If I ‘wasn’t myself’ who was I? Ashley can’t remember what happened last night and wants to get help. She’s glad to hear that Sharon recommended a therapist. When Kyle appears, Ashley wonder what’s going on. Harrison’s sick, Traci lies. Diane takes Kyle to the kitchen to give him a reassuring hug – Harrison will be OK.

As Vikki shares her doubts, Cole has confidence in their daughter. Eat up – she’s going to need us.

Summer tells her Dad that she got into it last night with Vikki and her grandparents. When Kyle calls to ask how she’s holding up, Summer snaps – how do you think I’m holding up? My son’s been kidnapped and you let it happen ~click~

Though Nick thinks Summer’s being a bit tough on Kyle (he’s got to be worried too) Phyllis doesn’t blame her – this is on Kyle. He’s not the only person who was convinced Claire had changed, Nick points out. You were all wrong, Summer scowls.

This isn’t your fault, Diane takes Kyle upstairs to make some calls. Ending a call, Traci tells Ashley that she has an intake appointment this morning. I’ll be right there with you, she goes upstairs to get ready.

Coming back in with Nikki, Jack’s happy to hear that Traci’s taking Ashley to the hospital and changes the subject when Nikki asks what’s going on. As soon as Nikki leaves, Kyle runs downstairs – Dad, I got another text from Claire.

Summer’s beside herself with worry – Harrison must be terrified. We’ll bring him home, Nick insists. I can’t be here, Summer runs out. Jordan will pay, this time for good, Nick fumes to Phyllis.






Kyle relays Claire’s text – she wants to get Jordan out of the country safely (ask Victor for details on his offer) Claire will reveal Harrison’s location when Jordan’s safely away. Jack will ask Victor about his ‘last offer’.

Meeting Nikki at the ranch, Lauren’s sorry to hear that she had a drink and about what Jordan’s putting her through (which she can relate to due to Sheila) As supportive as Jack was, Lauren will go to a meeting with Nikki.

Vikki and Cole do more of the same. Claire might be in danger, Vikki can’t lose her daughter again.

Follow up on every lead! Victor barks into his phone as Jack and Kyle arrive with news. Victor tells them about the offer he made – the trap he set for Jordan – Nikki calling 911 when she drank poison. Since there’s no mention of anything for Claire, he concludes that she’s not involved.

Traci gives Ashley a pep talk before they leave – she’s so proud of her sister for facing this head on. You’ve got this – I’m with you ~hug~

Phyllis wants to take those bitches out; to hold Summer until Harrison’s back safe and sound. Nick agrees – we have to being him home.

Summer lets herself into Harrison’s room to weep into a stuffed animal.

Kyle and Jack tend to agree with Victor; Claire’s not involved. Victor instructs them to tell Jordan that the deal stands – as long as she returns Harrison to them safely.

My Thoughts: A bar that’s open all night? That’s really a thing in Wisconsin? Jack should stop enabling Nikki; fine, be proud of her for coming to him – but don’t condone her drinking and driving. She was probably still under the influence when Jack sent her home… Summer really needs to find some synonyms for the word ‘psychopath’. That said, it was heartbreaking to see her crying on Harrison’s bed and she’ll have to eat a lot of crow when Claire saves Harrison … If Claire went up to read Harrison a bedtime story, why is the bed neatly made as if he was never in it at all? … .. OMG – what is that Traci’s talking into? The Abbott’s actually have a landline? In their living room? Complete with a curly cord? … Vikki must have spent a lot of time in the produce section – she seems to have bought every fruit … Diane and Traci did a good job of not letting Kyle and Ashley cross paths, so neither knows what the other is going through (hopefully, Traci keeps the radio off on the drive to the doctor’s – surely, the the news is aware that every security guard in GC is looking for a kidnapped boy … I kept waiting for one of Ashley’s alter egos to take over. I wonder if she noticed the pile of flowers dumped out back .. Funny line of the day goes to Phyllis ‘Oh, I would never do anything like that? she tells Nick with a straight face (as if she’s never displayed psychopathic tendencies herself)
