Victor suspects sabotage
At the GCAC on The Young and the Restless, Victor met with Michael, who said their spy had gone quiet. Victor worried the mole had been exposed and thought about pulling him out. They also talked about Billy’s upcoming meeting with Aristotle Dumas.
Victor didn’t trust it and believed it was a trap, so he planned to let Billy walk into it. When Jack showed up bragging about his family, Victor grew more suspicious. Michael suggested backing off, but Victor refused.
Claire and Holden bond much to Kyle’s dismay
At the jazz lounge on The Young and the Restless, Claire ran into Holden at the bar. They introduced themselves and had another friendly chat, growing closer. Kyle walked in while they were laughing and didn’t like what he saw.
He met Holden but stayed cold and tense. Audra and Nate arrived soon after, and Audra teased Kyle about having competition. Kyle didn’t react, but he told Claire he planned to figure out what Audra meant.
Lily recruits Damian despite the warning signs
At Society, Lily had dinner with Damian and talked about her twins before bringing up something more serious. She asked for his help in finding out what Aristotle Dumas was really doing in Genoa City. Damian was unsure, worried about risking his job and drawing attention. Still, he said it was hard to turn Lily down and agreed to think about it.
Later, Devon and Abby arrived, and Damian left. Devon questioned how much Lily trusted Damian and even asked if she liked him. Lily denied it and said she was just using Damian to get information on Dumas.
Nate and Audra's risky alliances
At Nate’s place, Audra tried to convince him she could handle Victor this time. Nate didn’t believe her at first and warned that Victor always had hidden motives. He asked what Victor might gain from her new business move. Though he was unsure at first, Nate eventually apologized and suggested they go out for a nightcap.
