At Crimson Lights, Phyllis enjoyed a rare moment with her son, Daniel, when Billy walked in. They invited him to join, and Phyllis shared their ambitious plan to take down the Newmans. Daniel questioned why this attempt would be any different from their past failures, but Billy argued that Phyllis could succeed in anything she set her mind to. Daniel urged Phyllis to focus on something more practical, questioning whether she was fighting Billy’s battle rather than her own. Billy, however, was convinced that the stakes were high and the outcome could shift the balance for all of them.
As the conversation continued, Daniel made it clear that he didn't want to get involved in their risky venture, suggesting Phyllis should work with him instead of continuing to support Billy’s fight against Victor. After Daniel left, Billy pressed Phyllis for a definitive answer about her commitment to the plan. He made it clear that he trusted her and believed she deserved a top position at Chancellor. Phyllis, however, was still unsure, especially since she didn’t know all the details of Billy’s plan. Billy revealed that his main target was Adam, Victor’s estranged son. He intended to destroy Adam as a way to hurt Victor both personally and financially.
Phyllis, skeptical, reminded Billy that she had been part of exposing Adam in the past, asking what more there was to reveal. Billy was confident that his multi-pronged strategy would succeed, though Phyllis remained unconvinced. She expressed concern that Billy’s plan might be more about revenge than a solid business strategy, and warned him that this kind of grand vision could be a sign of him spiraling.
Elsewhere, Nick and Victor met at Society to discuss Sharon’s ongoing disappearance. Nick expressed frustration over their lack of progress but reiterated his belief that Ian wasn’t acting alone. Victor reassured him that they would find Sharon, no matter the cost. As the investigation continued, Chance brought them significant new evidence: security footage showing Sharon being dragged into a car after being knocked out. Victor and Nick were determined to track down the driver, convinced that finding them would lead them straight to Sharon. Meanwhile, in her underground captivity, Sharon fought to stay calm as she attempted to free herself from her chains.
At the ranch house, Claire dropped a bombshell on Nikki and Victoria: Jordan was back in Genoa City. Claire shared that she had recently encountered Jordan and admitted that she hadn’t called the police because Jordan had emotionally manipulated her into thinking she wasn’t there to hurt her. However, Claire quickly realized that Jordan could never be trusted, and that the only way to stop her for good was to take drastic action.
As Claire detailed the extent of Jordan’s past crimes, including pushing Nikki’s friend in front of a car and setting fire to a prison, she made a chilling proposal: Jordan had to die. Nikki and Victoria tried to reason with Claire, warning her of the emotional consequences of such an extreme decision. But Claire, driven by fear and a desire to protect her family, insisted that she was willing to bear any cost to keep everyone safe.
Claire went further, suggesting that they use her as bait to lure Jordan into a trap. Despite their concerns, Claire was resolute—if they didn’t act now, Jordan would eventually kill again. "If she’s breathing, she’s coming after us. After me. And it has to stop," Claire declared. Nikki and Victoria remained torn, but Claire made it clear that she was willing to take matters into her own hands if they wouldn’t back her.
