The Kidnapping Plot Gone Wrong
Nikki (Melody Thomas Scott) felt Victor (Eric Braeden) went too far when he plotted a kidnapping involving Jack (Peter Bergman). He enlisted Patty Williams (Stacy Haiduk) to help keep Jack company. He had no idea that the two would end up in bed.
However, there are still questions about what really happened on that yacht. Jack claimed that he was drugged. Patty felt like there was something in the drinks and foods, as they didn’t act like themselves. Yet, she still thought it was a magical night.
Nikki was disturbed to learn what happened. She realized the lengths to which Victor would go to get revenge on his archenemy. In that moment, she finally had had enough of her conniving and scheming husband.
Victor’s Unforgiving Nature
For months, Nikki and Victor’s marriage has been on shaky ground. Victor told her that she could leave the Newman Ranch and never return. When she finally took him up on his offer, he refused to forgive her.
Nikki tried to make a truce and move past their old wounds. Victor’s stubbornness led him to refuse to give up his thirst for revenge, especially when it came to Jack. This caused him to push Nikki out of his life. Yet, Victor still thinks that she’s in the wrong.
The Aftermath & Fallout
Once again, the couple came to verbal blows on Friday’s episode. Following their heated confrontation over Victor’s schemes, Victor reminded Nikki that she’s free to leave him at any time. At this point, he doesn’t care whether she comes home to him.
Nikki has been staying at the GCAC, and Victor held a grudge over it. Nikki might finally reach her breaking point with Victor. Their once-solid marriage has reached a fragile, delicate place.
Will Nikki and Victor reconcile their marriage? Or are they beyond the point of no return? They are about to join forces to save their son, Nick (Joshua Morrow). That may help repair their relationship. Unless it’s too late for Genoa City’s golden couple.
