Smashing the empty mug on the floor, Jordan wants more – she’s NOT going to prison or a psych ward or Victor’s dungeon! She knows the Newmans will stand around and let her die – but surely Claire will save her ‘loving’ Aunt.
Spotting Billy at the jazz lounge’s bar, Jack does a 180 and heads back upstairs. Too late, Billy’s spotted him too. He’s not looking for a fight either and wants to buy his brother a drink.
Mom! Faith runs to hug her Mom (who’s been brought home by Nick and Mariah)
Was I ever cruel to you? Jordan loved and sacrificed for Claire – have you forgotten the good times? For her daughter’s sake, Vikki will call an ambulance. No – Jordan bats the phone out of her hand.
Billy’s a drowning man – I thought I had it all figured out and had all the answers. He’s ready to stop fighting and start listening to people he respects; including Jack – who wants to know what’s going on.
Slumped between Mariah and Faith on the sofa, Sharon declines going to the hospital. She didn’t see who abducted her – but it’s not Cameron. Nick explains that Jordan locked Sharon in the sewer. Ian (according to Jordan) killed Heather and framed Sharon to get to Mariah (who now blames herself)
Getting wobbly, Jordan wants to make this memorable for the Newmans. Did you use the same poison we used on them? she asks Claire how much time she has?
Billy’s about to fall off a cliff – he’s consumed with hatred for Victor – and conflicted about his Mom. Jack can’t support him going after Adam. Billy seems to have changed his mind on revenge – even Phyllis wouldn’t go along with it. So, you’re ready to say goodbye to Abbott Chancellor for good? Jack asks.
Nick and Sharon won’t let Mariah blame herself. Ian’s a lunatic who’s hated the Newmans for a long time (but that’s a story for another day) Sharon again declines going to the hospital – she just wants a bath and to sleep in her own bed. I’m so sorry, Mariah gives her Mom an impulsive hug.
Claire gives Jordan about 10 minutes to live. She dumped a bunch of sleeping pills in her tea; Jordan will have a more peaceful death than she deserves. Vikki again offers to call for help. You’re a murderer, just like me, Jordan tells Claire; who disagrees – I did this to save my family, my REAL family.
Billy won’t make a career move until he’s resolved his issues with Jill. Jack’s proud of him – he understands (I almost lost my son because of Victor) Billy has some good ideas. Jack believes it – so much that he’s willing to bankroll one of those ideas.
