Judge Mathis stops looking at Spencer Walsh and down at his gold Rolex and then looks at Spencer again.

Mathis: Sir are you ready to proceed, we don’t have all damn day?

Spencer is in a daze, tuning out the Judge. The only thing on his mind are Victors words on instant replay. “”Spencer: You’re a joke Newman.

Victor; no my friend You are. You see I know about your past.

Spencer; My past?

Victor: Your past with the lovely Leslie here.

Leslie: Excuse me?

Spencer: My past with Leslie?

Victor: Allow me.” Victor pulls out the sexy photos of Leslie and Spencer to see. Then Victor points to a picture with Leslie and Spencer together.

Leslie: What the hell is this Avery!?

Spencer: You’ve got to be kidding me. SO now you’re going to black mail the DA with some phony photos? Now we can add these to the stack of charges that already face you.

Victor: Mr. Welsh I assure these are not fake. In fact these are so real that you two had a child together. Leslie gave up for adoption to pursue her high powered legal career.

Spencer: WHAT!? “ He says looking at Leslie in fact now confirming what Victors is saying is true.

Leslie: Why? How did this all come about? What did I do? “ She then looks at Avery but Avery can’t look her friend in the face.

Victor: No one will best me. Spencer I f want you two want to keep this nasty secret I suggest you drop this case against me. “”

Spencer looks at Victor and Avery and Victor is looking back at him sternly. The courtroom begins to fill up and everyone notices something is very off. Judge Mathis pounds his gavel to get Spencer’s attention.

Mathis: Are you on drugs? Mr. Walsh get with it sir.

Spencer thinks of Leslie and his daughter. His life seems to flash before his eyes. He knows everything, his life, his career his reputation and now potentially his family is on the line by the next words he utters. He closes his eyes, takes a deep breath and looks at Mathis. He then looks Victor dead in his eyes

“Yes your honor, I’m ready to proceed with this trial!”

Avery is stunned. She looks at Victor who his frozen in is nature, looking dead at Spencer. The two have a stare down as Spencer approaches his side of the courtroom

Avery: whisper to Victor: So now what?

Victor: Spencer Walsh is going to pay for what he just did I’m going to crush him.

Avery: Was this your trump card?

Victor: Indeed this is was my October surprise. Now I have nothing.” Victor has a tear form in his eye. Avery is just flabbergasted.

Spencer: Your Honor the state calls Billy Abbot to the stand.

Outside the courtroom Rafe walks up to Leslie

Rafe: I’m sorry I’m too late, did Mathis start back up again?

Leslie: I don’t know Rafe and I really don’t care.

Rafe: Les what’s the matter? I can tell you’ve been crying.

Leslie: Victor Newman is the problem. Victor Newman is a rotten ass Bastard and I hope he’s given the death penalty.

Rafe: What? I don’t understand. What happened during our recess?

Leslie; Ask that back stabbing bitch Avery!” Leslie then storms off. Rafe has a look of confusion on his face as he slips back into court.

The Tack House. Phyllis is finishing up a cup of coffee. Nick sits on the sofa next to her

Phyllis: Is Summer ok?

Nick: Yes, she’s glad to have her mom back here.

Phyllis: Is the sitter on her way?

Nick: Yes Rosa will be here in a bit.

Phyllis: So how is your dad’s trial going?

Nick: It’s not good at all. I think this is really it for him. I think it’s all really all caught up to him.

Phyllis: I hope Ronan can catch up to this stalker.

Nick: I doubt that will happen with Dumbnan on the case.

Phyllis: Don’t be like that Nick

Nick: Don’t defend your lover to me Phyllis. Let’s not even get into it. You here your safe and I’m not going to let anything happen to you again. I’m going to find this stalker person my self.

Phyllis : What do you mean?

Nick: I got my own team searching around and investigating. But any way enough with that. So have you heard from Olivia regarding on restoring your eyesight?

Phyllis: No that’s what I’m going to work on now soon as this trial is done. I’m gonna get my eye sight back so I can see for my self who’s been stalking me. I want to look the person in the eye who tried to kill me I know I know that voice. That voice that pushed me down the hill.

Nick: Who ever it was is a truly sick and dangerous person. Sophia has died from it.

Back at Court

Billy has been sworn in. Spencer approaches the witness stand.

Spencer: Mr. Abbott, you claim that Victor here,” he pauses and turns around and looks at Victor and even pointing at him, sending him a message his black mail didn’t work and he’s going head strong against The Great Victor Newman. “ had you kidnapped then blackmailed you to stay away from Genoa City.

Billy: That’s right. The old man hates my family and especially me. He wants nothing more than to destroy my relationship with his daughter Victoria. So he had me kidnapped and held me hostage until I agreed to leave his daughter.

Spencer: So your telling us Victor Newman kidnapped you to get his way?

Billy: Not only that, he knew my daughter was sick with a bout of leukemia. He knowingly kept my sick little girl from her dad just to get his way.” Mathis and the court room are outraged. Mathis looks at Victor. Then at Avery

“ Will your client be taking the stand. There’s been some nasty allegations mounted against him. Is he going to speak up for himself?

Avery: Your honor this unorthodox.

Mathis: And this is my courtroom ma’am.

Spencer smiles at Victor: Your witness council

Avery looks at Victor, she whispers in his ear

“How do I counter this?”

Victor looks at her.” I don’t know that’s what I pay you to do.”

Avery: This is bad.” Avery stands up “ No questions your honor.” Everyone is stunned. Victor appears to be going down with out a fight.

Mathis : Wow. This is not looking good for you sir. Call your next witness Mr. Walsh

Spencer: The State Calls Michael Baldwin.

Leslie walks into her apartment. She takes her trench coat off throws her brief case on the couch and pours herself a drink. She then gets a knock on her door.

Leslie: GO away!

Malcolm: What you mean go away it’s me!?

Leslie: Go away Malcolm. I’m not in the mood and I don’t want to see you.

Malcolm: What you mean you not in the mood Les open this damn door or I’ll break it down!?

Les walks over to her door and opens it. Malcolm sees a drink in her hand and can tell she is distraught and has been crying. Her eyeliner has ran down her face.

Malcolm walks in and holds her “Baby what’s wrong?”

Les pushes Malcolm off her ‘ Don’t touch me!”

Malcolm: Baby what is the matter? What aren’t you at Victor’s trial? Why are you drinking this time of the day?

Leslie: What is it with you all these questions? Aren’t you supposed to be mourning Sophia? All of a sudden you’re worried about me. Malcolm just get the hell out.

Malcolm: Wow Les that was a low blow. Even for you. What’s wrong girl tell me. I’m yo man.

Leslie is fighting back tears as she thinks of her slutty past coming to light. A sluttty past that includes a daughter right here in Genoa City.

“ Malcolm I can’t. please leave me alone. “

Malcolm: I love you. I’m here for you. Talk to me. What’s going on?

Leslie: GET THE HELL OUT MALCOLM! I told you already. Get the hell out.!” She tries to push him out the door.

Malcolm: I see how it is. You keeping secrets now. You’re gonna shut me out. Why because I’m in mourning over Sophia’ death. I’ll leave Les. Maybe you can calm down and come back to reality. “ He leaves and she slams the door behind him. She lets go an explosion of tears a she sinks to the floor thinking of the daughter she gave up.

Back at the courtroom Victor Newman’s wing man Michael Baldwin has just been sworn in. Everyone wonders in the courtroom how Michael is going to testify but no one one is more interested than Victor and Lauren. The real question will be is Michael going to incriminate himself, that’s the question Victor wants to know. Victor knows Michael did a lot of illegal things on his behalf. So in order to testify against him he will incriminate himself. Victor whispers to Avery : Let the games begin… He then winks at her
