Greased up on a Pole

January 28th - February 1st, 2008

Ahh yes, thankfully this week we moved from the bitter January month of cold, unrequited love, to the February month of warm, affectionately devoted passion...or at least that was the case in the Newman household.

As Victoria's eye's fluttered open early Monday morning, we all rejoiced that our favorite femme was back to consciousness, with only mild slurring and confusion. The schmoopiness ensued as JT and Nicki eagerly greeted the confused Victoria, and quickly introduced her to the new baby, Reed. Although Vick was a bit let down that she couldn't even remember her own child's birth, it didn't stop her from planning an immediate wedding to JT and attempting to repair Victor and Nicki's bitter divorce. What a trooper! 

Meanwhile, major business reorganization was happening all over town. After suffering a mild stroke, Mrs. Chancellor has decided to step-down from her position as CEO of Jabot - leaving Jill to fill some very large alcoholic shoes...and although Gloria was positively persistent about fulfilling the Vice CEO position, Jill politely declined before admitting that Gloria's use of leopard and zebra print in everyday outfits is just too fabulous and that she is secretly jealous (you know it's true). Soon after, Mrs. C turned over NVP to a starry-eyed Nicki Newman. 

THEN, after being fired like a cad from his own father, Nicholas, Phyllis and Jack came to an affable agreement that they should start some sort of "creative" business deal...or something. It was very vague...but when you're that rich and that educated, you could pretty much crap on a cracker, call it "Crapker" and people will still buy it...BUT HERE I AM CREATING THAT GREAT IDEA AND I GET NOTHING!!

Anyway, Amber's days were looking brighter (despite the fact that Cane gave her an official "I don't love you," speech), as Mrs. Chancellor and Nicki offered her a lofty position with NVP, BUT THE BITCH DECLINED, stating that she is trying to stay away from Cane...WTF, Amber?! Either way, there she is, serving lattes just minutes later down at Crimson Lights and Jack comes up to order and sees her fashion designs spread out over the counter...while she fails to notice, Jack clearly saw something special in our favorite sneaky slut...insinuating that she will also be involved in something..."creative"...or something.

And Jeffery is INSISTING to move into the Abbot Mansion, and as Gloria has also turned greedier than ever - it seems that they will soon be roomies with Jack, Sharon, and Noah. I can't wait till Sharon gets pissed because Jeffery leaves the toilet seat up; Noah gets caught wearing Gloria's favorite leopard bra; and Jack's favorite "World Greatest Step-Dad That is Now Married to My Ex-Step-Son's Wife" Mug goes mysteriously missing - HILARITY IS SURE TO ENSUE! 

And despite Brad's pushing and prodding (things he learned back in the Seals), he was turned down for a promotion by BOTH Neil AND Victor. Booooo-hoooo. But then Nicki made a flippant comment that he come work for her...greased up on a pole is more like it.

That's about it dudes...check out next week's episode: "WHO ATE ALL THE RED CAVIAR?"

OH YEAH! and CONGRATULATIONS are in order to Detective Maggie and Karen for their sweeping victory in the "Hottest Up and Coming Couple" Poll last month. However, the bottom clip is posted for Amanda, who claims there are never enough wet t-shirt contests in Genoa City...ENJOY!
