What's been happening on The Y&R the past few weeks?

Question

I have a new job and have missed it.

Answer 1

Monday, November 05, 2007
Kay and Cane were relieved to learn from an official with the National Institute of Standards and Technology that the Clear Springs parking structure did not collapse due to construction flaws. "Can you tell us how this happened?" queried Kay. The official said they would have to wait for the final report to come out.

Save for a few homes, Neil and David found out that most of the new buildings at Clear Springs may not be salvageable. Since seismic activity was ruled out, David wondered if sabotage caused the explosion. Neil noted that no evidence of bombing was found.

Victor vowed to Jack that he will "destroy" whoever is responsible for the Clear Springs disaster. The men then watched a news bulletin on TV, where a reporter announced, "The collapse of the garage and casino that killed one construction official and injured several people, was found to be caused by natural gas drillings several miles outside the town of Clear Springs." The reporter revealed that the owner of the drilling team was Victor, who was shocked by the findings. Jack blasted Newman for causing the catastrophe, however Vic argued, "My company followed all safety and regulatory recommendations. It was an accident."

Nick and Sharon worried about Noah's mental state. Sharon explained that their son didn't want to rent movies, eat or talk to friends. Nick declared that Noah will "be fine" but Sharon said she would contact a therapist. Neil called Nick with news that his father's drilling team caused the explosion. Neil also explained that Victor used a subsidiary company for the drilling project, so Newman Enterprises was actually not involved.

Katherine and Cane were stunned to find out that Victor was responsible for the explosion. "Our friends and my crew are in the hospital because he wanted to make his wife pay," seethed Cane.

At the hospital, David gave Nikki an update on the explosion. Nikki became very upset that Victor's drive to ruin her spa project had led to such tragedy. Nikki confronted Victor and charged, "If your company put Victoria in that hospital bed, I will never, ever forgive you. I pray to God for your sake that you had nothing to do with it." Victor was infuriated by the comment and Nikki stormed off. Kay later arrived and comforted an emotional Nikki, while Victor sat at Victoria's beside. "I'd give anything to see you open your eyes," he whispered.

Jack told Sharon that Victor "ought to fry." ... J.T. continued to talk to a comatose Victoria.... Noah only wanted to play the same video game over and over.... Nick assured his father that he knew Victor didn't deliberately cause the explosion.... Kay told Cane that Chancellor Industries will sue Victor.... Victor refused to release a statement. Alone in his office, a tormented Vic slumped in his chair.

While J.T. sat at Victoria's bedside, Colleen came by for a visit. Brad later showed up and whispered to Victoria, "I hope that baby has your smile." J.T. seemed bothered by Brad's presence and pointed out that the hospital didn't want Victoria to have too many visitors. Colleen got the hint and tried to get her dad to leave with her for some coffee but Brad declined. Colleen reluctantly left the two men alone. Brad brought some of Victoria's favorite rock CDs but J.T. said he's been playing jazz music. "I know you mean well," J.T. replied. "I need to be alone with Victoria right now." Brad claimed he understood and left.

Neil informed Victor that his miners followed "every safety regulation and then some" when drilling but an electrical spark ignited "a huge pocket of displaced methane." Later, Victor called Neil and Karen into his office and announced he wanted to make a public statement. "I will only say this once," Victor insisted. "I'm not going to answer any questions." Karen gathered a few reporters and Victor started with, "The explosion at Clear Springs has affected this state, this community and me personally deeply." He went on to explain that a thorough investigation would be made and that his heart went out to those affected. The reporters tired to ask questions but Victor cut them off and walked away.

Sharon urged Jack not to have a public confrontation with Victor. "I'm not making any promises," Jack grumbled. He later approached Heather and Maggie to reveal his suspicions that Victor killed Ji Min. When Maggie reminded that they needed evidence, Jack suggested they test the hair of Victor's dog to see if it matches the strands found on Ji Min's body. "No judge would issue the warrant," declared Heather, which miffed Jack. He then stealthily obtained a sample of Zapato's hair (during a testy encounter with Victor). Jack presented the fur to Maggie, who said it was inadmissible because it was collected by a civilian. Jack pushed the lady cop to test it anyway but she threw it in the garbage.

Neil told Lily what caused the Clear Springs collapse and she was relieved that Cane wasn't responsible. Neil seemed bothered by her concern and Lily assured, "We're just friends." Lily later ran into the Aussie hunk at Crimson Lights and said she was happy that Chancellor Industries wasn't to blame for the disaster. Before Lily departed, she kissed Cane on his cheek and he seemed visibly touched by the gesture.

Colleen hoped Brad would be the father of Victoria's baby.... Noah told Sharon that he had a nightmare but didn't want to talk about it.... Brad blasted Victor for causing the Clear Springs explosion and injuring Victoria.... Everyone was buzzing about Enrique Iglesias's appearance at Indigo for that night; Lily wanted to invite Cane but Heather beat her to it.... Victor lamented to Victoria that he felt "an enormous sense of guilt and remorse" for his actions.

Neil assured Karen that when they attend the Enrique Igelsias concert at his club, Lily and Devon would behave better towards her.

Paul was concerned when Maggie's abdomen area was sore (where she was shot by Sheila). Maggie opined that it's probably from all the crawling around she did inside the collapsed parking structure. Paul wanted to take her to the ER, but Maggie refused to miss the concert.

Lauren wanted to stay home instead of going to the concert but Michael thought it would be better for her to get out. "I just don't wanna see you lock yourself away," he fretted. It took some more cajoling and Lauren finally gave in.

Lily and Colleen showed up at Indigo and Lily was depressed to see Cane and Heather. Devon arrived with Roxanne. When Lily confirmed she was going to run for student government, Karen offered to help her campaign.

Amber and Daniel had trouble luring Kevin away to the concert. Kev said he had a business to run (Crimson Lights), besides his mind was on Jana anyway. Amber and Daniel finally convinced him to come. The pals showed up at Indigo and Daniel was enthralled with Heather. He reminded himself, however, that he hates her (for putting his mom in prison). Kevin confronted Heather and pointed out that Jana should be freed because she was sick and didn't know what she was doing. Ms. Stevens suggested that Kevin hire a good lawyer to prove his case.

Neil was upset to see Daniel at the club and wanted to throw him out. Lily assured her dad that it was okay. "Daniel doesn't bother me anymore," she declared. Lily then pretended she needed to talk to Roxanne about studies. When the ladies were alone, she asked if Roxanne genuinely liked Devon. "I've dated a lot of losers, and I could actually see myself staying with him for more than a week," answered Rox. Cane later stopped by to say hi to Lily and she tried to maintain a calm exterior. Neil observed that his daughter was upset and asked if it was over Cane. Lily once again insisted that she and the Aussie are just friends but Neil didn't buy it. He also advised that Cane "is way, way too old for you."

Paul and Maggie were glad to see Michael and Lauren at Indigo. While Lauren was on her cell to Gloria, Paul mentioned to Michael that Victor's drilling caused the explosion. Baldwin became upset but was determined to keep the news from his wife, at least for tonight. Michael angrily confronted Neil who said, "This isn't the place."

Paul confirmed his lunch with Heather for the next day and Maggie asked if he was going to confess that he's her father. "I think it's time she finally knew the truth," Paul affirmed. Meanwhile, Cane asked Heather how she knows Paul, and she explained that he is an old friend of her mother's. While trying to make a cell phone call, Heather eavesdropped on Paul, Lauren and Michael discussing Sheila. "What's a little kidnapping for the better good, right?" Paul said to his co-conspirators. "If I had to do it all over again, I would make sure that Sheila Carter never escaped." Heather returned to Cane in utter shock but didn't reveal what she overheard.

Everyone cuddled and/or exchanged looks as Enrique Iglesias performed.

Thursday, November 08, 2007
After the Enrique Iglesias concert, Neil told Karen that his employee who usually closes up the club went home sick so he would have to stay late. Karen offered to keep him company. Lily asked her dad if he wanted to get something to eat after closing but immediately changed her mind when he mentioned that Karen was helping him too. Rude, Lily, rude.

Heather tried to enjoy the rest of the evening with Cane but was distracted by what she previously heard (Paul, Lauren and Michael talking about imprisoning Sheila). Cane observed her moodiness and Heather asked hypothetically what she should do if a very good friend committed a bad crime. Cane surmised that as assistant district attorney, she had a responsibility to do the right thing. Cane then drove his date home. Heather asked if he wanted to come up for coffee. Cane declined, citing crazy hours with the Clear Springs cleanup and they shared a quick smooch (uh, Heather, pick up a copy of He's Just Not That Into You... pronto).

Lauren and Michael asked Paul and Maggie back to their place for coffee (if this had been during the Swinging '70s, that invitation would have been suspicious). The quartet headed to the Baldwin home, where Lauren again started exhibiting nervousness. "I'm a total mess these days," she lamented "I'm freezing all the time ... I can't sleep." Co-Clear Springs survivor Maggie agreed that she was experiencing the same things and Paul insisted that they would all eventually "be normal" again. Everyone discussed sleep-inducing tips like counting sheep, watching infomercials, chamomile tea, hot baths, warm milk and watching Noah play video games (okay, that last one wasn't in there). Suddenly, Lauren had another panic attack. Michael gave his wife her anti-anxiety meds and she calmed down. Paul and Maggie revealed that an explosion caused the collapse and Lauren became upset to learn that Victor's drilling company was the cause. Michael vowed Newman would pay (take a number, Mike).

Victor continued to be haunted by his role in the Clear Springs disaster.... Beautiful, smart, classy, rich, girl-with-a-thousand-friends Lily was feeling lonely and sought companionship and comfort from Colleen and Adrian.... Neil and Karen made love (guess it was a good thing that his daughter didn't stick around after all).... Heather called her secretary and said, "When you get in tomorrow morning, pull all the files we have on Sheila Carter." Let's hope she was leaving a voicemail and not calling the poor girl at that late of an hour.... Cane called Lily with an answer to a music question that was bugging her earlier (and, lookie there, her spirits suddenly picked up)....

J.T. and Nikki maintained their vigil at Victoria's bedside. They became alarmed when one of her monitors started beeping. "The machines registered an elevated blood pressure reading," explained a nurse, who determined that there was a malfunction and deemed the patient's stats as normal. Colleen and Adrian showed up for a visit and after a few minutes, J.T. walked them out. As Nikki sat with Victoria, Victor arrived to see how their daughter was doing. J.T. noticed that Victoria's hands were swollen and called for a doctor. Dr. Ryan confirmed that her blood pressure was up and ordered immediate tests. Once the physician left, Victor declared, "I am going to call every specialist in the world if it takes that to get Victoria better

At prison, Jana again surmised that Jack convinced his dad to disinherit Gloria. "That was never proven," Phyllis pointed out. She then left for her work-release; Jana made an appointment with the chaplain who was counseling John. During her time with Rev. Anderson, Jana learned that John had a confidante in prison by the name of Todd. Jana passed the name to Kevin, who tipped off Gloria.

Nick showed up at the hospital to find out from his parents and J.T. that there was concern about Victoria's spiking blood pressure. Dr. Ryan said he wanted to make sure "there's no swelling or bleeding" causing the elevation. Victor remembered a line from a poem ("Stars that shine in heaven so bright keep my children safe tonight) that he used to recite while tucking his kids in. J.T. noted that he heard Victoria say that poem every night. Nick wondered if Brad should be notified about Victoria's precarious situation but Nikki wanted to wait for test results to come back. Another doctor told the Newman family and J.T. that Victoria's tests came back normal so there was more investigating to do.

A nervous Paul confirmed with Maggie that he planned to tell Heather that she's his daughter — today (yeah, Paul, you're only 20-something years overdue). Maggie jokingly suggested that he send a singing telegram to do the job (hey, is Enrique Iglesias still in town?).

Under the guise of tying up loose ends with William's files, Heather showed up at Lauren's place and questioned Mrs. Baldwin about shooting Sheila. "You were a hero," Heather declared and started asking about the cage Sheila had built in the warehouse. Before Heather could get very far, Michael came in and stopped the questioning. "That is not a topic my wife is comfortable talking about," he growled and escorted Heather to the door. Michael was suspicious of Heather's motives, then told Lauren that he was working on Phyllis's appeal. Next, nosy Heather asked Maggie about Sheila and the lady copy recalled how she was shot by the psycho (with flashbacks playing, of course).

At Newman Enterprises, Phyllis advised Jack not to "kick Victor when he's down." Jack said he won't, but added that Victor deserves whatever fate befalls him (Karma, meet Jack). Phyllis asked Jack if he had anything to do with Gloria getting getting cut out of John's will. "My father wrote that will," Jack insisted, "I guess he finally saw things my way." Heather arrived to continued her quest with Phyllis, who recounted her own horrifying ordeal (more flashbacks). After Heather left, Jack told Phyllis that a man named Todd called for her, but Phyllis said she didn't need the message after all. Phyllis was surprised when Lauren showed up at Newman Enterprises. Turned out she was volunteering with the Clear Springs relief effort. Michael later arrived and told Phyllis that "your appeal is going to be reconsidered by the appellate court." Color Phyllis thrilled.

Kevin told Gloria that someone else had contacted good ol' Todd. "Apparently, he's pretty popular lately," Kev noted.

Paul met with Heather and explained how he got a girl pregnant when he was young and "we both decided that the best thing for the child would be if she was raised without me." It was hard to tell if Heather was catching on or not, but Paul finally announced, "Heather... you're my daughter." Close-up on Heather's stunned expression.

The show opened with a slow pan over the Clear Springs disaster site. In the collapsed casino's parking garage, amidst the wrecked cars and piles of rubble and smoke, an unconscious Sharon suddenly opened her eyes and gasped.

Meanwhile, at the prison, Phyllis watched the news in horror as it reported the accident. She frantically called Nicholas to see if he was okay, and of course, got the machine.

At Clear Springs, an injured Nick also awakened in the rubble and called out to other survivors. When he heard Jack calling to him, Nick pushed some debris out of the way so that Jack could move. Both men called for Sharon. They found her and tried to help her stand up, but she screamed in agony. "What happened here?" she wondered. "Chicken Little, I don't know, I think the sky fell in," Jack cracked, but Sharon wasn't in a joking mood. Jack constructed a homemade brace for her leg by tying boards around it. Jack noted that they needed to escape if they wanted to survive. The trio dug around and found their cell phones, aspirin and bandages. The men began to argue over which way they should head out, but were interrupted when the ceiling caved in some more. They both lifted Sharon to her feet so they could start moving out of danger, but they couldn't find an escape route. Sharon feared that the structure was too unstable for even a rescue team to search for them.

A panicked Nikki called Victor and filled him in on the event. She informed him that Nick isn't answering his cell phone. Victor urged her to get away from the building, but she refused to leave without their son. Victor then got a call from Phyllis, asking if he heard from Nick. He told her that he hadn't, but that he was heading to Clear Springs to check everything out. He promised to have Nick call her right away once they found him. After, Jana tried to comfort Phyllis by having her imagine Nick enjoying an activity that made him happy.... David made emergency phone calls.... Nikki again spoke with Victor. He warned her that this could be sabotage.... A desperate Phyllis called Sharon and Jack also got their voice mail systems. Phyll was upset when the prison refused to let her leave to check out the scene.

Nikki and David checked around some of the Clear Springs establishments to see if Nick, Sharon and Jack had been at them. Victor then called and they discussed how they hadn't heard from Victoria, either. He noted that the phone systems were overloaded because so many people were making calls. David tried to comfort her by assuring her that her kids would be okay.

In the garage, Nick thought he felt fresh air. While Jack went to investigate it, Nick tried to help an injured Sharon. Jack returned and said that he also felt the breeze, but couldn't tell where it was coming from. He also noted that the three of them wouldn't be able to crawl through the passageway without it collapsing. All three volunteered to stay behind. They finally drew straws and Jack was the loser. Sharon reminded him how much she loves him and they kissed. Nick promised to come back for Jack, but Jack didn't want him to return if it was too dangerous. Nick refused to let Jack be the only hero. He then thanked his former stepfather for making him the man he is. The men helped Sharon through the opening, and then Sharon followed. Jack called after them, assuring them that he'd be okay.

At Newman, Victor and Neil speculated about what might have caused the disaster. Neil also wondered if it was sabotage.... Phyllis called Daniel and told him that she needed to get out of the prison. He was shocked when she filled him in on the accident. Daniel promised to check out Clear Springs for her.... Neil informed Brad about Clear Springs. They agreed to drive up there together. Before they left, Brad left Sharon a message pleading with her to call him. As they rode to the site, Brad called Nikki. Nikki, who was beside herself, replied that she hadn't heard from Sharon, Jack or Nick. She recounted how horrible it had been seeing the collapse, and began to cry. After Brad hung up, Neil chastised him for asking Nikki about Sharon when she already had Nick to worry about. Brad blasted Neil for giving him an attitude.... Phyllis also continued to leave frantic messages for Nick, Jack and Sharon.

Jack struggled to push through the rubble, but was having difficulties breathing.... David found Nikki and reported that someone was coming out of the garage: it was Nick and Sharon. As the authorities helped them, Nick informed them that Jack was still down there. Nikki and David arrived at the scene, and she was overjoyed to see that her son was okay. Their happiness was short-lived, though, when a crew member informed them that Noah is also trapped down there. Nick and Sharon understandably freaked out.... Underneath the debris, Noah was unconscious.
Tuesday, October 23, 2007
At the Clear Springs disaster site, a concerned Victor finally arrived. Nicholas wanted to go back into the rubble to search for Noah, but Victor urged him not to. An injured Sharon refused to get medical help until they knew Noah was okay. In jail, Phyllis was thrilled when Nick called her, but he sadly informed her that Noah and Jack were still trapped.

Jack attempted to crawl through the debris, but was coughing and gasping. After speaking with Phyllis, Nick told the rescue crew that Jack was still down there. Brad and Neil arrived and planned to help search for Victoria, whom no one had heard from. Victor suggested that he and Nikki talk to the incident commander.... Nick tried to keep Sharon from falling apart. Sharon feared that she'd lose another child and her husband. She recalled that her last conversation with Noah had been about something trivial.... Neil informed the press that Jack volunteered to stay behind while Nick and Sharon escaped.

Noah was with Paul, Maggie and Lauren. Noah complained that his ribs hurt, and Maggie concluded that they were broken. Paul promised them that he'd get them out, however, Lauren began to have a panic attack. Paul managed to dig through an opening and crawled through. Noah tried to joke around, but Lauren found no humor in the situation. She blamed herself for their predicament since they'd been in her store. The four continued to root around until they came across a pile of what looked like bodies. They weren't — they were actually mannequins from the destroyed Fenmore's, but still pretty creepy. Thankfully, none came to life like Kim Cattrall. Maggie kept Noah calm and gave him the juice box she had with her.

Back in Genoa City, Michael answered his phone. It was Lauren, who managed to reach him, but their connection was poor. She managed to tell him that they were trapped, but was cut off after she said that she loves him. Michael called Victor to find out what was happening. Victor replied that they don't know what caused the disaster, but he promised to give Michael an update on Lauren's situation. A concerned Gloria joined Michael to wait for news.... Phyllis and Jana watched news of the disaster in jail. A frustrated Phyllis threw a chair, but Jana took the blame when the guard came in.

Jack made some progress as he pushed his way through the debris, but he collapsed, gasping for air.

Paul wanted to see if he could light something so they could see better, but Lauren warned him that there had been problems with methane during the construction. Paul found a flashlight, but Noah's condition began to deteriorate. Lauren continued to panic, but Paul managed to comfort her.

Michael, Gloria and Kevin arrived at Clear Springs. "Are you sure it's going to be all right?" Gloria asked Michael. "No, no it won't," Michael replied, noting that Lauren suffers from claustrophobia. Gloria wanted to stay hopeful and said that when Lauren got out, she'd treat her daughter-in-law to a day at the spa. Michael became angry, blaming the NVP spa project for kicking off Clear Springs.... Kevin called Jana at the jail and said that he was working on a Web site listing survivors. Phyllis now had Lauren to worry about, and yelled at an inmate when she switched off the news.

Underground, Lauren shrieked when part of the roof fell in. Paul suggested she think about something positive. Lauren thought about Michael and ... Gloria. "I said think about happy times," Paul joked. "I see you," Lauren added. "My knight in shining armor." Once she felt better, Lauren joined Maggie in caring for Noah. Just then, one of the rescue workers managed to contact them.

In slow motion, the rescue crew pulled out Maggie, then Noah on a stretcher. Sharon, Nick, Nikki and Victor went to be with Noah, as Michael, Kevin and Gloria hopefully looked on. Finally, Lauren and Paul emerged; Lauren, her husband and in-laws engaged in a group hug. Paul brought a shaken Maggie water and told her he was glad he'd been stuck with her. Maggie suggested they go to the hospital, but he wanted to stick around and help out. "My hero," Maggie cooed. Michael and Lauren were enjoying being together again, but then Lauren asked about Amber's whereabouts. Daniel frantically called her.... Phyllis spoke to Nick and was thrilled to hear Noah was out, but was still worried about Jack.... Jack was trapped even more as some rubble fell on him.

Wednesday, October 24, 2007
At Clear Springs, Jack was still stuck in the rubble. He struggled to make his way through, but became more and more exhausted.

Kevin worked on the Web site tracking the accident victims.... Daniel left more messages for Amber — who was stuck underground in her car. A bloodied Amber began to gasp and scream, frantically honking on its horn. The noise caused some debris to fall.... Cane and J.T. were trapped with Katherine. J.T. began to dig through the fallen blocks, but more fell on them. Kay noticed some light, so the guys followed it. Amber continued to yell for help. She managed to kick out the glass in the car's windows and escape the vehicle. She began crawling through the garage, but then remembered that she had to get her sketches from the car.

Jill was glad to see Paul was safe, but was concerned about Cane and Katherine. "What's it like down there?" she asked. "You don't want to know about that," Paul replied, but Jill said that she did. Paul assured her that there are "safe areas" within the rubble, and called Kay, "One tough, old broad." After, Jill and Nikki waited together. Jill wasn't sure Kay would be able to survive, but Nikki was confident that Kay was strong enough. "Come on out and give me a hard time," Jill prayed to her mother.

Kay, Cane and J.T made their way over to the elevator. Cane gave J.T. a boost so he could check out the access panel on the ceiling. Kay suggested the guys go ahead of her and then return to get her. J.T. told Kay how much he appreciates her and everything she's done for her. He assured her that they're coming back for her. Before saying goodbye to Cane, Kay gave him some practical advice. He and J.T. climbed up the wires in the elevator shaft until they reached the next level.

Kevin and Daniel worried about Amber. Kevin noted that she always manages to get out of trouble somehow.... In the garage, Kay and Amber were overjoyed when they encountered each other. Amber joined her in the elevator. "Now what?" she asked. Kay explained that Cane and J.T. went to find help and urged Amber to do the same. Amber refused to leave her. She offered Kay a candy bar that she found in her purse. Amber also found a fancy pin in her bag and put it on Kay's suit so she could look nicer. Kay found it amusing that Amber would still be so concerned about fashion.

Neil informed Jill, Nikki, Victor and Paul that the rescue team reached someone. It was Cane and J.T. Jill was ecstatic to see her son. The guys told the team that Kay is still down there. J.T. asked Victor and Nikki where Victoria was, but they didn't know.... Daniel noted that no one had heard from Amber.... Cane wanted to go back in after Kay, but the incident commander wouldn't let him. Cane insisted, despite his and Jill's protests, saying that he worked for a prestigious rescue group in Australia. They finally let him help out the rescue team... Nikki continued to fret about Victoria, while Jill worried for Cane.

Amber took a quick look around the garage and found floor mats for them to sit on, as well as a blanket. They then discussed Cane. Amber stated that she really did love him, despite making some stupid mistakes. Kay admitted that she's made mistakes, too, and the women bonded. Kay said that making mistakes is actually the secret to success. Finally, Cane returned with some rescue team members, but Kay didn't think she could crawl up the elevator shaft. One of the team members put Kay in a harness and hoisted her up the shaft. Amber was helped out, as well, and they were all lifted out. Jill was proud of Cane, but he confessed that he made up his Aussie credentials just so the team would let him help out.... Kevin and Daniel were thrilled to see Amber alive and well. Amber suddenly began crying from being so overwhelmed.... Nikki tearfully informed Nikki that Victoria is missing.

Back in the garage, Jack coughed and wheezed. He took a pen and a piece of paper from his pocket and began writing a good-bye letter to Sharon. "My love for you is literally keeping me alive," he wrote, as we heard his thoughts. "In this last hour, I've had so many thoughts about my life ... the good and the bad. I want you to know you and Noah and Kyle and my sisters, you must always remember one thing: I could not have loved you more." "I love you," he said aloud, then fell unconscious.

Thursday, October 25, 2007
Nicholas and Sharon waited in the hospital lobby for word on Noah's condition. Sharon felt guilty that they hadn't been with their son during the Clear Springs disaster; Nick was just glad that Noah is alive. Sharon also feared for a still-trapped Jack's fate. Soon, the nurse came out and informed them that Noah had cracked ribs and a broken spleen, and he would need surgery immediately. Another nurse assured Sharon that Noah has a great surgeon.

Colleen arrived in Clear Springs and met up with Kevin. They gave one of Adrian's items to the rescue team so they could have a search dog sniff his scent. Colleen freaked out over the fact that Adrian, Victoria and Jack were missing. "Jack's too toxic to die," cracked Kevin, pointing out that they didn't even know for sure that Adrian and Victoria were in the rubble. Colleen replied that Adrian hadn't checked his cell phone messages. Kevin noted that if he and Colleen could survive being trapped in a freezer in a burning building, then Adrian could survive being trapped in the garage.

J.T. also worried about Victoria.... One of the crew members then handed over Victoria's purse to Victor and Nikki. Nikki completely broke down in Victor's arms.... At the hospital, Nick received a call about Victoria. Sharon comforted him.... Daniel volunteered to help with supplies.... David was alarmed when Nikki told him about Victoria. Nikki was concerned that if Victoria were alive, the stress would affect her pregnancy.... J.T. wanted to find Victoria, but Victor urged him not to do something he wasn't skilled to do.... Colleen panicked when the incident commander revealed that they found the body of a Caucasian male. She prayed it wasn't Jack or Adrian. Neil tried to field questions from the press. He pleaded with them to respect the victims's privacy.... J.T. sadly informed Colleen that they found Victoria's purse. She realized that this meant that Victoria and Adrian were underground.

Sharon was devastated when Nick revealed that they found a male's body. She called Nikki to find out who it was, but she still didn't have information. It turned out to be Joe, the construction supervisor. Sharon was relieved when Niiki said that it was someone she didn't know.

Jack was still unconscious in the rubble.... A trapped Victoria called out for Adrian. She helped him crawl out from behind a pile of cement blocks. Victoria was glad to feel the baby kicking, but she was having a difficult time breathing. They wondered what had happened. Adrian told her that he really admires her; Vicky was happy to have him there with her, so she didn't have to be trapped alone. She was concerned about their air supply, but he assured her that they'd be fine for awhile. He advised her to keep a positive attitude. She believed that her father would do whatever was necessary to find and rescue her. She then shared a story about how when she was younger, she left the house and a worried Victor had a plane write messages in the sky, ordering her to come home.

Sure enough, above ground, Victor was helping the crew search through the rubble with a camera that was lowered below the ground. The crew member warned that the methane levels were rising, which could cause an explosion.... Nick continued to keep Sharon from falling apart at the hospital.... Later, the incident commander made an announcement about the methane levels and ordered the civilians to leave the area. Colleen and Nikki refused to go.

Below ground, Adrian said that the first thing he's going to do when they get out of there is tell Colleen he loves her. Victoria said that she might go back to Italy or paint a masterpiece — but mainly, she just wanted to get out alive.

The nurse told Nick and Sharon that Noah's surgery went well. However, she said that not having a spleen makes Noah's susceptible to infection and that he'll need to be monitored for the rest of his life.

Above ground, the team spied Victoria and Adrian with their cameras. Nikki and Victor were overjoyed. The crew called down to Victoria, who asked about J.T. Suddenly, there was an explosion. Victor and Nikki were fine; Victor dove into the rubble to find his daughter.... Adrian and Victoria were still alive, but a piece of rebar was stuck in Adrian's side. Victoria began screaming for help. She then spied an opening and insisted that they crawl through it.

Meanwhile, Victor found a body in the mess; it was Jack's. The rescue team helped him get Jack out; thankfully, Abbott was still alive.... Daniel called Sharon to let her know.... Victoria helped Adrian through the opening, and they were met by J.T. J.T. assisted Adrian as Victoria exited the building. However, just as she was running to greet her parents, she fell and was knocked unconscious


Friday, October 26, 2007
Victoria, after getting hit on the head and falling, was wheeled into the hospital, unconscious. Nikki, who was beside herself, met up with Nicholas. He wondered how the baby was, but Nikki was mainly concerned with Victoria. The doctor told the Newmans and J.T. that he heard the baby's heartbeat.

Meanwhile, Sharon kept watch over Noah in his hospital room. She was happy when Jack called from his hospital room. Jack said he was fine, save for some bruises, but wasn't sure of the others' conditions. He promised to join her soon. After, Noah awakened and was confused to be in the hospital. Lauren and Michael paid him a visit and told him how brave he'd been during the Clear Springs ordeal, but Noah didn't remember the accident. The Baldwins agreed to watch Noah while Sharon enjoyed a reunion with Jack. Noah was glad to hear that Jack was okay.

A nurse tended to Adrian's leg, which had been pierced by the rebar. He asked how Victoria was doing, but the nurse had no information.... Brad was also desperate to get news on Victoria. Meantime, Brad was suffering from eye irritation, thanks to the explosion.... Jack was willing to postpone his medical tests so he could check up on everyone.

Neil continued to handle questions from the press. Karen volunteered to help him. She suggested he get some rest, but Neil refused. Karen insisted that she could handle the media, but he wanted to wait for news on Victoria. He noted that Devon and Lily were both considering coming up to Clear Springs, so they could've been affected by the tragedy. He was grateful to have Karen there with him.

Colleen tended to Adrian, who explained that he'd need surgery to remove the piece of rebar in his leg. Adrian asked her to take a picture of him with her cell phone. He called himself Adrian "Rebar Man" Korbel. He recounted what the experience had been like for his girlfriend.

The doctor told the Newmans that Victoria's condition was stabilizing, but he had no idea when she'd regain consciousness. Sharon and Jack joined Nick in the lobby; Nick reported that Victoria's blood pressure is high. Nick was glad to see Jack was doing well, but he regretted that they left Jack behind. Nick went to see Noah.... Nikki told the doctor to do anything that was necessary to help Victoria.... Sharon visited Brad, who told her that he only suffered temporary damage to his eyes.... J.T. whispered to Victoria that he loves her.

Paul and Maggie enjoyed a romantic evening together after enduring the disaster. Maggie talked about how great Noah had been throughout it. Paul asked if she'd ever consider having children. She said she wasn't sure, but was willing to "practice" with him. They then had sex, but Paul kind of ruined the moment by bringing up Lauren and her panic attacks. Maggie noted that he and Lauren seemed to be close; Paul said that he still cares for Lauren. Maggie understood and said that she's glad she has Paul in her life. They kissed.

Sharon took Jack to see Noah. Noah remembered some of the accident, including it being dark and difficult to breathe. Jack admitted that he was scared during the disaster. He also praised Noah for taking care of Lauren during it. Sharon agreed that she'd also been frightened in Clear Springs. She thanked Jack for saving her and Nick's lives. Jack was reluctant to take all the credit; he shared that part of why he managed to survive was because he wanted to get back to his family.

Lauren told Michael and Gloria about having a panic attack in Clear Springs. Michael tried to comfort her, but she kept dwelling on the incident. She credited Paul for helping her through it. Later, Gloria brought out Fen so they could play with him, but Lauren was having trouble enjoying herself.

In the hospital lobby, Nick filled in J.T. on his, Sharon and Jack's experience at Clear Springs, then J.T. shared his.... Victor told Nikki how he'd found Jack in the rubble; he admitted that he wouldn't have been able to live with himself if he'd let Jack die. Later, Jack and Sharon found Victor, and Jack thanked him for saving his life. Victor thanked Jack for sacrificing himself for Nick. After, the doctor told the Newmans and J.T. that Victoria's vital signs were good and her blood pressure was holding. "I guess we wait," said J.T. "And we pray," added Nikki. Later, Nurse No-Nonsense told J.T. that he couldn't sit with her because being her fiancé didn't count as being her family. To his credit, he didn't argue with this line of reasoning and asked the nurse to play a CD for Victoria. The nurse again told him to get permission from the family.

The show ended with a montage of Jack and Sharon sitting with Noah; Colleen caring for Adrian (hey, why did she get to be in his room?); Michael comforting Lauren; Karen comforting Neil; Maggie and Paul snuggling in bed; David embracing Nikki as she cried; Victor sitting with his daughter. Outside, J.T. sadly waited by himself.

According to the heart rate monitor in Noah's room, what was his heart rate?

Answer 2

This is what has been happening on Y and R for the last two weeks.An expert was called in to aid the comatose Victoria and he baby. Kane and amber made a coffee date. Phyllis got to see her baby summer during her work release. Nick brought Halloween to Noah's hospital room. Jack learned there was more to the dog hair found on Ji Min's body.Victoria's condition declines. Heather receives info that could put Paul away behind bars. With the clear springs still on her mind, Lauren suffers panic attacks. Victor is divested to realize his part in the clear springs disaster. Neil and Karen up the ante.Victor and Nikki struggle to make an agonizing decision about Victoria and her baby. Paul opens up to heather, incriminating his friends. Plus Paul finally tells heather that he is her father.

Answer 3

I would have to say that nothing much has changed since you haven't seen it. Phillis got released on work time only. The building at Clear Springs collapsed and just about everyone on Y&R were there. Victoria has been the only one with life threatning injuries. She remains in the hospital in a coma (real life character is on paternity leave -- fate of baby and Victoria unknown on show). They still don't know who killed Ji Min (they thought it was Jack due to dog hair, but Jack found out it was only based on Yellow dog hair and it could be Victors dogs as well. Victor is to blame for the disaster of Clear Springs due to drilling a few miles away for nat. gases. Cane has been playing Heather and Lily. Neil and Karen finally made love and he's looking forward to the future with her. Lauren is having panic attacks again worried about Shelia due to the collapse at Clear Springs (in which she was trapped in). Other than that, there really hasn't been anything too excititng in the past week! Paul is supposed to tell Heather w/in the next week that he is her real father. (She is having files pulled on Shelia Carter due to her over hearing Michael and Lauren talking about her)

Answer 4

It pretty much hasn't gotten further than what you last saw. The building collapsed and Victoria is in a coma. Victor owned the land that was doing the drilling which caused the collapse. Imagine the guilt he must be feeling now that his daughter is hurt. Lily is still pining for Cane, but he's dating Heather. Jill leaked info to the press that Jack was a suspect in JiMin's murder. Jack found a way to get some fur from Victor's dog and he gave it to Maggie, but she threw it away. The camera zoomed in on it after she walked away, so that's telling you something. Like I said, it's been very slow, so hopefully they'll start wraping up some stories soon.

Answer 5

sure, each and all the time. I stay with my husband ideal on the border. we've a huge piece of land that the coyotes want to apply for years now. After my husband became shot at, we had to top off on weapons. it is war in my own exterior. i'm initially from S. Dakota, I rather have kin in Texas, and California. My kin tell me each and all the time with regard to the dissimilar motor vehicle injuries by utilising unlawful below the impression of alcohol drivers, hit and runs of their areas, and merely undeniable stupidity on the wheel. those human beings don't have motive force's licenses or motor vehicle coverage, so which you comprehend that they are no longer examined for utilising competence and good eyesight. they are merely injuries waiting to ensue, in the event that they get harm they bypass to the scientific institution on taxpayer dime, we would desire to consistently pay to deport them--lower back, and that they sneak lower back in and repeat an analogous bull all over lower back. Illegals ought to get the loss of existence penalty in the event that they kill an American civilian, twist of destiny or no longer and have been till now deported. I recommend accomplished, hastily. end the cycle. it rather is rediculous.
