At the penthouse, Marisa rants n raves. Everything was perfect for Noah and I until you called him the police. Adam didn’t. It was Victor. Noah tried to work with Luca to bring Victor down. Adam kept it quiet as long as he could. If he didn’t tell Victor, Luca would have had. Adam tried to get Victor to drop it. You sold him out! Marisa slaps Adam. That’s enough! Chelsea steps in.
At the club, Paul won’t discuss why Victor would turn Noah in – Noah’s been charged with the hit & run and cover up. Billy can’t remember anything. Try, Vikki pressures – you can do it. Paul prods him – you ran into your bookie …. Billy stays quiet as he now remembers seeing Noah’s reflection in a mirror.
Nick and Sharon take a walk down memory lane – including a flashback to their first wedding – Nick carrying Mrs Newman over the threshold and into their new home. Flashback to Noah being born; he’s still our little boy. He’s in a lot of trouble. Because of my Father, Nick scowls.
Not remembering anything else, Billy sends Paul off. Now alone, Vikki knows better and learns that Billy does remember, but isn’t going to the police with this. Noah’s a decent guy who got in over his head. Getting hit by that car was the best thing that happened to me. Vikki thinks that noble, but she’s furious. It was an accident, Billy continues – I’m here. I have to keep this secret – for us.
Back off! Chelsea blasts Marisa – want someone to blame, go find Victor! No, don’t go find Victor, Adam explains – he blames YOU for Noah turning his back on him. There’s a price for betrayal in the Newman family.
Nick strolls into Victor’s office – why the hell would you turn your grandson into the police? To save him, Victor replies.
Save Noah from what? Victor tells Nick that Adam put Noah on a plane out of the country. He was on the run with Marisa. He needs to face his punishment like a man then start here at NE from the beginning. You’re not ever sure he hit Billy, Nick fumes. Vikki arrives – we’re sure. Billy remembers. Nick looks ill – I guess he went straight to Paul. No, Billy isn’t going to the police. But Vikki agrees with Victor; Noah should pay for what he’s done. Nick’s tired of Noah being used as a pawn. If either of you need me, I’ll be with my son!!!
On the patio, Dylan tells Paul that he doesn’t need to be reassigned (because of Sharon being Noah’s Mom) Victor dodged most of Paul’s questions but handed over solid evidence.
Marisa doesn’t give a damn about Victor – she’s going to check on Noah (and doesn’t care if she’s charged with being an accessory) It’s a bad idea, Adam calls out as Marisa marches.
Vikki can’t ignore what Noah did. Will Billy follows her lead and go to the police? Vikki’s not sure, but appreciates Victor letting Billy propose at Top of the Tower. Perhaps he’s found a way to be happy for them? Victor wants Vikki to be happy – but this marriage won’t last either.
