Start a new discussion thread about today's show at the bottom of this page. Today Cane continued to lie to Lily about his past and at the same time he agreed to have another DNA test done when Jill ask him to. Last time we saw Cane he was opening the safe and took out his passport and put it in his pocket. Today he took some money out but put it back quickly when Lily showed up. After Cane talks to Jill about the DNA test and she assures him they believe him she just wants to prove it once and for all and move on and basically to shut Nina up, Cane is shown reaching into a freezer taking out a tube of blood. Later he makes a phone call and says by the time I hear back from you, I will have already done what I needed to do so maybe you can stop hiding. So that blood must belong to Phillip and that's how Cane passed the DNA test the second time. And Phillip must have not died in that car accident, but he is on the run now and maybe he was then. Either way he's alive and about to shake up Genoa City if this means what it appears to mean anyway. It wasn't a fun day at the Newman Ranch either. Adam walked into the room shortly after the baby head hit the floor and Victor asks him if this is his handy work. Adam can't see of course so Victor has to tell him what's going on. He immediately blames Estella and Nikki says how dare you. Adam says she believes she was fired because of Ashley. He apologized to Ashley and Victor ask him if he was apologizing because he did this and Adam says no he'd never hurt Ashley. Nikki tells Adam that Estella is not capable of such cruelty and that's more than she can say for some people in this house. Victor says that's enough. Victor called the police over the package with the baby head being delivered to Ashley and frightening her. About the time the police are there so is Detective Wallace. They don't find a fingerprint on the baby head but they do find one on the box. Victor demands that Estella give her fingerprints and Rafe tries to stop her from doing it but Estella says no she wants to clear herself. Unfortunately for Estella that was the wrong thing to do. The fingerprints were Estella's. Nikki had come to Ashley and Victor so that Estella could come and explain her side. That never happened but Ashley screams at Estella that she never liked her from the day she arrived and she always like Nikki and especially Sabrina better. Estella said that was not true it was Ashley who didn't like her and she had ordered her around and made demands upon her and treated her badly. But now Estella is in handcuffs and going to jail for what has happened regardless of who liked who first or who didn't. And it appears to everyone that Adam is not the one doing this to Ashley it's been Estella all along just like Adam says? Now I don't buy that myself but prints are prints and right now only Estella's are on the box.Victor also finally tosses Nikki out which I expected him to do last week but he was nicer than normal about tossing her. Victor says he wants to put an end to this torment today and Adam is shown upstairs in his room listening and says and so it begins. Victor asks Detective Wallace to do the testing at his house he'll make sure he has whatever resources he needs made available. Victor goes all out he wants Rafe and Estella checked. Estella is miffed she says first me now my nephew. Well he might have been an accomplice without us knowing that says Victor. Nikki is just beside herself she tells Victor Estella is practically family and he's known Rafe since he was a baby. Victor says he also wants Adam's prints checked as well. Rafe says he won't do it. Detective Wallace says if they won't cooperate then he'll need a warrant and Victor tells them cooperate today or I'll have the DA issue a subpoena. Ashley says if you are innocent why won't you just do it and prove you are innocent. Rafe says he will fight Victor every step of the way and that's when Estella says no we what do we have to do. I thought you said they wanted to hear my side. Nikki looks helpless. Victor says he will leave them to Detective Wallace and leaves the room. Nikki hollers behind him Victor please don't do this and Victor says it's already done. Nikki tells Estella not to worry when Detective Wallace says his CSI van is outside and they can take her prints out there. Victor goes to Adam's room and tells him that Detective Wallace is here and found a print on the box. Adam thinks back to the day that Estella came by and said she had left some things for Victor at the ranch. They were in a box. The he tells Victor lucky for me my prints are already in the system for comparison. Thanks for the heads up thought Dad. Was there something else you wanted to tell me? You're not even nervous are you says Victor. I'm not afraid of the truth says Adam.Later downstairs as they wait for the test results Nikki tells Estella the truth is on her side not to worry. Rafe tells Adam that the thought of Victor putting the all through this just makes him want to and Adam says I know I'm sorry you got put through this. Detective Wallace finally comes in and says Estella is a match. Estella says it's not true. She wants to see the box. Detective Wallace tells her it's evidence and it's on it's way downtown. Estella. Estella says she wants to see that box and Ashley says what difference does that make. Estella says she brought some things over in a box the other day with Mr. Newman's things in it. Maybe whoever is doing these horrible things used it thinking it would be traced back to me. My God I didn't do anything she pleads. Are you going to deny having access to this house Estella. You let yourself in to this house just the other day with your own key. And that's when the argument about who liked or didn't like who began. Estella tells Ashley that was because she was cold, inconsiderate, dismissive and unkind and maybe that was because she knew she could never replace Nikki or Sabrina. Victor hollers Estella Basta! That's enough. Detective Wallace says he assumes he wants to press charges. Victor says he does. Nikki tries to stop him she says Victor you are talking about someones life now, someone that you know is innocent. This is when Victor tells Nikki I want you to leave right now. Nikki tells Estella, again I'm so sorry I will do everything I can to help you. Estella tells her thank you. Adam was there during all of this and didn't say one word. I couldn't read him. I thought he always liked Estella but he sure did set her up if he did this but he looks very uncomfortable now. More nervous than when Victor talked to him both times earlier. But he doesn't say a word. Victor comes to Adam's room and says Detective Wallace is on his way. Adam says good maybe he can make Victor believe he's not the one tormenting Ashley. It will end her suffering. Victor says you sound almost sympathetic where Ashley is concerned. I'd also like to clear my name says Adam. Of course you would says Victor. You can't even consider the possibility that I might be innocent says Adam. I can't even go ten feet out the door without alarms going off. And I'm blind adds Adams as Victor is checking his ankle bracelet. What are you doing asks Adam. Just checking says Victor. Happy now says Adam? Just making sure it was working says Victor. You are really reaching says Adam just think about it Victor. In my present condition and before you say it, nobody is helping me. You can check the security logs. The only people whoever come to visit are Rafe and Heather. And the only person I've ever had to clear was a doctor for your wife adds Adam. Would you have just rather I'd ignored her cries for help he continues? As long as you are not responsible for those cries says Victor. You know Victor someday the truth is going to come out and when it does, I'm going to want an apology says Adam. Victor looks thoughtfully around the room and says all right. And Adam just sighs as he leaves. Nikki brings Ashley some tea and Ashley says every where she turns in this house she has Sabrina's ghost. Nikki tells her it's not Sabrina's ghost but the person behind all of this wants her to think that. Ashley says and you think that person could be Adam? Nikki tells Ashley she absolutely does. She also tells Ashley once Victor proves that all this madness will stop. It's about this time that Estella and Rafe show up. Rafe goes to Adam's room to talk to him and Rafe vows to clear Estella's name and he is going to get the person who has done this to her. It's hard to tell from Adam's reaction if he's worried or not. Rafe tells Adam he can no longer represent him since he will now be representing his Aunt Estella and it would conflict of interest. Adam says that's too bad. Adam tells Rafe there is a lot of evidence against Estella. Rafe says are you kidding there are holes in this case big time. Adam says you really think so. Rafe tells Adam he's told him before he thought someone at this ranch was setting Estella up and when he finds out who they are going to pay. It really appears that Adam has set up Estella or somebody has but for now Rafe has to concentrate on helping his Aunt prove her innocence so Adam needs a new attorney. Ashley says she thought this was finally over when Estella moved out. Victor assures her that everything is fine now that Estella has been put in jail all she has to worry about is her and the baby. Ashley says the only thing that matters is her baby and Victor says yes. As I said earlier Cane has agreed to take a second DNA test which is really the third. Nina had a fit when they discovered sandbags in the coffin and no body at all. Paul had ask them to do a DNA test it showed there had never been a body in the coffin. So the mystery continues to build. Jill, Katherine and Nina have a long discussion about the need for this test and what it would do to Cane and Nina doesn't care what it does to Cane. She is hell bent on proving he is an impostor and she is saying she wants to find out if Phillip has the disease her son could "possibly" have. They are not sure he has any disease yet.
Nikki meets up with Paul and is kicking herself for getting involved. She wants to help Estella. Paul reminds her that she cares about Ashely and Victor and she was just being kind and that was just her. Nikki says if you only knew how worried he was about losing Ashley and that baby. Paul says he does know and that helps Nikki not be so angry at him. Nikki says yes not that he deserves it. Nikki tries to get out of him what he's working on now and he won't tell her. He's working on the Phillip case with Nina and trying to figure out why nobody was in that coffin. He's also still working on Mary Jane but that wasn't mentioned today either. Billy was full of himself today. He was following Mac around like a bloodhound and gave the waitress at the coffeehouse money to make the patio private just for them. He convinces her just for one night to take down the wall since she thinks it's better they not see each other. They talked about her being prom queen and Mac tells Billy they both know it was more about Brittney not being prom queen than Mac being elected prom queen. Billy tells her he remembers seeing her dancing for the first time that night and she said it was awful doing that in front of everyone. Billy wants to know if she has gotten over that and she says no. He's going to put money in the jukebox so they can dance on the patio but Mac cuts that off. Then they do dance and of course they get close and Billy tries to kiss her and she stops him and tells him that they can't go back and he says he knows and then he says he should get going. Mac agrees but both look like love starved animals as he exits and she seems to wish he wasn't leaving. Billy is still acting like a love sick cow where Mac is concerned. It didn't appear today that he is going to ever grow up, nor is he going to step up to the plate like Cane did and take responsibility for his baby by being with her Mother as he promised Chloe to do at their wedding. This is a snoozer storyline for me so for those of you in love with a Billy and Mac reunion storyline forgive me for not having more information for you. This was just plain boring today. I did forget to mention that Mac's phone rang non-stop and it was Billy. Cane notices this and she wants to know why he's there so late and he's waiting for an electrician at the bar. She offers to stay so he can go home to Lily but he insists she take the night off and have a good time. Cane is still on the phone at this time trying to get a hold of Langley/Phillip he says he's left here holding the bag by himself but Langley still don't answer. Meantime, Katherine breaks the bad news to Jill that there was no body in the coffin they dug up that was supposed to be Phillip's body. When Nina and Paul get there Nina says they can not rely on the old tests and now Cane has to have a new test and if Jill don't ask him she will ask Cane herself. Nina also says she will not allow some con artist to rob her son of his birth right. But Jill does agree to ask him as I told you earlier. Paul tells them he ordered a second test for DNA on the casket but that test if negative because there was never any body in that casket at all. They were all stunned to hear that news and based on that, Jill goes to Cane and asks for another DNA test and he says no problem he will do it first thing in the morning. Lily tells Cane it doesn't matter if he's a Chancellor at all to her. And nothing will change. But Cane is not foolish he knows he could loose everything including Lily for whatever his part was in all of this masquerade. Katherine says there was never a public viewing that she was aware of and Jill says or a private one that she knows of. Nina says all she knows is she remembers seeing Philip in that hospital bed and she could barely get through that. Katherine says they should have done more at the time, not Nina she was just a teenager. Katherine also says she has heard of people stealing bodies for organs or the cadaver but Nina adds you never think it will happen to someone you love. Katherine tells Nina she should be prepared to be wrong. Nina tells her she should be ready for the opposite since they found out Violet Montgomery wasn't even in town to take the baby. Maybe someone else did says Katherine. Maybe there was no switch says Nina and that would mean that Phillip is Jill's son. Katherine admits her memory is fuzzy and Nina reminds her that she was in a drunken stupor at the time and nearly blacked out. Isn't it possible that the baby switch was in your head and your mind just ran with it says Nina. Well you do give a lot of weight to the power of suggestion. Doesn't it seem like a coincidence that you remember this baby switch when you were so desperate to believe this stranger was family? Oh come on says Katherine, you make me sound like a desperate old woman. Not desperate old woman says Nina just heartbroken you and Jill both Because you know you both could have done more to prevent Phillip's death and you didn't. Are you trying to tell me that Cane was faking his own DNA all this time plus poor Phillip's?The next thing you will be telling me is that he's responsible for Phillip's body not being in the casket. All Cane has to do is take another test and if refuses then I have my answer says Nina. About this time Jill walks in and adds that she won't have to worry about Cane he's agreed to take the test and once he does he'll be vindicated again. But then it shows Cane taking the blood out of the freezer he has many tubes. So of course he can switch them around and be Phillip for as long as he needs to be but is he going to do it one more time to help out Langley/Phillip or will he finally just tell the truth? NEXT ON THE YOUNG AND THE RESTLESS: Just give it to me says Adam to Dr. Taylor. I can just guess what you are planning to do with it says Dr. Taylor to Adam, you must be out of your mind. First one in the shower gets to pick the new house says Nick to Sharon and she gets a big smile on her face and says Oh and she moves quickly like she's getting out of bed first to get to the shower. Victor tells Adam that he told him he was going to have Dr. Donahue examine his eyes. Adam says he's not going to stand for this. Victor looks perplexed.
