VICTORIA'S OFFICE / POLICE STATION
Vicki and Gary are in her office discussing the recent sales figures and the current ads running for Brash & Sassy. They discuss if they should return to the old ad campaign featuring Victoria. They then discuss the date they had last night and how much they enjoyed each other's company and agreed to take things slow and get to know each other better. Victor arrives with news about Ross as Nick walks in. He tells them that Ross will be in court this morning trying to reduce his bail so he can get out of jail. In the meantime, Paul will be trying to get a search warrant for Ross's apartment so they can search it before he can destroy any incriminating evidence.
They then discuss the sales figures and the ad campaign for Brash & Sassy. Victoria suggests they become more aggressive with the ads because "Glo by Jabot" is gaining on them. They should prepare for a counter attack. Victor disagrees saying he likes the ads that are currently running and they will leave them as they are for now. Victor gets up to leave telling them that he will let them know when he hears any news from Paul. Gary also leaves telling Vicki that he is going back to the office to work on new ads in the hopes that Vicki will be able to convince her father to change his mind. Later, Nick comes back to Vicki's office commenting how they've decided not to second-guess their father anymore. Nick also comments that Vicki and Gary seemed awfully chummy with each other. Vicki admits that they are friends...for now. She decides to call Gary but is surprised that he's not at his office. He told her when he left that he was going directly back to the office.

JABOT
Jack walks in the boardroom and greets Ashley. She tells him he looks terrible....he rushed out in a hurry yesterday. She wonders where he was. Jack tells her they were having some problems with their foreign distributors and went to take care of it personally. She's surprised....he tells her that nothing is more important to him than Jabot. She tells him she can think of one thing... bothering the father of her baby. He feigns ignorance but she tells him she knows he went to Paris to see Christian. Did he actually think Christian wouldn't call her and tell her that he was there. She asks him when will it stop....why won't he stay out of her life...it's none of his business. He counters that it is his business. He knows that she wants to have a happy home with a husband, and a baby. Ashley tells him that life isn't always perfect...sometimes you have to make compromises. However, she doesn't feel her baby is a compromise. The bottom line is she's always wanted a baby and he should respect her decision to do it alone. Jack admits that he was just trying to help....just in case she and Christian didn't really give their relationship a chance. She assures him that they did but it didn't work out. She tells him that she needs his support and his understanding. When the news gets out to the public, she's going to need both he and their dad more than ever. He agrees and tells her that nothing should get in the way of her happiness.....not even him, they hug as Jill walks in and sarcastically comments that they look warm and fuzzy....she thought this was a place of business. Jack comments that she should have knocked before entering. She counters that she was invited to a meeting in the boardroom. They settle down and get down to business. They discuss expansion of the "Glo" line and the fact that Brash & Sassy's sales figures are down. Jack feels they should take advantage of this. Jill counters that they should take a step back and reevaluate their situation. They are on the brink of defaulting on their loans and expansion is not a good idea at this time. Jack and Ashley don't agree. You have to spend money to make money. Jill again tells them that Jabot is being barely held together with a "safety-pin." Jack says he is tired of chasing his tail. Jabot will move ahead with the expansion.
RYAN & TRICIA'S / GINA'S
Ryan is on the phone with his secretary canceling his morning appointments.
Tricia walks out as he's getting off the phone. He hugs her and comments about what a great night they had last night. He tells her he has a surprise for her....he's taking the morning off so they can spend some more time together. She tells him she can't because she has a dentist appointment....one of her teeth is bothering her. He tells her she can make it up to him tonight. After Tricia leaves, she leans up against the door with a "relieved" look on her face. Meanwhile, at Gina's, Sharon is sitting at the bar looking at a menu when Gina walks up and comments that she's out early. She tells her that Nick took off early this morning and she decided to order some take out and bring him breakfast. In the background, Tricia walks in and sees Sharon at the bar. Gina tells Sharon to keep looking at the menu and she'll be right back. She tells Tricia to wait just a minute....she'll get a waiter to seat her. Sharon turns around and they stare daggers at each other. Back at Ryan & Tricia's, Megan walks in yelling for Tricia. Ryan walks out. She apologizes...she thought he'd be at work already. He tells her that he took the morning off to be with Trish but she had a dentist appointment. Megan comments that she had a dentist appointment two weeks ago. Megan asks Ryan how Tricia is. He comments that she's great, that their relationship is better than ever in all areas. Megan has a worried look on her face. At Gina's, Tricia walks over to Sharon and comments that she started to leave but if she didn't she wouldn't be able to tell Sharon what she thinks about her. She tells Sharon that she was callous and irresponsible for telling Megan all her "unfounded accusations." Does she realize how much she hurt Megan? She had no reason to tell Megan anything. Sharon counters that she's wrong and deep down inside, Tricia knows it. Tricia tells her that what she knows is that Sharon is a "despicable witch." She went out of her way to spread her poison out of vindictiveness and hate just because she didn't think Tony was right for her sister. Now she's trying to get back at her because she can't come to terms with Tony's death. The only thing she has done is hurt Megan, and made both she and Megan suffer. Sharon tells her that she may have hurt Megan but it pales in comparison to what she's done. Tricia tells her that she can't believe what she's accusing her of. She didn't realize Sharon was that kind of person. What she's doing is cruel and sick. Sharon tells Megan (patronizingly) that maybe she's right. Maybe she is wrong about what happened that night. Maybe it's time to bring in a third party who can be objective. Tricia asks her what she's talking about.
Sharon tells her that maybe she should go to the police, tell them everything she knows, and let them make an objective opinion. The camera cuts to Tricia and she has a stricken look on her face. Back at Ryan & Tricia's, Megan questions if Tricia is really all right especially with everything that's going on. It's hard to believe. Ryan asks her what she's talking about. Megan tells him about Sharon's accusation that Tricia "murdered" Tony.
MALCOLM'S / OLIVIA'S
Malcolm comes downstairs while Dru is sitting with Lily and asks how Lily is doing. She comments that she's doing okay in spite of her fever. Malcolm tells Dru that he's glad she was there last night to help with Lily. Dru comments that she's glad she decided to stay in Genoa City to be with Lily. Lily asks to go back to bed. Dru sends Lily upstairs and tells her that she will check in on her later. Malcolm comments that he knows it's not easy for Lily, and he knows it wouldn't be easy for Olivia either if she got the chicken pox as an adult; it's the last thing she needs. Dru again wonders what everyone is keeping from her. Malcolm tells her that no one is hiding anything from her. He only meant that Olivia is a doctor and she needs to be "well." Dru wonders if Olivia really has a cold or if it could be something else. Malcolm mentions her anemia and Dru comments that it could be a serious condition. Mal tells her that Neil promised him that he would let him know if it was serious. Dru's not so sure. Mal changes the subject asking Dru when she is going to let Olivia and Neil know that she didn't got out of town. Dru comments that she'll let them know eventually. She's sure Neil will call to check on Lily eventually and he'll find out then. Mal asks her if she's avoiding Neil. Every time he brings up Neil's name, she gets defensive... if she didn't have feelings for Neil, that wouldn't happen. Dru comments that he should be at work. Mal relents and leaves. As he walks out the door, Dru has an exasperated look on her face. Meanwhile at Olivia's, Neil brings Liv breakfast. He asks her how she slept and she tells him that she slept very well. They discuss how Lily is and wonder where Dru is now. Olivia tells Neil that she's glad Dru is gone....if she would have stayed any longer, she would have figured out that something is really wrong with her. Neil comments that he knows why she doesn't want Dru to know....she doesn't want it to interfere with Dru's career. Neil asks about her treatment and what comes next. Olivia tells him that she will stay on the drug therapy for six months and see what happens after that. He doesn't understand why she doesn't just go ahead with the bone marrow transplant. Olivia explains to Neil the steps involved in getting a bone marrow transplant. The first step is finding a match. Dru stands 1 in 4 chance of being a donor. If Dru is a match, she'll then have to go through heavy chemotherapy to kill off the old bone marrow so the new can work. This chemo will be worse than the first time; she will have no immune system. The procedure won't be a picnic for the donor either...it will take a long time to recover. She will only tell Dru as a last resort. Neil walks up and takes her hand and tells her he understands everything now. She thanks Neil for taking care of her. Neil's phone rings....it's Victor....he asks Neil to come to his office. Neil tells him he'll be there as soon as possible. After Neil leaves, Liv calls Malcolm and is surprised when Dru answers the phone. Dru tells her that she couldn't leave Lily. Liv asks her when her next photo shoot is. Dru comments that it sounds like she's anxious for her to leave. Liv tells her that it's not true. They say goodbye. Dru silently comments to herself that staying in town will give her a chance to check things out for herself and find out what's wrong with Olivia.
VICTOR'S OFFICE
Neil arrives at Victor's office. Victor confronts Neil for keeping Victoria's stalker situation from him. He comments that he owns this company and he does not want to be kept in the dark about anything. Neil tells him he understands. Victor comments that he and he alone knows that he is his right hand man and that he is moving closer to striking Jack Abbott down. He wants to make sure that Neil will tell him if anything gets in the way of that. He tells Neil that he has taken him into his confidence and into the inner workings of his business. He has to be sure where his loyalty lies. Neil assures Victor that his loyalty is with him. Neil asks Victor if he's aware of the recent sales figures. Victor tells him that he is and he wants everything to stay exactly like it is. His strategy is to let Jack believe that Brash & Sassy is failing. Jack will become over confident and expand at the wrong time, putting the company further in debt, and when he does... Jack will walk right into Victor's trap.
Victor and Jack continue to plot against each other and enlist the aide of their employees. Neil is commended by Victor for his hard work, then receives a phone call from Dru asking him to meet her. When the two get together at Gina's, Dru informs her ex-husband that she canceled the modeling job in Paris so that she could stay in Genoa City with Lily. She then asks him what exactly is going on between him and Olivia. At the same time, Olivia receives another visit from Reese. She tells her doctor that she is feeling fine and wants to go back to work. He is against is, but she explains that if she doesn't start working soon, Dru will get suspicious and figure out that something is wrong. After Reese leaves, Olivia panics when she coughs up some blood. Elsewhere, Nick and Victoria discuss her budding relationship with Gary. Victoria admits to her brother that she is very interested in Gary and Nick tells her that he thinks it's great. In the midst of their discussion, Nick receives a phone call from Sharon asking him to come meet her. When he arrives, he asks his wife what is wrong. Sharon tells him about her run-in with Megan and how she threatened to go to the police about what she knows. While Nick tells Sharon he'll support her in whatever decision she makes, Megan goes back to Ryan and tells him what happened. The two discuss Tricia's situation and the accusations Sharon is making against her. Ryan doesn't want to believe it, but he admits that Tricia's doctor told him that she needs help. As the two contemplate what to do, Tricia has more memories of her conversation with Tony at the hospital before he died. As she grows more and more upset, the phone rings. When she answers, she is surprised to hear her father on the other end. Over at the prison, Gary pays Ross a visit. Ross assures him that he is not Victoria's stalker and explains that he was just trying to help her out by making sure that Warton got put back in jail as fast as possible. When Ross asks him to pay his bail, Gary says he wants to help him, but he doesn't have that kind of money. Later, Ross gets news from his lawyer that a check to cover his bail has mysteriously appeared. Ross says he has no idea who his benefactor could be, but he's delighted to be getting out. At the same time, a mystery person is seen typing a new "fan" letter to Victoria! gl
As Christine begins to pack up her stuff at Legal Aide, she ponders whether or not she has made the right decision to leave and go into business with Michael. At the same time, Diane pays a visit to Michael only to find him packing up his office as well. Surprised, Diane asks him what's going on. Michael tells her about his plans to go into a partnership with Christine. Diane can't believe it and questions him on his motives. Michael informs his old flame that he is simply looking for redemption.....he's a changed man and he wants to prove it. Over at Gina's, Dru and Neil continue to discuss their situation. Dru tells Neil that she hasn't changed her mind about letting him spend time Lily and that she doesn't even know if and when she'll being leaving for another modeling job. She then tells him that she feels like an outsider in her own family and doesn't think it's fair. When she confronts Neil on Olivia's health, he dodges the question and she grows even more angry. Neil suggests to his ex-wife that Olivia may not want to let her in because she doesn't know how long she'll be around. Elsewhere, Ryan confronts Sharon and asks her if she is going to make good on her threats to go to the police about Tricia's involvement in Tony's death. He tells her that she better have some hard evidence or else drop the whole thing. As those two argue, Megan asks Tricia why she didn't tell Ryan herself about her run-in with Sharon. Tricia tries to convince her that Ryan's career could be jeopardized, but Megan doesn't believe her. In the meantime, after posting bail with the anonymous benefactor's money, Ross returns to his apartment only to be visited by the police. As Paul informs him that they have acquired a search warrant, the police begin to tear the place apart. When they come up empty handed, Paul is convinced that Ross had time to get rid of any incriminating evidence before they got there. In the meantime, Victoria's "fan" continues typing another letter. In it, he explains that he can't stand the thought of losing her and that he doesn't know what he'll do if he does. As he goes on, we finally get a glimpse of the true "fan."..it's Gary!
