Sage tells Chelsea she is relieved to be out of the marriage – “The Gabe that you have come to know was not the man I knew he is very charming and very persuasive. I am telling you this because I like you, because I think you are a good person and I want you to think long and hard before you make any life changing decisions. Now that these papers are signed Gabe can pursue you without any obstacles and Lord knows he is a force to be reckoned with.” Sage leaves…

You’re the only woman who matters to me.”

Chelsea tells Gabe/Adam Billy and her are still getting married and as a matter of fact they are getting married ASAP! Gabe/Adam is shocked!

Sharon tells them it is not her necklace and she has no idea how it got in her trunk. Noah opens the door and says, “That is Courtney’s necklace she had it on her neck the night she died what are you doing with it?”

Abby feels bad for Noah. Stitch agrees he is being pulled in many directions. Abby tells Stitch she has to ask him a question about why he decided to stay on protecting her.

Summer tells Kyle he is amazing and it is easy to be with him. He is the perfect escape. BUT, Austin died not that long ago and now they are together in every sort of way and she thinks they moved too fast.

Gabe/Adam wants to know how she could marry Billy Abbott. He reminder her it is the rest of the life …. Chelsea says. “I did not tell you the truth when I showed up and kissed you I saw Billy kissing Victoria and I was very angry and very hurt and I was just looking for a way to lash out at him…” Gabe/Adam interupts, “you found me.” Chelsea goes on, “But he is not going back to her and it was a mistake just like throwing myself at you was a mistake…” Gabe/Adam pleads, “It did not feel like a mistake that is undeniable and that is why you are crying right now you can feel it, right?” Chelsea responds, “I like you as a friend and you want it to be more but I cannot give it to you because I don’t feel the same way, I was just hurt and I was acting out so I used you that is all it was, I’m sorry I think it is best for the both of us if we pretend it never happened.” Gabe/Adam begs, “Please do not go?” Chelsea opens the door of Gabe/Adam’s apartment and Billy is there.

Billy sees them and says, “What is going on and what are you doing at Gabe’s?”

Abby says to Stitch, “I am wondering how Victoria feels about you still protecting me” Stitch says, “Maybe she thinks I am inventing reasons to stay with you.” Abby responds, “That is crazy” and Stitch replies, “MAYBE IT IS NOT!”

Kyle says the last thing he wants it to push Summer into anything she does not want but he is always there for her. He kissed her on the forehead and gets up to leave. Summer says, “Don’t go, I just wants to slow thinks down, I do need you.”

Sage promises Nick she will pay him back. Nick does not doubt it and is glad he was in the right place at the right time. Nick tells Sage she is not complicating his life she is the bright light in his darkness and could not get through it without her. Nick kisses her.

Chelsea tells Billy she wanted Gabe to hear from her they were moving up their wedding date. Billy says, “Let me guess he tried to change your mind?” Chelsea says, “No he didn’t!” Billy responds, “Some people just don’t know when to back off do they? Still think you can take her from me don’t you?” Gabe/Adam says, “You know what I did? I told her the truth, it would be a mistake marrying you.” Chelsea says, “I am hoping you will accept it now and move forward.” Gabe/Adam looks at them both and shuts the door.

Billy tells Chelsea, “Look i am glad you shut the guy down but I really don’t want to talk about him anymore especially when we have a wedding to plan.” Billy kisses Chelsea.

Gabe/Adam is in his apartment he is thinking and he does not look pleased.

Noah tells Sharon to answer him, he wants to know where Sharon got Courtney’s necklace. Michael tells Noah they just found it. Dylan says in the trunk of Sharon’s car. Sharon says, “Noah I swear I had nothing to do with this I had no idea this was Courtney’s.” Dylan says, “Someone planted it to frame Sharon.” Noah says, “I got that necklace for my fiancé so she could wear it for our wedding and I have been looking everywhere for it so she could wear it at her funeral and it shows up here in your hands. Were you going to get rid of it?”

Dylan tells Noah if the police know where we found the necklace and Noah says they would have even more evidence that Sharon is the killer, what else are they suppose to think when she has the jewelry Courtney was wearing when she was killed?

Sharon is upset and says, “You know I did not kill her and Noah says, “I don’t know anything, God Mom I want to believe you but every damn thing seems to be pointing back at you.”

Someone knocks at the door. It is the police with a warrant to search the premises … Sharon says, “NOAH PLEASE….”

So ‘The Young and the Restless’ fans did you think Chelsea was going to reject Gabe/Adam?  Is Chelsea going to marry Billy and then realize she made a mistake or will Billy realize he loves Victoria?  What do you think of Stitch admitting he had feelings for Abby?
