When This Gala is Over, so are we.

Wednesday, July 23 2008
The Newmans fight, David gets what he needs, Chloe follows Cane home, Daniel and Amber go on "Loveline".


Chloe takes Amber to Crimson Lights. They complain about their private lives. Chloe probes about Cane and asks if he ever talked about kids. Amber is sure she has a crush on Cane. Chloe says it was only a one time thing. They're both sure he's too into Lily for it to matter. Chloe declares that she has to pee. She seems to be going an awful lot, Amber comments. "I know it's weird. I'm not even bulimic anymore," she says as she heads for the washroom. On the way, she bumps into Devon and asks if Lily has moved out. He says it's none of her business. Ana tells her Lily has moved in with Cane.



Amber catches up with Jana. They mope about work. Amber doesn't seem to like Chloe. She wonders if she should just quit and move back to LA. Amber can't face a future in Genoa City without Daniel: It would be torture. Jana suggests they consult the Ouija board. Amber thinks prescription drugs would help more. She suddenly gets an idea and pulls out her phone.



Chloe calls Susan to help track down the house that Cane bought. Susan hangs up. Meanwhile, Ana teases Devon about who his new roommate might be. He teases her about singing at the gala. She's scared to do it. He has an idea of how to get rid of her stage fright. As they head for the door, Chloe stops them to ask when Lily is moving out. A friend of hers is looking for a place, she says. Devon isn't interested in having a friend of hers anywhere near him.



Kevin arrives at Restless Style to check on Daniel. He says that he's pondering going to live with his dad in LA. They have a beer. Daniel can't stand the thought of Amber with anyone else. They turn on "Loveline" and listen in, discovering that Amber is on the line. She talks about her problems with Daniel and how lame he is being. Daniel gets on the phone to defend himself. They go live and begin bickering. It confuses the hosts of the show. "Do either of you guys do drugs?" they ask. "Not anymore," Amber says. Daniel starts to rant at Amber and she rants back until Dr. Drew says they have serious pathologies and should not get back together. As the doctor tears into them, Daniel and Amber begin defending each other. "Thanks for wasting our time you screwballs," the host says, cutting them off. Amber and Daniel simultaneously decide to move to LA.



Cane carries Lily over the threshold of his new house. He spins her around and they kiss before he lets her down. He pulls of his shirt and pulls her into the bedroom, even if they don't have a mattress yet. Afterwards, they start unpacking their boxes. He discovers a gift Daniel gave her for their wedding. He asks her if she has good memories. "Some... but the good memories were erased by the awful way it ended," she says. She sits on his lap and asks him if things will end the same for them. He promises that nothing will change what they have, not Amber or Daniel or crazy Chloe: They are all out of their lives. He asks her to get his tape measure. As she runs off, he takes out the ring. Outside, Chloe has followed the movers to Cane's house and peers through the door.



The gala preparations are being finalized in the ballroom. David tries to keep up appearances but Nikki clearly doesn't want to talk. "When this gala is over, so are we," she reminds him. Only a few feet away, Victor tells Sabrina that Nick has decided to leave even though he offered him the chance to stay. She drifts off to take care of something as Victoria arrives. She asks her father about kicking her brother and his family out. He says he was furious but had a change of mind. He asks her to reason with his son for him. She refuses. "I've had enough disrespect from my children for one day," he says. Victoria starts lashing out at her father and Sabrina. He lays all of the blame on her. Nikki sticks her head in. "For the better part of your children's lives you have been a horrible father," Nikki snipes. As they throw blame around the room, Katherine arrives and tries to calm them all.



Victor confronts Nikki for pushing his company out of sponsoring this event. He lays into her for criticizing his parenting skills and brings up all of her past mistakes. After he storms off, Victoria hurries to her mother's side. She thinks Victor is out of control. "He's the least of my problems right now," Nikki says. "When the gala is over, I'm leaving David," she blurts out. She tells her that David's name isn't David. There have been too many lies and she has to leave him now. She just wants to avoid bad press right now to shield the gala. Nikki is afraid of hearing Victor's "I told you so", especially when he was right. She begs her daughter to keep this a secret for one more day.



David is outside trying desperately to get a hold of something before it's too late. Walter pops up and reminds him that they need him to take care of something. David asks him to get someone else. They argue but Walter won't argue anymore: David's already proven his skill with the killing of Ji Min. David asks him to remind the boss that he's shown him loyalty over the years and now he needs an out. David walks off and Walter calls his boss to say that David's having cold feet and they better do something about him.



Back inside, Katherine sits with Sabrina and worries that all of the hostility may be bad for the baby. Sabrina says that she and the baby are fine. Victor approaches and the women encourage him to take Sabrina away for a little vacation. He agrees to that but has a "loose end" to tie up.



Nikki and David are cornered by a photographer. They act like a married couple until he walks off. Katherine asks her what's wrong. "After the gala," Nikki says. David has walked outside. He gets a call that his stuff is ready and hurries off.



Sabrina and Victoria pose for a photographer. Sabrina tries to be friendly. Victoria tells her the "supersweet" act is wearing thin. Sabrina defends herself, but Victoria says they will never be friends again. "You are sleeping in my father's bed having secured my fortune," she snipes, accusing her of trying to run off with all Victor's money. Sabrina is sick of defending herself and being humiliated. "You're just a spoiled little brat that's so obsessed with what she doesn't have that she can't see what she does have," she cries. After the gala is over, she never wants to deal with her again. She storms out.



Ana and Devon arrive. He shows her around and tells her everything will be okay. She tells him to sing. He sings for her and she drags him over to Katherine and the others to announce that they will be doing a duet. They run off happily and Katherine demands that Victoria and Sabrina find a way to get along until this is over.


Outside, David picks up his liquid morphine from a man in a car and then returns. He tells Nikki that they need to keep up appearances and should go home together after the event.


At the club, Paul continues amassing information on David's mob connections. He tracks down a mob informant and discovers that there is a good chance that David has been a killer for the mob. Victor arrives and informs them that he is about to leave the country. He just needs to know that David isn't a threat. They tell him that David has connections to the mob and Nikki could be in more danger than they ever imagined. They explain that Walter has a ring of deep cover assassins who can kill people without anyone knowing. Victor suggests they remove David. Paul worries that trying to do so could only make him more of a threat; any attempt to save Nikki is likely to result in her death.



Next on The Young and the Restless:

David makes sure that Nikki's insurance policy has been activated.

Chloe announces to Lily and Cane that she is pregnant.

Walter crashes the party.

Based on the comments I have been reading over the last few weeks, Chloe has been doing an outstanding job as a villain. Despite what many of you may think, this buzz will ensure she is kept around for a long time. However, I think that her role on the show is fairly narrow and when exhausted, will be moved to some other place for some other reason. I don't like her either, but enjoy the chaos while it reigns!

Is Victor prepapring for a second career as a Drive-Through Attendant as a fast-food restaurant? He sounds like that garbled speech you get when ordering a burger & fries. I never know if Victor is conducting business, critisizing one of his kids, or asking someone if they want fries with that.

Good point on Paul's office, or the lack thereof. As a P.I., you would need to keep information in hard copy as well as have a secure area to keep stuff. Last time I looked, that side of Crimson Lights didn't have either a filing cabinet or a safe. I tried to do work at our local coffee shop but there wan't enough privacy and the girls kept me distracted!

A friend of mine who I go to Yoga with (yes, I'm a guy and I do yoga...big deal!) asked me if there was any of the characters, if they were real, that I would date. For Amber, Jana, Phyllis, Chloe, Lily, Victoria, and Sabrina, I would say NO. For Skye, Heather, Colleen, Karen, and Lauren, I would say YES. For Sharon, a MAYBE. Yeah, I'm a little crazy, so so is my pass-time of skydiving.

This is the same way Phyliss got Danny from Christine. The s/l are the same they just tweak them.

I just had a twist to the Chloe pregnancy story line, but then realized they already did that one. Chloe will say she is pregnant eventually miscarry, but still continue to act like she is pregnant she will leave and come back with a baby that she kidnap from someone and try to pass it off as Cane's. But they did this with Lauren/Sheila.

In thinking about Victor and his money and those who think it's theirs - by his providing "the children" with every little thing their little hearts desire, he certainly hasn't done them any favors. He and Nikki have prevented them from doing anything but what they're now doing and that is to still depend on him for their standard of living. Having them depending on him for EVERYTHING has certainly stroked his massive ego and he seen to it over the years that they are unable to do anything for themselves in the world. I have to hand it to Silver Spoon for trying, first with the coffee houses and then with the magazine, but Victator's ego would never allow them to succeed at anything but live off of him so he can be in control. Victoria should have stayed in whatever foreign country she had been in. Silver Spoon isn't the brightest bulb in the box since he has stayed in GC and has always put himself in positions of where he is involved with those (Jack and Victor) who will feed off of his vulnerability. It looked to me as though the tramp was going to have a meltdown over the fact that they would actually have to provide their own housing at their own expense. Aw-w-w. Although Nicholas will try again to be independent, it "ain't gonna happen". "You got that??"

I definitely agree with you all about Chloe. It's time for her character to finish up and pack her bags. It took me a while to get used to Cane a Lily but now I love them together. I really hope they don't break them up. How stupid can Chloe be anyways, clearly Cane is going to ask for a paternity test and it'll prove Cane is not the father. As for JT, I totally feel the same way. It's time for his character to take centre stage again. I am soooo happy about the way Sabrina told of Victoria, she deserved it. All Victoria cares about is the money. At least Nick sees it as an opportunity to get out from under his fathers shadow.

whoever,walter works for has put out contract on victor newman.only it going to be sabrina and the new baby that will be killed.

I've not seen today's show yet but in reading the updates, it seems that Nikki couldn't let an opportunity pass by to again get into Victator's face about "the children". While on one hand, she whines about wanting to be independent of him but she is as dysfunctional as, I hate to say it, "the children". She uses every chance she can to keep in contact with him and they are her only remaining link.

Looks like David is really about to show his true colors. Getting an insurance policy on your wife and she dies. That has been done many times. Chloe, Chloe, her name should be stalker because that what she is. Victoria got some nerve i mean they want to be independent but as soon as Victor gives them what they need. She gets an attitude. She need a reality check quickly.

I haven't watched yet, but I have to say this: You know you suck as a person when Amber don't even like you. You ain't even enough for a evil lying schemer like Amber to want to be in cahoots with you! And for all you who are shocked by Liz Taylor Jr.....What do you expect from an idiot who hid in the closet and listened to her boyfriend have sex with Nina, then asked Nina to show her how to have an orgasm(remember Nina's infamous orgasm exhibition in the diner?), know her mom is bangin Cole, but still sneaks around and whips enough "young cookie" on him to steal him away from Pole Cat,cried so much till she never had to wash her face, and last but not least, always hated Shareabed and said to her that she wasn't good enough to be a Newman or have Newman money! So go figure this Dizzy >>>>>out! I just wish Sabrina serve her a Whoooop..A$$$$ Sandwich before she dies Friday!

I also wondered whatever happened to his office as well as his assistant, Lynne. She kind of disapeared way back when and t he never gave an explanation to Maggie's leave of abscense either. Paul needs to open up a new office, hire an assistant and find a love life.
