At the Athletic Club, Y&R’s Traci Abbott (Beth Maitland) and Jack Abbott (Peter Bergman) discuss Summer Newman (Hunter King) and Kyle Abbott (Michael Mealor), who will move to the poolhouse once she’s feeling better. Traci wonders if Jack will move Kerry Johnson in. Jack admits there are issues and she’s secretive and has lied to him. He gets a call from Billy, who tells him to drop whatever he’s doing – they have a serious problem.
At the Abbott mansion, Kyle looks at his unanswered text to Lola Rosales (Sasha Calle) while Summer dozes on the sofa. She awakens and announces she still wants to go on a honeymoon before returning to work. Kyle says Jabot has a new product launch coming up and reminds her Victor Newman (Eric Braeden) thinks they’ve had a trip.
Summer realizes she needs to come clean with her family. As they chat, Kyle learns Nick Newman (Joshua Morrow) doesn’t know about Summer and Billy. Summer advises Kyle to be loving with her in front of her parents.
Later, Jack meets Billy, who shows him the letter and confirms he called the patent office and another cosmetics company has the patent to Jack of Hearts. Jack learns Kerry either got played by her intern or is in on it. He calls Kerry, who is at Crimson Lights, and invites her over for some wine. Then he tells Billy she’s on her way and he’ll handle this alone.
When Kerry arrives, Jack confronts her about the patent subterfuge. Kerry admits she’s Dominque Carroll. Jack gets a text and she advises him to check it – all will soon be revealed. “It really was spectacular, Jack,” she says.
Y&R’s Abby Newman (Melissa Ordway) visits Lola at Rey Rosales’ (Jordi Vilasuso) place. Lola’s excited she brought bone broth and convinces Abby to try some. Abby admits she came with an ulterior motive. She wants to get Lola back in the kitchen – of her new restaurant. Lola is relieved they don’t blame each other for Arturo Rosales (Jason Canela) and Kyle Abbott’s choices.
Excited, they toast with their broth. Lola reveals she always knew deep down she and Kyle weren’t meant to be and maybe it’s why she didn’t sleep with him. They commiserate over not heeding the signs. They laugh as Abby describes her next, unattractive and uncoordinated, boyfriend. Abby has to leave for Jabot and Lola thanks her for believing in her.
Summer Newman and Kyle Abbott arrive at Nick Newman’s place, where he tells her Nikki Newman (Melody Thomas Scott) would love to see her. Summer gets dizzy and Kyle launches into how brave Summer is, and Nick is floored to hear she was Lola’s liver donor. He remarks that anything could have happened, then realizes she did it for Kyle, who insists he’s committed.
Nick asks if he’s in love with Summer. Kyle says, “I am.” Nick speaks to Kyle alone. Kyle assures him he won’t hurt Summer and says Lola Rosales needed someone different then adds someone who was over Summer.
Kyle receives a text but ignores it as Nick warns if he hurts Summer, he’ll have to deal with him. They drink scotch and Summer reappears. Nick offers to build them home as a wedding present. Summer is ecstatic. Kyle doesn’t know what to say.
Abby stops by Dark Horse and tells Nick she’s devoting herself to her restaurant full-time. Nick says he will miss her. At Crimson Lights, Summer enthuses to Kyle about their long and happy life in their home just as Lola enters the coffee shop.
Back at Jabot, Y&R’s Ted opens a letter and rushes in to show Phyllis that all their recent requests have been rejected by the patent office. Phyllis orders him to find Kerry Johnson. Billy Abbott arrives and Phyllis updates him. Billy says Dominque Carroll is the one who registered the patents to another company and done it under Phyllis’ nose.
Phyllis warns Billy he’d better not be behind this. He says he wouldn’t sabotage his own company for revenge on her. Suddenly they learn someone’s called an emergency board meeting. Lauren Fenmore Baldwin (Tracey E. Bregman) arrives, and Phyllis tells her the meeting text was sent in error. Traci shows up and Billy reappears to say that no one named Dominque has ever been in the lab.
Lauren wants to know what’s going on. The women learn about the patents as Kerry strolls in- she’s glad they all got their texts. Jack Abbott reports Kerry is Dominique. Billy thinks Kerry seems proud of herself. She smirks they made it so easy. Jack says she has a partner. As Billy wonders who it is, Ashley Abbott (Eileen Davidson) appears. And that’s a wrap.
