Lit Up Like a Christmas Tree!

Friday, November 07 2008
Some Genoa City residents are now visiting Paris, Katherine is out in a storm with Marge, and Amber is suspicious of Kevin's behavior!


Jack wanders around the Abbott living room, leaving Sharon a voicemail message. He cuts it short as the doorbell rings. Adam comes inside saying, "Heather called. The FBI wants to interview me about the diary!" Jack tries to reassure his panicking sidekick, saying that if he stays calm, they can't prove anything! He reiterates that Adam should say that he found the diary, and that Jack helped him get it published. Jack then quizzes Adam on how he will answer detailed questions. They establish that Adam will say he found the diary at the Ranch, in the garbage! Jack continues to pepper Adam with questions, cross-examination style. Adam answers admirably and Jack pats him on the back. He reminds him that the diary has been authenticated, and Adam says if it turns out the authorities think it's forged - he's as much in the dark as anyone!



In France, Sharon gets a call on her cellphone from Nick, who is wondering about Noah. Sharon tells him that she just got in and Noah is busy with tour groups. Nick laughs and says he's still there too, but there's been no word on his father. They agree to meet and take Noah for some sight-seeing the next day. Nick mentions that he is on the left bank, and Sharon says she is too. They decided to have coffee. When she spots Nick outside the cafe, Sharon runs to meet him. They sit down and she tells him he doesn't look so good. He says he is exhausted, and worries that he may not be able to find his father.



Behind the counter at Crimson Lights, Kevin tries again to reach Katherine about the money. He reaches Marge, who has Katherine's phone, and who is drunk in a bar. She mumbles a bunch of gibberish and hangs up on him as he begs her not to!



Inside Jimmy's Bar, Jeffrey sits silently watching as Marge takes the phone call, then struggles into her coat as a horn honks outside. She leaves, getting into the car with Katherine, who chastises her, saying, "You were supposed to be home packing, Marge." Marge tells her she is a good friend, and Kay says she can thank her by staying sober! Katherine says her family will be trying to reach her and asks if Marge still has her cellphone. Marge has passed out in the passenger seat and doesn't answer, but the cellphone is back on the bar where she left it! They arrive at Murphy's place and it becomes evident that Marge does not have the phone. She remembers leaving it on the bar and suggests that they stop to get it on the way to rehab. Katherine tells her it's not important. Kay then calls home to say she's alright. Suddenly she realizes that the money she withdrew to pay for the rehab is missing. Marge tells her some guy named Kevin kept calling her cellphone saying something about money. Katherine is relieved! Marge, meanwhile, has cleaned herself up and is ready to go. Katherine gives her the scarf she is wearing to put around her neck for luck. They go out the door together for the 'most important journey' of Marge's life.



Jill and Nikki fret and worry as they can't get Katherine on her cellphone. Jill picks up the phone in the Chancellor living room, saying, "I'm calling the police and reporting her missing!" Nikki looks on with seeming disapproval, then reaches to take the phone away, telling her not to embarrass her mother, who could walk through the door at any moment. Nikki says they need to check everywhere first. Esther offers to stay at the house while they go looking. Jill spits that if anything happens to her mother, it will be on Nikki's head! Nikki heads out to search the grounds and returns without a clue. Just then, Katherine calls from Murphy's house. She explains that she is helping a friend and doesn't want to say where she is - she asks Nikki to tell Jill that she will take the tests at the doctor's office tomorrow. Nikki hangs up and tells Esther that she sounds fine!



Jeffrey arrives to meet Gloria at Crimson Lights. He tells her that it's a good time to get the stocks from Katherine - he just saw her and she's lit up like a Christmas tree! He tells her to call Katherine and get her over there. Inside, Kevin continues to leave messages on Katherine's phone about the money. Amber has come in and overhears. She asks him to explain, but he says, "Butt out, blonde one!" Jill strides past and approaches Jeff and Gloria, saying, "Have you seen Mrs. Chancellor?" Amber turns to Daniel and says that something is going down! Outside, Jill is stunned when Gloria says that Jeffrey just saw Katherine drinking in a bar! Nikki phones Jill's cellphone just then, saying that Katherine is fine, but Jill says it's not true. "Meet me at Jimmy's bar!" Inside, Kevin tells Daniel to calm Amber down, but Amber won't be put off - she insists that Kevin was saying something about Mrs. C! Just then, the phone rings. Kevin answers and it's Katherine. He asks why she hung up on him, but she doesn't answer - just thanks him for holding on to her money. Amber nudges Daniel to listen in. After the call, Kevin dons his coat and asks Daniel and Amber to watch the coffeehouse while he goes to Katherine's house. They notice he's hiding something under that coat, and are both more suspicious than ever!



Ashley strides through the streets of Paris, heading for Notre Dame, where she has a hunch that Victor might be found. As she consults the prayer card that Victor dropped earlier, she becomes more convinced that he might be at Notre Dame. Looking up at the church, she tearfully prays that Victor be healed and that he be brought back to her. Suddenly she turns - Victor is standing and watching her!



On the school trip, Noah tells Eden that all the touring so far has been lame! Eden agrees as they make fun of the group they are with. Eden confides in Noah that her mother was born in Paris. She then tells him that she is dead. She says she really wants to feel the city, and walk where she walked. She tells him about the cemetery where Jim Morrison and Edith Piaf are buried. Noah responds that maybe his mother will take them there tomorrow. Eden says, "You want to bring your mom?!" She laughs mockingly and gets up and walks away. She then returns to tell him that she is blowing off the rest of the tour to see the real Paris, asking, "Wanna' come?"



Nikki and Esther arrive at Jimmy's bar where they meet Jill, Jeffrey, and Gloria. Nikki protests that it wasn't Katherine in the bar - she spoke to her on the phone and she was perfectly sober! Esther chimes in that she knows the signs and Kay is not drinking again! Jeffrey pipes up and says if they don't believe him, he'll prove it. They turn to the bartender, who has just picked up Katherine's vibrating cellphone, it's Amber, and he blurts, "Stop calling, she's gone!" Jeffrey holds out a photo of Kay and asks if he recognizes her. The bartender confirms that she's been in regularly. They are all flabbergasted - even more so when the bartender hands them her cellphone, and Nikki realizes that it's really hers!



John shows up in the Abbott Mansion after Adam leaves and asks his son if it was all worth losing Sharon. Jack protests that they are working things out. John replies dubiously, "Really? From 4000 miles apart?"



Phyllis arrives in Paris and lets herself in to Nick's hotel room. She looks around and calls out, smiling at the thought of surprising him.



Outside the Chancellor Mansion, Kevin knocks at the door in the pouring rain, but gets no response. Suddenly he decides that he can't return the money and leaves. In the same pouring rain, Katherine and Marge drive toward the house to get the money. Suddenly they swerve off of the road!



Next on The Young and the Restless:

Phyllis leaves Nick a note in his hotel room which reads, "Surprise! I'm here! Meet me at the Pyramid de Louvre!"

Sharon tells Nick she has always wanted to see Paris, and he says they'll do just that, then!

Victor speaks to Ashley!

Good Morning!

Adam runs to Jack like a little (word that we can't say on here) LOL!!! Okay, I'll say lapdog. He runs to me all damsel in distress "help me help me" - HOW PATHETIC!

Nick and Sharon as we all know, are playing with fire!!

Dang, you can here a single car horn and know who it is from inside from Jimmy's bar? And come to think of it...Katherine never thought for one second that someone from GC might see Marge and think it was her? I mean she was worried about people knowing she paid for rehab...what about someone seeing her (double) in a bar?

Jill is still cutting Nikki off at the knees. What, all of a sudden Nikki is Katherine's keeper?

Kevin, Amber, Daniel, blah blah blah.

Victor and Ashley - watch out. Sparks are going to rekindle...

Noah's little butt came back from camp with a bad case of the teens!!! And Eden is just a little ring leader. I think he is going to fall for her HARD and there's going to be trouble down the line!

Okay - it's looking bad for Katherine...the bartender, the phone...eyewitnesses...I'm so glad WE know the truth! But it wont matter!!!

Jack and John, blah blah blah

Phyliss...my goodness...it's getting good!

What do they mean "Kevin decides he can't return the money"??? But he already told Katherine he had it. So what, he tripped and it all blew away in the storm?

Great Cliffhanger this week!!

what is with sharon?

i know it just makes sense for her and nick to at least talk to their son while he's in paris and so are they. but why in the world are they the ones taking him sight seeing when he's there with his school for the same purpose? he could have just gone with them then.

and what's with the set? i thought they were actaully shooting in paris? i don't know if it's just the pictures, but it looks like they're in front of a green screen.

Good morning, everyone. Logging on @ my regular time has become kind of challenging, but I just happened to be up working on stuff (3AM here), and I'm going to seize the day... before it even begins...

I'm just scratching my head over the whole bag of money thing. First of all, who pays a rehab center in CASH? Second, why would ANYONE like Katherine Chancellor be strolling around with tens of thousands of dollars in cash?! The writers didn't have to go to these extremes to get Katherine and Marge in a car together and crash the car.

OK, I'm on a roll now. I am TOTALLY echoing the people who were scratching their heads over the whole cell-at-the-bar thing! HELLO! Get a TracFone or something! And maybe I've got some kind of amnesia or something... but how did Katherine and Marge reestablish contact to begin with? Did Marge call Kay? Did Kay call Marge? Were there any other phone calls between Kay and Marge that didn't involve Kay's phone in Marge's hands?

The update provides sooooo many lead-ins as to where this is all going. Katherine gives Marge her scarf for luck, so of COURSE people will then think that the person wearing the scarf if Katherine. Jill's threatening people with the "if anything happens, it's on YOUR head" bit. And realllly convenient that the bartender confirms that someone looking like Kay was there... but FAILS to note that TWO ladies that look like Kay were there!

Did everyone in GC really forget that quickly that Marge existed? You'd think that someone would have put two and two together by now. Come ON already, Esther! She was part of the whole Marge-impersonating-Kay thing in the first place. She may play the part of the resident dingbat, but this would be the time for the lightbulb to go off over her head!

This SL could have been classified as "suspenseful", but I think it's leapfrogged suspense and it's headed for "absurd". Congratulations, writers... you're succeeding in blowing another wonderful opportunity with your viewers. I'm so glad I only read the updates now.

Can't wait to read the Restless Rant for this week. I'll be out on the road all day today, but I'll try to catch it later tonight or this weekend. For now, I better try getting SOME kind of sleep! Ciao, all!

And THANK YOU Jezebel for pointing out that Noah is in Paris on a SCHOOL field trip - WHY would his parents take him out on their own?!?! Are other parent chaperones doing the same thing with THEIR kids? They're trying so bloody hard to put Sharon and Nick in proximity to one another - there's a point where that stops being a decent SL and starts being a total farce. We've entered farce territory! Go Phyllis! Although...


* * * * SPOILER ALERT! * * * *

According to the message boards, Sharon and Nick DO wind up kissing, but Nick pulls back and remembers himself to be happily betrothed. Phyl does witness the kiss, and conveniently misses ANY of the "oh, that was a mistake" moment that might ensue. Instead, Phyl just keeps her trap shut for now. She winds up back in GC without letting on to Nick that she even went to Paris!

Personally, I love Phyllis and Nick together, and I'd much prefer Brad as Sharon's rebound guy. And I think it's smart for Phyl to just not say a dang thing about it now and go back to GC. Let any fireworks erupt stateside.

Another wasted effort by the writers. Putting Nick and Sharon together in Paris was too forced - their reasons for being there had nothing to do with the other person. And... I thought Sharon was CHAPERONING this trip! Why isn't she in Noah's touring group?!? If Nick wanted to puppy-dog Sharon through Paris, he'd better be puppy-dogging after his son, too!

AAAUGH. OK. I'm going to bed now. I've got a minimum of 9 hours in the car when I wake up. But in order to wake up, I need to go to BED!

.....spoler talk .... what woman on eath would not say or do something if they walk up on their husband or wife kissing i know if i walk up on mine kissing his ex i would snap!!!!!! and with this being Phillis and in Parris that is like her giving them her blessing!!!!!!

Posted by Deneb at Friday, November 07 2008 03:21 AM

I personally have been glued to every episode to watch the moments between Nick and Sharon. I think they are the next "Nikki & Victor" - deeply in love, but manage to let "things" get in between them.

I am hoping that soon Nick will "remember" that he is really not Summer's father. If I recall correctly, he is the only one who knew the actual results and claimed Summer as his because he was just coming off of the loss of Cassie, and Sharon had lost their baby, so having another "baby" was soothing to him - even if it is really Jack's baby.

And it would be poetic justice to watch Phyllis suffer through her husband gravitating to another woman - just like he did with her when he was married to Sharon!! Plus, it makes the "bad" Phyllis come out - which is so much more fun than the "good" Phyllis.

Posted by WendyNelson at Friday, November 07 2008 03:25 AM

Sharon is NOT chaparoning the trip. She chose to go to Paris on her own, with the plan to sneak in a bit of mommy son time with Noah while she took some time to "think about thing" regarding Jack.

If Kevin decided not to give back the money, it still could happen. He called Kathrine and Marge answers clueless about the money. Kevin assumed it was a "senior moment".

Marge called Kathrine depressed in a bar and begged her to come down and see her as she was her only friend.

(Remember all this is a soap opera NOT real life. In real life we don't have drunken doubles of ourselves, who once coinspired to kidnap us and steal all our money, calling us up after a decade or so from a bar begging for our help to become sober. Nor do we accidentally run into our ex spouse in Europe. Ok it does it your stalking them).

SPOILER (sort of, only if you dont know this already)
I hate being the last to know something. So I am going to just post this out hoping I am not the last.
Katherine dies in the crash with Marge. Or does she????? One of them walks away with amesia and happens to become lost. Another great story line in the making. I love this show

Now about Chloe. Billy eventually finds out the truth, and decides that in spite of Cain he is going to raise his child not his 1/2 brother, who is living life. (speculation here... doesnt' it seem that every winter that there's a pregnancy involved the mom slips on ice and goes into preterm labour? Does baby and or mom make it????? )

o.k. Everyone has forgotten I guess about Marge? Since there is going to be an accident...You know it will be Marge who dies & she is wearing Katherines Scarf around her neck that she gave her for good luck remember? Then the other will have amnesia & will forget Kevin has the money! he will keep the money! YES & Amber will know it is Ms. C but since she is presumed dead...then the secret will remain.(No one will hear his message on her cell phone that he left I am sure? dugh) This deal with Sharon & Nick in Paris? Didn't anyone see the clip on hear showing Phyliss screaming??? Kinda made you think she walked in on something (which I was hopeing) NO woman would say nothing about seeing her Hubby kissing his X & you would fly all the way to Paris & back keeping that secret? NOT going to happen guys! ANY woman would kick butt right then & there or possibly even wait in the Hotel Room with a GUN maybe but fly home & keep quiet? Hell-o!!!!! Now, I did not know that Nick wasn't the Father & that he knew this also?? This deffinately needs to come out & NOW...Phyliss was much more exciting showing her true colors! Sharon LEAVE Jackie & leave him to chat with his Ghost Dad...He has lost his mind I think anyway! Victor & Ashly??? Well, maybe sleeping with Ashly will comfort the Old Guy! Remember it is a Soap guys.. maybe the writers will have him having amnesia too & he can forget he even knew Sabrina! ha My Gosh Victor...get a grip on it! Get Over it! Life goes on or haven't you noticed. Giving your past History, you love em & leave em..she was just another notch in the Old guys Belt right! Come on Now!! A spark between Neil & Tyra may bring the show back to excitement then bring DRU back. We all Loved Dru & her personality!! Yeah Gloworm & Jeff get on with it & River go back to the Ashram...Bye Bye Hate that s/line. Where did someone read that billy knows it is his child? I think he does anyway & it appears that he & Lilly will get it on & get together from watching yesterday. I actually liked the little chatting on the internet they did & it appeared like Billy does have a heart & could be a good person. I think the woman in his life he was talking about was his sister from the GloKids? I forgot her name though...he loved her I think & that was who he was talking about. Again..didn't anyone see the episode with Cane & Lilly talking & he told her he loved her & she could change things & she looked into his eyes & said maybe she would....from that I got that she was going to see him & the heck with chloe liar b---h

IMO, Nikki is absolutely the best at curling her lip in disdain that I've ever seen. Watch closely some time. Today's show hasn't come on here yet but she just might do it again today when Jill is hissing and fitting or if she's upset about Katherine's decisions.
