Scene 1

At the Genoa City Courthouse, Alex Perez has just exposed Victoria Newman’s secret marriage to Billy Abbott. The spectators – Michael Baldwin, Victor Newman, Nikki Newman, Abby Carlton, Phyllis Newman, Mackenzie Browning, Roseanne Ryerson, and especially JT Hellstrom – all look shocked.

“Is it true, Victoria?” JT stands up to ask. He has a disgusted look on his face. Victoria has tears in her eyes. She glances back at her parents, who are just as furious. “Don’t look at your father!” JT yells, “He can’t get you out of this one. Now, are you really married to Billy or not?”

Scene 2

Meanwhile, at the Newman Ranch, Sharon Newman is also engaging in a verbal combat with her teenaged son Noah Newman who was suspended for getting into a fight with Kyle Abbott. “Get up to your room!” Sharon orders, “I don’t want you to come out. I don’t want to see you for the rest of the night!” “Fine by me!” Noah remarks.

As Noah stomps his way up the stairs, Sharon’s eyes fill with tears. “Noah, why today?” she whispers aloud, “Why did this have to happen today, of all days?”

Scene 3

Jack Abbott has picked up his son Kyle Abbott from school and they’ve just returned to the Abbott Manor. Jack slams the front door and Kyle throws down his backpack. “Wait until I tell your mother about this,” Jack snaps, “You know that school has a no-tolerance policy for fighting. Do you know how many strings I had to pull so you wouldn’t be expelled?” “Sorry to be such an inconvenience,” Kyle replies sarcastically. He clearly doesn’t care at all.

“Go up to your room now!” Jack orders, “You have done enough damage for one day.” Kyle turns back to his father. “Jack, you have no idea all the damage I’ve caused,” he teases.

Scene 4

Inside the courtroom, Abby is texting Billy, telling him to get to the courthouse immediately. At the front of the courtroom, Victoria answers JT, who has demanded answers about Alex’s accusation. “I got our divorce papers,” she stammers, “I was worried about losing Reed… I just wanted to get away. I met Billy at the airport. We went to Jamaica. It just all happened so fast…” JT shakes his head. “So you married Billy on the day that our divorce became final?” he realizes. There’s contempt in his voice.

“I was drunk! We both were!” Victoria shouts, not realizing how much she is hurting her case. “Oh, that makes it sound so much better!” JT shouts back at her, “You better just shut up right now, Victoria, before you make yourself look any more pathetic than you already have.”

Scene 5

Diane Jenkins is at the Athletic Club, speaking on her cell phone to an unknown individual. “You’ll be pleased with the progress we’ve made,” she informs the caller, “It’s almost ready for occupation… I’m heading over there later today to oversee everything myself… I’m thrilled to be given this opportunity… Yes, Mr. McCall. You too. Bye.”

As Diane hangs up, she receives another incoming call. It’s Jack. She picks up. “Jack, is there a problem?” she asks without greeting him. “Yes. A big one!” Jack states, “Our son is suspended from school.” “For what?” Diane reacts. “Just come home,” Jack orders, not wanting to get into it on the phone. “I’m on my way,” Diane agrees.

Jack hangs up and turns to Kyle. “Now, what were you talking about before when you said I have no idea how much damage you caused?” he inquires, “What else have you done that I don’t know about?” Kyle smirks. “The Newman custody case is going on today, right?” he asks. “Yes,” Jack replies. He’s confused as to why Kyle is interested. “What does that have to do with you?” Jack follows up. “You’ll hear about it soon enough…,” Kyle says cryptically, speaking of the fact that he tipped Alex off about Billy and Victoria’s marriage.

Scene 6

Back at the Courthouse, Victoria knows how angry Victor is at her deception. She wants to keep him on her side. “Daddy, I…,” she stammers. Victor cuts her off. “You have been carrying on with this sleezeball behind my back for months!” he yells, “You married him! You married Billy Abbott, for heaven’s sakes? What the hell were you thinking?” Michael tries to calm things down. “Victor, with all due respect, this is hardly the time…,” he says. Victor ignores his lawyer and friend. He turns back to Victoria.

“You come to me for my help and meanwhile you’re going to bed with this Abbott loser!” he shouts, “You know how much I despise that arrogant bastard. He has tormented this family over and over again printing stories in his filthy rag.” “I know, but that’s business,” Victoria defends Billy, “Just like you always say.” “There’s no buts,” Victor tells his daughter, “This is the worst kind of betrayal imaginable! I will never forget this, you got it?” “Daddy!” Victoria calls out as Victor turns away. “Don’t ‘Daddy’ me,” Victor mumbles as he walks off.

Nikki approaches Victoria. She’s more supportive than Victor is, but she’s clearly disappointed in her daughter, as well. “I’ll talk to your father,” she mutters, “but listen, Sweetheart, if you lose your son, you’ll have no one to blame but yourself…”

Scene 7

Sharon picks up the photo of Cassie Newman on the mantle of the fireplace. It’s her deceased daughter’s birthday today.

There’s a knock on the front door. Sharon takes a moment to collect herself. “Coming!” she shouts. She opens the door and sees Daniel Romalotti, Jr. “Hey, what brings you by?” Sharon asks, trying to put on a happy face. “Just checkin up on ya,” Daniel tells her. He knows what day it is. “I’m fine,” Sharon lies. “No you’re not,” Daniel sees through her. “You’re right,” Sharon admits, “I’m not…” She motions for Daniel to come inside.

Scene 8

Eden Gerick is calling her [ex?] boyfriend Noah Newman. There’s no answer. She hangs up the phone as her sister-in-law and guardian Lauren Fenmore Baldwin returns home. “You’re home early,” Eden states. “Yeah, I asked Roxanne to cover for the rest of the day,” Lauren reveals, “There’s something that’s been bothering me that I wanted to come and clear up.” “What is it?” Eden asks.

“You know, this isn’t easy for me to say,” Lauren begins, “but I think I owe it to you to let you know that there’s some unfortunate rumors going around about you.” Eden perks up but doesn’t say anything. “I was at the Boutique and some girls were in there,” Lauren continues. “What did they say?” Eden wants to know. “Oh, it’s totally ridiculous,” Lauren replies vaguely, “I know you would never do what they said you did, but I don’t think your name should be being tarnished in the way that it is.” “What did they say?” Eden asks again, growing more frantic.

“Well, you know, they said some things about you and Kyle Abbott… sleeping together,” Lauren announces with a laugh, “I know how catty teenaged girls can be…” “No, it is true,” Eden confesses, catching Lauren off-guard. “What?” Lauren reacts. “I said… it’s true,” Eden repeats, regret in her voice and embarrassment on her face, “I cheated on Noah. With Kyle…”

Scene 9

Diane returns to the Abbott Manor and finds Jack pacing in the living room. “So what’s the trouble?” she demands. “Another fight involving Kyle and Noah,” Jack reveals, “This one took place on school property. Hence, why our son is suspended for the rest of the week.” Diane sighs and takes a seat on the couch. “What were they fighting about this time?” she asks.

“It appears the night of that party that Kyle and Ricky threw here, our son became ‘involved’ with a girl,” Jack states. “What do you mean ‘involved?’” Diane questions, “Kyle is too young for a girlfriend.” “Diane, he’s 17,” Jack says, “He’s practically an adult.”

Kyle comes into the room, having heard the tail-end of the conversation. ”Yeah, I’m 17,” he echoes Jack, “Practically an adult. For once, you should listen to Daddy. And Mother, just so you know, I don’t have ‘girlfriends.’ I have ‘hook-ups.’ That way, I avoid all that sentimental attachment crap.” “I thought I told you to go to your room!” Jack tells his son, “Oh hell, it doesn’t matter. I suppose you should be here to explain yourself…” He turns back to Diane. “Anyways, the point is that the girl in question here was Eden,” Jack informs her. “Noah’s girlfriend,” Diane realizes. “That’s right,” Jack confirms. “So you two are fighting over this girl?” Diane interrogates her son. “Not fighting over her,” Kyle says, “Like I said, I don’t do girlfriends. I don’t want her anymore. She wanted me. I used her for one night and that was it. If Noah couldn’t handle that, it’s his problem. Not mine…”

Scene 10

Back on the Newman Ranch, Sharon and Daniel have been discussing Daniel. “I wish things had turned out differently,” Sharon says, “that she was still here.” “I do too,” Daniel echoes. “We’ve come a long way, haven’t we?” Sharon asks rhetorically. “Yeah, I remember when you couldn’t stand the sight of me…,” Daniel recalls.

Sharon flashes back to May 2005. “If you wanna blame someone for Cassie’s death, you blame Daniel,” Nick had told her. Sharon then remembers confronting Daniel in the hospital when Cassie was in critical condition. “You have no idea how sorry I am,” Daniel had apologized, but Sharon wouldn’t listen. “I could just kill you for what you’ve done to this family. You don’t deserve to live,” she had told him. Then, she had lunged at Daniel and shouted “Get out of here” as Nick held her back.

“Cassie’s death changed all of our lives,” Daniel states, back in the present, “It’s what started everything. It’s why you and Nick used to hate me, it’s what ended up bringing me and Noah together.” “Nick and your mom together,” Sharon adds. “Yeah, in a strange way, it brought us all together. We’re all connected through Cassie. You, me, Noah, my mom, and Nick…”

Sharon nods. “I know he had the hearing,” she begins, “but that’s why I’m surprised I haven’t heard anything from Nick yet…”

Scene 11

Nicholas Newman has been kidnapped and is being held captive in an abandoned warehouse somewhere outside of Genoa City. He’s tied to a chair, unable to move, trapped in the dark, cold building. “Hello! Is anyone out there?” Nick shouts at the top of his lungs, “Can anyone hear me? Help!?” No one heard him earlier, but Nick tries again. “Hello!? Anyone! I need help!”

Scene 12

At the back of the courtroom, JT and Mackenzie react to the news of Victoria and Billy’s marriage. “I can’t believe it,” JT says, flabbergasted. “Victoria and Billy…,” Mackenzie says, shaking her head, “I never would have seen that coming.”

JT thinks logically. “You gotta admit: it does help our case, though…,” he realizes, “I just wish Alex would have given me some warning instead of blindsiding me along with everyone else.” “I suppose she wanted the judge to see all of our reactions,” Mackenzie theorizes. “Speaking of reactions, how are you doing with this whole thing?” JT asks his girlfriend, “I know Michael’s interrogation was rough on you, and now this news about Billy and Victoria came out of nowhere… so, are you okay?” Mackenzie nods. “Yeah, I’ll be fine,” she says, “We’ll be fine… the twins and I. We’ll be okay.” “Good,” JT replies. He puts his hand on her shoulder.

As JT walks off, Mackenzie slowly readjusts herself. She experiences a sharp pain, although she tries not to show it.

Roseanne approaches Alex. “How did you pull that off?” she asks, impressed. “The information arrived at just the right time,” Alex replies. “Apparently,” Roseanne agrees, “I had no idea of any of this when I was evaluating Ms. Newman, not that it would have changed anything.” Alex doesn’t say anything. “Now they’ll have no grounds to challenge my recommendations,” Roseanne continues, “Your client should have no problem being granted full custody of his son…”

Scene 13

At the Baldwins’ Apartment, Lauren and Eden continue to discuss Eden’s infidelity. “I can’t believe this,” Lauren reacts, “You hate Kyle!” “Yeah, with a passion,” Eden admits, “And that’s the problem. Everything about him repulsed me. But at the same time, it also kindof attracted me to him. It’s sick. I can’t explain it.” “Mmhmm,” Lauren nods to let Eden know she’s still listening.

“I know he doesn’t care about me,” Eden confesses, “He just wanted to use me to make Noah mad.” “So Noah knows?” Lauren deduces. “Yeah. I don’t know how,” Eden replies, “but the two of them got into it today at school. Noah was furious. He won’t even talk to me.” “Can you blame him?” Lauren responds, “I mean, it’s understandable that he needs some time. This was his arch-enemy that you betrayed him with…” “I know it was a mistake,” Eden whines, “I gave in to temptation and I shouldn’t have, but Noah is the one that I want. Not Kyle. And I have to make him realize that…”

Scene 14

Noah is in his bedroom. There is loud, ‘angry’ music blaring as he rips down all the photos of himself and Eden that were plastered on his mirror and wall.

Scene 15

Nick is still locked up in the abandoned warehouse and his thoughts drift to his daughter Cassie.

He remembers the lullaby that he sang to her as she was on her deathbed. He remembers the events that had led up to her accident. “So I think we should let Cassie hang out with her friends tonight,” Nick had told Sharon. “Grounded is grounded,” Sharon had held firm to her beliefs, “And I don’t think that we should give in just because she wants us to.”

[Time cut]

“I did what you told me to do,” Sharon had informed Nick after changing her mind. “You gave Cassie permission to go out tonight?” Nick realized.

[Time cut]

Then the unthinkable had happened. Nick had received a phone call. “Oh God, it’s Cassie,” Sharon had deduced, “What happened? Tell me what happened.” “There was an accident,” Nick stated as he picked up his coat.

“Happy birthday, Cassie…,” Nick whispers.

Scene 16

Victor and Nikki discuss Victoria’s marriage by the courtroom entrance. “It’s disgusting what our daughter has done,” Victor comments, “Absolutely, totally disgusting.” Nikki nods her head. “I know, but Victor, you promised her that you would help her,” she gently reminds him, “This is your child, your oldest daughter. Regardless of how you feel about Billy and what our daughter did, Victoria… she’s a good mother and she doesn’t deserve to have her son taken away from her.” “I don’t want that arrogant bastard Billy Abbott to be anywhere around my grandson,” Victor admits. “We’ll deal with that later,” Nikki tells him, “Right now, we just need to make sure that Victoria regains custody of Reed. So Victor, what are you going to do to help our daughter?” Victor sighs. “I told you that you aren’t going to like it,” he says, “But I’ll do what must be done… no matter the consequences…”

Scene 17

In the living room of the Abbott Manor, Jack and Diane continue to discuss Kyle’s behavior. “We have to deal with the root of Kyle’s problems,” Jack states, “It’s a new year. I want to start it off right where my son is concerned.” “It means a lot to hear you say that,” Diane tells him. “I accept full responsibility for getting Kyle to the point that he’s at now. But it is not a point of no return,” Jack states, “Let’s try family counselling… From here on out, we do this together…” “That’s right,” Diane nods. She reaches over and gives Jack a hug.

Kyle is listening in on the conversation. He peaks in, and Diane sees him. Instead of yelling at him and sending him back up to his room, she subtly gives him a ‘thumbs up’ sign. Kyle winks back at his mother. Interesting…

Scene 18

The judge bangs his gavel. “Okay, let’s all have a seat and get settled back in,” he orders. Victoria returns to the stand and the judge begins to question her. “Ms. Newman, you do realize that you’re under oath?” he reminds her. “Yes, your Honor,” Victoria replies. “Why didn’t you disclose your marital status to the courts earlier?” the judge demands, “Everyone has been calling you Miss or Ms. Newman, nor Mrs. Abbott. Ms. Ryerson was unaware of your marriage the entire time that she was evaluating your child’s custody situation…”

Michael steps forward. “Ms. New—Mrs. Abbott, why don’t you tell the courts why you thought it was best to conceal your marriage?” he encourages Victoria. “Because I made a mistake,” Victoria admits, “The way that the marriage happened. I wasn’t in the right state of mind. I wanted to end it right away… as soon as I came to my senses. But I thought if we tried to get an annulment, someone would find out and then it would be used against me.” “So you and Mr. Abbott decided to wait on it... to see what would happen?” the judge clarifies. “Yes,” Victoria confirms, “Your Honor, I didn’t want you to do exactly what you’re threatening now… To take my son away from me permanently.”

“What happens now… that your marriage has been exposed?” the judge asks, “Do you and Mr. Abbott go through with the annulment? Would he become a step-father to your son?” Billy Abbott walks in to the courtroom just as Victoria is being asked these questions. “I… I don’t know,” Victoria stutters, “I haven’t thought that far ahead. I didn’t plan on any of this getting out.”

“Your deception has given me a very strong reason to rule in favor of the child’s father,” the judge informs Victoria. Victor steps up. “That’s where you’re wrong, Your Honor,” he states. The judge turns his head. “I beg your pardon?” he says. “Please, Your Honor, if I may speak. I think it’s time that the truth be known,” Victor announces without the judge’s permission, “Jeffrey Todd Hellstrom is not the child’s father, and has never been… My grandson’s biological father is that sunnuvabitch, Bradley Carlton.” Everyone in the courtroom gasps.

Scene 19

Sharon and Daniel are now upstairs in the Main House on the Newman Ranch. Sharon bangs on the wall. “Noah, turn that down!” she shouts over top of the music he has blaring. She turns to Daniel. “He can’t even hear me,” she says. “Should I talk to him while I’m here?” Daniel asks, “I mean… suspended from school. That’s a big deal. Maybe I can help.” “I appreciate it, but I think we should just leave him alone right now,” Sharon says, “He’s really angry because of everything with Kyle and Eden.” “I can’t believe that,” Daniel comments, “I know how much Eden and Noah care for each other.”

They continue to walk down the hallway and Sharon peaks into her bedroom. “Oh, my bed is looking so comfortable right now,” she comments, “I just want this day to be over with… I should have been spending it with my family. Instead, I’m just trying to find a way to kill the time.” “Well, in case you haven’t noticed, you’re not alone,” Daniel informs her, “So maybe we could kill that time, with each other…” Sharon giggles. “I know, it sounds crazy, right?” Daniel realizes, “but we had a good time playing basketball…”

As if on cue, they both lean in and kiss one another on the lips. Neither one initiated it… there had been a mutual attraction building for a long time…

Finally, they both come to their senses and pull away. Daniel wipes his mouth. “That was stupid,” he comments with a smirk across his face. Sharon manages a slight smile. “Yeah, stupid,” she nods, but despite that, they find themselves kissing again. More passionately. They stop. “We are such idiots,” Daniel says with a laugh. He kisses her neck. “I don’t want you to stop,” Sharon moans. “Who says I want to?” Daniel tells her. Their lips meet again.

Now, Sharon pins Daniel against the wall. “I’ve been so lonely for so long,” she whispers, “We both have…” “Not tonight,” Daniel states. She starts to undue the buttons of his shirt. Daniel has a realization. “Noah’s right next door,” he says. “He has his music turned up,” Sharon responds, in between kisses, “We’ll be quiet…” “Victor, Nikki… Abby?” Daniel asks softly. “No, they’re all still at the Courthouse,” Sharon informs Daniel. She kisses him again.

Scene 20

After Victor’s claim that JT is not Reed’s father, the following montage of clips is played as Noah’s “angry music” continues on in the background:

-Abby running out of the courthouse in tears…
-Nikki turning away from Victor in disgust…
-JT approaching Victor to fight him, with Michael stepping between them.
-Victoria running into Billy’s arms after being questioned on the stand.
-Mackenzie sitting at the back of the courtroom, very pregnant, watching helplessly as JT’s world falls apart in front of her eyes.
-Phyllis calling Nick and still getting no answer.
-Roseanne watching her intently from the other side of the courtroom, just to see the look of concern on Phyllis’s face.

Scene 21

-As the music continues, Nick is continuing to struggle to break free of the ropes that are tying him to his chair. It’s dark and he’s tired. Finally, he realizes there’s no escape and gives up.

Scene 22

-Noah’s phone lights up, indicating an incoming call. He checks the caller ID and sees that it’s Eden calling. Still very upset with her, he throws his cell phone out the window, shattering the glass.

Scene 23

-Eden puts down the phone and Lauren consoles her.

Scene 24

-Meanwhile, as the Newman family is crumbling and Phyllis, Nick, and Noah are all lost and alone, Sharon and Daniel continue to find comfort in each other. They are now in bed together, kissing passionately, their clothes scattered all over the room. Noah’s loud music continues to play. Although he’s in the room next door, he has no idea what’s going on between his mother and his step-brother…
