When Diane fled town, thanks to Jeremy Stark’s arrival, Kyle and Summer seemed to distance themselves from the Abbott household for the holidays. The couple actually enjoyed a secret trip to a cabin with Harrison and Diane for the holidays so they could be together. Summer however let Diane know she and her involvement with Stark have put Kyle in a terrible position, and while her own mother crossed a line, she was her mother and wouldn’t turn her back on her. However, Phyllis believed Summer had turned her back on her and chosen Diane over her own mother, crying that Summer broke her heart. Next week, Summer turns to her brother and loses it over all that’s been going on. Daniel had no idea that things had gotten so bad. Summer exclaims, “I have just been going along with everything Kyle wants! For the sake of our marriage.” Daniel asks, “So what are you going to do now?” Good question! Will she make a stand?
Victor attempted to try and convince Adam to leave Jabot and come back to Newman, but Adam shot his father down. Victor warned Adam he was his own worst enemy and had nothing and it was his own damn fault. Victor then turned his attention to his other son, wondering when Nick would stop cavorting around with Sally Spectra. Nick has no intention of doing so, but things are about to change. Last week Sally was feeling a bit under the weather and Chloe began to ponder if she could be pregnant. Sally completely shut the idea down. However, we know from another preview that Sally is indeed pregnant! When Sally realized she was late, she confided in Chloe that she recently slept with both Adam and Nick! Coming up, Sally asks Adam, “Why are you being so nice to me?” He replies, “I think you know.” Last week he noticed her drinking herbal tea and assumed she was under the weather. Has he figured out why?
Finally, when Christine learned Danny was back in town, she couldn’t help but start reminiscing about the past Christmases they’d spent together when they were married. Of course, she’s currently married to Paul, whose been MIA for a while now. Coming up, Christine says to Danny, “Thanks for waiting.” He tells her, “It’s worth it to have some time with you.”

<p>After a falling out with Chloe putting the kibosh on them working together, Chelsea took up with Billy — in the podcast booth, that is. Exhibiting increasingly erratic behavior, Chelsea kissed Billy and later started pushing him to convince Victoria to let her tell Johnny the truth — she is his biological mother. Chelsea managed to talk them into it, but it turned out to be a case of “be careful what you wish for,” as the boy didn’t take the news well. Neither did Connor.</p>

<p>No sooner had Kyle and Summer said their vows when a new drama dropped out of the sky. Devon’s shifty father and Ashley’s ex, flew in by helicopter. No one was impressed, least of all Diane, who, it was later revealed, had a connection to him during her time in Los Angeles. He not only had her feeding him information on Ashley’s whereabouts but expected her to deliver Jabot’s financial documents to him. But Diane came clean with Jack and Kyle and threw a monkey wrench into those particular plans. Tucker claimed he was only back to try and reconcile with Ashley, spend time with Devon and meet his grandson Dominic, but it soon became clear he had a connection to Audra, and had his eye on Chancellor-Winters as well.</p>

<p>No one was more surprised than Abby and Devon when their friendly comfort session turned into a red-hot sex romp. Well, perhaps Amanda and Chance, who walked in on them in a post-coital cuddle. Needless to say, that was the end of his relationship with Amanda, who moved to Virginia to be with her sick mother, and Abby’s marriage to Chance, who asked for a divorce.</p>

<p>Unsurprisingly, Diane had more secrets about her time in L.A. It turns out she was smuggling cash for a criminal named Jeremy Stark. It was also not a surprise that Phyllis summoned the guy to town in hopes of running Diane off. It worked… kind of, as Diane went into hiding at the Abbott cabin.</p>
