Victor’s Deadly Proposition

Genoa City thrives on power plays, but Victor Newman’s latest move against Cain Ashby cuts deeper than ever before. On Thursday, Victor corners Cain with an ultimatum. At stake? His family’s tainted past, his hunger to be seen as Genoa City’s new titan, and the empty ache of a family he can’t seem to win back.

Victor demands Cain surrender his “secret weapon”—a powerful piece of leverage that could cripple corporations across the city. Cain refuses, but Victor strikes where it hurts most. He dangles a possibility Cain can’t ignore: a reunion with Lily and the twins. Not out of sentiment, but as a strategic bargain.

If Cain complies, Victor promises influence, media cleanup, and a carefully orchestrated redemption campaign. If he resists, Victor threatens to expose Cain’s father’s scandalous past, a revelation that could shatter Cain’s empire overnight.

Cain’s Impossible Dilemma

Cain is trapped between two futures. Hand Victor his weapon and risk becoming a puppet in the Newman empire—or keep fighting, risking scandal, isolation, and the permanent loss of Lily and the children.

Victor doesn’t just want control. He wants recognition. He demands Cain admit that Newman power still defines Genoa City. It’s a battle of pride versus survival, and even Cain’s iron will trembles under the weight.

Behind closed doors, Cain plots a dangerous middle ground. He buys time, re-encrypts his leverage, and begins quietly working his way back into Lily’s orbit through community outreach. For him, power may not be enough anymore—family might finally be worth the cost.

Billy’s Revenge Obsession

Meanwhile, Billy Abbott sharpens his sights on Cain with a dangerous obsession. He frames his pursuit as justice, but his fixation has all the signs of an addiction. Reckless moves, shady alliances, and an emotional ultimatum aimed at Sally Spectra.

Billy wants Sally by his side, but his plea comes with strings attached: join his war against Cain, or walk away. For Sally, it’s less a choice of love and more an ultimatum of self-destruction.

Sally’s Crossroads

Sally sees the danger clearly. Billy’s obsession threatens not just her heart, but her career and reputation. Yet her feelings linger, remembering the rare moments when Billy truly loved selflessly. Torn between love and survival, she faces her own boundary: she can’t be Billy’s accomplice in revenge.

Her only hope is to push back—if Billy wants her, he must let go of vengeance. Anything less, and Sally risks losing everything she’s rebuilt.
