra and says there is still so much he doesn't know about her - he'll enjoy finding out more. Devon dances with Roxanne and glares at them nearby. Neil tells Tyra he speak to Devon about this - he doesn't have the right to tell Neil who he can date and when.

Lily and Daniel talk. Lily says she's thinking about becoming an interior designer, and Daniel says she'll make a great one. Daniel and Lily agree that although things didn't work out for them as a couple, things turned out well for both of them. They wish each other well and hug.

Amber goes over to Chloe and remarks that Lily has it all. She says she wishes for once in her life, she was living the fairytale. Chloe asks about Daniel, and Amber tells her at the rate they are going, she'll be Katherine's age before they get married! Chloe tells her to make it happen - she has before.

Jill complains to Billy about the movie Katherine is going to make. Billy observes she really isn't upset about the movie - she's upset about the trouble Jack said she was in. Jill makes Billy promise he won't tell anyone. She tells him she's broke! Billy promises he won't tell anyone and offers his mother help from the trust John left him. Jill says Billy is very sweet, but she will manage. Billy goes over to Chloe, Cane, and Lily and Cane thanks Billy for coming to the wedding. He proposes this could be a new start for all of them. Billy agrees they should give it a shot. Chloe apologizes for her past actions and wishes Cane and Lily the best. Cane picks Lily up and starts to carry her out. She tosses her bouquet and Amber catches it!

Michael and Lauren make out and eat brownies in bed in their room at the Club. Afterward, they head home. Michael tells Lauren she makes him feel like a teenager and they agree to plan their trip to Monte Carlo in the morning.

At the reception, Kevin tells Amber she'll be the next one to get married, but Daniel says if it isn't broke, don't fix it. Amber is displeased with this comment. Mac is about to leave, but Billy stops her. He apologizes for his behavior toward Kevin, but Mac doesn't feel like forgiving him. She walks away. Chloe joins Billy so they can leave, but he asks her to wait. Billy goes over to Kevin and Jana and apologizes for his behavior. Jana goes off on Billy. After Billy leaves, Kevin says he doesn't need Jana fighting his battles for him! Alone now, Kevin and Jana slow dance in the silence and Kevin thanks her for being so patient with him - he knows she didn't sign up for a crazy husband. Jana tells him she promised to stay by him in sickness and in health. They kiss. They head home and make love in the elevator.

Roxane, Devon, and Ana are back at Lily and Cane's decorating and picking up the dog for the night. Roxane asks Devon why he's so upset and he tells her he's upset about Neil and Tyra, but she doesn't understand why he's upset about them dancing together.

At the Chancellor mansion, Katherine, Murphy, Mac, and Nina sit in the living room chatting. Jill comes in and complains she had hoped to find some peace and quiet. Murphy offers to rent Jill the trailer, where she can find a lot of peace and quiet, but Jill tells everyone she isn't going anywhere! Jill leaves the room. After she's gone, Mac says she feels sorry for Jill. Nina says that Jill's always been a mess and it's her own fault. Katherine says she's tried to let Jill know she doesn't have to be alone. Once Mac and Nina are alone, Nina remarks that it's weird being back because there are so many reminders of Phillip - it's hard to believe he's really gone. They bid each other a good night. Mac goes to get something out of her car, and opens the front door to find Billy standing there!

At home, Daniel is uploading the photos to the website, but Amber wants to talk. She tells Daniel she's already lost two children and her biological clock is ticking. Daniel says they've already talked about this - he's not ready to make that kind of commitment. Amber becomes offended, thinking Daniel doesn't want to be married to her. Daniel says he doesn't want to get married to anyone right now - he thinks they still have plenty of time. Amber wonders if she should waste her time on a relationship that isn't going anywhere, but Daniel tells her that an ultimatum won't change his mind. Amber goes to bed, holds the bouquet she caught, and cries.

Cane and Lily come home to find their place decorated. Cane tells Lily Devon took Humphrey for the night. They kiss. Lily changes and they have a toast. Lily says they'll never be apart again. Cane says he's made mistakes, but he promises to never disappoint her again. They begin to kiss and move onto the couch to make love.

Devon checks on Virginia at the Club, and she tells him how good it is to see him again - she was sad when they lost touch before. She tells Devon she's sad about what the drugs did to his mom, and she wasn't always that way. She says Devon and Ana got their singing voices from their mother - she had a beautiful voice as well. Virginia hands Devon a letter Yolanda wrote to Devon's father a long time ago - she never sent it. Devon reads the letter where Yolanda tells him she gave birth to his son. He realizes his father never knew he had a son.

Neil takes Tyra to his house and pours them drinks. He toasts to her - the second most beautiful woman at the reception tonight - next to Lily. They begin to kiss and head to the bedroom to make love.

Chloe is at home where Delia begins to cry. Chloe picks her up and holds her, thinking.

Mac asks Billy what he's doing there. He says he had to see her. Mac begins to scream at Billy to leave her alone! Katherine comes to the door and tells Billy he heard her - go home. As Billy leaves, Kay hugs Mac.

Estella Didn't Make the Call

The Young and the Restless update for Monday May 18, 2009:

Ashley runs into Victor's arms when he arrives home at the Ranch. She cries and tells Victor she can't stay in this house anymore - Sabrina called and said she was going to die! Victor sits Ashley down on the couch and she tells him how Sabrina kept saying it was her and that she couldn't escape, Ashley was going to die. Adam tells Victor he was standing right there the entire time Ashley was on the phone, and that it must have been Estella. Victor checks Ashley's phone and it reads, "invalid number." Victor then calls Estella's house and Rafe answers the phone. Victor has him check the outgoing calls, and finds out Estella didn't call. Victor tells Adam it wasn't Estella.

Nina compliments Phyllis and Nick on Restless Style at the wedding reception. They ask her to write a piece for them, and she agrees happily. Nearby, Jill tells Billy she can't believe both of her sons got married within a few weeks of each other. Billy asks Jill again about what kind of trouble she was in, and Jill avoids the question. Jana and Kevin arrive and Kevin is feeling anxious about the crowd. Katherine comes over and tells Kevin to take it one day at a time, to take it one second at a time if he needs to, and they are all going to be there to support him. Roxane and Devon talk with Ana and Tyra. Mac asks Devon if he has seen Colleen. Billy comes over and informs everyone Colleen had to leave because her grandmother was in an accident. Ana asks if she will be okay, and Billy says they don't know yet. She says she'll pray for her. Devon gets a call informing him that Cane and Lily are on their way in.

Everyone applauds as Cane and Lily appear. Nina congratulates the couple, and Cane says he'd like to meet Phillip one day. Amber and Chloe agree that Lily's dress is boring, just like her. Jill overhears the conversation and informs them that the dress was her mother's! Jill wonders why Amber is even there. She asks Jill why she's such a hater - is it because she's close to Katherine? Jill says she disliked Amber long before she became close with Katherine. Nick and Phyllis talk with Cane and Lily. Phyllis tells them the response to the Restless Style cover has been great.

Tyra squeals happily when she sees Aunt Virginia come into the reception. Devon introduces his Great Aunt Virginia to Roxane and Neil. Virginia thanks Neil for what he's done for the family. Tyra wants to talk with Virginia, but Devon takes her to get a drink first. Neil says this is exciting - Tyra and Ana have more family than Devon - but Tyra does not seem to be thrilled. Virginia meets Lily and Cane and tells them she'll be in town for a while.

Nick and Phyllis talk with Daniel and Amber. Phyllis asks Daniel to have the photos uploaded tonight. After Amber and Daniel leave, Nick and Phyllis reminisce about their reception. Phyllis brings up the incident with Sharon in the club, and Nick says she wasn't feeling well. Phyllis says Sharon seems to not feel well most of the time. Nick suggests they have some fun - they've been through a lot together and they're still here. They drink to survival and fun.

Cane and Lily dance for the first time as husband and wife and share a passionate kiss. Jill and Neil begin to dance next and agree that Cane and Lily are great in-laws to have. They joke about grandchildren as well. Devon asks Mac to dance and thanks her for filling in for Colleen while Billy watches. Jana convinces Kevin to dance and Amber asks Daniel to dance, but he says he can't right now because he has to keep taking photos. She seems dejected. Billy pulls Chloe onto the dance floor and they joke about old times and their wedding. Neil cuts in and dances with Lily. She tells her father she hopes her marriage to Cane is half as good as his was to Dru. Jill dances with Cane and Jill suggests he take his father's name. Katherine and Murphy dance alongside Jill and Cane and Katherine says she loves Cane just as she did Phillip and she believes taking the Chancellor name is a good idea. Cane says he wants to think about it. Cane dances with Katherine, then, and Murphy dances with Jill. Cane remarks that Jill is being civil with Katherine, and Kay says she hopes Jill is softening.

Amber finally gets Daniel to dance by the door. Kevin and Jana come up alongside them and they switch partners. Nick and Phyllis dance nearby and kiss. Virginia talks with Devon about Tyra adopting Ana. She says she thought courts usually prefer a blood relative to adopt a child, and Devon is confused by this statement. She leaves to freshen up. Billy comes over to Kevin and starts taunting him, calling him the silver chipmunk and a psycho. Mac overhears this and tells Billy he's nothing like the way she remembered - she is so disappointed in him!

Katherine, Jill, and Nina talk about Cane meeting Phillip, Nina's son. Amber comes over and asks them if they are talking about the movie. Jill wonders what she's talking about and Amber tells her she and Nina are co-writing Katherine's book into a movie. Jill is not impressed.

Lily and Cane give a speech about how they appreciate their families and friends before they cut the cake. Neil goes to put his hand on Tyra's shoulder, and Devon rolls his eyes at this.

Olivia arrives at the Ranch at Victor's request. Victor fills her in on the phone call - he thinks Ashley might be stressed and he wants her to check Ashley out. Ashley is thrilled Victor called Olivia to come check on her. Olivia asks Adam to leave them alone for a moment, so he leaves the room. Adam talks to Victor, who asks him if he heard a voice on the other end of the phone. Adam says he only heard Ashley's voice. Olivia takes Ashley's blood pressure and temperature. Ashley tells her that Victor must think she's losing her mind, but Olivia assures her he doesn't think that. Olivia tells Ashley her temperature and blood pressure are elevated and she wants Ashley to check into the hospital for the night. She wants Ashley to talk to someone. Ashley becomes upset, telling Olivia she doesn't need to talk to anyone - she needs for her and Victor to believe her! Olivia tells Ashley she believes her. Adam comes back into the room and tells Ashley Estella didn't make the phone call! In the other room, Olivia tells Victor she wouldn't dismiss the idea that Ashley may be having another nervous breakdown. Victor says he was afraid of that. Olivia returns to Ashley and leads her upstairs to get some rest.

Victor thanks Adam for being so kind to Ashley. Victor leaves the room. Adam says it's a little late for that!

Nick and Phyllis go back to Restless Style so Phyllis can find her keys. They agree they've had more fun than they've had in ages. They make love there and agree doing so makes them feel more connected.

Ashley Wants to be Sabrina?

At the coffeehouse, Ashley and Olivia eat cake - it's Ashley's birthday. Ashley promises to take it easy, telling Olivia that she and Victor have a dinner for two planned later.

Kay and Lauren run into each other at Crimson Lights as well. They talk about Kevin's progress and the fact that Gloria gaslit Katherine in order to get those Jabot shares. Lauren tells Katherine Sharon stole $10,000 worth of merchandise from Fenmore's and she's pressing charges.

Sharon sits with Heather in the Club dining room. She is about to confess to taking all of the stolen items when Nick comes up to them and pulls Sharon aside. He asks her what she's thinking - she's about to self-destruct! He wants Sharon to drop the charges against Phyllis, but Sharon refuses. Nick says he's sick of Sharon and Phyllis arguing with each other. He asks Sharon if he wants her to take away Noah's mother and step-mother on the same day - the anniversary of Cassie's accident?! Nick asks Sharon to tear up her confession and to drop the charges against Phyllis, but she says she can't. She does agree, though, to wait a while until Nick returns.

Jack arrives at the police station and wonders where Nick is. Phyllis said he should be coming, and tells Jack she's made a mess of things. Jack says he knows that she made the mess in Sharon's room - the disaster had her written all over it! Jack points out that she and Sharon have each had each other arrested, and Phyllis is going to lose Nick if she doesn't quit scheming and harassing Sharon. At first Phyllis tries to defend herself, but eventually accepts her responsibility. Jack says this is a wake-up call to her. Jack suggests Phyllis show some understanding towards Sharon and her situation. Before Jack leaves, Phyllis tells him he's a good friend.

Neil finds Olivia at Crimson Lights and tells her he's given his resignation at Newman. But now, he's second-guessing himself. Olivia tells him he should listen to his gut - just as he should have before he married Karen. Olivia points out that his attraction to Tyra before he married Karen should have told him he wasn't ready to be completely committed to Karen. Neil admits he didn't feel the same way with Karen that he felt with Dru. He says he still misses Dru. Olivia says Tyra might be the right one for him and she might not be, but whoever is will be a lucky woman. Neil says he's going to begin figuring it out right now and gets out his phone to call Tyra.

At Newman, Victor and Victoria talk about Neil's resignation from the company. Victoria tells Victor that Phyllis was arrested for vandalizing Sharon's room, and Victor wonders when Phyllis and Sharon will learn to get along. Victoria tells her father he might as well be wishing for world peace! Victoria thinks it's good that Noah has somewhere stable to stay while all this chaos is going on. She wishes Victor a nice night with Ashley for her birthday.

Nikki stops by the Ranch and talks with Estella a little. She asks how she and Ashley are getting along and Estella admits things are worse than they were before. Estella moves the coffee table slightly. Adam appears and he and Nikki have a pleasant conversation. Suddenly, Adam falls over the coffee table! Nikki helps Adam get up and Estella comes into the room to help as well. Estella apologizes profusely for moving the table. Adam tells her it's OK - it was just an accident. Nikki leaves. Estella sits on the couch with Adam, who admits he's terrified because everyday gets darker and darker for him. Estella tries to reassure him that things will get better, but Adam isn't so sure.

Lauren arrives at the police station where she finds Phyllis. Phyllis says she was caught for vandalizing Sharon's hotel room. Lauren tells Phyllis Eden begged her to drop the charges against Sharon for Noah's sake, and Phyllis shocks Lauren by telling her she agrees! Phyllis says she's tired of seeing the kids suffer. When Nick is coming into the police station and Lauren is going out, Lauren tells Nick she is dropping the charges against Sharon because his wife asked her to. Nick apologizes for taking so long to get there to Phyllis and says he talked to Sharon, but she refuses to drop the charges against Phyllis. Phyllis admits to Nick that her scheming made things worse and from now on she wants to be honest with him. She says she expects the same from him - she just wants to be happy again.

Nikki, Victoria, and Katherine sit in the Club dining room where Nikki fills them in on Adam's accident. Nikki says she has a hard time feeling sorry for Adam and Victoria agrees. They also agree that there's something odd about Adam - he can't be trusted.

At the Ranch, Victor encourages Ashley to go upstairs and get ready for her dinner. Upstairs, Ashley finds a gown, shoes, and earrings laid out for her and assumes Victor picked them out for her to wear. She puts them on and comes downstairs. Victor turns around to see Ashley in the gown and drops the glasses he's holding, asking Ashley why she's wearing that dress?! Ashley's confused. Victor commands Ashley to go upstairs and change out of it immediately. A shocked Ashley goes to do so, and Victor asks Estella if she remembers packing the dress. Estella says she put Sabrina's gown in storage months ago. Victor wants to know who was in the house that day, and Estella tells him that Nikki was there earlier. Victor leaves. Later, when Ashley comes back downstairs in a different dress, Estella tells her that the dress she had put on was the dress Sabrina wore the night of her accident. Ashley immediately blames Estella for this, and both she and Estella become upset.

Tyra meets Neil at the coffeehouse. He asks about Ana before he tells her that it will take a long time for him to get over how he hurt Karen. Tyra tells Neil she has strong feelings for him, and Neil admits he has strong feelings for her as well. Neil says he wants to take things slowly though, and Tyra says she can be patient. She kisses him and leaves.

At the Club, Jack and Mary Jane are celebrating how great his interview and photo shoot went. Mary Jane suddenly invites him to enjoy his champagne up in her room instead! Jack hesitates slightly, but then follows her upstairs. Once they are in her room, Mary Jane kisses him and throws him down on her bed! After they've made love, Jack brings up the fact that Mary Jane has a husband and says he can be discrete. Mary Jane laughs and tells him she's not really married - she just tells people that when she travels. She says if they make love a few more times, they won't be doing anything wrong, and kisses Jack some more.

Katherine meets with Neil at the Club. Katherine says she knows he resigned at Newman. Neil observes that Katherine has a leadership gap at Chancellor and says he can fill it! Neil wants to be CEO at Chancellor and Katherine remarks that his work is exemplary. She says she'd be honored if Neil would work with her.

Nick goes back to the Club and tells Sharon that Phyllis got Lauren to drop the charges against her for Noah's sake. Nick says now she can tear up her confession and she can get the help she needs. Sharon tells him it's too late - Heather is on her way to get Sharon's confession - she got tired of waiting for Nick. Heather arrives and asks Sharon for her letter. Sharon hedges and Nick grabs the letter and tosses it onto the fire. Heather tells Nick he'll be arrested for obstruction of justice, but Sharon says she wanted him to do that. Heather is pissed. After Heather leaves, Sharon asks Nick what happens now. Nick says the family has been through enough. He says Sharon needs to show the same mercy to Phyllis she showed her. Sharon agrees, but tells Nick to leave her alone from now on!

Nick returns to the police station and informs Phyllis he just saw Sharon and that she agreed to drop the charges against her. Nick says they can move forward, now.

Lauren confronts Sharon in the dining room at the GCAC. She says the only reason Sharon isn't going to prison is because of Eden. She says that even though Sharon blamed Eden for everything that has gone wrong in her relationship with Noah, she begged Lauren to drop the charges against Sharon for Noah's sake. Sharon tells Lauren she will never forgive herself for allowing Eden getting blamed for the stolen books. Lauren warns Sharon if she ever hurts Eden again, she's going to re-file the charges!

Victor goes to the Club and walks over to Victoria and Nikki. He immediately accuses Nikki of arranging for Ashley to wear Sabrina's gala gown. Nikki is furious. She tells Victor Ashley had the opportunity and motive to do that herself - Sabrina's spirit still lives at the Ranch and in Victor's heart. Nikki says Ashley's had mental problems in the past - maybe she wants to be Sabrina.

Ashley is alone in her room at the Ranch, and she's shocked when she finds a photo of Victor and Sabrina, who is wearing her gala gown, along with her credit card receipt for the dress! Ashley asks I didn't buy this....did I?

Phyllis is Caught!

Billy sits with Jill in the GCAC dining room, and she thanks him for allowing her to visit with Delia. As she holds Delia, her cell phone rings and Jill ignores it, telling Billy it's probably just another reporter. Billy comments that they need to find something to get her and Katherine off the front page. Jill leaves cheerfully.

Gloria finds Jeff at the Club bar. She shows him what she bought for Kevin. Jeff tells her to be careful about money because she might have to pay it in a civil suit. Jill stops by and she and Gloria snap at each other. Gloria says she has to go see about getting this civil suit dropped and Jeff says he has some business to attend to as well.

Phyllis and Lauren talk at the coffeehouse. Phyllis says she is unable to press charges, and Lauren thinks this is ridiculous. Lauren tells Phyllis she is still planning on pressing charges. They discuss how this will affect Noah, and Phyllis says it might do him some good to see his mother pay the consequences for her actions.

Sharon writes a confession in her room at the GCAC. Nick shows up and wants to help her, but Sharon doesn't want his help. Nick doesn't want her to feel as if he's abandoning her, and she assures him she doesn't feel that way. Sharon tells Nick that she is writing a confession and Nick tries to talk her out of it. He wonders how Noah will react to his mother being in jail. He also says Sharon needs help and she isn't going to get that in jail. Sharon tells Nick that it is none of his concern - he needs to be with his family. She says Noah needs to see his mother take responsibility for her actions. Before Nick leaves, he tells Sharon to talk to her lawyer before she decides to confess to anything.

Later, a man comes to Sharon's door with something she will want to see. It's a video of Phyllis trashing her room and cutting up her clothes. Sharon says she knows just what to do!

As Jack hands Colleen all the information she'll need to mess with the Newman Board at today's board meeting, Mary Jane ushers the camera crew in to set up for Jack's photo shoot and interview. Colleen says she's nervous, but Jack assures her she'll do great. Jack starts his interview, but Mary Jane steps in and fixes his tie and hair in a flirtatious way. Billy comes in with Cordelia, and Mary Jane offers to watch her while he goes to look for a file he needs for a business meeting. Delia begins to cry and Mary Jane hands Jack the baby. The cameras snap away, taking Jack and Cordelia's picture together. Jack convinces Billy to leave Delia with him while he goes to his meeting. When Mary Jane leaves, Jack says to Delia, "We like her, don't we."

Victoria and Victor discuss today's board meeting at the Ranch. He says he doesn't see any issues with her proposal for the expended fragrance line. Victoria asks him how Ashley is doing, and Victor says she's doing all right. He then thanks her for taking on more of his responsibilities at Newman so that he can watch over his family.

Ashley walks around outside and says to herself that she heard a baby crying. She comes upon the statue of Sabrina and a baby. She goes back to the Ranch as Victor is confirming Ashley's birthday arrangements. Ashley asks about the statue and Victor says he had it commissioned. He asks if it bothers Ashley, and she says she was just surprised by it. He leaves.

Noah runs into Abby at the coffeehouse. She teases him about Eden, and Noah tells her to back off. Just then, Eden comes into the coffeehouse, followed by some boys who mock him. They tease him about how his mother steals. One boy tries to get Noah to fight him, but Eden and Abby convince him not to fight. When Noah leaves, Eden finds Lauren and asks her not to press charges against Sharon. Lauren is shocked. Eden says she knows Lauren is pressing charges for her, and she really loves Noah. She wants Noah to have an easier time.

Jeff follows Jill into the coffeehouse, and says he was surprised to learn that she isn't Katherine's daughter in the Restless Style article. Jill tells him the only reason he is talking to her is in case Gloria loses all of her money and ends up on food stamps! Jeff says he would never abandon his wife, but you never know what the future might hold. Jill says she deleted Jeff's number, so Jeff calls her to give her his number again.

At Newman, J.T. and Victoria kiss, but are interrupted by Neil, who is there for the board meeting. Victoria says she's sorry about Karen. Neil says he is, too. Victoria announces that she is going to chair the board meeting. Colleen and Nick arrive to hear the news. Nick confides in his sister that he needs to make a decision between Phyllis and Sharon and stick to it! Victor arrives and tells the board he's leaving the day-to-day operations of Newman to Victoria. Victoria begins to present her proposal, but Colleen says she has some questions and objections. She says she's made copies of her research for everyone!

Gloria comes looking for Victor at the Ranch and bypasses Estella who tells her Victor isn't home. Ashley asks Gloria why she's looking for Victor, and Gloria remembers her promise to keep quiet about the fact that Victor bought her Jabot shares. Ashley assumes Gloria is there to convince Victor to talk to her about dropping the lawsuit against Gloria. Ashley tells Gloria that she isn't a puppet that does whatever someone tells her and the suit won't be dropped. She says Gloria is going to pay for what she put Ashley's family through!

Phyllis comes to Newman and finds Nick. She asks him to go out for a cup of coffee, but he tells her he's made a decision. They go into a room to talk alone, and Nick tells her that he knows Sharon has to be a less part of their lives because he wants to work things out with her. He says he wants to move back in with her; she's never given up on him and he isn't going to give up on her. They kiss.

Jeff and Gloria meet up again at the GCAC bar. Nearby, Jill and Billy meet again. Billy tells her how Jack is using Delia as a prop in his publicity photo shoot. Neither she nor Billy is impressed. Billy says he wants to leave Jabot and has had other offers for work. Jill tells him to be careful - there are some people out there who would love to exploit a former Jabot CEO!

Neil asks to speak to Victor. He tells Victor he appreciates all the opportunities he's given him, but in the end, the Newman family will always be in control, as they should be. He says there's a glass ceiling for his job here and if he stays, he'd be settling. Victor asks if this is because Victoria chaired the board meeting, but Neil says this has been a long time coming. Initially, Victor says he won't accept Neil's resignation; they count on him at Newman a great deal, but eventually he accepts it, saying all good things must come to an end. Victor shakes Neil's hand, and Neil leaves.

Colleen and Victoria talk in the break room. Victoria says Colleen did good today, but in the future would she bring her concerns to Victoria before the board meeting so that she can do some research on how to solve the problem? She says she and Colleen aren't all that different. Victoria offers to call some people to get Colleen an art curator job, but Colleen wonders why Victoria didn't offer this sooner. Colleen says neither Victoria nor Victor is going to get her off the Board of Directors, and leaves.

Ashley is looking at the statue of Sabrina again when Abby comes up behind her and startles her. Abby says the statue is creepy.

Noah arrives at his mother's room, angry and ranting that everyone knows about her and it's affecting his life. Sharon says she's sorry, but Noah says she shouldn't have stolen things in the first place! Noah wants her to promise to stop the fighting between Nick and Phyllis.

Phyllis and Nick are leaving Newman when Detective Gil puts Phyllis under arrest for vandalizing Sharon's room and for breaking and entering! As Phyllis is taken away, she calls out Nick's name.
