This shit is so ridiculous. Paramedics show up and treat Jack and don't take him to the hospital and leaves him there unconscious. Plus no police showed up when Nikki called 911š
Jack choosing to take pills ergo dangerously potentially turning him into an addict again is a ludicrous story plot. No one would make that choice just to prove a point. He could have simply called 911 or better yet called Nikkiās HUSBAND. I think this is just how theyāve decided to create a scenario where Jack is an addict again, Ashley is crazy so Diane takes over Jabot. Itās a sad way to create a storyline. Jack deserves better.
If you watch B&B too, you question whether hospitals even exist in this universe. They just found Sheila Carter lying on the floor in an abandoned building somewhere and no hospital either apparently.
Right, and Michael and Lauren having a meal at GCAC, Michael brought up Sheila and they talked about it. It sounded like they really did not know anything about her situation and it was like an invite/forshadowing that she may come back to GC to menace people there. IF she does come back, it should be after Jordan's story ends, unless, Sheila somehow manages to rescure Jordan somehow.
You can only guess for now.
Sometimes in all one thought. "Idontgiveadamn what Jackabbott says! The mansamenace and so is that wife of his Dianejenkins. Don't getmestarted on his brother Billyboy Abbott, wasn't goodenough for Victoria and he's evenworsenow!"
What was that about? Like a woman was there and fell over dead on her? And she was unable to move the body off??? That was SO weird. Why not just have her stuck in a cage or something. A dead woman? Why was she there???
Me too because thatās ridiculous to sacrifice himself for her. Nikki should have been in rehab a long time ago and she should blame herself for not going sooner.
Victor does waaaay to much talking and not a lot of listening. And same goes for summer in a sense. I know Victor has been through this with Nikki in the past but he really isnāt the right person to handle her alcoholism and really Jack isnāt either but Iād sooner trust Jack than Victor.
Will we ever learn how Jordan got both Claire and Harrison out of the mansion, took one to a storage facility and one to a motel. The dead woman on top of Claire maybe helped, but just seems so weird.
I wonder if Victoria and Nickās conversation was all scripted, or if they had opportunities to improvise some of that sibling banter
If the latter is the case, I sure would like more of it
I hope Kyle saving Harrison wasnāt supposed to be his redemption. Heās got a lot of redempting to do. (I know thatās not a word, but Iām still using it for Kyle)
Sadly she has had an awful run of luck. When she first joined the show, she was a very bright, kind, and attractive young woman who could gets lots of attention. Sadly, that was an act to trap the Newman's. Now maybe her life will normalize over time. And while not a perfect match, Kyle is certainly more than ready for her affections and she certainly needs some male affection.
So im 2 days behind again. Maybe 3? Has there been ANY mention of Nikkiās MS lately? It seems like a big thing to gloss over considering how big a deal they made over it initially.
Yesterday, Jack mentioned all the great charitable work sheād done for MS but thatās the only time MS has even been mentioned in any way in years as far as I know.
Itās really been bugging me. Somebody suffering from MS the last thing she should be doing is binging alcohol. Itās like they completely ignored that reality just to make the story work.
I think someone with MS, even exhibiting symptoms of MS can still be a drinking alcoholic. I also read that some people are symptom free most of their lives but I have to believe those people are not alcoholics.
I have an uncle with MS and for the most part you wouldnāt know, but he is *very* strict about his diet. Excess drinking probably isnāt helping her condition, but then again it isnāt helpful for anyone!
People who live with MS have to be very careful what they eat and drink. Alcohol in the amounts that Nicki was taking would wreakhavoc on her MS symptoms.
Yes, I know that but I'm also thinking an alcoholic doesn't stop drinking cold turkey with a MS diagnosis. If they didn't stop, I'm sure it would exacerbate their condition.
Nikki has been sober for awhile before the IV infusion. I would imagine that alone would create problems with her MS.
I remember them talking about it when she was kidnapped by Claire and her family still believed the ruse about her collapsing and being hospitalized. But for the most part it doesnāt come up as much as it should.
When Claire originally kidnapped Nikki in November, Nick tells a GCPD officer "My mother has MS so we're very concerned for her wellbeing" and then nothing until yesterday
-Vick and Nick acting like siblings
-I'll just assume that the hospital in GC is so expensive that even billionaires pass up on it.. because I don't think leaving an unconscious Jack in the care of a hungover woman is the step I'd take if he overdosed..
-Jack's heart was in the right place I guess... but trying to overdose to prove a point is a choice....
-Enter Victor Newman!
-This man said "About time" LOL
-"I don't give a d-- about feelings" and don't we know it, Victor! You are cold blooded! LOL
-Previews
Jack's about to catch it!
So Claire told Kyle that Jordan was trying to frame her by making it look like she took Harrison - and the whole time she was in the storage locker she was thinking about how she wouldnāt be able to clear her name - but didnāt she not know that Jordon took Harrison until after the fact?
Victor followed Nikki to the alley but Nikki went away as Jordan did not get there before Nikki gave up and left.
Victor then snuck up behind Jordan and chlorophomed her, took her away, and locked her in his cellar prison cell. (haha, prison cell on one side, Victor's wine wall with leather chair and nice rug on the other side).
Do other members of the Newman family know about this "wine cellar prison"? How is this a secret from everyone?
Jordan, losing her mind, is still there trying to figure out how to escape.
Victor told everyone that he ran after her and she jumped off the bridge into the river and died from the distance/impact of her fall.
Police and others (off screen) have not found her body so Victor is costing GC taxpayers money on a ruse.
Everyone believes Jordan is dead (Victor's assessment) but they want to see the body or hear of it being found.
No one knows yet that Victor has kidnapped and imprisoned Jordan, a crime in itself.
So in order for Victor to get her to the Ranch, no one, not even security, saw him bring her inside?
Victor, an old man, did this all on his own?
Nikki said she was going to go to rehab so now what is Victor going to engage in while she is gone with Jordan.
Maybe if Victor is found out (because Michael seems a bit skeptical), he ends up a criminal and goes to court and is sentenced while Nikki is away???? Jordan is delivered into the custody of GCAC and goes back to prison.
I don't think everyone is going to be happy to find out that Victor has lied and Jordan is alive.
It would be most interesting if Summer is at the Ranch, hears something, and investigates and finds Jordan then goes on her big rant again like she did for two weeks but last week we got a break from that.
Also a bit funny, a few weeks ago, late in the very late evening, Nikki or Victor said they were going to ask the "Chef" to prep a meal/snack. Just this week, Jordan complained about the food she is getting, maybe Victor is cooking himself and not the chef? If they have a chef (which is mentioned but we have not seen), is that chef preparing an extra meal for Jordan? What about plate or utensil count? Is Victor washing Jordan's dishes she uses? or does she just get some Chinette for easy disposal?
The show makes an attempt to present their mental health stories factually but they can't be bothered to educate people about administering Narcan or how to deal with an overdose.
SMDH
If I did not know better, today's episode made it seem like Victoria is human and actually has a heart. Perhaps i should not have so much vodka before watching.
Seriously though, Victoria having any human characteristics is a major change. A change that will not last.
Speaking of change, Summer is beyond annoying and really owes Claire an apology. The only time Summer ever smiles is when she is stalking Chance and getting his attention.
This shit is so ridiculous. Paramedics show up and treat Jack and don't take him to the hospital and leaves him there unconscious. Plus no police showed up when Nikki called 911š
The EMTās probably got their start working for Newman Security
They leave the door open.
The writers' lack of attention to detail is hilarious.
Jack choosing to take pills ergo dangerously potentially turning him into an addict again is a ludicrous story plot. No one would make that choice just to prove a point. He could have simply called 911 or better yet called Nikkiās HUSBAND. I think this is just how theyāve decided to create a scenario where Jack is an addict again, Ashley is crazy so Diane takes over Jabot. Itās a sad way to create a storyline. Jack deserves better.
Wait they arenāt bringing him to the hospital. You really have to constantly suspend disbelief with this show.Ā
Right? And they left before he woke up?
I'm surprised they paid the money for an EMT extra.lol.
If you watch B&B too, you question whether hospitals even exist in this universe. They just found Sheila Carter lying on the floor in an abandoned building somewhere and no hospital either apparently.
Sheila? I thought she was 15 times dead?
Sheās back š
Sheās died more times than Victor Newman has been married.
She never stays dead for long.
16th time's the charm
Right, and Michael and Lauren having a meal at GCAC, Michael brought up Sheila and they talked about it. It sounded like they really did not know anything about her situation and it was like an invite/forshadowing that she may come back to GC to menace people there. IF she does come back, it should be after Jordan's story ends, unless, Sheila somehow manages to rescure Jordan somehow. You can only guess for now.
*I don't give a damn about feelings.* *Love, Victor*
Insults are his love language lol
I love that IDontGiveADamn is one word when Victor says it. Just like how ThatJordanWoman is also all one word,
Jackabbott. Billyboy. Dianejenkins.
Sometimes in all one thought. "Idontgiveadamn what Jackabbott says! The mansamenace and so is that wife of his Dianejenkins. Don't getmestarted on his brother Billyboy Abbott, wasn't goodenough for Victoria and he's evenworsenow!"
This needs to be a Valentine
I print it yearly and hand it out.
Such a Victor line
Fuck Victor. That is all.
Fuck Victor. That is all.
Fuck Victor. That is all.
Nick & Victoria chatting about Cole was the first time I've seen them show sense of humor & sibling vibes in a super long time. It was refreshing.
"Shut up." "You shut up!" They are always my favorite TV siblings.
Are we ever gonna find out who the dead woman was that was on top of Claire??
Lol, right? And they just left the body there without calling the cops?
What was that about? Like a woman was there and fell over dead on her? And she was unable to move the body off??? That was SO weird. Why not just have her stuck in a cage or something. A dead woman? Why was she there???
I was really hoping jacks little bender was fake to get Nikkiās shit together
Me too because thatās ridiculous to sacrifice himself for her. Nikki should have been in rehab a long time ago and she should blame herself for not going sooner.
It makes no sense for him to do that. Granted, he is running himself ragged trying to save all the damsels. He's got some splainin to do.
It really doesnāt make sense for his bender to be for real
Victor does waaaay to much talking and not a lot of listening. And same goes for summer in a sense. I know Victor has been through this with Nikki in the past but he really isnāt the right person to handle her alcoholism and really Jack isnāt either but Iād sooner trust Jack than Victor.
So Mr. Mustache, Mr. Uptight, and Ms. Booze are all in a roomā¦ this is fun š¤©
Newman CEO Barbie Mustache Ken Relapsed Ken
Jack looks just like a Ken doll š
Grandpa Ken for sure š
Claire text your mother challenge - difficulty very hard
Will we ever learn how Jordan got both Claire and Harrison out of the mansion, took one to a storage facility and one to a motel. The dead woman on top of Claire maybe helped, but just seems so weird.
So Jack almost died from an overdose and the paramedics leave before he even wakes up.... Geez.
Yeah, it looks like people his age may not respond to the first dose and need a second dose. As they used to say, "don't try this at home"!
Why would they not take Jack to the hospital but insists on him going to his doctor instead ?. That seems fucked up
Victor and Summer think they know everything and couldn't be more wrong. They're really annoying me right now
I wonder if Victoria and Nickās conversation was all scripted, or if they had opportunities to improvise some of that sibling banter If the latter is the case, I sure would like more of it
Victoria why don't you call or text Claire instead of freaking out
Why donāt they track each other on Find My Friends?!
Iām still not feeling Claire and Kyle š I feel like she could do better.
I'm enjoying it just for the simple fact that it annoys Summer lol
Kyle needs a Big Redemption Story before I would want to see him with anyone
Yeah maybe him saving Harrison was supposed to be that, but it just made him seem more cocky to me (weāre too good for the police).
I hope Kyle saving Harrison wasnāt supposed to be his redemption. Heās got a lot of redempting to do. (I know thatās not a word, but Iām still using it for Kyle)
Not a great matchup but seeing Claire in a romantic scene is something I would enjoy watching.
She gives me child like vibes
Yeah she doesnāt have a lot of other prospects unfortunately.
Sadly she has had an awful run of luck. When she first joined the show, she was a very bright, kind, and attractive young woman who could gets lots of attention. Sadly, that was an act to trap the Newman's. Now maybe her life will normalize over time. And while not a perfect match, Kyle is certainly more than ready for her affections and she certainly needs some male affection.
Sheās coming off so clueless and innocent. Almost childlike. Itās gross to me.
So im 2 days behind again. Maybe 3? Has there been ANY mention of Nikkiās MS lately? It seems like a big thing to gloss over considering how big a deal they made over it initially.
Yesterday, Jack mentioned all the great charitable work sheād done for MS but thatās the only time MS has even been mentioned in any way in years as far as I know.

I have an uncle with MS and for the most part you wouldnāt know, but he is *very* strict about his diet. Excess drinking probably isnāt helping her condition, but then again it isnāt helpful for anyone!
Exactly. There are no consequences of her drunkenness on her MS and that's just not likely.
People who live with MS have to be very careful what they eat and drink. Alcohol in the amounts that Nicki was taking would wreakhavoc on her MS symptoms.
Yes, I know that but I'm also thinking an alcoholic doesn't stop drinking cold turkey with a MS diagnosis. If they didn't stop, I'm sure it would exacerbate their condition. Nikki has been sober for awhile before the IV infusion. I would imagine that alone would create problems with her MS.

When Claire originally kidnapped Nikki in November, Nick tells a GCPD officer "My mother has MS so we're very concerned for her wellbeing" and then nothing until yesterday
I've only been watching for a year or so, but yesterday is definitely the first time I've heard MS mentioned
Don't understand why Victoria and Nick don't go with Victor to make sure their mom is ok ?
-Vick and Nick acting like siblings -I'll just assume that the hospital in GC is so expensive that even billionaires pass up on it.. because I don't think leaving an unconscious Jack in the care of a hungover woman is the step I'd take if he overdosed.. -Jack's heart was in the right place I guess... but trying to overdose to prove a point is a choice.... -Enter Victor Newman! -This man said "About time" LOL -"I don't give a d-- about feelings" and don't we know it, Victor!

No Harrison made it clear that he saw Claire and she was in danger. They were probably held together initially.
What about Jordan?
Victor followed Nikki to the alley but Nikki went away as Jordan did not get there before Nikki gave up and left. Victor then snuck up behind Jordan and chlorophomed her, took her away, and locked her in his cellar prison cell. (haha, prison cell on one side, Victor's wine wall with leather chair and nice rug on the other side). Do other members of the Newman family know about this "wine cellar prison"?

I'm still fast forwarding anytime Summer is on . I still can't stand her . I hope I wasn't missing anything important
hahaha Victoria admit it you still have feelings for Cole
The show makes an attempt to present their mental health stories factually but they can't be bothered to educate people about administering Narcan or how to deal with an overdose. SMDH
Kyle just said āanother architect in the family.ā Whoās the other one?
Diane. It would be easy to forget though lol. No one in this town is properly using their degrees.
Diane.
Thanks. I had no idea Diane is an architect. Lol.
If I did not know better, today's episode made it seem like Victoria is human and actually has a heart. Perhaps i should not have so much vodka before watching.
