You're Fired!

At the Kiriakis household, Philip and Brady confront Victor about his poor handling of the 'job situation'. Philip tells his father that he taught him that everything should be up front - he's a hypocrite for hiring Brady behind his back! Victor asks if he should have run it by him first so he could feel important. Philip sneers that only Victor should feel important. Victor says if he really feels that way about him, why work for him? Philip asks Victor if he wants him to quit. Victor admits that Brady could handle all his duties, but Brady pipes up that it's not going to happen! Victor expresses his disappointment that they are placing their egos before what is best for Titan! With that, Victor points at them, saying, "You're fired! Both of you!" Philip claps and says Victor's move was a stroke of genius. Victor sneers at Philip, saying, "You really think you're irreplaceable, don't you?" Philip says any idiot with a business degree could do the Tokyo deal! Brady agrees and they describe how they would set it up. Victor smirks, saying they've just proven they are a great team! He says with the two of them at the helm of Titan, the sky's the limit! Philip points out that they were just fired. Victor says he's a patient man - he'll wait for them to come back.

Santa's Surprise!

Brady and Philip face off in a room at the Kiriakis house. Philip isn't happy about Brady's appointment at Titan. Daniel walks into the room with Kate and she asks them what is going on. Philip says that Victor has arranged the seating at the table so as to try and appease him because he's not running the company anymore! Kate urges them to get along for Christmas, and they reluctantly agree. Just then, Victor walks in. They all sit down together and share a toast. Victor asks what happened to Daniel's hand, and if he can still operate. Daniel says he slammed his car door on it, and can't operate. Lucas takes a call and leaves the table. Philip and Brady agree that there should be no phones at the table. Victor says it bodes well for the family to see the two of them getting along. Victor then starts bashing Chloe as an 'unwelcome guest' - Kate defends her heartily. Lucas comes back in and says he needs to go, and Chloe whispers at him not to leave her there - he says he'll be back soon. Kate asks Daniel to sit beside Chloe to fill the gap!

Once Philip has left, Brady walks into the front hall with Victor and Kate. He says that Philip doesn't want him there, and neither does his ex-wife! He leaves. Out at the table, Chloe and Daniel discuss how everyone is wondering why they hate each other. He says he's going to leave, but Chloe urges him to stay and work through the awkwardness. She says she admires him for saving Kate's life and for being so kind. She then kisses his cheek!

Mistletoe Madness!

At the Kiriakis mansion, Brady visits Victor to discuss Victor’s job offer. Victor asks him what he’s decided and Brady tells Victor that what seems like a good situation might actually not be.

Victor tells an annoyed Philip that he needs someone levelheaded to watch his back in case he gets emotionally involved. Clearly unhappy about Victor’s news, Philip asks what would happen if he doesn’t make the announcement? Victor threatens that if he refuses to make the announcement, Brady won’t be the Vice CEO. Philip says he understands as Melanie walks in. Philip tells Victor to make the announcement himself and storms off.
