Key Takeaways

  • Stephanie, Lily, and Nate talk at Society.
  • Stephanie approaches Nate with a mysterious special project.
  • Nate could be weighing a possible return to medicine.

Scenes from Genoa City

On Friday, Society is the place where Stephanie (Vivica A. Fox), Lily (Christel Khalil), and Nate (Sean Dominic) talk. At some point during Friday’s episode, Stephanie will try to recruit Nate for a special project. This could be about something related to the medical field. After all, Stephanie is now the chief of staff of Genoa City Memorial. Nate is the one who floated her name to some of his contacts, and she ended up taking the job. He had her recruited, and now, turnabout’s fair play.

Lately, people have been talking to Nate about his days as a doctor. They have asked him whether he missed being a surgeon. And if he ever wants to tap back into his medical side. It feels like he has been contemplating it, even though he keeps saying how much he enjoys working alongside his family at Winters.

But he had that deep conversation with Audra (Zuleyka Silver) about returning to medicine. And when he recently visited Nikki (Melody Thomas Scott, who hints Nikki may push Victor away during her character’s medical crisis) in her room at the GCAC, she said she wanted him to do the surgery to remove the mass from her optic nerve. That she trusted. him with her life. And Victoria read Nate in on what was going on with her mom.

So this special project of Stephanie’s — could it have something to do with the hospital or something medically related? Maybe there’s a way Nate can exercise both his corporate and medical sides at the same time.
