What to Watch Next Week
While Nikki and Victor can’t get over their own issues to reunite, there are dramatic and dangerous things happening in the rest of the town. For instance, Matt Clark isn’t just alive he resurfaces back in Genoa City.
He just can’t stay away from his enemies. The question is who he’ll target first. It could be Sienna, who left him to die in the Las Vegas desert. He still has it out for Noah (Lucas Adams, who recently talked to Soap Hub), who slept with his wife. And of course, there are his oldest rivals, Sharon and Nick. Who could it be?
Nikki has a confrontation with Lily. Somebody must have told Nikki about Victor’s deal with Lily. She pretends to be kidnapped, she gets Chancellor. Victor knew how his wife felt about Katherine’s company and he was willing to give it away — to the person they used and then betrayed for Chancellor the first time. If Nikki is truly feeling betrayed, then Lily should just tell her that now they were even.
Lily will also deal with Malcolm and Cane. Meanwhile, Claire is suddenly all-in on Holden now that she knows more about his past and what’s he is currently struggling with. In other news, look for a week that pits Christine against Phyllis. And Adam can’t outrun his Vegas interactions with Riza. Chelsea wants to know specifics.
