Monday, May 12 (Season 52, Episode 150):
Billy brings Sally up to speed on recent drama, revealing that Victor insulted him over firing Phyllis. Sally suggests ignoring both Victor and Adam, assuming the father and son are working in tandem.
Billy admits Victor tried to bribe him for information on Duma’s move against Chancellor-Winters, but he plans to step away from the fight and let Victor and Duma go head-to-head. Sally approves, asking Billy to commit his energy to Abbott-Chancellor—and he agrees, sealing the moment with a kiss, unaware that Phyllis is eavesdropping.
Meanwhile, Daniel and Phyllis have an intense chat at Crimson Lights. He’s trying to heal and move on, but Phyllis wants to collaborate again—something Daniel isn’t ready for.
He urges her to let him process his grief alone, but when she won’t back down, he concedes: if she comes up with a truly compelling idea, they can revisit the discussion.
Elsewhere, Claire is determined to win Victor’s approval for her relationship with Kyle, but Kyle is deeply skeptical. He believes Victor will never accept him simply because he’s an Abbott.
