Did I say I would have them [!@#$%^&*] in the hospital chapel, lol? Maybe "clinch" was the wrong word but [!@#$%^&*] was not what I meant. Please, I'm not JER. Of course, if JER were writing it, he'd have Ashland and Nikki literally screwing on top of Victoria's corpse. But that's neither here nor there. Thank you!

Tell that to Ron Carlivati!

Dear God! They really blew her ass up!

Better yet...? Building off @Darn's suggestion: Victoria discovers Ashland and Nikki in bed together. After a bitter confrontation with her husband and mother, Victoria runs off. However, she's so overcome by the image of Ashland and Nikki together, she loses control of her car and crashes. (Whether the crash was deliberate on her part could be left up to the audience to debate.) At the hospital, a non-responsive Victoria is placed on a respirator, as her family and friends are informed about the accident. Eventually, everyone is informed that Victoria is brain-dead (shut up!) and not likely to breathe on her own again. Nikki begs Ashland not to turn off the respirator; however, Ashland believes Victoria wouldn't want to be kept in such condition for the rest of her life. He agrees to have the machines turned off; they are; Victoria doesn't breathe on her own; she's pronounced dead. Afterwards, Ashland and Nikki run into each other at the hospital chapel. Both are feeling extremely guilty over how their actions have led to this moment. Nevertheless, Nikki lashes into Ashland, believing that Victoria could have recovered had she been given more time. But...even as Ashland and Nikki's argument grows ever more heated, with Ashland defending his decision to end his wife's life and Nikki accusing Ashland of killing Victoria in order keep their affair quiet, the sexual tension between them mounts, culminating in a kiss and passionate clinch (...in the chapel...with Victoria's body not even cold). Unfortunately, for Ashland and Nikki, Victor has observed the entire scene from the back of the chapel...and that's when hell REALLY starts to break loose.

You're right, Victoria wouldn't do that. She's not clever enough (anymore).

Pretty much.

Too bad (s)he'll have those three sixes on the back of the head!

Again, if only he were a Kevin Bancroft recast. I want Ashland to die of a heart attack while having sex with Victoria. That's it. That's the story.

If only RN were coming aboard as a Kevin Bancroft recast....

He (still) looks good. But I still don't buy him and AH's Victoria as a couple.

They really have done a number on Julie, haven't they? Sigh. DAYS is such miserable trash.

I say this with all the love I have within me: there is no part in that saga that Janet is right for. None. Not even Mary Agnes/"Squeak."

Welp. She's toast.

We'll probably find out Clyde once made a deal with the devil. But I still say the devil's gonna have to take a number and go to the back of the line, because the aliens will want that baby first!

There are times when I do suspect Bill Bell never intended for Victor and Nikki to go beyond the "My Fair Lady" stuff. It's just that...well...somehow, it just took off.

On top of everything else, the devil is against miscegenation, lol.

Agree.

Same. It's cliched as hell, but it works.

You know, Ali, it's really hard to miss you when you WON'T STAY GONE.

Adam/Nicole is one soap pairing I wish I were able to see. Their story sounded fantastic to me as a kid who wanted to get into the business so badly.

Disagree. I still remember some of his stuff from GL. It was awful.

Agree.

THIS.

And then, in the most outrageous plot twist ever, we learn Allison Perkins was herself switched at birth with Megan Gordon, making her (Allison) Viki's biological daughter! LOL!

The more I think about it, the more I think you can't underestimate the effect that the Jacksons' overall notoriety had on Janet's career decline. Between Michael and his problems, LaToya and her problems and Katherine and Joe and their problems, no Jackson was really safe; and unfortunately, Janet became almost guilty by association.
