Plots-a-Poppin!

 It's Victor's fault: Vicki responds to Billy's confession

 Your Daddy Made Me Do It- There's a lot of finger pointing going on  in Genoa City. On recent installments of Y&R,  Billy and Kevin are confessing it all and putting the blame where it belongs: on Victor Newman! After Victoria finishes freaking out, she rightly guesses who blackmailed her beloved Billy. Kevin simultaneously comes clean to Chloe, claiming that his quest to save little Delia began with good intentions. How will this all turn out? I'm waiting for another huge daddy-daughter blow-out between Vicki and Victor. Naturally, Chloe will probably leave Kevin and there will be no kitchy holiday wedding. Yay!
 
Indecent ProposalThe Young and the Restless folks have climbed on the indecent proposal bandwagon. Although this is a different breed of indecent proposal, I think Neil Winters takes the prize for poor planning. While we truly appreciate the gentleman in Neil that wanted to be a standup guy and make Sophia and honest woman, we don't appreciate Neil's lack of enthusiasm when Sophia says yes. Of course, as loyal soap followers, we can see through the soap opera tunnel of time and surmise what this all means-- Neil has another divorce in his future.


As much as I hate to say it, Neil's character went downhill once he had an affair with Tyra some time ago. Now that affair #2 has produced a true-to-life Winters heir, it's hard to buy the "aw shucks, I'm a good guy after all" routine. Memo to Neil:  join the club with Billy, Victor, and Jack. Be a good "baby daddy" and move on...'cause as soon as you're happy, we all know Drucilla will come back from the dead and ruin it for you.


Indecent Proposal II- In an unexpected plot twist, The Bold and the Beautiful's Pam gets dumped by here fiancee. Pam wastes no time and gets back in the game by agreeing to steal Forrester designs in exchange for the affections of Nick, her nautical "Prince Charming." This was too funny, especially when Pam popped up in the steam room. What an awkward surprise for an unsuspecting Nick! Catch a glimpse of the couple's hilarity here.

Thanks for the Memories- If you know the history of B&B,  you know "design stealing schemes" are nothing new. This kind of arc has been done multiple times originating with devious deeds at the Spectra fashion house. Hats off to the writers for giving us a fresh and funny look at the art of thievery!
