Maybe Victor is the father.

While I really don't care who Summer's father is, I don't understand the trouble of going though all of this and revealing Nick as being an outright liar if Jack wasn't really the father. Going to all this trouble for a simple red herring (in this case, Nick really being the father after all) would be a waste of time and no dramatic effect. They could have just kept it as is with everyone trusting Nick's word on the results.

I assume Summer and Kyle will be on the verge of screwing when Phyllis, Nick, and Jack barge in telling them the truth. It wouldn't be the first time Y&R's done it.

Uh who said they were gonna go thru all of this and still have Nick be the father? Its pretty obvious he lied and he aint the father but seems he is related to the real Daddy Jack!!! This might ecplain why Nick has been pushed out of NE stuff and the battle is between Hair amd Adam

Friday's US episode was pretty good actually. It almost felt old-school, especially with the build-up to the what exactly Nick knows about Summer's paternity.

And having Traci back is just fabulous. Her being the VOR to Jack... dealing with Phyllis. I wish this was a permanent stay.

I hear Beth is still taping( and taping wise they are taping into July) so who knows.

UH, who said I was stating anything in regards to what you or anyone else were saying? It was a general post by the second sentence.

Is there anything to justify Nick being related to Jack in Nikki or Jack's past? I'm at a loss if that's where they're going.

Summer's paternity story is going to be so good and such good soap opera, if Josh takes his time and do this right...loving it! I love Phack and always & ever believed Jack was Summer's but setup is good a new test is coming....oh my

I can remember some juicy paternity stories that coincidentally enough often broke open around Memorial Day toward the unofficial start of summer, when the teens and college kids get out of school. I wonder if this is what Y&R is aiming for?

I'm guessing she may turn out to be Tyler's love interest, possibly to pacify the Lane crazies, I mean fans...

How is JW basically done if she just bought an LA apartment?

You do realize they had to rewrite the story because Katherine was supposed to recover right?

This is not about any rewrite. JFP recently talked about either getting rid of or passing Kay's set to the next generation.

It is Jill's home and thus telling. JW asked Bell for yime off but I nevwr got the vibe that dhe was being let go. The last regime sucked, and gave Jill weak stories such as the Fenmore junk but it was my feeling that Walton was one of the few vets set to survive as opposed to MTS and ED.

Jess Walton was given a "break" without a contract in place by Maria.

She wasn't asked to come back until JFP came to Y&R, and even then, she agreed to come back part-time, as she lives primarily in Oregon now.

What soap were you watching last year? It was very clear MAB gave no f**ks about Jess. She even had Genie Francis basically taking her spot being involved ins stories where Jill should've been the lead. Like buying Beauty of Nature for example.

I don't think that Y&R is going there, but when Nikki got pregnant with Nick, the timing made it more likely that he was Jack's son. However, Bell just ignored that likelihood and decided that he was Victor's.

Thanks for explaining because I keep hearing conflicting arguments about that.

It looks as if that new character that interacts with Lily and Cane is played by Mishael Morgan. Her imdb page says she was born in Trinidad (where's frequentsoapfan?) and her birthday is days away from mine (yay!).

I don't know what Y&R is going to do with all these new characters, though, they seem to be having difficulty managing the ones they have.

I'm also wondering if this character could be related to Gus and therefore Tyler and Leslie somehow.

So were we supposed to think that those clips of Nick talking about how the DNA test said he was the father were supposed to be almost twenty years ago?
