Friday, May 09 2008
Michael and Brad's efforts virtually put an end to Adrian's dream. A proposal is made. The prince comes home.


Morning dawns on the Newman Ranch and Victor tells Sabrina he loves her. "I wake up happy every morning now!" She says she feels the same. She tells him she told the staff to start at 10:00 AM so she could have him all to herself. "I don't want to share you with anyone!" When she goes to get dressed, Victor gets the message from Adam saying he'd like to move into the Ranch! When Sabrina returns to the room, he asks her to sit down. "I asked my son Adam to move to the Ranch." Sabrina is stunned. Victor admits that he didn't mention it because he felt Adam would turn him down - but he has agreed to move in. Victor explains that Adam is his son and he would like to get to know him. "I hope it's alright with you?" Sabrina is quiet, but finally, she says that she and Adam are both grown-ups and whatever differences they have they deal with. Victor says he's glad she understands. She leaves, and Victor calls Adam to tell him to pack up his things and come on home!



At the Club, Nikki, David and Victoria have breakfast. They discuss business, but after David leaves, talk turns to Nikki and David's relationship. Victoria admits that she can see that David makes her mother happy. Nikki tells her there is no more hope for her and Victor getting back together. Vikki sighs. She says she thinks she can deal with Nikki and David being together, but Sabrina and Victor together may take quite a bit longer! David, meanwhile, heads to work, where he runs into Brad. Brad reminds him it's payment day for his first installment. David feverishly tells Brad not to worry he'll get his payment as agreed. Soon after, Brad makes another call to bookie, Andy, and reiterates the deal - $25,000 to make Chow bet on a sure loser! Michael arrives and just as he and Brad start to talk, Michael takes a call. He becomes irate and starts yelling at the caller that the book is full of libel! "Get back to me. Soon!" After he hangs up, Brad tells him he'll be in his office. "Buzz me when they call you back." Meanwhile, as Adrian and Colleen start their day, he suggests she turn down the work study in China and go on the book tour with him! She is surprised that he's asking, but agrees. Back at Jabot, Michael informs Brad that the publisher has downgraded the book to 'critical'. He tells Brad that Adrian is a new author, they likely won't go to bat for the book. Brad says, "I take back almost every bad thing I said about you!" Michael replies, "That's almost nice." Over at Adrian and Colleen's place, Adrian gets the call that his book has been put on hold, and the higher-ups at the publishing house won't take his calls! Colleen comes into the room and he tells her what happened. "This is because of your father! This is all your fault!" Colleen says that he'll write another book, but Adrian spits, "For who?" He explains that no publisher will touch him now! She leaves the apartment to go talk to her father. Adrian continues to try and get someone on the phone - now his agent won't return his calls either! Colleen, meanwhile, arrives at Brad's office and tells him Adrian knows. He says he is sorry but he had to act fast! As Adrian continues to be frustrated in his attempts to contact someone about the book, back at Jabot, Colleen tells her father that she was wrong to have encouraged Adrian in the first place, and he was right to have stopped it. She starts to cry though, telling Brad that she loves Adrian - and she knows she's going to lose him. Brad assures her if they are meant to be, this won't be the end for them. He embraces her, and she leaves. Colleen, however, arrives home and finds Adrian in a funk. He informs her that she has chosen her side, and it wasn't his. "Now, I've got to decide what to do about it." As Adrian gets off of the telephone with yet another door closed in his face, Colleen informs him she has decided to give him space. "I'm going to Shanghai!"



At the Penthouse, Amber and Daniel enjoy their first morning together. Amber joyfully says living together isn't as hard as she thought it would be! Daniel laughs and replies, "It's only been 14 hours!" He suggests that they have a little house meeting before work and decide who will do what. She says she doesn't think so, and he grabs a hold of her. "Yeah. Me either." They begin to make love.



At Crimson Lights, Michael arrives to find a frantic Kevin worrying about the book. Michael tells him of the latest developments and a relieved Kevin blurts, "This is great! Now Jana will never need to know!" Unfortunately, Jana is standing right behind him. Kevin makes up a story about trying to contact the manager of KC and the Sunshine Band, but an upset Jana says she knows he's lying to her! Kevin tells her the truth about the book, but reassures her that Michael is working to get it stopped. Michael steps forward and promises that he won't let her down! Later, Jana and Kevin are paid a visit by Daniel and Amber who joyfully break the news that they are officially living together! Jana suggests that they plan a double-date. Amber says that's a great idea! "How about tonight at the Penthouse? Daniel and I will cook!" Kevin winces at the cooking idea, but the girls have already decided! Daniel looks at Kevin, "Great!"



Later, at Jabot, as Nikki comes into the conference room, David again presses her to discuss the wedding. When she leaves, David's bookie, Andy, calls again and tempts him to place a bet on a baseball game. At about the same time, Adam arrives at the Ranch and is welcomed 'home' by Victor as Sabrina stands nearby. Adam jokes that he will need a floor plan! As Victor takes off for the Club, Sabrina agrees to show Adam around. Once Victor leaves, Adam laughs. "I bet you're thrilled about this!" Sabrina sternly says she is fine. She tells him directly that he doesn't know her, but she is proud of who she is, and she hopes one day he'll be able to say that about himself as well! Later, Sabrina heads down to the coffee house and encounters Victoria. She approaches her cautiously and they share a brief remembrance of their favorite cafe, before Sabrina asks if she can join her. Just then, Sabrina gets a call about a shipment at the gallery and says she'll have to go. Meanwhile, Victor runs into Nikki at the Club, who proposes a ceasefire. Victor asks, "Where do I sign?" Back at the Ranch, Adam encounters Stella, the head of all the employees. He asks how many staff there are and she gives him a run down. He asks about dry-cleaning and she tells him just to put it out in his room and it will be returned by that evening. He chuckles and thanks her. When she asks if there is anything else, he jokes, "No, just point me to my throne room, and give me my crown and scepter, I guess!" Stella laughs. Then he goes over and sits on the sofa and puts his feet up. "Ahh. Home." Meanwhile, Sabrina goes to the gallery and finds Victor waiting. He explains that he is awaiting another delivery. She is slightly confused at his mystery. Back at Crimson Lights, Michael sits chatting with Victoria. He tells her that Jabot is a great company, but it doesn't have her name on it! With that, he leaves, and Adam shows up. As they discuss Sabrina, and the fact that they both have issues with her, Adam lets it slip that he is living at the Ranch. Victoria is stunned! Meanwhile, at the Art Gallery, Victor looks deep into Sabrina's eyes and says in spite of the naysayers, he wants to be with her. He then asks her to marry him!
