Look at what she did with Sharon, Diane and Daisy. Phyllis can wear a sign on her forhead that says killer and GCPD wont care. Then they lied to him and told him that his mother had abandoned him. So Daniel hated his mother for years. Daniel struggled with that for years. Then when he found out that Danny had lied to him he hated Danny. So that is enough reason for Phyllis to hate Christine and she can call her whatever she likes.
What kind of person would do that to an innocent child. That is abhorrent. She bascially took away the boys childhood just for hateful vengence and now she comes rolling into town like she is victim! She has no kids so maybe she is as hard about that as she is everything else but that little boy suffered his childhood with no mother and his mother adored him and he never got the chance to grow up knowing that. Did she run down that cockroack?
Who cares! Christine hates Phyllis as much as Phyllis hates Christine and has for years even before she knew about the hit and run. Every time she sees Phyllis she starts with the personal attacks and insults to the point that Avery had to tell her to leave Phyllis alone or she was going to the judge.
She was interrupting the questioning over and over again until Michael had to tell her to be quiet. She is a lawyer and a DOJ agent so she knows better. Her behavior was immature and unprofessional. This was all part of her plan to try to get Danny to leave his wife at the time, Christine Blair. Eventually, after several failed relationships, Phyllis leaves town.
However, she, of course, did return, and upon her return to the series, she found herself being framed for arson and attempted murder. It is safe to say that Phyllis is quite the handful. Abby protects her interests today on YR. Darcy Rose Byrnes and Melissa Ordway are two of the actors that have taken on the role of Abby over the past two decades. When Phyllis opens the door, she sees that the smoke is getting worse, and Jack goes to pull her away from the door; then there's banging on the door and it opens and to the couple's shock Patty Williams is standing in front of their faces.
Dressed as a kitty cat. Jack and Phyllis can't believe what they are seeing and they begin to think that either they are hallucinating from the smoke or have passed out and don't know it. Patty then pushes her way into the room and shuts the door. Soon Phyllis calls Patty a wacko which upsets her, and when Patty asks about Summer; Phyllis goes into mother mode telling Patty "Don't you ever go anywhere near my daughter! Jack tries to calm the tension by asking Patty to lead the way out and they will follow her, but Patty thinks it's a trick and that they will do nothing of the kind.
Phyllis says that they just want Patty to be a team player, and that she owes them considering the last time she spoke to Phyllis she shot her husband. Patty then tells Jack he can be so kind, but Phyllis can spit poison, she is also shocked that Jack is siding with his wife and that he seems all too happy to let her walk away.
Jack then talks to Patty and tells her that he's not letting her go, that he was stupid to let her get away etc. Soon there is another explosion, as the roof in the break room collapses knocking out Jack and Phyllis. Jack gets up, helps his wife and then they see that the vending machine has fallen on top of Patty, unfortunately they can't move the very heavy machine to save her. Phyllis notices that the fire is getting closer and they have to get out Now! Jack feels bad about leaving Patty, but Phyllis says that she is dead so they don't have a choice and the couple escape the fire and make it to the lobby.
At the hospital, the couple are greeted by Billy and the others as Jack gets his wife a seat. While drama goes on at the hospital, Jack tends to his lovely bride as they comment that they are lucky to be alive, and how Jack is glad that he was able to save his wife. After Chelsea lights into Christine about her treatment of Adam, Jack and Phyllis have a discussion about leaving Patty behind, and they talk about why this is bothering him.
Eventually the pair realize that they made the only choice they could make as hard as it was to leave Patty. A few days after the fire, Jack and Phyllis learn from Billy about his idea to allow Newman Enterprises to share building space with Jabot while Victor works to get his company back on its feet.
Phyllis is dead set against this because Victor humiliated her, robbed her of her husband, and put Marco into her life. Phyllis tells Jack that she hopes that asking Victor about sharing office space with Jabot is part of his plan to get even with Victor about Marco; Phyllis further says that Jack promised her revenge, that she hasn't forgotten and she tells Jack that he'd better not forget either.
Still fuming about what Victor did to her, Phyllis has teamed up with Billy to take down Victor Newman once and for all and bring him to his knees. Billy has his own agenda to want to crush Victor, and when Phyllis offers to help him; Billy tells her to stay out of it; however Phyllis tells Billy that she has her own scars on her life left by Victor and that she wants revenge. Phyllis joins Jack at the birthday party for her niece, and while there both families put aside their differences for the sake of the children.
Later after Phyllis helps Billy put the kids down, she and Jack leave and head back to Jabot where he can tell that his lovely redhead is up to something; however Phyllis brushes it off and scrambles off to a meeting she has.
When Victor shows up with bad news about Paragon, Phyllis and the others discover that Ian Ward's body was never found at the tower after the fire which leads Victor to think that Adam lied etc.
Phyllis says that she can help Victor get Ian, and when he asks how; Phyllis says that she and Ian are tight friends, because first he was stalking Nikki; however now he's stalking her. Victor accuses her of knowing about Ian and saying nothing.
Phyllis counters and says that she knew him as Fred the fisherman in the woods; however she also says that Victor should have told her about a maniac who brainwashed her daughter. Next Phyllis offers herself up as bait to help Victor catch Ian Ward, Jack is immediately opposed to this idea and when Victor and Jack talk together; Jack tells Victor to offer his wife as bait, and Victor has the same look that Jack had to which he responds that now they each feel the same way: neither of them would want their wife around Ian Ward never mind being bait.
Jack talks with Phyllis about her plan, and clearly he is dead set against it; however Jack realizes that Phyllis is clearly still in pain about the whole Marco situation, and will never forget what Victor did to her or their marriage.
After Victor discovers that both Phyllis and Billy are working together to bring him down, he resolves to stop them first. However Phyllis has taken steps of her own to track down Ian Ward herself, by getting her hands on Topher Ian's assistant who first helped him build Paragon; Phyllis gets Topher to film her doing a video for Ian: in short how he pretty much made a fool of her and she won't let that happen again. When Victor finds out that Phyllis has found Ian, she tells him that she plans on meeting him to get the necessary information to stop Paragon and the threat to Newman and Jabot; Victor however doesn't believe her and says that only way he will believe what she says is to go with her to meet Ian.
When the two arrive at Ian's motel room, Phyllis first tries to charm the information out of him; however when Victor enters the room and threatens Ian with a knife unless he stop Paragon, Ian says that he can't stop it.
Victor suddenly grabs Phyllis by her throat and begins to strangle her, and tells Ian that if he doesn't stop Paragon then he will kill his "girlfriend". Ian doesn't believe Victor and says "You wouldn't dare! Ian continues to say that he can't give Victor what he's looking for, and this causes Victor to literally begin choking the life out of Phyllis as she begins to cry out in pain and for someone to help her, she also begs Victor to stop it and let her go.
Unfortunately Victor keeps his iron grip on her throat, and try as she might she can't pry his hands off of her neck. Ian finally relents and tells Victor that he will take them to the room where Paragon has been run from; Victor is relieved to hear this and finally lets Phyllis go as she falls on the bed gasping for air. A short time later, Ian, Phyllis and Victor arrive at the server room; where Victor demands that Ian stop the virus.
Ian says that he can't stop it because it has taken on a life of its own; however Phyllis steps in saying that her life and his are at risk from Victor if he can't stop this virus from attacking Jabot and Newman. Victor finally begins ripping cords, and wires from the wall, he smashes the laptop, and then grabs Ian by his shirt collar saying that he has destroyed the virus.
A few minutes later, there's a knock on the door and the FBI are standing at the door ready to arrest Ian Ward again. Phyllis thanks the agents for coming so quickly as Victor bids them to arrest him and take him away, as he's being led out Ian says that this is not over. After Ian leaves Phyllis tells Victor that their plan worked as she rubs her neck and Victor says that he hopes he didn't hurt her; Phyllis says that she knows that Victor will destroy whatever is in his way in order to get what he wants.
After Ian goes off to prison, Ashley first confronts Billy, and finally Phyllis. Reason being is that she can understand on some level why Billy would want to go after Victor; however she cannot understand why Phyllis wants Victor's blood.
This hits Phyllis' nerve as Ashley continues to press her saying that Jack will never forgive her, and why she would go behind her husband's back and threaten his life's work all to get back at Victor.
However Phyllis says that she doesn't need to explain herself, but Ashley says that she does indeed need to explain since Jabot is her company and Phyllis works for her; Phyllis knows this well as she thanks Ashley and tries to leave for her office.
However Ashley won't relent as Phyllis begins going on the defensive, saying that she has NO idea what Victor did to her and put her through; Ashley begs to know and finally Phyllis says: "Well let's just say he ruined my honeymoon". She then gathers her tablet and her purse and heads for her office. When Jack comes clean to Michael about Marco and what Victor did to him and his wife, he tells Michael that he plans to out himself and Victor at a press conference because he's tired of Victor thinking he can do whatever he wants to his family and he will stand by and take it Phyllis happens to walk into the office and is shocked by her husband's plans; Jack tells her that this is the only way to save Jabot and get justice for them for what Victor did to her, him and their marriage.
With Michael in the room, Phyllis tries to get her best friend to make Jack see that this is a huge mistake; unfortunately for her Michael agrees with Jack that Victor cannot get away with what he has done. Jack then vows to protect Marisa of all people, and Phyllis is shocked that he'd rather protect Marco's ex lover instead of his own wife. When Michael leaves, Phyllis then cracks as she tries to make Jack realize that if he exposes Victor then she will be exposed as well; however Jack feels that her story will bring sympathy and compassion, but Phyllis fears being publicly humiliated as well as her children and the people she works with finding out what happened to her.
Jack tries to hold her and say that they are doing this together; however Phyllis pushes him away as she says that he is not doing this as a team, but alone, and can he not see that.
Sadly for Phyllis her husband cannot be persuaded to change his mind as he looks into her eyes and says "I'm sorry you feel that way. At the Athletic Club, Jack is getting ready for the press conference that Michael set up for him so that he can expose Victor. Ashley tells him that he does not have to do this, but Jack says that Victor needs to pay for what he has done as Ashley responds: "At what cost? Jack speaks about: How proud he is of Jabot, respecting his father's legacy and integrity, and cherishing his vision.
He finally speaks of his father's courage, and while looking into Phyllis' eyes he talks about how courage is sometimes as simple as facing the truth no matter how detrimental to "business as usual".
Jack continues to look into his wife's beautiful eyes and sees the pain on her face, the tears in her eyes, and realizes that he cannot expose the woman he loves; Jack then says that sometimes courage means facing adversity head on with dignity and grace He then apologizes and says that there will be no big announcement, as he leave the podium Victor walks over to the microphone; Jack covers the mic asking "What the hell do you think you're doing?
Jack tells Victor to walk away and consider himself lucky that the truth didn't come out; however Victor is smug as he says that he indeed feels lucky as Jack Abbott is giving up Jack replies that he had more than himself to look after as people he cares about were involved but Victor wouldn't understand that. After the press conference, Phyllis hugs her husband as she thanks him for not exposing her secret; Jack holds his wife in a protective manner as if he could never bear to hurt her in that way.
Ashley then hugs Jack as she says she is so happy he changed his mind and asks why he did it; Jack replies that he saw his wife and he realized that sometimes beating your enemies isn't as important as protecting the the people you love. Victor is still at the podium watching and listening to them talk as he says that meanwhile Jack saved himself years behind bars; Ashley replies that Jack saved Victor too but he's not going to hold his breath and wait for a thank you.
Michael asks Jack what he wants to do and says that he can respond to the Newman lawsuit; however Jack tells Michael no lawsuits or fighting, and to draw up a contract saying that in exchange for the money: Victor agrees to drop the lawsuit and also to never pursue any legal action against Jabot, or any of its offices. Phyllis and Ashley know that Jabot can't take a hit like this; however Jabot has been in this spot before and they came back, so Ashley is confident that as long as they stick together then Jabot will be just fine.
Ashley then tells Victor that just because he has money in his pockets doesn't mean that he has won, but Victor claims that he is the victim, that the Abbotts came after him, and that they're lucky he accepted the deal or else he would have taken each of them to court.
With Ashley, Michael and Phyllis looking on, Jack then walks up to Victor and says that this ends now: no more wars, no more blood; Jack and his family are done with Victor. Victor replies that Jack should remember one thing: he will always protect his family and company.
However Jack says that Victor will always protect his ego, and his family be damned and everyone knows it. Jack finally says that if Victor thinks he has won, he is sadly mistaken and has no idea what he has just lost. Victor tells Michael to draw up the contract, and that as soon as he signs it he expects the money to be transferred into a Newman holding account. Jack asks Ashley to help Michael with the language, and tells Victor to enjoy snuggling up to his "cash register" as he leaves to "celebrate" with his family.
Ashley can't believe that she has to plan a wedding with Victor, and she says that while this payoff puts Jabot in precarious predicament that it's only temporary as Jack did the right thing. Michael comments "Yeah, a half billion dollars of the right thing". Jack replies that he would pay any amount of money to have that smug bastard out of their lives.
Later that afternoon back at Jabot, Jack and Phyllis talk about the payoff and that fact that he did it on order to protect her. Phyllis tries to apologize by saying that if she had just trusted his instincts then none of this would have happened; however Jack tells her not to apologize, because what she suffered at Victor's hands was unspeakably wrong, and he understands that she wanted justice.
Phyllis replies saying that the choice Jack made to protect her might decimate Jabot; Jack then looks into her eyes and says that as long as she is not decimated then he will be just fine. Jack then takes her into his arms and they hug; Phyllis then says that if they have to close some divisions to restructure Jabot then they can, but Jack interrupts her and says "Let's not talk business".
The feeling of love and romance has crept into the room as Phyllis begins to smile, and Jack talks about Christmas being right around the corner, and wanting to celebrate their life, marriage, love and future. Phyllis gets closer to her husband and he puts his arms around her waist as she says that while she loves that idea she's not so sure she made Santa's "nice"list this year; Jack replies "Well how about I help you make his "naughty" list?
While they are enjoying each other, Billy walks into the room and breaks their romantic vibe, he apologizes for what happened and the the payoff having to happen; however Jack is feeling less than forgiving as he rips into Billy for starting this whole mess with Victor, he says that Billy has no idea what he has done, and did not now nor ever think about the consequences of his actions.
He just acted first. Unfortunately the apologies never seem to make up for the damage done, and now "sorry" is too little too late, because Victor is dancing on their ashes and their father is rolling in his grave.
All thanks to Billy". Jack isn't through with Billy yet who says that he will somehow make this up to his brother; however Jack is still furious as he says that there is no way to possibly make up a half billion dollars. Billy says that he will do anything it takes, Jack replies by telling Billy to pack up his office and get out of the building because they are done, he further says that Billy will always be an Abbott but will never work at Jabot again.
Jack continues to rip into Billy as he says that he doesn't care where he goes, because wherever he goes it will probably blow up. Phyllis looks at her husband in total disbelief and shock as he says that he will not pick up the pieces this time and that he has hurt the family for the last time.
When Billy leaves the room, Phyllis is about to go after him when Jack tells her not to, because whenever Billy needs someone to talk to. It doesn't always have to be her. Ashley announces to Jack and Phyllis that she is stepping down as CEO of Jabot, much to the shock of her brother and sister in law. Phyllis thinks that Ashley's decision is because of her, but she is told that she is not the reason; however Jack can tell that his sister is hiding something but Ashley will not say another word just that her decision is for the best.
Jack and Phyllis try to convince her that she needs to stay at Jabot, but Ashley will not change her mind as she says that she has every confidence that Jack can rebuild Jabot with his wife by his side. Later that night, Jack and Phyllis head to the Athletic Club to have dinner. Jack is worried about Jabot but he appreciates Ashley's faith in them, and Phyllis says that they will get through this together; Jack says that there's no one he'd rather get through this with.
The lovebirds share a romantic moment as Victor and Nikki walk up to them and Victor comments that seeing them together and warms the cockles of his heart Jack and Phyllis are not happy and clearly offended by Victor rubbing the payoff in their faces.
Jack says that all of a sudden he feels like eating at home, Phyllis comments to Victor that it's so great that he has so much of Jabot's money and asks if it's a third of what his own children sued him for and what an amazing bond they share.
Victor replies that he loves Phyllis' fighting spirit as she asks if having Jabot's money is filling the black hole where his heart would be; Nikki comments that she genuinely regrets the way things were handled. Jack thanks Nikki, and says that Jabot will be fine Victor continues rubbing it in by saying that he will find room for some of their former employees, Phyllis replies that Billy and Ashley are already gone from Jabot and no one will thank him for trying to destroy their company.
She finally tells Victor that if he chokes on a piece of steak Jack is doing quite a bit of complaining and wallowing in his worry that he has nobody to help him rebuild Jabot; however Phyllis tells Kyle to leave since Summer's birthday is coming up, she then threatens to leave Jack to brood on his own after he yells at her about how he's going to rebuild Jabot. Phyllis encourages her husband telling him that he can rebuild Jabot and make it greater than before, but Jack begs her not to give him false encouragement and he knows that that is not her style.
She doesn't to false encouragement only honesty. Phyllis then sets her husband straight: he complains that he has no family around to help him After coming up with a battle plan to save Jabot, Phyllis convinces her husband to leave work alone so they can celebrate Christmas and Summer's birthday. Jack agrees and kisses his wife as they leave and head for home. Phyllis lovingly teases her baby girl about having a hangover so early in the morning, and advises her to next time take two aspirin with a big glass of water before bed which works wonders.
Jack wishes his stepdaughter a happy birthday from the bottom of his heart, and Phyllis gives Summer a gift from both her and Jack: a scrapbook of her first 21 years which included pictures, ribbons, newspaper clippings etc. Summer is deeply touched by the gift and can feel the love they put into making it for her. Phyllis finds out from her daughter and Kyle that Billy ruined their fun at the Underground by making an idiot of himself and getting into a fight with Stitch; Jack soon has to leave to meet Ashley and wishes Summer a happy birthday, as Kyle goes to put their order in which gives mother and daughter a chance to bond and chat.
Phyllis asks Summer how school is going since she has one semester under her belt, and what are her thoughts; Summer admits that while she hasn't chosen a major she still has time left to decide. Phyllis advises her daughter that it's important to choose something that excites her which may take time, because why pursue a degree if she's not passionate about what she's doing. After Jack leaves, Phyllis winds up in Billy's room at the club. She wakes him up from his drunken stupor, and tells him that she is there for redemption, not only for him but for Jack as well.
Phyllis says that while Jack isn't drinking or taking pills again, the family is in dire straits and that now is the time the Abbotts need to stick together. Billy tells Phyllis how badly he has messed things up with Victoria: being obnoxious to her at the club, then taking their relationship pouring gasoline on it and setting it on fire, and probably not seeing his kids for Christmas.
Phyllis tell her brother in law that she has survived disasters way worse than mouthing off at a bar and getting drunk, she further says that her life should definitely not be what it is now as it should have been destroyed on many various occasions Phyllis further says that Billy can make it just like she did if He stops this pity party and steps up and makes some changes; Billy comments that he sicced Paragon on the family and promised the family that he would not be that guy who messed up anymore.
However, she reminds Billy that they were in on getting Victor together plus that she wanted to get Victor much more than Billy did. Billy is surprised to hear this and asks "What the hell else did that man do to you? Phyllis finally says that she is going to get everyone in the Abbott family together for the fast approaching holidays of she has to do it single handed.
After celebrating with her daughter. Phyllis winds up at the cabin later that day, and sends Jack a text to to meet her there. Jack arrives wearing an elf's hat talking about Santa's elves arriving as Phyllis bounds into the living room. Jack happily greets his wife with a kiss and suggests lighting a fire and getting cozy with a few blankets and a bottle of wine; however as he begins kissing her neck she says that they can't do that because she has arranged for all of the Abbott family to spend Christmas at the cabin Jack is not happy about having been set up by his wife.
After having an argument with Billy which causes him to storm off, Jack doesn't seem very willing to forgive his brother; however Phyllis gets Jack to see that Billy needs support, and reminds him that he credits her with saving his life when she brought him to the cabin to help him detox from the alcohol and pills. Jack admits that she did save his life, Phyllis then says that this is what Billy needs After bringing Billy back and having another argument, Phyllis asks Jack if since he forgave her then can he not extend the same olive branch to Billy, Phyllis watches as her husband and brother in law finally come to an understanding.
At the Abbott Cabin, Jack and Phyllis are alone at night with a fire burning. The couple snuggle on the couch together as Phyllis says that she loves it when her husband plays the heroic big brother and forgives Billy of his sins; Jack thanks his wife for convincing him to forgive Billy because at one point in his life he was Billy.
Jack further says that he grew out of that foolishness and that Billy needs to do the same thing. Phyllis kisses Jack as she says that she is a woman of many talents and maybe she can convince him to hire Billy back at Jabot. Jack however, cuts her off saying that maybe they can focus on the holidays not work or anything else since they are together alone away from everything and everyone.
Phyllis asks her husband if he means a blanket on the floor in front of the fire, to which Jack answers that this is definitely something they can do which makes her quite happy. Jack finally says that they need to hold on to their own memories since this may be their last Christmas at the cabin. Phyllis tells Jack that there is no way that this will be their last time at the cabin; Jack replies that these are desperate times and they may have to get rid of some of their assets to keep Jabot afloat.
However, Phyllis is not poor by any stretch of the imagination and says that she will buy the cabin herself, but Jack asks why she would to do that since the place is not full of the nicest of memories. Phyllis replies that while there have been some horrible things that have happened at the cabin, many wonderful things happened here; she also says that the cabin means something not only to the Abbotts but to her as well.
Jack tells her that he knows all of this but Jabot means more to him than any real estate available and begins talking about the cutbacks and laying people off; however Phyllis cuts him off telling him to stop worrying because if they play it smart, get clever, creative and stick together then Jabot will be just fine. Phyllis further says that she and Jack know how to roll with the bad times and they also definitely know how to claw their way back to the good ones.
Jack smiles as he tells Phyllis that she makes it sound almost fun; Phyllis replies that she puts the fun in fun and for Jack to stick with her, since they have proven that they can face anything and this is part of anything and that they can do it together.
Later that night, Jack and Phyllis are on a blanket kissing in front of the fireplace when there's a knock at the door. They wonder who it could be, and when the door opens; a big surprise walks in the door: Traci, Kyle, Summer, Abby and Stitch all come in the cabin with decorations, Santa hats etc. Traci tells Jack to listen to her and to listen good: Half a billion dollars comes and goes, but family is forever, the Abbott family is forever. Later everyone has changed into fuzzy pajamas with big cups of cocoa, Jack is sitting on the couch with Traci and Phyllis surrounded by the family minus Billy who is with Victoria and their children, and Ashley who is at the lab.
Jack talks about all the beautiful Abbott faces in the room, some which are by blood and some by marriage but all of them by love; he continues saying that he feels that their family won't be down for long, because what does not kill them will only make them stronger. Jack further says that his dad built Jabot as a source of pride for all of them, and that while Abbotts may come and go.
Jabot will always be there. And the Abbotts will stay strong and united. Jack then makes a toast to family and everyone clinks mugs, enjoys the cocoa, and each couple enjoys a kiss. Prior to the wedding, Phyllis runs into Billy at the club and tells her about his new possible business venture as well as being excited to finally redeem himself with the family and Victoria.
Phyllis wishes him luck as Jack arrives at the club to collect his wife so they can head to the wedding; Billy tells Jack about his new business opportunity as he receives a phone call and agrees to meet them at the wedding.
Jack can tell that something is going on with Billy and senses that Phyllis knows something, however she says nothing. After Abby enters on her father's arm in her beautiful wedding gown and gets to the altar, before the Minister can begin the ceremony, Ashley suddenly falls out of her chair and onto the floor.
Jack and Stitch rush to her side, and after a few minutes she wakes up; however despite Nick calling an ambulance Ashley refuses to go anywhere until her daughter and Stitch are married.
The ceremony proceeds and Abby and Stitch become Mr and Mrs. Ben Rayburn. However Jack won't give him the money without more information about what Billy is getting involved in, but Billy says that he can't give too much information and Jack flat out refuses to give him the money causing Billy to storm off.
Soon after while Abby and Stitch enjoy their first dance, Victoria talks to Jack and Phyllis about Billy and Jack tells her that Billy has been gambling again; Phyllis gets annoyed with Jack for being so blunt with Vicki however Jack tells his wife that she needed to know what Billy has been up to.
Later that night Jack walks behind his wife and tells her Happy New Year; Phyllis replies that while she loves Jack he drives her crazy and he says that the feeling is mutual.
Phyllis turns and faces her husband as she talks about love, insanity and their relationship making perfect sense together, the pair then join the other couples in the room and kiss as the clock strikes midnight and rings in the new year. Billy asks Gil for more time since he's always paid he debts one way or the other; however Gil is not feeling very merciful and says that he wants his money Now! Gil was willing to let Billy go and give him more time, but when he tries to run away Gil has one of his men beat Billy to a pulp.
Gil is not happy that Billy was hit in the face, and as they leave he warns Billy what he wants his money. A short time later, Noah comes into the garage, gets into his car and unknowingly runs Billy over as he tries to back up, he then leaves and doesn't realize what he has done. A few seconds later Marisa comes into the garage as she was running after Noah, she then sees Billy lying on the ground and knows that Noah ran over him; she then hurries to his side and calls At the hospital, Jack asks Phyllis how Billy wound up in this situation; Phyllis replies that it's because he let it get this way, because he: put Billy down in front of Victoria, wouldn't give him the money to gamble away, but Phyllis defends Billy saying that he was making a business investment and Jack doesn't believe that.
Phyllis then says that Jack's disbelief is what has caused Billy to be in the hospital bed which he might not get out of. Victoria overhears them and says that she did exactly what Phyllis is doing to Jack. Making herself the bad guy, and she further says that Billy is in that hospital bed because of the decisions he has made. Phyllis comments that Billy didn't run himself over with the car, and Victoria says that neither she nor Jack was behind the wheel of the car that hit him; however her heart is breaking because he was drinking and gambling, because she wants him with her and their children showing how much he loves her.
Phyllis defends Billy by saying that he made one bet to make money for a business investment so he could be worthy of Victoria and Jack; however Victoria says that that was just another rationalization to call his bookie, and Jack replies that he saw and talked to his brother and if Billy had listened to him then he would have known that he didn't need to prove himself in that way.
Phyllis tells her husband that he expects Billy to play the role of a loser, and Victoria is Victor Newman's daughter and she sees Billy in the same way as her father, and neither one can see that Billy has been trying to change his life and think that everything for him will end in a bad way and if it does it will be because Jack and Victoria pushed him there. After Billy stops breathing and sets off the heart monitors he is finally stabilized. Jack, Phyllis, Traci and Ashley gather and pray for their brother that he will come back to them and survive the surgery.
The next day, Jack and Phyllis are at the police station talking with Paul about the accident and who did this to Billy. Jack says that he wants whomever is responsible to pay for what happened to his brother.
Paul tells him that they are doing everything possible to find whoever ran Billy over, but when Jack asks about the bookie, Paul replies that though Gil admitted to encountering Billy in the garage there is no evidence that he ran him over.
Phyllis comments that since there is no evidence the police really don't have anything; however Paul says that they have forensics and Jack from whom he wants information about what was happening with Billy that led to his present condition. Jack answers that he doesn't know since he's been trying to keep Jabot above water; however Phyllis says that Billy placed a very large bet on a horse race that didn't go his way hence why he owed so much money, but Paul wants to know just what Billy was doing that would make him place such a huge bet and need to win big.
Jack tells Paul that Billy needed money for a business venture, and when he found out that part of the money was for a gambling debt he became furious. Paul needs to know who Billy was working with, but Phyllis and Jack have no idea; however Kevin enters the room and admits that he's the one Billy was working with. That he was very eager to be involved. Phyllis asks if Billy said how he was going to get the money, but Kevin doesn't know and Jack says that this was Billy's way out of this mess, a way to earn back the respect of his family, help Jabot etc.
Phyllis asks if this new information helps Paul, and he says that every detail helps as he excuses himself and leaves the room. Kevin says that he's doing everything he can to find out who was driving the car that hit Billy, but Jack says that he fully expects him to do so but it seem that he owes him more than that.
Jack says that this project of Kevin's had to be pretty amazing for Billy to have been so excited; Kevin replies that the project is cutting edge, and when Phyllis asks exactly what this project is; Kevin says that he can't give a lot of details because he's not the only one involved and it's highly confidential.
Jack asks what Kevin can tell them, and he replies that his project is revolutionary; Mariah adds that Billy wanted in and saw the potential. Jack tells Kevin that he's not the only one with regrets as he and Phyllis leave. Back at the hospital, Jack and Phyllis arrive to a pleasant surprise: Abby and Stitch fresh from their honeymoon.
