Young and Restless Recaps
Y&R Week of February 16, 2009
Monday
At Crimson Lights, Olivia and Ashley caught up. Ashley admitted to being disappointed that she lost her CEO position at Jabot to Billy. Meanwhile at Newman Enterprises, Neil questioned Victor about Gloria's mystery buyer, not realizing that it was Victor himself. Victor explained that he wanted Ashley to take Brad's vacant seat on the Newman board. After, Ashley met up with Victor at his office and was amused when he presented her with an office chair for Valentine's Day — complete with a big red bow on it! Victor explained that it was symbolic of his offer for her to take Brad's seat. Ashley agreed to think about it. She then showed him a gift she had made up for Abby: it was a locket with photos of Victor and Brad in it. Vic didn't really like it, but understood that Abby would appreciate it. They started to kiss ... and were interrupted by Nikki, who'd returned to town after leaving to care for her ill sister.
At the Abbott cabin, Lily was furious with Billy and Chloe for lying to her and Cane about Billy being the father of Chloe's baby. But there was no time to argue; just then, Chloe went into labor! Chloe was aghast at the idea of giving birth in the cabin, but the roads were too snowed over for them to drive to a hospital. Billy went to see the park ranger to inform him of the emergency, but the ranger — answering as if he didn't have a care in the world — told them that it sounded as if Chloe was early enough in labor that she could "hold" the birth until the next day when the roads would be cleared. As the men talked, Chloe and Lily argued in the cabin, each calling the other woman "desperate" for how she handled her love life. Lily accused Chloe of keeping her and Cane apart.
Meantime, Cane made his way up to the cabin so he could find Lily. However, when he stopped by the ranger's office, he, too, was informed that the roads were blocked. Instead, a determined Cane trudged through the snow on foot. Inside the cabin, a frantic Chloe paced in an effort to ease the pain, which was mainly in her back. The contractions kept coming and it became obvious that the baby was not going to wait. Lily called Olivia for help and instructed Billy on how to deliver the child; unfortunately the baby had to be turned around. Billy freaked out, but did what Liv told him to do (via Lily), but Chloe was having a difficult time pushing out the baby. Billy reminded Chloe that she's the type of woman who goes after things and promised that he'd make sure she and her baby were safe. Chloe finally managed to give birth to her daughter ... just as Cane arrived at the cabin. Billy was visibly pained as Cane took the little girl from him, cooing about his baby.
At the coffeehouse, Jill gloated to Amber, Daniel, Kevin and Jana about Katherine's DNA test coming back negative. Soon Murphy arrived and told them that Kay was missing. He and Amber sensed that something was wrong, but Jill figured that the "imposter" just skipped town — and asked the cops to find
her. Amber was horrified that Jill would do this to her own mother. Meanwhile, Clint tied Kay to a chair in a hotel room and then gagged her. When he left to "get bullets," he had a nurse care for his prisoner. Said "nurse" then appeared, brandishing a large knife. "I'm Annie!" she announced. She then went on about how she loves to knit to relax (keeping
her knife right near her) as a gagged Kay struggled to speak. Finally, Annie removed the gag and Kay complained that she was hungry. "No problem!" Annie chirped. She placed a food item on the table and eagerly chopped it in half with her knife. Kay flinched.... Clint implored Roger to marry Esther as soon as possible. Roger suggested to an eager Esther that they wed right then on Valentine's Day. Later, he and Clint got news of Kay not being Kay, based on the DNA test. Clint taunted "Margie" about being a phony.
Tuesday
At the Newman manse, Victor and Ashley made small talk with the recently returned Nikki. They gave her an update on Noah and they discussed Brad's devastating passing. Nikki was clearly uncomfortable at seeing Vic and Ash celebrating Valentine's Day. Vic revealed that he'd offered Ashley a seat on the Newman Enterprises board of directors. Nik feigned happiness for her rival and departed. "Awkward!" Ash noted and then chided Victor for telling Nik the news too soon because it's not a done deal. She noted that she's flattered, but needs to discuss the offer with Jack before she can accept the Newman seat.
Clint and Annie continued to hold Kay hostage. Clint removed her gag and, calling her Marge, noted how well she's imitating Kay. Kay promised him that she's telling the truth about her identity and surmised that the DNA test results prove that someone really doesn't want her to be Katherine Chancellor. Later, Annie told Clint she drugged Marge and advised him to get rid of her, adding that she's just a poor waitress and not worth a dime. Clint explained that they need to keep their look-alike around until after Roger marries Esther so they can cash in on the Chancellor ransom for Kay. "I got screwed out of that fortune once; it's not going to happen again!" he added. Later, Kay woke up and tried to strike a deal with Annie, adding that she'd pay up big time if Annie helped her escape. Annie couldn't be swayed by the ploy and fibbed to Clint who reminded Kay, "The minute I don't need you, you're gone." Kay tried to plead her case again, then remembered kneeing Clint in the groin years ago before he was carted off to jail. Clint was taken aback and wondered how "Marge" knew that had happened.
Meanwhile, Jill noted to Paul that Marge deserves the trap she set for herself after denying the DNA testing for so long. Then she said she's not planning to prosecute her for fraud, explaining, "How am I supposed to heal if I have to keep confronting that woman? I don't think it's worth it. I just have to pray that that Marge creature will get hers." Then Paul
explained that he still hasn't found anything on shady Roger. Jill was miffed, saying she hoped the DNA test would keep them from getting hitched. She called Cane to tell him the news of the DNA test, but no one answered. She wondered where everyone, including Chloe and Billy, had disappeared to.
At the Abbott cabin, Chloe woke up but was obviously in shock. Cane introduced her to her child. When an emotional Cane inquired what Chloe was doing at the cabin, Chloe said she was cold. Cane passed the newborn off to Lily so he could help Billy fix the generator. Chloe, meanwhile, passed out. Outside, Cane confronted Billy about why both of them were secretly headed to the cabin. Lily called them back inside and pointed out that Chloe's bleeding hasn't stopped. Everyone worried about Chloe's hemorrhaging. Cane implored Chloe to stay strong and told her that everything would be okay. They finally decided to use a toboggan to transport Chloe to the main road and seek help. Lily grabbed a lantern, cradled the baby and they departed.
At Crimson Lights, Roger and Ester decided to elope for Valentine's Day. Esther admitted she wants to rub her bride-to-be announcement in Jill's face, but Roger tried to persuade her otherwise, saying it'd make a bigger statement if she announces her marriage to Jill after they tie the knot. Later, the betrothed left to see Jill, anyway. She implored Esther to wait to get married, to no avail. They left to catch a plane; Jill was miffed.
Nikki surprised Paul and they quickly retreated to bed together. Post-lovemaking, Nikki admitted she resents Ash's new Newman position but noted that she's more happy being with Paul.
Jill rushed out to catch Esther before she left the building, explaining that she just got a call about Chloe giving birth at the cabin and she's headed to the hospital. Esther was stunned and left with Jill. Roger, meanwhile, wasn't pleased to have his wedding plans so unexpectedly shattered. He called Clint, saying the Vegas wedding is off because of Chloe's baby. Clint demanded he find a way to marry Esther and soon.
At the hospital, Cane, Lily and Billy fretted over Chloe. Olivia marveled at how brave the trio was to battle the snowstorm and rescue Chloe. The doctor entered with an update, saying that the baby is in great health but Chloe
needs an operation to remove pieces of the attached placenta that's causing her to bleed. He signed consent paperwork that also stated he's the baby's father. Lily and Billy exchanged wary looks. Before she was wheeled into surgery, Chloe flashed back to meeting Billy for the first time in New York
and later letting him feel the baby kick. The nurse noted that her condition is worsening. Meanwhile, the rest of the gang showed up to the hospital and met the new baby. Esther was thrilled; Cane held his daughter. Then Dr. Okamura entered, saying that Chloe's surgery is complete and was given a blood transfusion but her state of shock might have been too much.
Wednesday
Neil and Karen were thrilled when Rafe informed them that the judge terminated Yolanda's parental rights of Ana. After, Karen apologized to Neil for pursuing Ana's adoption without discussing it with Neil first. Neil didn't understand why she was rushing things; Karen explained that she wanted to make sure child services don't take Ana away. Neil wanted Tyra to be involved in the decision.... Tyra met up with Liv at Crimson Lights and lamented letting Neil go. When Tyra stated that there was something between her and Neil, Liv reminded her that he's off limits now that he's married. Later, Tyra apologized to Neil for kissing him. "The kiss was a mistake, it's not going to happen again," Neil shrugged. Tyra wondered if it would be best if she just left town. She was happy when Neil gave her the news about Yolanda ... but she wanted to be the one to adopt Ana. Neil didn't think Tyra realistically had a chance and assured her that if he and Karen adopt Ana, they'd keep Tyra in her life. Tyra then asked Neil if he sensed the chemistry between them and kissed him.... just as Karen entered the room.
At the hospital, Esther, Jill, Cane, Lily and Billy were alarmed when the doctor warned that Chloe could go into septic shock. They anxiously awaited at the hospital for word on Chloe and the baby's condition. Cane thanked Lily and Billy for delivering Chloe's child; Lily reminded him that Olivia also deserved the credit for talking them through the birth. After, Cane sat with Chloe and held her daughter. Esther became emotional upon seeing her granddaughter. The doctor told Billy and Lily that they saved Chloe's life. "I owe my life to you," Chloe agreed. Cane then placed the infant in her arms.... Billy and Lily went into the hallway and she reamed him out for lying about being the father of Chloe's baby. She implored him to tell Cane the truth — or else she would do it. In Chloe's hospital room, Cane spoke softly to the baby and looked forward to taking her to Australia. He also wondered why Chloe was at the cabin. Lily joined him and looked on sadly as she spied Cane with the infant. She asked if he meant what he'd said by the cabin, that he loves her. Cane didn't think this was the time to discuss it. However, he did want to know why Chloe was at the cabin and suspected that Lily knew the answer. "Was Chloe there to see Billy?" he asked. Lily told him to ask them.
Jack was incensed when Ashley informed him of Victor's offer for her to take over Brad's vacant seat on the Newman Enterprises board. Ashley insisted that Victor didn't have an ulterior motive and urged Jack to let go of his rivalry with Newman.
At the jail, Adam confided in the prison chaplain about how his family basically abandoned him. Meanwhile on the anniversary of Hope's death, Victor reflected on his life with her. Later, Victor lamented to Ashley not looking after Adam the way he'd promised Hope. Ash reminded him that Victor
is the only family Adam has. Victor then paid Adam a visit and gave his son Hope's bible. Adam told his father to get lost. "I never expected much outta you, but you're the only family I've got," Adam told him. "And you chose to let me rot in prison. Okay, Pop? The choice has been made. Have you called? Have you come by? Visited? Written a letter? Anything? So you show up here on the anniversary of my mother's death and you think that this gesture is going to assuage your guilt. Nice touch with the bible, by the way, but I see through it. And so did mom, and that's why she didn't want you to have anything to do with me. If she were alive today, she wouldn't want me to have anything to do with you. So why don't you just take the bible and get out!" "Well done, didn't think you had it in you," Victor replied, obviously impressed. Still, Victor warned him not to talk to him like that again.... At the coffeehouse, Abby questioned Ashley about Ash and Victor's relationship, and whether it was love. Abby admitted that she missed Brad; Ashley revealed that she still thinks about the late John. Abby then stated that Victor isn't her father. Ashley reminded her daughter that Victor loves her. Victor returned and told them that Adam was angry. He was touched when Abby said that they would've accompanied him to visit the jail.... Adam read
aloud the bible passage Victor highlighted for him. He then asked Frank to help him get out.
At the hospital, Cane admitted to Jill that he was thinking of leaving Chloe for Lily. He regretted wanting to leave his daughter's family. Jill agreed that a baby changed everything; Cane vowed to be there for the child and Chloe. He named the baby Cordelia Katherine Valentine Ashby and "introduced" her to a sleeping Chloe.
Billy went to Jimmy's bar and drank away his sorrows. He had a hallucination of Chloe, who accused him of hating her. Jack soon arrived at the bar and Billy informed him that Chloe had her baby — and he'd delivered the child.
Billy revealed that Lily now knows the baby is his. Jack asked an inebriated Billy what his next move was going to be and Billy gave him a ridiculous answer. Jack thought he should face the music and tell Cane the truth. Billy wanted to go back to being "Liam." Jack warned that if Billy didn't come clean soon, the guilt would eat away at him. "You don't want another man raising your child," stated Jack. "Being an Abbott doesn't guarantee crap," Billy snapped. Jack noted that he hardly knows his sons — and he didn't want Billy's daughter thinking that Cane was her father. "Stake your claim," he urged Billy.
Thursday
After flashbacking to their first anniversary, Sharon met with Nick so they could talk to their son. When Noah showed up, his parents explained that they were not going to prevent him from seeing Eden. "If you're going to see Eden or any of your friends, just tell us when you're going, where you'll be, what the plan is," Sharon spelled out. Noah happily agreed as Phyllis came home. When no one was looking, Sharon swiped a knickknack, then left. Noah asked if Eden could come over and Nick said, "Sure." Noah offered to babysit Summer so Nick and Phyllis could go out to dinner and they accepted. However, Nick thought about his and Sharon's anniversary.
At the dive bar, Jack advised Billy to "man up and tell Cane that you're that baby's father." After Jack left, Billy called a cab and headed over tothe hospital. Lily was the first to encounter him and suggested he sober up before telling Cane the truth. Cane showed up and Billy wasn't happy that his brother already named the baby. Billy wanted to see "the kid" but Cane prevented him which led to an argument. Jill came out to investigate the ruckus but Billy got ejected form the premises by a beefy intern. Cane groused to Jill, "That sloppy drunk is the guy you chose to replace me as the C.E.O. of Jabot."
Colleen and Abby gathered at Jabot for the reading of Brad's will. Ashley and Jack were present for support. The lawyer arrived and explained that Brad's mother Rebecca would be provided for and that his estate will be divided between Colleen and Abby. He also brought a letter composed by Brad for his daughters, which Jack read out loud. In it, Brad expressed his pride and love for each daughter, then finished with, "I'm grateful you girls have each other. Cherish that bond. Trust each other. Be there for each other. And most of all, love each other as I love you. Forever, Dad." Ashley was less than thrilled that Colleen was put in charge of Abby's trust. A letter from Brad revealed his uneasiness over her relationship with Victor. Jack urged his sister not to take Brad's board seat at Newman Enterprises and Ash said she already made a decision but didn't share it.
Billy returned to the bar, where he encountered a depressed Sharon. He suggested they drown their sorrows together and she agreed. Sharon brooded over Nick forgetting it's their anniversary and got drunker and drunker with Billy. The bartender offered to call a couple of cabs but Billy asked if they should just summon one. "That works for me," smiles Sharon and she kissed Billy.
Jill told Victor that Billy shouldn't be Jabot's CEO. "He's staying," ordered Vic. When Jill threatened to tattle to Ashley about his plans, he warned that she would lose controlling interest of Jabot.
Eden spent time with Noah and they played a board game, which he thought was "lame" but he didn't want to push his parents on his first night off house arrest. Eden assured that she was just "glad to see you." The teens started making out but Noah stopped when things got too hot and heavy. Meanwhile, Phyllis and Nick seemed to have trouble connecting during their date.
Chloe Watch continued as everyone waited for the antibiotics to kick in and kick out the septicemia. The alarm on Chloe's monitor suddenly went off and panic set in with Cane, Esther and Jill. The doctor announced that the patient was having a bad reaction to the antibiotic so she had to be switched to a new one. The waiting game continued.
Ashley informed Victor that she will take over Brad's vacant board seat. Meanwhile, Colleen told Jack she was invited to the Newman board meeting the next day but she didn't think she should go since they will be replacing her dad's seat. "I wouldn't do that," Jack noted.
Friday
At Crimson Lights, Karen kept thinking about seeing Neil and Tyra kiss, but kept it to herself. Neil was surprised when Karen told him that she went ahead with moving forward on them adopting Ana. He insisted that they involve Tyra in the discussion. Soon, Tyra arrived at the coffeehouse for a visit with Ana. After Neil left for work, Karen informed Tyra about them going ahead with their adoption plans. Later, Ana joined Tyra; Tyra grabbed the little girl and said that they needed to leave right away.
At the hospital, Chloe was awake and feeling better. Cane placed her daughter in her arms and shared the name he'd given her: Cordelia. Chloe was thrilled to hold her baby and told Esther that she was craving a particular food item that Esther knew how to make; Esther went home to cook for her daughter. After, Cane asked Chloe why she'd gone to the cabin where Billy and Lily were.
Victoria was appalled when Victor infomed her that he'd asked Ashley to take over Brad's vacant seat on the Newman Enterprises board. She believed that he should've consulted with her and Nick first, and accused him of putting his "new" family ahead of his old. Victor sternly reminded his daughter that it's his company. Victoria still feared that having Ashley on the board would be a conflict of interest. After, Victoria voiced her concerns to Nick. He agreed with her that Victor's decision didn't seem to be the best one.... Abby believed that Victor wanted Ashley on the board because he felt guilty about the way he treated Brad.
Nick stopped by Sharon's suite at the GCAC and found her looking like a wreck after her drunken night with Billy. Sharon flashed back to being with Billy. Nick became very concerned when she burst into tears, plus he was worried about drinking alone. Sharon explained that she drank to "celebrate" her and Nick's anniversary ... and reminded him that they're not supposed to be leaning on each other for support anymore. Meanwhile, Jack came upon a spent-looking Billy and called his little brother "death on toast." He taunted Billy about "not even knowing the girl's name," clueless that Billy had slept with Sharon. Billy also thought about the previous evening.... and asked Jack to back off. Jack again pushed Billy to step up as the father of Chloe's baby.
Later, Jack coached Colleen on dealing with Victor at the Newman Board meeting. Colleen was nervous about handling Newman, but Jack was confident that she'd do well. He looked forward to her surprising Victor.... Victoria complained to Nick about Ashley being on the board, noting that Victor wouldn't let Nikki have a seat. Soon, Ashley, Abby and Colleen arrived for the board members meeting and Victor presented them with a plaque honoring Brad for saving Noah's life. Colleen then announced that she was taking over Brad's seat -- and there was nothing Victor could do to stop her.
Jack paid Sharon a visit and was also alarmed at how unkempt she looked. Sharon curled up in bed and began sobbing about how messed up she was; Jack joined her and tried to make her feel better. He was surprised that she'd managed to drink an entire bottle of champagne on her own. Sharon kept remembering her night with Billy, including when they'd had champagne. Jack reminded Sharon that he's her friend and is always there for her.
Billy returned to the hospital and was relieved when Lily informed him that Chloe and the baby were going to be okay. Meanwhile, Chloe tearfully confessed to Cane that Cordelia wasn't his child and is Billy's. Billy joined them in the room just as she was finishing telling him. Cane refused to believe it. Lily entered the room and Cane had her take the baby to the nursery. He then let Chloe and Billy have it. Chloe took responsibility for everything, including lying to Billy, lying about sleeping with Cane and faking the sonogram. Billy explained that he kept mum because he wanted to honor Chloe's wishes to have Cane be the father. Cane went from shock to intense anger. "I gave up the love of my life and I spent eight months trying to be a husband to you, getting ready to be a father for our baby," he yelled. "Do you even realize that there is a baby involved in this? Do you even care that there is a little, innocent baby stuck in the middle of all this crap?!" When Lily returned, he let her have it for also keeping the secret; she explained that she just found out and didn't want to be the one to let Cane know that he'd lost another child. Cane stated that he was still the baby's father, regardless of everything else.... Billy went to Jimmy's and downed a few drinks. Lily came by and he sincerely told her that he cares for her. A furious Lily told him to "shove it." At the hospital, a nurse brought by the birth certificate while Chloe was getting tests. Cane signed his name as the father.
