Victor and Cane Exchange Threats — and Sienna Suspects Matt’s Set a Trap

Victoria arrives at the Newman ranch, where her father asks how things went in Milan. She admits that she couldn’t get Summer to face Phyllis, but instead talked her into writing a “scathing” note. Daddy doubts that it will make a difference and shares that he’s already managed to get Chancellor back. She’s sure her mom is thrilled, but Victor says Nikki won’t be back. She’s gone.

Victoria correctly assumes this is connected to Jack. Victor crabs that Nikki can’t accept that Jack was only a means to an end. He wouldn’t tolerate her criticizing his choices, so she’s gone… and their break may be “irreparable” this time. The only way they will get back together is if Nikki “comes to her senses.”

Nikki Gets Emotional

At Crimson Lights, Sharon and Noah worry about Nick and Nikki arrives and joins in. They updated her on the plan to get Matt’s location from Riza. Nikki and Sharon are just glad Noah didn’t go to Vegas, too. They only wish they’d stopped Nick from going.

Nikki gets choked up when Noah gives her a Billie Holiday album. He and Sharon assume there’s more going on. Her grandson asks about her moving off the ranch. Cagey, Nikki insists that she is only taking a break. She changes the subject to Mariah and Sharon until Sienna shows up, eager to speak to Noah alone. Nikki gets a text from Victoria and heads out.

Devon Rags on Lily

At the Chancellor Estate, Devon and Nate welcome Lily home, but waste no time probing whether Victor was holding her and the twins against their will. Lily tries changing the topic, but Devon tells her he hasn’t been sleeping, and Nate pushes her for a straight answer. Finally, Lily admits it was all a ruse.

Nate and Devon are outraged that she would put the family through all this pain over nothing. Lily tries to make excuses, but Devon thinks what she’s done is as bad as anything Cane did. She says she won’t make excuses for herself, then proceeds to make excuses for herself.

Lily explains she had the chance to get Chancellor back. Devon assumes Victor screwed her over yet again. Lily tries to spin it, but neither of the men believes she can trust anything the Newman says. This entire plan was pointless. Devon accuses her of doing it just to stick it to her ex.

Victoria Doesn’t Doubt Daddy

Nikki meets with Victoria at the Athletic Club. Victor is on the menu. Nikki lays out his latest misdeeds, but is fuzzy on how abducting Jack resulted in Diane leaving him. It sounds to Victoria like Daddy did no real wrong. Whatever happened to his marriage must have been on Jack.

Victor Gloats to Cane

At Society, Ashby drinks and mopes about Lily, determined to stay out of her life. Victor strolls in, eager to gloat. Cane confronts him, explaining Nikki tipped him off about his scheme. That Victor could be heartless is hardly news, but he had no idea Lily could be so vicious. This only makes the Mustache chortle and toast to himself.

The Final Scenes

At Crimson Lights, Sienna shows Noah the latest texts from Matt. When he tries to assure her that his dad will end this soon, it dawns on her that Matt might have planted Riza as a red herring to get Nick out of town. Her ex could be in town and watching them!

Back at the Chancellor Estate, Lily admits to Devon and Nate that when she told Cane what really happened, he said he never wants to see her again. They think that would be a relief. Devon advises his sister to cut her losses and walk away from her deal with Victor for all of their sakes.

At the Athletic Club, Nikki is aghast that Victoria can’t see the damage Victor has done. Whatever happened was because of Victor’s sick vendetta. “It’s time that he is taught a lesson,” she declares.

At Society, Victor brags to Cane that he hardly had to offer Lily anything. He suggests Cane return to France. Ashby makes it clear he’s not going anywhere and puts The Black Knight on notice: he may still burn the whole town down just for fun. It only takes on match. Victor chuckles and mocks until Cane walks out. “Get ready for more, boy. I’ll make your life hell,” Victor growls.
