Thursday, November 19 2009: I Love You, Son!

Jill is at Cane and Lily's house waiting for them when they get home from the hospital with Mac in tow. Cane tells her they are planning to have a surrogate baby. Jill is thrilled. Cane then asks if she's spoken to Phillip - he may be going back to Australia. Jill leaves quickly, and Cane brings food to Lily and Mac, saying they both need to keep their energy up. Cane tells Lily he's going to check on Jill. Once he's gone, Lily says she has something important to talk to Mac about - something she can't discuss with Cane. She wonders what will happen to her baby if she doesn't survive - will Mac take care of the child? Mac is stunned - signing up for nine months is one thing, but a lifetime commitment is another. Lily is worried she's made her uncomfortable, or caused her to reconsider being their surrogate. Mac says it's been a long day, and they'll talk tomorrow. She leaves.

As Nina tells Katherine that Phillip is going back to Australia in the bedroom upstairs, Phillip breaks the news to Chance in the living room. He tells him he will have to return indefinitely. As Phillip expresses regret, Kay appears and asks, "Then why do it?" Phillip says he has unfinished business to tend to. Chloe and Billy arrive, and everyone waits to hear Phillip's reasons. Phillip asks them to trust him. Nina wonders why he won't tell her. Jill walks in and says, "It's true, isn't it? You're leaving!"

Cane arrives at the Chancellor house just as Jill is calling Phillip 'selfish' for leaving again. Cane informs them that Phillip is not selfish - he's doing this for him - to save his life! Cane explains about the cattle rustlers, and how Phillip is hoping to keep them from coming after the family in Genoa City. Billy asks that Delia be put down for a nap. He then tells Cane to book a ticket and go home! Kay intervenes, saying, "That's enough!" Jill tells Billy to go cool off. Jill, Nina, and Kay turn back to Phillip and debate whether he should go or not. Nina still doesn't think he should leave his son, but Jill says she's very proud of him. Phillip says he's wanted to tell them how sorry he is - for all that could have been - and about not being honest twenty years ago. He laments the lost years.

Inside, Cane says his goodbyes to everyone and leaves. Katherine remarks on how close Cane and Phillip are. Jill says they owe him an apology too - they never really gave him what he needed when he was younger. Phillip assures them that he'll come back. Chance comes into the room, and the others leave them alone. Chance tells his father that he now knows that what he's doing is right. He calls Phillip 'Dad' and embraces him. Phillip exhales and says, "Oh! I love you, Son!" Both have tears in their eyes. Nina, Katherine, and Jill all say their final goodbyes too. Phillip walks out the front door with Nina and Chance. He tells Nina he loves her so much, and they share a hug and kiss. Chance asks his father to be careful. They take a photo together to hang in Phillip's bar. Nina goes back inside, and Kay and Jill wonder why Billy lit into Cane the way he did. Kay realizes Jill doesn't know about the Mac being the surrogate yet.

Tuesday, November 17 2009: The Sharks Are Circling!

Katherine sits in her living room thinking about Jill claiming to be involved with Paul. Jill walks in, and Kay confronts her about it, asking if she was trying to hide what she's really up to. Jill changes the subject to Chancellor, and the fact that word leaked out about them going public. Katherine admits the sharks are circling!

Jill comes into the coffee house and gets her check from Michael. She says the money will come in handy, and Gloria and Jeffrey start fishing for information about what she plans to do with her share. Jill takes off, and Gloria and Jeff continue to appeal to Michael about the low amount of money offered to them. Michael asks why they couldn't just once be happy with what they've got? Jeff says it's the principle. Michael tells them to get a good financial adviser and stay out of trouble. Kevin and Ryder appear at the table, and when Kevin learns that Glo is quitting, he tells Ryder he'll have more responsibility around there! Ryder grabs the coffee pot and heads out to the patio, where Phyllis and Lauren were just discussing if he could be behind the rat in the giftbox. Ryder asks how the wedding was, and the women exchange looks! Michael joins Phyllis and Lauren on the patio as Ryder goes about his business and Gloria heads out the door. Phyllis and Lauren ask Michael to find out where Ryder was at the time of the wedding. Phyllis leaves, and Lauren and Michael quiz Kevin on Ryder's whereabouts, causing Kevin to become angry.

Jill comes to Paul's door, where he greets her and says his daughter is there - would Jill like to announce their engagement? Heather leaves, and Paul asks Jill what she was thinking telling Kay that they're involved? He's not happy about it, but Jill says it's a perfect cover! Jill points out that 'dating' her would also give him access to the house. They discuss how believable it is for them to be involved - Paul notes that no matter what he says to that he can't win! Jill suggests they go have their first fake date at the Club.

Neil and Katherine sit down at a table in the Club and discuss how exited they are about the buzz surrounding the stock. Ashley passes Jack's table and refuses to join him, saying it's been a busy and productive day. Jill and Paul arrive and ask if they can join Katherine and Neil!
